    • love the extra £1000 charge for confidentialy there BF   Also OP even if they don't offer OOC it doesn't mean your claim isn't good. I had 3 against EVRi that were heard over the last 3 weeks. They sent me emails asking me to discontinue as I wouldn't win. Went infront of a judge and won all 3.    Just remember the law is on your side. The judges will be aware of this.   Where you can its important to try to point out at the hearing the specific part of the contract they breached. I found this was very helpful and the Judge made reference to it when they gave their judgements and it seemed this was pretty important as once you have identified a specific breach the matter turns straight to liability. From there its a case of pointing out the unlawfullness of their insurance and then that should be it.
    • I know dx and thanks again for yours and others help. I was 99.999% certain last payment was over six years ago if not longer.  👍
    • Paragraph 23 – "standard industry practice" – put this in bold type. They are stupid to rely on this and we might as well carry on emphasising how stupid they are. I wonder why they could even have begun to think some kind of compelling argument – "the other boys do it so I do it as well…" Same with paragraph 26   Paragraph 45 – The Defendants have so far been unable to produce any judgements at any level which disagree with the three judgements…  …court, but I would respectfully request…   Just the few amendments above – and I think it's fine. I think you should stick to the format that you are using. This has been used lots of times and has even been applauded by judges for being meticulous and clear. You aren't a professional. Nobody is expecting professional standards and although it's important that you understand exactly what you are doing – you don't really want to come over to the judge that you have done this kind of thing before. As a litigant in person you get a certain licence/leeway from judges and that is helpful to you – especially if you are facing a professional advocate. The way this is laid out is far clearer than the mess that you will get from EVRi. Quite frankly they undermine their own credibility by trying to say that they should win simply because it is "standard industry practice". It wouldn't at all surprise me if EVRi make you a last moment offer of the entire value of your claim partly to avoid judgement and also partly to avoid the embarrassment of having this kind of rubbish exposed in court. If they do happen to do that, then you should make sure that they pay everything. If they suddenly make you an out-of-court offer and this means that they are worried that they are going to lose and so you must make sure that you get every penny – interest, costs – everything you claimed. Finally, if they do make you an out-of-court offer they will try to sign you up to a confidentiality agreement. The answer to that is absolutely – No. It's not part of the claim and if they want to settle then they settle the claim as it stands and don't try add anything on. If they want confidentiality then that will cost an extra £1000. If they don't like it then they can go do the other thing. Once you have made the amendments suggested above – it should be the final version. court,. I don't think we are going to make any more changes. Your next job good to make sure that you are completely familiar with it all. That you understand the arguments. Have you made a court familiarisation visit?
    • just type no need to keep hitting quote... as has already been said, they use their own criteria. if a person is not stated as linked to you on your file then no cant hurt you. not all creditors use every CRA provider, there are only 3 main credit file providers mind, the rest are just 3rd party data sharers. if you already have revolving credit on your file there is no need to apply for anything just 'because' you need to show you can handle money. if you have bank account(s) and a mortgage which you are servicing (paying) then nothing more can improve your score, despite what these 'scam' sites claiml  its all a CON!!

    • 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 rippedoff15,

 

They can call your employer but are not allowed to give out any details to them or the fact that you have a loan. Although 5 times a day is near to harrassment.

 

They will setup repayment plans, I have one with them over 12 months.

Well, had 5 calls at home today during every call i repeated that i need to arrange repayment plan, but they refuse and they stated they will continue to call my home and work unless i give debt card Blackmail. When they call my employer they state its a personal financail matter and give my employer their office telephone number. I keep emailing but get no reply and today they added £90.00 onto the loan now totalling £380.00, based on a loan of £286.00 from 13/10/12

Have you registered a formal complaint? If not, do it immediately in writing, not over the phone.

Mr Lender aren't the most competent company in recording calls or the easiest to deal with. Calling it work is bang out of order moreso 5 times in one day and especially if they say it's a "personal financial matter". Did you get the name of any individual and the times of the calls they made? You can submit a formal complaint to the OFT immediately, e-mail them on [email protected].

Re: Harassment by telephone

 

 

ACCOUNT NUMBER: XXXXXXX

 

Dear Sirs

 

I am writing in relation to the quantity and frequency of telephone calls that I have received from your company, which I deem to be personally harassing.

 

I have verbally requested that these stop, but I am still receiving calls. (Delete if necessary)

 

I now require all further correspondence from your company to be made in writing only.

 

I am of the view that your continued harassment of me by telephone puts you in breach of Section 40 of the Administration of Justice Act 1970, and the Protection from Harassment Act 1997.

 

If you continue to harass me by telephone, you will also be in breach of the Communications Act (2003) s.127 and I will report you to OFCOM, Trading Standards and The Office of Fair Trading, meaning that you will be liable to a substantial fine.

 

Be advised that any further telephone callslink3.gif from your company will be recorded. (**Even if you don‘t yet have recording equipment!!**)

 

 

Yours faithfully,

 

 

 

[NAME HERE] -

OFT commented a couple of weeks back through their report on payday lenders (OFT 1446) that -

4.38 Issues highlighted in complaints included aggressive debt collection practices, such as threats to coerce payment and excessive collection charges, persistent and excessive telephone calls, including calling consumers at their place of work, refusal to accept offered repayment plans, refusing to deal with debt advisors and alleged misuse of continuous payment authority. We have also seen evidence of firms using misleading or deceptive practices in order to recover debts.

Don't be bullied by these people, get your complaints off.

Well just got a reply from my repayment request :

 

 

I apologise for the late reply.

 

Unfortunately we cannot accept that payment plan on your terms. I am more than happy set you up on payment plan however first we require a minimum payment of £90.00.

 

This will freeze your interest and allow you to pay your loan is monthly instalments.

 

At current you have incurred £20 of late fees and are set to incur a further £20 tomorrow.

 

Please contact me urgently to make this payment as soon as possible.

 

 

Kind Regards

 

David C

Rippedoff15,

 

I'm slightly surprised and more than interested that (maybe I've read this wrong) but Mr Lender are trying to charge you £90.00 for a repayment agreement? If so, have you contacted the OFT re their charges? Just because they're stipulated in their &C's does not mean they're fair an reasonable? Likewise, what are they charging you £20.00 per day for??!?!

Hi,

 

I assume the 90 GBP they are trying to charge are for a 'roll over' before setting up a repayment plan. They tried this with me to state I have to roll-over three times before they can set up a repayment plan. This is obviously against OFT guidelines. I would write them again stating that you are unable to roll over due to financial difficulties and that you are aware of the OFT guidelines and your rights and offer them again a repayment plan over 12 months for the original loan amount plus 1 month interest. Also state that you are refusing the default charges as you have informed them before default about your situation.

Hi, rippedoff I too am having the same fun as you. I am 2 days overdue and have incurred a £20 charge on my account they graciously offered to waive it if I paid today.

I have taken the bull by the horns and from the start offered a repayment plan and a token payment this month of £20 I firstly did this on the phone after making the lady aware I was recording, she took the same line as you have had in regards to pay the roll over fee. I then requested an email address to continue negotiations as I am not in the position to pay £90 for the privilege (customer.services AT mrlender.co.uk) after bidding farewell to the attempted bullying on the phone having explained to her I am aware of my rights e.t.c to which she smartly replied something about how she can quote oft fsa blah blah and they aren't in breach.

 

After about 5 hours I had heard nothing (impatient I know) I emailed the same email to the collections AT mrlender.co.uk they email you letting you know you've defaulted and was within 30minute replied too, so far 3 emails each way saying that I propose this and them saying no deal pay us £90. I even tried to appeal to the guys intelligent side by suggesting we can avoid the well documented sending and receiving of pointless emails and just come to my more than fair proposal... no deal.

 

I was keen to nip their phone harassment in the bud and told them not to ring me at work and the number they have hasn't been rung as far as I know (would have been told I hope).

 

This post is getting long I will cut n paste the email exchange in a following post, not sure you'll find it useful but it is interesting to share and compare, also anybody out there want to chip in its always appreciated.

email 1:

 

Hello,

 

This is in reference to my loan account which is now overdue in the name if ****** and I am wishing to set up a repayment plan. I have spoken to a customer service representative that was whilst helpful threatened me with further fines being made to account.

 

I am currently with out a debit card and am unable to make a card payment I am also not able to make a bank transfer today. I do however wish to agree to a plan with yourselves and am prepared to make a token payment this month as I am not in a position to pay any more until the end of January.

 

My proposal is to pay £20 to you by Friday via bank transfer. And then a further £78 at the start of February recurring for 5 months until the sum of £410 is paid. This is my total balance as it stands including £20 default for this months failed payment.

 

By doing this I am acknowledging my debt to you and am attempting to honor it.

 

I would also request that you only contact me via email in regards to this matter and should you need to phone me I only wish you to contact me on my mobile phone number ******.

 

I expressly state this I do not wish to contact my employer or any other phone numbers with which you hold in regards to me.

 

I hope you find this satisfactory and your prompt response would be much appreciated.

 

Regards,

 

******

Dear *****,

 

Thank you for your email.

 

Just to confirm you were due to make an interest payment of £90.00 on the 31/12/12 which has not been received.

 

Your account has now entered defaults status and you are incurring additional late fee charges due to non payment.

 

To setup a repayment plan with us you will need to pay the £90.00 interest that was due on 31/12/12.

 

Please note we are unable to accept part payment, should you fail to pay the full interest of £90.00 due your account will remain in collections where you will continue to incur charges.

 

Should you have any further queries please do not hesitate to contact us.

 

Kind Regards,

 

My Email 2:

 

Hi,

 

Firstly thank you for your prompt response, but I simply am not in a position to make a payment as I have explained on the phone and in my email. I am also well aware of my rights regarding fair treatment and what the oft deem reasonable. I am being more than reasonable in my offer to you. I am accepting the £20 charge to my account I am also including said roll over payment.

 

It is not the case that I need to make the roll over payment before you will talk to me regarding a payment plan. I have researched this deeply and whilst I am prepared to go down the long and arduous route of sending emails back and fourth in dispute of this and that, the end result will only be more work for you and I both.

 

Again my proposal is this:

a £20 token payment and then I wish to set up a standing order of £78 for 5 months.

Making £410.

 

A £20 default fee

The £300 loan

And the £90 rollover fee due for this month.

 

As I have stated I am receiving a new card and expressly deny you the right to try and take any money from my account this is needed for more pressing debts like council tax and any attempt by any means would be unlawful.

 

I have also requested that I only be contacted via email and the phone number ****** if entirely necessary. I do not wish there to be any breach of this and can you please confirm that this will be noted on my account whilst we deal with this issue.

 

Thanks,

 

Reply 2:

 

Dear ******,

 

Thank you for your email,

 

Just to confirm we are unable to accpet your proposal, as you have defaulted on your outstanding loan.

 

Please note to setup any repayment plan agreement we would need to received the outstanding interest due of £90.00 on your account.

 

Should you fail to repay the outstanding interest, your account will remain with our collection department were you will contiune to incurr missed interest and late fee charges.

 

Should you have any further queries please do not hesitate to contact us.

 

Kind Regards,

 

My final email of the day after 5.30 so didn't expect a response will be pursuing tomorrow/ today (3rd of jan):

 

Dear,

 

As I have stated I cannot afford to pay you £90 for the privilege of setting up a repayment plan further to this why would I pay you £90 without the knowledge that a payment plan is in place, should you be willing to negotiate a payment plan then the circumstances are different.

 

You are breaking many oft regulations by insisting I pay the rollover sum and if I have to escalate this then I will.

 

AGAIN. CAN YOU PLEASE CONFIRM THAT YOU WILL NOT BE ATTEMPTING TO CONTACT ME BY ANY OTHER MEANS (WORK NUMBER HOME NUMBET E.T.C) OTHER THAN THIS EMAIL AND IF ENTIRELY NECESSARY MY MOBILE PHONE NUMBER THAT YOU HOLD. FAILURE TO ADHERE TO THIS IS IN CONTRAVENTION OF SECTION 40 OF THE ADMINISTRATION OF JUSTICE ACT 1970 AND THE PROTECTION FROM HARASSMENT ACT 1997.

 

regards,

 

--- I should also add that on the second of his replies it had a generic signature attached giving me this guys direct line to his office, I didn't include this in the post as I would feel a tad hypocritical posting the guys work details on a public forum when I'm demanding he doesn't use mine. Still it appears to have been a slip as the first reply didn't have it. Nonetheless at least I can plague him with phone calls letting him know his reply to my email is overdue.

 

any advice always welcome

Have you lodged an official complaint with Mr Lender? If so, have they acknowledged? If not, (and in my experience, they're slow to respond) send a complaint to FOS. It's not the quickest service but I've found them fair.

 

What reason did they give for you refusing your offer?

 

Have a read of this website = http://www.stepchange.org/Infographics/Prioritydebts.aspx Just because they're demanding monies from you, does not mean they're entitled to have it before you have to pay priority debts. Have you tried giving them a clall? There's a great statement of -

 

"It’s important to understand which bills to pay first, especially if you’re in debt. While unsecured credit lenders, like payday loans lenders, may shout loudest, secured debts and tax bills should be paid first. These ensure you continue to have a home and heating.

Not paying priority debts or priority bills can lead to serious consequences for you and your family, as shown in the infographic. If you’re having problems paying priority bills or debts we can help with expert debt advice"
