Written by John Kruse, one of the leading experts on Bailiff Law, this consumer friendly guide is essential reading for anyone who comes into contact with a bailiff.
The book is easy to understand and clearly explains the rights
a bailiff has, and also what they cannot do when collecting debts and repossessing goods etc.
Today I got a response to my SAR from RBS Credit Cards. Well I say a response it is a one page excel spreadsheet just showing a list of monthly charges from 2001 to 2006.
Apart from the info being wrong (the total for charges comes to £153 and I know the total should be well over £1K) they are obviously taking the p*ss as I asked them for a full Breakdown of transactions and charges and any instances of manual intervention.
At the end of the day they have not complied with your request.
So send them the non compliance letter that can be found in the templates section and request that they send you the last 6 years statements as originally requested.
Well I was going to send them the non compliance letter anyway (although I'm not asking for the last 6 years I'm asking for the history of the account - to 1999).
I'm not too bothered about their non compliance as they have "mislaid" the copy of the credit agreement on this account.
Just really wondered if anyone had had anything similar from RBS.

If they havent got a copy of the credit agreement then they cant chase you for payment surely?
I was told that if you ask for the signed agreement and they cant produce it then you can walk away from any credit agreement.
I think you'd really need a brass neck to do it but I suppose its possibly?
