I had a letter from shoosmiths threatening legal action if they didn't hear from me in 14 days.

 

I CCA'd arrow and sent a CPR request to Shoosmiths for the agreement, default notice, assignment etc.

 

I have just heard from Arrow saying that as it was an overdraft it isn't covered by CCA regulation

and Shoosmiths saying much the same and saying they will now take court action.

 

Shoosmiths also sent a statement of account

the debt they are claiming relates to a M&S personal reserve account

which as far as I was aware was a credit account not an overdraft

as I have never had an overdraft or bank account with M&S.

 

What is it best to do?

All requests sent but nothing so far. If someone could give my draft defence below the once over I would be very grateful.

 

Particulars of Claim

 

1.The claim is for the sum of £3600 being monies due from the defendant to the claimant as a consequence of the defendant incurring an overdraft whilst operating a bank account(account no.0000000000xxxxxx) with Marks and Spencer Financial services PLC.*

 

2.The debt was assigned to the claimant on 30/01/2013 and notice of the assignment provided to the defendant, pursuant to the law of Property Act 1925.

 

3. Payment of the above sum has been requested but as at the date herof refused.

 

4.The claimant claims the sum of £3600 C has complied , as far as is necessary, with the pre-action conduct practice direction

 

 

#####Defence#####

 

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 rejected in its entirety. I have never held a bank account with Marks and Spencer Financial Services and consequently have never had an overdraft with the claimant.

 

2. Paragraph 2 is denied the claimant has not served a notice of assignment in accordance with s136 law and property act 1925 and therefore have yet to prove they are entitled to bring this claim.

 

3. On receipt of this claim I requested information pertaining to this claim from Shoosmiths LLP Solicitors and Arrow Global Guernsey Ltd. by way of a CPR 31.14 and a section 78 ?? request. To date, no response has been received from Shoosmiths LLP other than to acknowledge receipt of the request and that they have submitted it to C. I have not had any response from Arrow Global Guernsey Ltd.

 

4. Therefore with the court’s permission the Claimant is put to strict proof to:

 

(a) show and disclose how the Defendant has entered into an agreement; and

 

(b) show and disclose how the Claimant has reached the amount claimed for;

 

© show how the agreement was legally terminated to allow the claimant relief.

 

(d) show how the Claimant has the legal right, either under statute or equity to issue a claim;

 

5. As per*Civil Procedure*Rule 16.5, it is expected that the Claimant prove the allegation that the money is owed.

 

6. On the alternative, if 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.

 

7. 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.

So we require the exact opening date of the account to prove that no overdraft facilities were offered by M&S at that time and the defence will need to be redrafted.

So should I add a new paragraph 2 as follows:

 

2. The account number referred to by the claimant relates to a M&S Personal reserve account opened 19/5/1997 and was a credit account and not an overdraft account as M&S did not at this date issue such accounts.

 

and what else should I add?

thanks

Despite having heard nothing for ages I got a judgment by default because I hadn't responded to the claim. It is date 23/10/17 but I filed my defence on 5/5/17 and have the original email I sent with acknowledgement of receipt.

I have received no other communication about the claim until now.

What should I do?
