    • Paragraph 18 – you are still talking about Boston stolen items. About time this was fixed??? Paragraph 19  In any event, the claimant's PS5 gaming device was correctly declared and correctly valued. The defendant accepted it for carriage and was even prepared to earn extra money by selling sell insurance in case of its loss or damage. New paragraph 20 – this the defendant routinely sells insurance in respect of "no compensation" items (a secondary contract contrary to section 72 CRA 2015) new paragraph above paragraph 20 – the defendant purports to limit its liability in respect of lost or damaged items. This is contrary to section 57 of the consumer rights act 2015. The defendant offers to extend their liability if their customer purchases an insurance cover for an extra sum of money. This insurance is a secondary contract calculated to exclude or limit their liability for the defendants contractual breaches and is contrary to section 72 of the consumer rights act 2015. New paragraph below paragraph 42 – the defendant merely relies on "standard industry practice" You haven't pointed to the place in your bundle of the Telegraph newspaper extract. You have to jiggle the paragraphs around. Even though I have suggested new paragraph numbers, the order I have suggested is on your existing version 5. You will have to work it out for your next version. Good luck!   Let's see version 6 Separately, would you be kind enough to send me an unredacted to me at our admin email address.
    • i think theres been MORE than amble evidence of that and am astonished that criminal proceedings haven't begun.
    • Yep, those 'requirements' not met to shareholders satisfaction seem to me to be: 1. Not being allowed to increase customer bills by 40% (of which well over 50% of the new total would NOT be investment) 2. 1 plus regulators not agreeing to letting them do 'things in their own time (ie carry on regardless)
    • As already mentioned freely available "credit scores" are fairly useless. All lenders have their own "credit scoring" system, that for obvious reasons they don't divulge. And they're "scored" differently to the freely available ones. As soon as they could, we've always encouraged our two children to use credit cards responsibly... Pay off in full, etc, to generate good history. It's paid off. At quite young ages, they have both obtained loans for cars, mortgage and their credit card limits are through the roof. Personally, I have shifted debt around a lot on credit cards (even financed a house purchase once at 0% 😉) and I've only ever been refused a credit card once, sorry twice by the same company, over many years. They must have something very different in their lending criteria. You're a tight one, Mr Branson.

    • 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.

What type of agreement is this zosaphine - credit card, loan, overdraft?

 

If it was either of the first two, unless your agreement was signed pre-1974, it is most definitely regulated by the CCA1974.

 

Suggest you write back & tell them they are talking rubbish & that they should seek legal advice. Quote S77/78 at them re. responding within 12 days & that until they provide the agreement, they cannot enforce the debt i.e. they can't have the money they are asking for. Also state you will be reporting their comments to the OFT.

 

Of course, they may respond by making a CC claim in which case you will have to be prepared to defend & then they will have to produce the agreement. More likely they will run off with their tails between their legs i.e. return the account to the OC.

Any knowledge I possess or advice I proffer is based solely on my experiences in the University of Life. Please make your own assessment of legality, risks & costs before taking any action.

Must be an ACCESS card no agreement signed, they were issued to all and sundry in the beginning, to activate a so called agreement you had to use it once, once purchase was made by ACCESS card that was the agreement no paperwork, sounds this was one if before CCA1974???? I had one orioginaly.

I am just looking at what MBNA have sent me,i have been trying to get default removed but each time at the death theyve just scraped in with information.I can get them on not sending default to correct address but now im thinking is the form they sent me enforcible it just seems to be an application form rather than legal cca..any thoughts

MBNA defaulted me, sold the debt, DCA put on notice of default and so can no longer pursue me for repayment. I have an audited agreement that clearly shows breaches of the prescribed terms. I need some help on which way to go with this in relation to DCA, or going back to MBNA. Is there a template letter please?

Something on the lines that the default was entered at a time when the agreement was being disputed and was never resolved, that the DCA has never proved the agreement was enforcable or replied in substance to 3 letters I sent to them in fact they told me they would no longer communicate about this matter with me. They periodicaly use an automated phone message to attempt to contact me, they don't write to me or have a human phone. They have never attempted collections procedures, only once sending a sudo solicitors letter threatening legal action.

Can someone please clear this up for me regarding prescribed terms and enforceability?

 

I have been sent by MBNA a signed application form with the prescribed terms photocopied on the reverse. Whether or not they were on the back originally, I dont know, but on the MBNA Application form thread (which I cant access at the moment), it said:

Comments : Around this time, (1997/98) MBNAlink3.gif did cock-up the Prescribed Terms. A common mistake was on the Minimum Payment Prescribed Term, as MBNA used to add a series of exception clauses to them...i.e. exception clauses that were to be found within another Document!

 

That stuffs them, as the Prescribed Terms cannot be found in another Document...they must be contained within the four corners of the Agreement.

 

On my ''prescribed Terms'' there are the following exceptions:

In section 4 of these conditions they mention ''except as mentioned in conditions 9.4, 10.5 and 10.6....Also in section 5© it mentions condition 9.1 and 14.1...... none of these are on this form, nor on the present day terms and conditionslink3.gif (£12 charge) sent along with this application form.

 

Would this make the Agreement unenforceable, or has anything changed in light of the recent court cases?

 

A copy of my agreement and terms can be seen here:

Hi Basil, I have the same 'Terms & Conditions' on the back of the application form they sent me (from 1998). I too haven't had a response as to whether it is enforceable or not so hope that someone knowledgable can answer this for us.

Yep, hopefully we can get a definite answer on this. CitizenB has been very helpful on my thread about this subject.

Please all be very careful. This is an old thread and the world has changed since it was started. There have been a number of test cases in the last year (or so) that make it virtually impossible to get a debt cancelled on he grounds of agreemnet unenforceability. The tests the courts apply to such things are extremely lax. Two years ago, the agreement you posted would be worth fighting. Today it is not. A court would certainly rule it enforceable.

 

I am going to close this thread as it is past its sell by date.
