    • Hi Lolerz Thanks for replying to me, yes I've been ignoring her & will continue to do so. All she keeps saying is they want to come up with an amicable settlement. Keeps saying this to our receptionist she shouldn't be saying this to a receptionist or even me in the first place as they have given no proof of anything no IP addresses noting just keeps saying about an amicable settlement.
    • If a DCA supplies a reconstituted copy of the CCA what would be the next step? It seems that a reconstituted copy must be a " true copy " of the executed agreement, it must contain the Prescribed Terms. But given that there is no copy of the applicants signature surely it could be an agreement form with the details filled in. How can it be assumed that this " copy " represents a true copy that the claimant has supposed to have signed. Cabot have demonstrated a bit of sabre rattling when they say "Until we're able to provide this information , your account is unenforceable. This means we're not permitted to obtain a County Court judgement against you . Whilst we cannot pursue legal action, your balance remains outstanding ". I looked up a case... Cabot UK Ltd  v  Bachellier (2010) which might help, but it's tough reading, I'd prefer to plough through War and Peace. This particular case with Cabot is not huge , approx' £140, but the only other worry that I have is also with Cabot...£2100. They may try to make a point with lesser case.
    • you'll never find a court open on a w/end MB. all courts are closed Good Friday and Bank Holiday Monday. However as Andy points out, that does NOT mean you get 2 extra days to file, you get one, same as xmas/new Year. UKPC have not filed their, so no rush on yours as dave says.

    • 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.

You send a CCA request to whoever is chasing you for the alleged debt, which is the DCA in this case. However, if you have received court papers then there is a different, and better, route to go down. You can get hold of copies of the documentation under Civil Procedures Rules. Have a good read in the Legal Issues forum.

 

Have you acknowledged the court papers and/or filed a defence yet?

Hi Ruth.

 

Could you provide a bit more information please.

What is the date on the Claim Form?

What is detailed in the particulars of claim?

Were any documents attached to the claim form? e.g agreements etc.

 

In the first instance you should Acknowledge Service of the claim form.

This can be done online or by post.

 

You should then look to send a CPR request letter to the Claimant and send a copy to their solicitor asking for documents they will rely upon.

 

Any letters should be sent recorded delivery and you should keep the proof of postage and also proof of delivery.

 

Do not sign the letters.

 

---

I would also suggest you ask a site team member to change your title to something more suitable and ask them to move the thread to the legal issues section.

 

Regards

If you admit to the whole debt you will get a CCJ awarded against you by default.

 

If you admit to part of the debt, you will also get a CCJ awarded against you.

 

If you complete the Acknowledgment of Service and state that you intend to defend all of the debt then this will give you the opportunity to see if the creditor has an enforceable credit agreement.

 

I would advise that you read a few threads to see how things move on.

 

Have a look at a few in here - DCA Legal Successes - The Consumer Forums

This has obviously been issued out of the Northampton Bulk Claim centre.

 

You really need to give us a bit more information.

 

My observations are:

 

This claim was issued on 25th November 2009. There is an allowance of 5 days for receipt.

 

You then have 14 days to acknowledge service and say if you are going to defend or not. This must be done by 14th December. You can do it online.

 

As you dont have sufficient information at this stage, then it would be wise to defend ALL when you acknowledge receipt of the claim. Print off the receipt once you have acknowledged.

 

You have until 28th December to put in a defence. But you will need to get it in by 23rd/24th I would think because of the Christmas break.

 

If you can tell us a little bit more about the account being chased.

 

Is it for more or less than £5,000

Who are D&G solicitors acting for ?

Have you received any of the following : Default Notice, Termination Notice.

 

Have you sent off the subject Access Request ?. You will need to send that to the original creditor.

 

You need to write to the solicitor and ask for information. You can do that by using the following letter, please read it carefully because there are bits that will need amending to suit your own circumstances.

 

Dear Sir,

 

Re: (Claimant's name) v (Your name) Case No:

CPR 31.14 Request

 

On (date) I received the Claim Form in this case issued by you out of the (Name) County Court.

 

I confirm having returned my acknowledgement of service to the court in which I indicate my intention to contest all of your claim.

 

[Prior to the issue of proceedings I had delivered a request for the production of the agreement mentioned in the Claim Form and on which you rely. That request was ignored][delete if no such request was delivered]

 

Please treat this letter as my request made under CPR 31.14 for the disclosure and the production of a verified and legible copy of [each of the following / the] document(s) mentioned in your Particulars of Claim:

 

1 the agreement. You will appreciate that in an ordinary case and by reason of the provisions of CPR PD 16 para 7.3, where a claim is based upon a written agreement, a copy of the contract or documents constituting the agreement should be attached to or served with the particulars of claim and the original(s) should be available at the hearing. Further, that any general conditions incorporated in the contract should also be attached.

 

2 the default notice*

 

3 the termination notice*

 

4 the formal demand

 

 

 

You should ensure compliance with your CPR 31 duties and ensure that the document(s) I have requested are copied to and received by me within 7 days of receiving this letter. Your CPR 31 duties extend to making a reasonable and proportionate search for the originals of the documents I have requested, the better for you to be able to verify the document's authenticity and to provide me with a legible copy. Further, where I have requested a copy of a document, the original of which is now in the possession of another person, you will have a right to possession of that document if you have mentioned it in your case. You must take immediate steps to recover and preserve it for the purpose of this case.

 

Where I have mentioned a document and there is in your possession more than one version of that same document owing to a modification, obliteration or other marking or feature, each version will be a separate document and you must provide a copy of each version of it to me. Your obligations extend to making a reasonable and proportionate search for any version(s) to include an obligation to recover and preserve such version(s) which are now in the possession of a third party.

 

In accordance with CPR 31.15© I undertake to be responsible for your reasonable copying costs incurred in complying with this CPR 31.14 request.

 

If you require more time in which to comply with this request you must tell me in writing. You must tell me before the time for compliance with this request has expired. In telling me you require more time you must tell me what steps you have taken and propose to take in order to comply with this request and also state a date by when you will comply with this request. In addition your statement must be accompanied with a statement that you agree to an extension of the time for me to file my defence. Your extension of time must be not less than 14 days from the date when you say you will have complied with my request and you must state the new date for filing my defence.

 

If you are unable to comply with this request and believe that you will never be able to comply with this request you must tell me in writing.

 

Please note that if you should fail to comply with this request, fail to request more time or fail to agree to an extension of time for the filing of my defence, I will make an application to the court for an order that the proceedings be struck out or stayed for non-compliance and a summary costs order.

 

I do hope this will not be necessary and look forward to hearing from you.

 

yours faithfully

 

 

 

If you can answer the questions I have asked above, then we can set about helping you.

All you need to do at the moment is acknowledge the claim online.

 

You will have a password on the claim form.

 

All you need to do is tick a few boxes at this stage.

 

You will be asked :

 

How much of the claim do you dispute ? - You will tick (I dispute the full amount claimed as shown on the claim form)

 

You will be asked:

 

Do you dispute the claim because you have already paid it ? - You will tick - NO

 

You will do nothing else at this stage. Once you have acknowledged service as above, then you will have until 28th December to put in a defence. If you receive information before then.. you can put in a fully particularised defence. If not, then you will need to put in a holding defence. So we wait a while and see what comes back from the letter to the solicitors and from your Subject Access Request to M&S.

 

In the letter I have put for you above, you will need to ask for a copy of the agreement, a copy of the Default notice and the formal demand because they have mentioned them in their claim form (POC).

 

Do remember to print off the receipt once you have finished acknolwedging.

 

Send your Subject Access Request to M&S include a £10.00 postal order.

Send the CPR 31.14 letter to the Solicitors

Send both by recorded or special delivery.

 

Get yourself a file/folder and keep copies of everything

 

With the information you have provided, I have amended the letter for the solicitors in post 19. You just need to add dates where necessary and also if you didnt ask for information BEFORE the claim was received.. you will need to remove the paragraph that is highlighted in red.

 

You must get those letters out quickly.

You send the CPR31.14 letter from post 19 to D&G solicitors only.

 

You send the subject access request from the link below to M&S only.

 

http://www.consumerforums.com/resources/templates-library/86-debt-collectors/576-subject-access-request-debt-a-dca

 

Send the letters to the addressess that are on the claim form.

 

I would suggest you print them on the computer.. it will take you for ever to do them by hand:D

 

If you print a row of XXXXs in a mid grey colour then sign over the top of them, then you have no worries.

Yes, you can copy and paste the letters into your own computer document. Make sure you change anything that needs changing and put dates in.

 

When you send legal requests and the SAR you will be required to SIGN your name. If you put a row of XXXs at the bottom of the letter BEFORE you print it off, then sign over them when you HAVE printed it off, then your signature will be safe.

 

you should take some time to read other threads in the M&S forums. This will give you an idea of what to do and when to do it. The link below will take you to that section
