    • Update 15th March the eviction notice period expired, and I paid my next month rent along with sending them the message discussed above. After a short while they just emailed me back this dry phrase "Thank you for your email." In two weeks' time I'm gonna need to pay the rent again, and I have such a feeling that shortly after that date the contracts will be exchanged and all the payments will be made.  Now my main concern is, if possible, not to end up paying rent after I move out.  
    • they cant 'take away' anything, what ever makes you believe that?  dx  
    • The text on the N1SDT Claim Form 1.The claim is for breaching the terms and conditions set on private land. 2. The defendant's vehicle, NumberPlate, was identified in the Leeds Bradford Airport Roadways on the 28/07/2023 in breach of the advertised terms and conditions; namely Stopping in a zone where stopping is prohibited 3.At all material times the Defendant was the registered keeper and/or driver. 4. The terms and conditions upon  entering private land were clearly displayed at the entrance and in prominent locations 5. The sign was the offer and the act of entering private land was the acceptance of the offer hereby entering into a contract by conduct. 6.The signs specifically detail the terms and conditions and the consequences of failure to comply,  namely a parking charge notice will be issued, and the Defendant has failed to settle the outstanding liability. 7.The claimant seeks the recovery of the parking charge notice, contractual costs and interest.   This is what I am thinking of for the wording of my defence The Defendant contends that the particulars of claim are vague and are generic in nature which fails to comply with CPR 16.4. 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. 1. Paragraph 1 is denied. It is denied that the Defendant ever entered into a contract to breach any terms and conditions of the stated private land. 2. Paragraph 2 and 4 are denied. As held by the Upper Tax Tribunal in Vehicle Control Services Limited v HMRC [2012] UKUT 129 (TCC), any contract requires offer and acceptance. The Claimant was only contracted to provide car park management services and is not capable of entering into a contract with the Defendant on its own account, as the car park is owned by and the terms of entry set by the landowner. 3. It is admitted that Defendant is the recorded keeper of the vehicle. 4.  Paragraph 6 is denied the claimant has yet to evidence that their contract with the landowner supersedes  Leeds Bradford airport byelaws. Further it is denied that the Claimant’s signage is capable of creating a legally binding contract. 5. Paragraph 7 is denied, there are no contractual costs and interest cannot be accrued on a speculative charge.   I'm not sure whether point 4 is correct as I think this side road is not covered by byelaws? Any other suggestions/corrections would be appreciated.

    • 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.

Hiya,

 

I am currently paying Lowell for a defaulted vanquish credit card debt.

(No issues there really, I owe it and pay less to Lowell than vanquish with no interest)

 

However Lowell have now decided to add that I am in default with them via the credit reference agencies.

(I have nothing relating to the original Vanquis default on any CRA file)

 

Can Lowell say that I am in default with them even though I pay and am up to date when actually I was in default with Vanquis ?

 

Hope that makes sense?

 

Cheers

has this ever shown on your CRA file?

 

you say its not there now?

 

how old is this debt

when did you take the card out?

 

what made you start to pay lowlife..you fell for the threat-o-grams?

 

have you ever sent them a CCA request to check they have the LEGAL RIGHT to demand money from you?

 

something smells here

If vanquis registered a default then all lowell can do is substitute their name .

 

Do you have a notice of assignment to lowell?

 

Did they send you a default notice or intention to file a default?

 

What is the default date on your credit file?

Any opinion I give is from personal experience .

Thanks for the quick replies,

 

I originally defaulted with Vanquis about 12 months ago, But there has never been ANY record of my account with them with the CRA's

 

(I started with a standard Vanquis card then was upgraded to a Gold Card- at this time the original card shows as settled and then nothing else from Vanquis has ever shown on the CRA's reports)

 

I decided to start paying Lowell about 4 months ago (through choice, I owe the money so should pay it back somehow) and a default has appeared on my CRA for May of 2013.

 

 

Yes I did have a letter of assignment etc and it does relate correctly to what I owed vanquis.

 

Cheers

I knew I'd ready something somewhere (From Lowells website) .

It is likely that your original creditor will have registered a default with regard to the outstanding debt on your credit file.

When the account is purchased by us, we are legally required to transfer the default into our name.


So if there was no registered default by Vanquis - then Lowell cant add a default as long as I am within my agreement with them ?

Who do I contact, Lowell or the CRA's ?

Cheers

Clarification please, in post 5 you state the original card show as settled (on CRA Files?), and now shows on CRA with Lowell?

 

The ''settled'' entry will have been when Lowell acquired the debt after which the original entry would be removed and Lowell will report to the CRA and must show the original default.

 

So as far as I can see the entry is correct.

Brig, if the default is recorded as happening in May 2013 it cannot be correct, as the account at this time would have been owned by Lowell. Lowell were not in a position themselves to default the account.

 

But it’s best to check with enrico again – can you confirm that Lowell have recorded a default that BEGINS in May 2013, rather than simply taking over an old default? What is listed as the actual default date – is it May 2013, as you stated? This is important.

So the true default date is 30th April 2012 as shown above NOT December 2013

 

You are reading the status history the 2013 is the start of th is years status history NOT a later default date and has not yet been updated with this years status from January 2103 onwards.

So the entry appears correct!

I am confused as hell. Where does it say April 2012.?

I think that what the op was saying is that when his card was upgraded they marked his original account as settled. Not the time of sale.

Has a post been removed?

 

If not maybe the OP could post his credit file entry.

Any opinion I give is from personal experience .

I would appear that the OPs post showing the CRA file details has been removed, it clearly showed the APRIL date.

 

May have had personal data???

I've never mentioned April 2012 ! I edited post 11 for date accuracy.

 

Simply put, the default has never showed on my CRA files until May 2013 when it has been added by Lowell with a default date of 30th April 2013.

Last entry above clearly shows default date 30/04/2012 not 2013 what you are reading is the status history as previously advised, December D. 2013 D history not up dated.

Sorry - Just realised it said 2012!. Old age creeping in

 

So, Its OK for Lowell to show that I have a default with them even though I never had a default registered by Vanquis?

 

I only started paying Lowell about 4 months ago and have not missed any payments with them (if that makes any difference)

 

Cheers

Vanquis are not known for selling accounts with out them being defaulted, the dates seem right for default and sale D.D April 2012.

 

My intuition tells me that between the settled card and the reporting of the upgraded card the default was placed and the account sold.

Hmm,

I think the settled card is a bit of a red herring - It's marked as settled in Aug 2009 when I did a balance transfer between my old Vanquis card and the new Vanquis card that then defaulted.(different account numbers)

However since the settlement in 2009 the has been no record of ANY vanquis transactions on my CRA's - its as if I never has the new card!

Hence my query about Lowell adding the default now

 

Cheers

Vanquis always when upgrading cards mark credit files on the 'original' card as settled when the balance on the old card ids transferred to the new card.

 

I don't think there is any further I can advise, unless you seek archived credit reports for the period the data is missing, the default will have already been place before Lowell acquired the debt.

 

You could expend £10 on a SAR to Vanquis.

OK thanks but as a last throw of the dice, I keep a reasonable eye on my CRA files, and I know that there has been no recorded activity at all (even when I was paying them) for this defaulted card and no default ever registered by Vanquis - So if I can prove this, then Lowell have acted improperly by registering a default in their name for an agreement that I never had with them?

 

Thanks for your advice. :-)
