    • My defence was standard no paperwork:   1.The Defendant contends that the particulars of claim are generic in nature. The Defendant accordingly sets out its case below and relies on CPR r 16.5 (3) in relation to any particular allegation to which a specific response has not been made. 2. Paragraph 1 is noted. The Defendant has had a contractual relationship with MBNA Limited in the past. The Defendant does not recognise the reference number provided by the claimant within its particulars and has sought verification from the claimant who is yet to comply with requests for further information. 3. Paragraph 2 is denied. The Defendant maintains that a default notice was never received. The Claimant is put to strict proof to that a default notice was issued by MBNA Limited and received by the Defendant. 4. Paragraph 3 is denied. The Defendant is unaware of any legal assignment or Notice of Assignment allegedly served from either the Claimant or MBNA Limited. 5. On the 02/01/2023 the Defendant requested information pertaining to this claim by way of a CCA 1974 Section 78 request. The claimant is yet to respond to this request. On the 19/05/2023 a CPR 31.14 request was sent to Kearns who is yet to respond. To date, 02/06/2023, no documentation has been received. The claimant remains in default of my section 78 request. 6. It is therefore denied with regards to the Defendant owing any monies to the Claimant, the Claimant has failed to provide any evidence of proof of assignment being sent/ agreement/ balance/ breach or termination requested by CPR 31.14, therefore the Claimant is put to strict proof to: (a) show how the Defendant entered into an agreement; and (b) show and evidence the nature of breach and service of a default notice pursuant to Section 87(1) CCA1974 (c) show how the claimant has reached the amount claimed for; and (d) show how the Claimant has the legal right, either under statute or equity to issue a claim; 7. As per Civil Procedure Rule 16.5(4), it is expected that the Claimant prove the allegation that the money is owed. 8. On the alternative, as the Claimant is an assignee of a debt, it is denied that the Claimant has the right to lay a claim due to contraventions of Section 136 of the Law of Property Act and Section 82A of the consumer credit Act 1974. 9. By reasons of the facts and matters set out above, it is denied that the Claimant is entitled to the relief claimed or any relief.
    • Monika the first four pages of the Private parking section have at least 12 of our members who have also been caught out on this scam site. That's around one quarter of all our current complaints. Usually we might expect two current complaints for the same park within 4 pages.  So you are in good company and have done well in appealing to McDonalds in an effort to resolve the matter without having  paid such a bunch of rogues. Most people blindly pay up. Met . Starbucks and McDonalds  are well aware of the situation and seem unwilling to make it easier for motorists to avoid getting caught. For instance, instead of photographing you, if they were honest and wanted you  to continue using their services again, they would have said "Excuse me but if you are going to go to Mc donalds from here, it will cost you £100." But no they kett quiet and are now pursuing you for probably a lot more than £100 now. They also know thst  they cannot charge anything over the amount stated on the car park signs. Their claims for £160 or £170 are unlawful yet so many pay that to avoid going to Court. When the truth is that Met are unlikely to take them to Court since they know they will lose. The PCNs are issued on airport land which is covered by Byelaws so only the driver can be pursued, not the keeper. But they keep writing to you as they do not know who was driving unless you gave it away when you appealed. Even if they know you were driving they should still lose in Court for several reasons. The reason we ask you to fill out our questionnaire is to help you if MET do decide to take you to Court in the end. Each member who visited the park may well have different experiences while there which can help when filling out a Witness statement [we will help you with that if it comes to it.] if you have thrown away the original PCN  and other paperwork you obviously haven't got a jerbil or a guinea pig as their paper makes great litter boxes for them.🙂 You can send an SAR to them to get all the information Met have on you to date. Though if you have been to several sites already, you may have done that by now. In the meantime, you will be being bombarded by illiterate debt collectors and sixth rate solicitors all threatening you with ever increasing amounts as well as being hung drawn and quartered. Their letters can all be safely ignored. On the odd chance that you may get a Letter of Claim from them just come back to us and we will get you to send a snotty letter back to them so that they know you are not happy, don't care a fig for their threats and will see them off in Court if they finally have the guts to carry on. If you do have the original PCN could you please post it up, carefully removing your name. address and car registration number but including dates and times. If not just click on the SAR to take you to the form to send to Met.

    • Hello CAG Team, I'm adding the contents of the claim to this thread, but wanted to open the thread with an urgent question: Do I have to supply a WS for a claim with a court date that states " at the hearing the court will consider allocation and, time permitting, give an early neutral evaluation of the case" ? letter is an N24 General Form of Judgement or Order, if so, then I've messed up again. Court date 25 May 2024 The letter from court does not state (like the other claims I have) that I must provide WS within 28 days.. BUT I have recently received a WS from Link for it! making me think I do need to!??

    • 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 all

 

I have debts with Littlewoods, Next and hubby has one with Very

(along with other debts such as credit cards and a store card but these are the 'catalogue' debts).

 

We are struggling to pay any of our debt and need to make some payment arrangements.

 

I have noted that there is a CCA request which is often used by people to see if the debt is enforceable,

 

I am not sure when these ONLINE accounts were set up but believe it was 2007/08.

 

Can anyone advise if we are able to take any steps in regards to CCA...

Also, would you advise to CCA them anyway and see what happens?......

 

In either instance can we claim back all the late payment fees etc from these debts?...

 

.I understand I would need to SAR them but after that not sure how to actually request the fees back so a little advice would be lovely please.

 

Thanks guys :)

Hi all,

 

some of you may know that Ive been having trouble paying my debts and wasnt sure how to proceed....

 

I took the path of waiting for creditors to default me so that the 6 year s on my credit file would drop off quicker than an arrangement to pay.

 

I have not mad any payments to anyone except WONGA who I have paid 2 payments of £5 per month.

 

I have recieved a few letter stating my account is in arrears but

 

today I have recieved a letter from a DCA called NDR entitled

 

'notice of instruction to proceed'

 

which includes the words

 

'WE GIVE NOTICE THAT UNLESS THE ACCOUNT IS PAID

- OR A SATISFACTORY REPAYMENT ARRANGEMENT IS MADE WITHIN 7 DAYS,

OUR CLIENT WILL TAKE THE FOLLOWING ACTION:

 

* register a default at the credit reference bureau which will remain on your credit file for 6 years and may affect your ability to gain further credit in the future.

 

 

Can anyone explain what this means for me, what you might suggest my next steps may be and is this a NOTICE OF DEFAULT?

Thanks alot guys :)

NO it's not a proper default notice imo it's a threat as it does not state in particular the specific amount to remedy the default and no specicic dates are shown.

 

If this is the 1st contact from NDR send them a CCA request.

Any Letters I Draft are N0T approved by CAG and no personal liability is accepted.

Thanks alot Brigadier :)

 

Think the account was opened online after 2007 so I suspect requesting a CCA doesnt make much difference to me as they probably have something somewhere to clarify the agreement, but we will see....

 

However, if I was to send an SAR what can I reclaim?...late payment fees etc?

Hi lovely people

I recently sent a CCA request to NDR for a Littlewoods Account. I recieved a letter back like this :

 

We refer to your request for a copy of your credit agreement.

In accordance with the Consumer Credit Act 1974, please find encosed the following documents:

1. A reconstituted copy of your credit agreement sent to you at the time of opening your account;

and

2. A copy of your current credit agreement, which includes all applicable contractual variations and amendments that have taken place since your account was opened.

 

According to our records your account was opened on 25.06.2008. The current outstanding balance on your account is XXXXXX. Our records show an amount of XXXX has become payable but remains unpaid.

 

Enclosed is a sheet entitled Credit Agreeent regulated by the Consumer Credit ACt 1974 and underneath is my name and address. It then shows Key Financial Information, then two boxes where in one I presume there should be a signature and date as it says and in the other it says DOB, TEL, ACC NO. There is nothing written on the dotted lines at all, no signature or details etc.

 

And the rest is a bit about sharing information, are you having difficulty etc tec.

In the meantime I have moved house meaning I havnt made it a priority to chase this query up and have just recieved a letter dated 30th April 2013 (neighbour asked for my post from old address) with a notice of default, giving me until the 13th May to respond.

 

What Id like to know is:

Is the reconstituted CCA they sent me a valid copy of the agreement?

If it isnt valid was I supposed to query this before they managed to issue a Notice of Default?

What would you advise my next steps be?

 

Just to clarify, Im not concerned about being defaulted...Id prefer this to a status of 'Arrangement to Pay' on my file due to the 6 year drop off.

 

 

(Oh, and Ive updated my address with Littlewoods regarding this account)

 

Thanks all for your continued help with this :)

 I could do with a little advice as I think I may only have a couple of days should I need to respond to NDR/Littlewoods regarding this Default Notice and my CCA request (which Im not sure if they have sufficiently fulfilled.)

 

Thanks :)

you need to scan up your agreement so's we can see it.

 

did you get those sar's off too?

 

set your default scan page size to A4 less than 300DPI [150 will do]

scan the required letters/agreements/sheets - as a picture[jpg] file

don't forget you can use a mobile phone or a digital camera too!!

'

BUT......

ENSURE: remove all pers info inc. barcodes etc using paint program

but leave all monetary figures and dates.

Page 2 is the 'Further Terms and conditions' it has no spaces for names, dates, signatures, merely a general breakdown of the terms and conditions.

If you really need it I will put it up? But it has no personal info on it whatsoever.

Cheers :)

 

Would you like me to attach the 2nd page? If not what would you suggest my next move is?.....the time is up for providing a copy of the original so should I send some other letter now?

 

Also just to say again (as I know how long threads can be to read through especially when I keep updating them) this account was opened 2008 and online. Incase this will make a difference to my situation/and next steps to take.

Thank you :)

Hi just a little bump to see if anyone read my last post about this debt being 'post 2007' and an online agreement?

 

Right,

have drawn up the SAR letter and hubby is sending it off recorded delivery as advised.

 

What Im slightly concerned about though is the possibilty of them and other creditors starting up court judgement proceedings in the meantime...

..can they do this without the original CCA?

Would I have to contest it before they issued proceedings...

...or is there plenty of time for me to see if the debt is enforceable with the help of you lovely people?...

 

.I dont want to ignore my debt but if it is unenforceable then I would definitely prefer to take advantage of that rather than paying a few quid here and there forever.

 

I apologise for keep asking questions its just that the thought of court proceedings scares me to be honest.

I wouldn't worry too much about court for now

don't do court on cat debts

 

they'll sell it on.

Send the account in dispute letter for the CCA request.

 

It has to be remembered there is the possibility that the creditor/DCA may produce a compliant 'reconstituted'' agreement and evidence of usage of a credit facility which could lead a judge to conclude that liability subsist, the lack of the CCA does not extinguish the debt which remains payable.

The SAR is important!!

As to creditors/DCAs starting court action I think you are a long way from seeing this at present, there is a long process before anything gets to 'judgement' stage.

Any Letters I Draft are N0T approved by CAG and no personal liability is accepted.
