    Default Is this MINT agreement enforceable?

    I still owe about £220 on this card to close it down, however due to being made redundanticon I am paying about £5 a month off on it and this will take forever. Most of this consists of £12 charges in 2007. At the moment there is no arrears on the card.
    Can someone please clarify whether the agrement below is enforceable? Thanks.

    I would say that the form by itself is unenforceable as it lacks the prescribed terms. However if they were able to produce the other side, that may well be a different matter. It would appear the quality of copy may suggest an actual photocopy of the original rather than a microfiche one, in which case the original may well be produced. Although I am led to believe that whatever a creditor supplies in relation to a S78 request is/are the only documents they can rely on in court, this from s172:

    Section 172 states:

    172 Statements by creditor or owner to be binding

    (1) A statement by a creditor or owner is binding on him if given under—

    section 77(1),

    section 78(1),

    section 79(1),

    section 97(1),

    section 107(1)(c),

    section 108(1)(c), or

    section 109(1)(c).


    This means that the documents you have been sent are the only documents the bank may now rely on in any attempt at enforcing these alleged debts. Any further documentation they may present is irrelevant as they did not provide it in response to your lawful request.
    Advice given is IMHO and should not be taken as fact, hopefully someone else will contributeicon to your thread.

    hanks. Just annoying that there is so little left to pay but too much for me to pay off in the short term especially when it is mainly there charges.

    if you challenge the validity of the agreement,IMO the account is in disputeicon and they cannot add any further default charges!? somebody else may have a view on this.

    Lacks prescribed terms as said before, so if thats all they have, I would dispute the agreement.
