    • we have known for a very very long time that 9/10 the OC never knows IRRWW are chasing debtors nor  in some cases even taking money from them that the OC never ever see!! IDRWW pockets it -  free money - lets all go on a staff holiday. there was an article some years back whereby that quoted some +£4M debtors had paid to IDRWW on UAE debts that when contacted the originating banks knew nothing about....😎  
    • let the ombudsman do their job. you'll win handsdown you dont obv owe OVO p'haps anything at all.  dont worry about Past Due credit or any other DCA ( THEY ARE NOT BAILIFFS!) as for you being added to the debt, thats quite OK, you were a resident adult and equally liable under law. once you start getting things moving via the  ombudsman dont forget to get your credit files cleansed of any negative data & seek compensation for distress etc, again the  ombudsman should sort both out for you. as you are now NOT a customer of OVO, there is very very little they can do to you now.  
    • A question - did you use the supermarket or the restaurant? I see the restrictions are different. Sign.pdf
    • DN is ok DCA NOA is ok, though not one from Newday saying they've sold it. agreement states esigned on a sunday at 11am?? really??  but no typed names or tick box nor any IP address used. if the date is correct then poss ok, it that your correct address for that time of take out? but if not, then that could simply be a copy of someone elses they've used with you details copy'n'pasted over theirs. the agreement details separate T&C's in at least 8.4. a full set of T&C containing your correct address for the time MUST be included. failure renders the agreement unenforceable... have you the T&C's too? dx
    • Npower and Scottish Power and others have always had regulations that require them to treat customers fairly - the threads here and my experiences demonstrate that those regs are little more than useless.   Even Octopus recently spent month after month saying they needed to increase my monthly payments despite my credit balance slowly going up TWICE I had to reset it online back to prior payment as they unilaterally increased it unilaterally. Raised formal complaint and they than said i was paying too much and reduced the payment, again without my agreement, although that time at least they told me they were doing it.   .. and Octopus has been one of the better ones.

    • 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.

Hi,

 

I started my fight with credit cards early in 2008 by unfortunately using an agent who acted on behalf (stupid I know), he has now gone walkabouts so I am carrying on myself.

 

 

I had an M&S money credit card which was opened in 2006 and during the time the agent was looking after the letters etc a credit agreement never appeared.

 

 

I started receiving letters from DLC with regards the debt and I sent the a CCA request in which they have now returned a signed copy of the agreement and a statement of transactions.

 

 

I have also received a letter from ScotCall Debt Collecting Services with a doorstep collectionlink3.gif notice, are they linked with DLC?

 

Can anybody please advise what I need to do next

as I have no idea if the agreement is enforceable or not, my signaturelink3.gif is there and it is dated.

 

Also looking at the statement of transactions M&S have added a substantial amount of interestlink3.gif onto the account since it was originally disputed are they allowed to do this?

 

Sorry one more thing,

how do I know if the debt has been sold to DLC as I have never received a letter from M&S stating this?

 

 

Thanks

Thank you for looking, thought that may be the case. Yes I do have a copy of a default notice m&s sent in 2008.

What should I do now as I have no way of paying the balance in full!

Thanks

You will have to send the original creditor a SAR to find that out, but the good news is the DN is defective, they allowed you 14 days from the date of the notice for you to remedy... they neglected to allow for postal service, so if they've sold the debt or demanded payment of all the monies they have unlawfully rescinded the agreement and are only entitled to the arrears at the time the default notice was issued. ;)

If I end up paying the arrears am I entitled to ask them to remove the default notice from my credit file?
Depending on what the sar shows up but it is possible that you will not have to pay a penny + you will be able to demand the removal of the default and possibly have a claim for compensation.

The latest letter I have had from scotcall states "your above outstanding debt has been placed with scotcall" could this mean it has been sold and they hav'nt properly informed me?

Also should I send them a letter telling them I am sending m&s an sar to get them off my back as they are threatening a doorstep call?

Hello Skyblue

 

Write back to Scotcall and ask them to state exactly what they mean by 'the debt has been passed to us'. You may also want to write to the OC to confirm what the exact position is from their view point but perhaps the SARN request to the lender will bring that out.

The matrix is intrinsically flawed. Within it is the program for it's own destruction. If you are reading this, you are in the matrix and it's days are numbered...so watch out! :eek:

A doorstep caller is nothing to worry about when/if they come just tell them your not intrested and close the door. There is nothing they can do. They mean nothing.

True, but it's the fact that it can be intimidating for some and also that the lenders will add a charge for that 'service' to your account - and charge interest for it of course.

 

Be mindful also that a doorstep visit from the lender, when a debtor appears to be in difficulty makes them 'look better' in the eyes of the regs should a complaint later arise. It makes them look like they've tried to 'improve' the situation.

 

But yes agreed, doorsteppers can certainly be ignored as far as I know...

i,

 

I have now received a bubdle of paperwork from M&S which did arrived within the 40 day limit.

 

 

The documents they have enclosed are;

- another copy of the signed agreement,

screen prints outs detailing all transactions, payments and all contact.

 

 

There are a couple of copies of the more recent statements but no copies of default notices or Notice of assignment.

 

 

Do I need to send M&s another letter requesting this?

 

 

Thanks!

I have checked through the sar and it is very difficult to understand because a lot of if is in code but no it doesn't seem to have any mention of the account being sold on.

 

 

I havnt received anything from them since the sar,

is there anything else I need to do at moment or just sit tight and see what comes through next?

Thank you all for your help so far!
