    • My defence was standard no paperwork:   1.The Defendant contends that the particulars of claim are generic in nature. The Defendant accordingly sets out its case below and relies on CPR r 16.5 (3) in relation to any particular allegation to which a specific response has not been made. 2. Paragraph 1 is noted. The Defendant has had a contractual relationship with MBNA Limited in the past. The Defendant does not recognise the reference number provided by the claimant within its particulars and has sought verification from the claimant who is yet to comply with requests for further information. 3. Paragraph 2 is denied. The Defendant maintains that a default notice was never received. The Claimant is put to strict proof to that a default notice was issued by MBNA Limited and received by the Defendant. 4. Paragraph 3 is denied. The Defendant is unaware of any legal assignment or Notice of Assignment allegedly served from either the Claimant or MBNA Limited. 5. On the 02/01/2023 the Defendant requested information pertaining to this claim by way of a CCA 1974 Section 78 request. The claimant is yet to respond to this request. On the 19/05/2023 a CPR 31.14 request was sent to Kearns who is yet to respond. To date, 02/06/2023, no documentation has been received. The claimant remains in default of my section 78 request. 6. It is therefore denied with regards to the Defendant owing any monies to the Claimant, the Claimant has failed to provide any evidence of proof of assignment being sent/ agreement/ balance/ breach or termination requested by CPR 31.14, therefore the Claimant is put to strict proof to: (a) show how the Defendant entered into an agreement; and (b) show and evidence the nature of breach and service of a default notice pursuant to Section 87(1) CCA1974 (c) show how the claimant has reached the amount claimed for; and (d) show how the Claimant has the legal right, either under statute or equity to issue a claim; 7. As per Civil Procedure Rule 16.5(4), it is expected that the Claimant prove the allegation that the money is owed. 8. On the alternative, as the Claimant is an assignee of a debt, it is denied that the Claimant has the right to lay a claim due to contraventions of Section 136 of the Law of Property Act and Section 82A of the consumer credit Act 1974. 9. By reasons of the facts and matters set out above, it is denied that the Claimant is entitled to the relief claimed or any relief.
    • Monika the first four pages of the Private parking section have at least 12 of our members who have also been caught out on this scam site. That's around one quarter of all our current complaints. Usually we might expect two current complaints for the same park within 4 pages.  So you are in good company and have done well in appealing to McDonalds in an effort to resolve the matter without having  paid such a bunch of rogues. Most people blindly pay up. Met . Starbucks and McDonalds  are well aware of the situation and seem unwilling to make it easier for motorists to avoid getting caught. For instance, instead of photographing you, if they were honest and wanted you  to continue using their services again, they would have said "Excuse me but if you are going to go to Mc donalds from here, it will cost you £100." But no they kett quiet and are now pursuing you for probably a lot more than £100 now. They also know thst  they cannot charge anything over the amount stated on the car park signs. Their claims for £160 or £170 are unlawful yet so many pay that to avoid going to Court. When the truth is that Met are unlikely to take them to Court since they know they will lose. The PCNs are issued on airport land which is covered by Byelaws so only the driver can be pursued, not the keeper. But they keep writing to you as they do not know who was driving unless you gave it away when you appealed. Even if they know you were driving they should still lose in Court for several reasons. The reason we ask you to fill out our questionnaire is to help you if MET do decide to take you to Court in the end. Each member who visited the park may well have different experiences while there which can help when filling out a Witness statement [we will help you with that if it comes to it.] if you have thrown away the original PCN  and other paperwork you obviously haven't got a jerbil or a guinea pig as their paper makes great litter boxes for them.🙂 You can send an SAR to them to get all the information Met have on you to date. Though if you have been to several sites already, you may have done that by now. In the meantime, you will be being bombarded by illiterate debt collectors and sixth rate solicitors all threatening you with ever increasing amounts as well as being hung drawn and quartered. Their letters can all be safely ignored. On the odd chance that you may get a Letter of Claim from them just come back to us and we will get you to send a snotty letter back to them so that they know you are not happy, don't care a fig for their threats and will see them off in Court if they finally have the guts to carry on. If you do have the original PCN could you please post it up, carefully removing your name. address and car registration number but including dates and times. If not just click on the SAR to take you to the form to send to Met.

    • Hello CAG Team, I'm adding the contents of the claim to this thread, but wanted to open the thread with an urgent question: Do I have to supply a WS for a claim with a court date that states " at the hearing the court will consider allocation and, time permitting, give an early neutral evaluation of the case" ? letter is an N24 General Form of Judgement or Order, if so, then I've messed up again. Court date 25 May 2024 The letter from court does not state (like the other claims I have) that I must provide WS within 28 days.. BUT I have recently received a WS from Link for it! making me think I do need to!??

    • Hello,

      On 15/1/24 booked appointment with Big Motoring World (BMW) to view a mini on 17/1/24 at 8pm at their Enfield dealership.  

      Car was dirty and test drive was two circuits of roundabout on entry to the showroom.  Was p/x my car and rushed by sales exec and a manager into buying the mini and a 3yr warranty that night, sale all wrapped up by 10pm.  They strongly advised me taking warranty out on car that age (2017) and confirmed it was honoured at over 500 UK registered garages.

      The next day, 18/1/24 noticed amber engine warning light on dashboard , immediately phoned BMW aftercare team to ask for it to be investigated asap at nearest garage to me. After 15 mins on hold was told only their 5 service centres across the UK can deal with car issues with earliest date for inspection in March ! Said I’m not happy with that given what sales team advised or driving car. Told an amber warning light only advisory so to drive with caution and call back when light goes red.

      I’m not happy to do this, drive the car or with the after care experience (a sign of further stresses to come) so want a refund and to return the car asap.

      Please can you advise what I need to do today to get this done. 
       

      Many thanks

    • We have finally managed to obtain the transcript of this case.

      The judge's reasoning is very useful and will certainly be helpful in any other cases relating to third-party rights where the customer has contracted with the courier company by using a broker.
      This is generally speaking the problem with using PackLink who are domiciled in Spain and very conveniently out of reach of the British justice system.

      Frankly I don't think that is any accident.

      One of the points that the judge made was that the customers contract with the broker specifically refers to the courier – and it is clear that the courier knows that they are acting for a third party. There is no need to name the third party. They just have to be recognisably part of a class of person – such as a sender or a recipient of the parcel.

      Please note that a recent case against UPS failed on exactly the same issue with the judge held that the Contracts (Rights of Third Parties) Act 1999 did not apply.

      We will be getting that transcript very soon. We will look at it and we will understand how the judge made such catastrophic mistakes. It was a very poor judgement.
      We will be recommending that people do include this adverse judgement in their bundle so that when they go to county court the judge will see both sides and see the arguments against this adverse judgement.
      Also, we will be to demonstrate to the judge that we are fair-minded and that we don't mind bringing everything to the attention of the judge even if it is against our own interests.
      This is good ethical practice.

      It would be very nice if the parcel delivery companies – including EVRi – practised this kind of thing as well.

Hi,

 

Wonder if anyone can help me. I sent a ppi claim form to Santander who have now taken over Debenham store cards, in July and received their so called 'final' response on Saturday. I was making my misselling claim on the grounds that I had a previous illness which I now know I would never have been covered for.

 

Here is an extract:( I haven't scanned the doc yet so have to type out)

 

"I can confirm Account cover insurance was set up on your account on 15th March 2001 after a discussion that took place on the telephone with our telemarketing department... The policy applied to your account was Account Cover Insurance and comprised of price, purchase and payment protection. Our telemarketing department sold this policy to you and one of our advisers explained the main features of the product and price. The insurance was added to your account because you chose to do so. However you had an opportunity to change your mind as once you decided to take the product a policy summary and policy document was mailed to you for your review... I understand that you believe that Account Cover Insurance does not cover you as you had a pre existing medical condition at the time of opening. However, please understand that having an illness prior to the cover being taken out does not exclude you from the insurance; this simply may mean that you cannot claim for this condition in the future...I can confirm that Account Cover Insurance was cancelled on 26 August 2011..."

 

I am perplexed as I cannot remember the detail of such a conversation with a telesales person since it was so long ago. Do you think this is what seems to me to be tactics to fob me off? They did not provide me with any other evidence such as signed agreements to the effect that I wanted the ppi. Can I request copies of the agreements and take this to the FOS? I have so many questions I want to ask them based on this response.

 

I would really appreciate some guidance as to what to do next. Thanks in advance!

Hi

 

Some of these institutions use the "telephone" conversation ploy to fob you off.

 

If it were me I would send a Subject Access Request (SAR) to Santander. There is a template SAR in teh CAG library, the link to which is at the top of every CAG page in green. This should yield ALL the inormation they hold on you, iincluding statements/transaction history. There is a fee payable of £10 and they will have 40 days to comply. Make sure you put emphasis on the fact that you want ALL information they hold.

 

Let's see if they put a transcript of that phone call in the package but if not you can still take this claim forward.

 

From the information that comes back you can prepare a schedule of claim to quantify your claim.

 

Have a look at the PDF files on the fos website if you haven't already done so.

 

You can then either pass it to fos or you can sue in court.

 

Do the SAR first though.

 

Regards

 

ims

Hi Jade

 

Welcome to CAG

 

The guys will be happy to advise as soon as they are available.

 

What you need to do is send them a SAR Request with a Postal Order for £10, send it Recorded. They have 40 days to respond. If you think anything is missing send them a chase letter. Once you've got all the Data they hold on your account you can ask the right questions.

 

SAR Template in the library on this site.

I am about to do a SAR to Santander re my debenhams (as well as a few other cards I had with them-ge capital who they bought out seem to have done almost every store card on the high street lol). But I remember getting a card in the store, the staff member rushed through the personal details and did the application for me then told me where to sign. I believe it is likely PPI was on and reckon this was added by the sales assistant at the time I certainly never had any calls from them-until I fell behind on payments.

I doubt the call ever took place, will watch your thread as we are at the same point. Good Luck

Hi Everyone,

 

Thank you so much for all your responses, your advice is much appreciated. I had a feeling that it was a ploy since the tone of the letter was very contradictory in parts. I know the call never took place because I remember the application being done in the store, now I've had time to think about it. Anyway, I will look at the documents suggested and continue my claim. I am just so angry with the way the banks have been ripping us off for years. I am determined to succeed and a least get something back from my ppi claim, not just from Santander but from others like Audi ( they've said I never had PPI when I have all the documents to say that I had ppi, for one of two cars I bought from them - that's another story but no doubt the same applies). Will keep you posted.

 

A tremendous thank you!

Hi Again,

 

It seems like a while since I was here. So here is an update. I sent off the SAR to Santander after my previous post and I am still waiting to see if they include a transcript of my alleged phone conversation with them requesting the ppi. I also sent the SAR to Audi who had previously refused my PPI claim saying I did not have ppi with them. It was an odd thing since I managed to find all the paperwork, account numbers etc. Anyway, I have received all their documents and find that I did have PPI with them after all. I'm not not so sure how to reply to them. I would appreciate being pointed in the right direction.Will I need to resubmit my claim form to them?

 

I also sent a claim to MBNA whose Virgin credit card I applied for online. Although it was about five years ago I remember that the application kept crashing and would not untick the ppi. I phoned their technical support at the time and spoke to someone about the fact that the form kept crashing. It was about two weeks before I got the card but forgot to raise the issue again about the ppi. Since I have started the claim process with them they have subsequently sent me a copy of the online form simply saying I requested it. I only received this at the weekend so haven't had time to respond to it yet. Yet another to get me all fired up.

 

Thanks again in advance for your help!

Hi,

 

Been in hospital for a while since last post. Have had final response from Santander re Debenhams ppi. Taken to the Ombudsman. However, since card was taken out before Santander took over, I need to find out who the original underwriters were in 2001. Does anyone know how or where I can find this information? I have absolutely no paperwork from that period. Thanks!

Hi,

I am quite a way ahead of you in claiming back ppi on a Debenhams store card and these people are proving the hardest to deal with. My card was taken out in 1994, rushed application, crosses put by salesperson where I had to fill in, no ppi requested. Apparently I took out the insurance during a telephone conversation - no transcript available (no surprise there!!).

 

Anyway to the subject of underwriter, mine was Financial Insurance Group (Genworth Financial) and the fos are pursuing them, a long drawn out process due to the legalities and the fos have a number of cases and are considering a test case in the first instance.

 

The address for Genworth is:

PO Box 140

Building 11

Chiswick Park

Chiswick High Road

London W4 5QX

Tel: 0500 055 6548 (number for Senior Associate, Consumer Affairs)

 

If Santander dont produce the insurance document, you could ring Genworth (even if Santander do, I would ring them anyway as the policy document differs from the one Santander sent me!) I spoke to a nice lady there who was very helpful, I should have asked if she had details of premiums paid as Santander cant (or wont) supply them back as far as 1994. Thats another thing to put on my to do list!!

 

Hope this info has been helpful, have a read through my thread http://www.consumeractiongroup.co.uk/forum/showthread.php?202232-Ge-Money-(debenhams)-Ppi

This will show you my battle so far with them. Any other questions, please ask, I am more than willing to help in any way I can

Hi,

 

Thank you very much for your responses. I am on the mend but quite weary from all of the nonsense being dealt out by the banks over ppi. I am still determined to get back what I am owed. I have sent the SAR and the questionnaire to Santander and have received their final response. Have taken it to the FOS who have told me that Santander cannot give me a final response because they didn't own Debenhams in 2001 as it was GE money when I took out the card. This is why I am looking for the underwriters. Once I have this I need to pass it onto the FOS.

 

Tink660, thanks for the contact address as I am sure they are the ones I need to to confirm , so I will call them tomorrow to find out if they were the underwriters for mine. like you Santader also told me that I requested the ppi via their telesales dept, no transcript produced with the SARs. As you suggest I will read your threads also.

 

Will keep you posted!:-)

Hi Again,

 

Been looking through my SARs info sent by Santander and I notice they have sent me someone else's credit application. Plus the account notes etc are from 2005 and not from 2001 when I took out the card. They have also sent the Santander current agreement T&C and not the original GE Money. Do you think I should bother contacting them again about this or just leave it to the FOS? Like I said earlier they say this is their final decision.

 

Thanks again

Hi

I am a liitle further on than you with my claim which is now with the underwriter. After I contacted FOS , they advised that I send the questionnaire to the underwriter, who hasn't responded yet.

I rang Santander and asked who the underwriter was and they gave me the name and address, which is the same one on the policy.

They are Financial Insurance Co Ltd , but I believe they are also known as Genworth. My cards were taken out in 2000 and 2001 ( HOF)

Have a look at my thread - sorry I still haven''t managed to work out how to put the link in.

Also there will probably be more than one reason to claim misselling than the one you raised with Santander , have a read around the FSA guidlines there is a whole list.

Good luck
