    • DX: I did not pursue Link after I got the CCJ amended to monthly payments. Pretty sure the CCJ does not mention reviews, I do have the CCJ somewhere, I will have to look it up in storage. It is as mentioned on the thread you referenced  in your post #28. The Barclays loan was taken out in September 2004 for 60 months! Current Balance remaining approx £2K. On checking back my past correspondence with Barclaycard about this loan, there was a history of them ignoring my letters and offers to pay, and I even had problems in obtaining their bank account details for them to accept my payments! I have received strange correspondence from them too, one referring to insurance which I did not have. They seem very disorganised! Barclaycard told me to pay "Masterloan" a while back and I now receive regular statements and arrears notices from "Personal Loans from Barclaycard" clearly marked Masterloan, they changed the account reference number! I have never requested a CCA on this account. I advised them of my change of address last September, but they are still sending, until today, statements etc. to my old address! I have received 2 letters from Barclaycard Loan today though, not opened them yet!!
    • Yes, a few months ago. They wrote back saying there was no CCA and the debt was unenforcable. I then started gtting bombarded with threatening emails from their 'litigations team' which have been sent to spam. I've now recieved the letter before claim with the PAP form enclosed, but still no CCA or even a letter from them to say the debt is deemed enforcable. Thank you.
    • That's a shame but not unexpected.  I'm not sure about your assumed  questions because I haven't been to court but I'm not sure about not accepting a criminal record. It could be a language thing but it isn't your choice unfortunately.  HB
    • Have you previously requested the agreement by a CCA request ?
    • Just to clarify then, should the reason I am disputing the debt be that they have not supplied all the relevant paperwork (CCA) and the debt is therefore unenforcable?

    • 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.

I have received statements for my mortgage account.

 

The statements include Unpaid Fees, I am happy that these fees can be claimed back.

 

I do have a couple of quesitons:

 

I have some 'Default Letter' charges, these have been received on a monthly basis when I have had problems with my account. Based on this they don't seem to be default letters as this would only be issued in the event of a default (3 missed payments).

 

I am keen to try to reclaim these fees. They originally were £10 but went up to £25. They obviously represent a fair amount.

 

I also have a selection of Unpaid Direct Debit fees which are only set at £10, they obviously are not proportionate to the actual cost, they do however fall below the OFT guidelines of £10. Do we have any thoughts on trying to claim these?

Every kind of penalty fee you mentioned in your post is claimable. It doesn't matter if they are below the OFT guidelines which are £12 I believe as £10 is still a lot more than it costs them to deal with your misdemeanor. IE The £10 is not just covering their costs but still making a profit for the bank. The OFT said they would not "challenge" any organisation that set their charges below £12 I believe. So go get them.....................

Hi there,

 

Im fed up of being overcharged, sometimes its by £2 and a £58 charge is appiled a one off £28 for the month plus £30 for paying my direct debit. Does the fact they paid the DD and then applied a charge make any difference???

 

Also how did you calculate your interest owed?

 

Cheers

The charges are disproportionate so it shouldn't make a difference.

 

I calculated the interest using a spreadsheet provided on this site. It is only applicable if you file a claim at court.

 

Take a look at the FAQ's on this site before you start, they are very useul and helpful.

I have read that if you are charging the bank contractual interest then you mention in all correspondance, has anyone use the advanced sheet yet I cant understand the right hand column (how does it calculate the interest on penalty charges?) The figures seem to come from no where?

Some people seem to think that the contractualy interest is what the bank deserve as a result, plus it takes about 1,000,000 years to work it out!

 

Try posting fresh rather than piggy backing on this one, you may get a better response.

Response back from BOS the day ater receiving mine!

 

'Thank you for your letter of the 9 October 2006 received by the Bank on the 10 October 2006.

 

I write to advise that the charges to which you reere are legally applicable, covering actual losses sustained byt he Bank in administrative costs and interest.

 

In this respect the Bankdoes not consider your request for a refund of charges and fees.

 

I hope that I have been able to resolve this matter and I will close your file if I don't hear from you in the next eight weeks.

 

A copy of our complaints leaflet which explains your options is enclosed if you remain dissatisfied. If you would like to speak to me about your complaint, please telephone direct line 0131 xxx xxxx.

 

Yours sincerely

 

 

 

Melita Mason

Customer Service and Operations Manager.'

A quick telephone call to Melita Mason reveals that BOS are readers of the site! 'We received your letter that you got from the website!'

 

I am awaiting an appropriate response as they have not broken down their charges to show they are proportionate.

 

There are apparently no external email addresses for anyone in the bank! The email I sent in the [email protected] format has not bounced!

Does anyone have any thoughts about filing the LBA immediately following their response to this matter?

 

The Prelim letter gives the opportunity to resolve the matter, their response indicates that they are unwilling to do so.....

So in order to establish if the email address I sent to was correct or not I sent a quick test message to a random name. ([email protected])

 

Suprisingly, this one bounced. I can only assume from that the email I sent was received as it did not bounce.

 

This does please me as I was specifically advised 'We don't have external email addresses.'

 

Can anyone have a quick look over my other 2 Q's:

 

1 - Claiming on a mortgage account.

2 - Sending a LBA following their immediate negative response.

Susanne, only problem with sending to Tommy is that he is at the Royal Bank, not the Bank OS.

 

Still, It might make him feel popular, getting sent letters for other banks (we know how sympathetic he can be but this might be stretching it a wee bitty) lol

 

:lol:

1/9/06 RBS claim #1

8/11/06 - claim settled

the reason I mentioned [email protected] is because my brother works there and that is the format of his email address.

Neither format bounce!

 

I sent with a . and with a _ they both go through.

 

A mis-spelling of the name bounces as does test.message so I can see that they do have external email, she just didn't want me to have it!

 

I do hate it when they lie.....
