    • I'm still pondering/ trying to find docs re the above issue. Moving on - same saga; different issue I'm trying to understand what I can do: The lender/ mortgagee-in-possession has a claim v me for alleged debt. But the debt has only been incurred due to them failing to sell property in >5y. I'm fighting them on this.   I've been trying to get an order for sale for 2y.  I got it legally added into my counterclaim - but that will only be dealt with at trial.  This is really frustrating. The otherside's lawyers made an application to adjourn trial for a few more months - allegedly wanting to try sort some kind of settlement with me and to use the stay to sell.  At the hearing I asked Judge to expedite the order for sale. I pointed out they need a court-imposed deadline or this adjournment is just another time wasting tactic (with interest still accruing) as they have no buyer.  But the judge said he could legally only deal with the order at trial. The otherside don't want to be forced to sell the property.. Disclosure has presented so many emails which prove they want to keep it. I raised some points with the judge including misconduct of the receiver. The judge suggested I may have a separate claim against the receiver?   On this point - earlier paid-for lawyers said my counterclaim should be directed at the lender for interference with the receiver and the lender should be held responsible for the receiver's actions/ inactions.   I don't clearly understand that, but their legal advice was something to do with the role a receiver has acting as an agent for a borrower which makes it hard for a borrower to make a claim against a receiver ???.  However the judge's comment has got me thinking.  He made it clear the current claim is lender v me - it's not receiver v me.  Yet it is the receiver who is appointed to sell the property. (The receiver is mentioned/ involved in my counterclaim only from the lender collusion/ interference perspective).  So would I be able to make a separate application for an order for sale against the receiver?  Disclosure shows receiver has constantly rejected offers. He gave a contract to one buyer 4y ago. But colluded with the lender's lawyer to withdraw the contract after 2w to instead give it to the ceo of the lender (his own ltd co) (using same lawyer).  Emails show it was their joint strategy for lender/ ceo to keep the property.  The receiver didn't put the ceo under any pressure to exchange quickly.  After 1 month they all colluded again to follow a very destructive path - to gut the property.  My account was apparently switched into a "different fund" to "enable them to do works" (probably something to do with the ceo as he switched his ltd co accountant to in-house).   Interestingly the receiver told lender not to incur significant works costs and to hold interest.  The costs were huge (added to my account) and interest was not held.   The receiver rejected a good offer put forward by me 1.5y ago.  And he rejected a high offer 1y ago - to the dismay of the agent.  Would reasons like this be good enough to make a separate application to the court against the receiver for an order for sale ??  Or due to the main proceedings and/or the weird relationship a borrower has with a receiver I cannot ?
    • so a new powerless B2B debt DCA set up less than a month ago with a 99% success rate... operating on a NWNF basis , but charging £30 to set up your use of them. that's gonna last 5mins.... = SPAMMERS AND SCAMMERS. a DCA is NOT a BAILIFF and have  ZERO legal powers on ANY debt - no matter WHAT its type. dx

    • You could send an SAR to DCbl on the pretext that you are going for a breach of your GDPR . They should then send the purported letter of discontinuance which may show why it ended up in Gloucester and see if you can get your  costs back on the day. It obviously won't be much but  at least perhaps a small recompense for your wasted day. Not exactly wasted since you had a great win  albeit much sweeter if you had beat them in Court. But a win is a win so well done. We will miss you as it has been almost two years since you first started out on this mission. { I would n't be surprised if the wrong Court was down to DCBL}. I see you said "till the next time" but I am guessing you will be avoiding private patrolled car parks for a while.🙂
    • It is extremely disappointing that you haven't told us anything about the result of the hearing. You came here at the very last minute and the regulars - all unpaid volunteers - sweated blood trying to get an acceptable Witness Statement prepared in an extremely short time. The least you could have done is tell us how the hearing went, information invaluable for future users. Evidently not.

    • 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.

7th April - Letter received from Branch:

 

"As per the Data Protection Request Act, and in reference to your original request, if it is purely copy statements that you require then this is not covered under the act, as these are documents that have been issued to you previously.

 

If you do require copy statements we can arrange this for you at a cost of £5.00/statement.

 

If you wish to contact the branch on any of the above points please call directly on 0131 456 4501"

 

Called branch at 4pm to argue this, "Manager busy, will get her to call you back"

 

No call recieved, so rang again at 4:30, "Manager still unavailable, will call you back in next 5 - 10 mins..." Still waiting for call back

Me?

 

At this point, I would write to say: "Original DPA sent on x date, you have as of today x days left to comply. Furthermore, if info is even 1 day late in coming, I am making formal complaint to the IC. Charge is max £10, as you very well know, stop fobbing me off. I have requested a list of charges and interventions on my account, how you supply is your choice. If you want to send statements, it's up to you, I'm not fussed, as long as I get the relevant info." Phrased better, of course.

 

I'm concerned about your last sentence: "I am requesting TRANSACTIONS, not CHARGES".

What do you mean by that? Of course, you need to know what charges were made! If you receive a list saying: 10/3, + £20, 11/3, -£35, and it doesn't say what's what, you're going to have a hell of a job knowing what was applied to your account for what.

I hope it was a typo and you meant, you're requesting a list of transactions and charges, not statements.

Dont expect much co-operation from this shower. In 2001 The Banking Ombudsman found several counts of maladministration against Yorkshire Bank, one of the counts related to the manner in which they handled requests for information from the Banking Ombudsman

 

Responses to DPA requests that I made to this outfit (YB) produced various replies (Pre the Durant Judgment)

and I quote

"Within the terms of the Act we have 40 days in which to provide you with the information we hold. In order to facilitate this process and ensure you receive the information to meet your request, I would be grateful if you could advice me of your individual requirements. For example duplicate statements, repayments schedules on lending and details of interest paid etc. A £10 fee is payable......"

 

As this was not the personal information that I was seeking I was advised by the Information Commissioner to re-apply a few months down the line when the 2nd part of the Act relating to manual Information came into force.

 

This time the bank replied-

"I would advise that the bank has already provided you with all the information that you are entitled to receive. Clearly the bank would not be in a position to release any such document which may prejudice the bank at a later stage"

BookWorm - thanks again for your pointers,

 

It was indeed a typo, here's what I sent to them this afternoon:

 

--- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- ---

 

"Thank you for your letter dated 6th April 2006.

 

There appears to have been some confusion on your part as to my original request.

 

I refer you to my original letter to your branch, on the 8th March, which clearly states:

 

"Please supply me with a complete list of transactions and charges relating to my bank account since the opening date of my Current Account, which I estimate to be around September 2001. Alternatively a complete set of bank statements for that period will be acceptable. “

 

May I please remind you that under the terms of Section 7(1) of the Data Protection Act 1998 (the ‘1998 Act’), you are obliged to furnish me with this information, within 40 days. To help speed this matter along, please find enclosed the fee of £10.00 with respect to the maximum statuary fee for processing this request.

 

If you continue to delay in providing me with this information, I will have little alternative than to lodge a complaint with the Information Commissioner, as already after 2 letters (one of which a form that you sent to me) and 8 phone calls to your branch I am still waiting for a satisfactory response."

Quick question:

 

I failed to send in the payent of £10 along with my 1st letter to them (8th March), will I now have to wait for 40 days from the day they received this £10 or can I have a go at them & push for the original deadline.?

 

Thanks

James

I think legally they have 40 days from when you send payment in. I'm sure someone more in the know will clarify this though.

However, I didn't send the payment with my request either (it was before it was added to the template letter) but when I sent them a reminder last week I enclosed the cheque then. So far no-one has contacted me to say the 40 days count down from payment so so far so good. Also when I called network support to speak specifically about the request she didn't mention it either and was happy to stick to the origional request date. Mind you, no-one seems to have a clue as to the date I sent it anyway and they relied on me telling them!

Maybe it will be ok for you too. I'm not saying to argue this point with them, I'm just saying maybe they will overlook the lack of payment. I just stuck to my origional date knowing full well that they could get out of it but they didn't. If you read my thread it seems that all requests are going to network support then refered back to the branch so it may be worth giving network support a call.

I have a name and contact number should you require it

Contact details would be great - yes please.! I'm getting nowhere fast with the Branch Manager (who's getting a letter of complaint sent in about her today as it happens) so any other angles to try will be gladly received.

Letter received from the Branch this morning:

 

--- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- ---

 

Dear Mr JMio,

 

I refer to your recent letter dated 10 April 2006 in relation to your request about receiving copy statements under the Data Subject Acess Request.

 

As you will appreciate, I need to make investigations into the points you have raised. In the meantime I thank you for your patience in this matter and I will contact you as soon as my investigations are complete.

 

I have enclosed for your information a copy of our internal Complaint Handling Procedures. These procedures confirm how to pursue your complaint and how to refer your complaint to the Financial Ombudsman Service if you cannot resolve the matter.

 

Yours sincerely

 

Elaine Notman

Manager

AAARRRGGGH!!!

 

My head's pounding now!

 

Spoke to the branch this morning to claify (again!) that I am not requesting statements, I am requesting Transations.

 

Ended up going round in circles with both the branch & customer relations centre.

 

Their stance is that they will provide details of my transactions back dated until July 2005 under the DPA & for the fee of £10 that I've sent in.

 

All transactions after that they are only prepared to send Copy Statements with a charge of £5 per statement.

 

I called the above number at Network Support (spoke to a different Fiona) and they are taking the exact same stance as the branch.

 

Can anyone help me please.? I really don't want it to un the the 40 day deadline & end up being delayed even further.!!

On a slightly lighter note:

 

My conversation with the woman at Customer Relations (0141 242 4137) raised a smile, after quoting stuff to her from the IC website, she went to speak to her line manager & called me back.

 

Gave me the same spiel about £10 covers up to July 05, then it's £5 a month etc etc...

 

So I asked to speak to this line manager that had been giving her this information. Needless to say he wasn't available, so I said I'd hold until he came off the call he must be on. "No no, he's in a meeting" so I asked her when he was due to come out of this meeting "I don't know he's been there all day.."

 

"So, how exactly was it that you managed to speak to him then, what with him being in a meeting all day..?"

 

"....... silence......"

Hi Jmio,

It must be driving you mad! To be honest, what I'd do is write them a letter asking them to clarify their position on the dpa request. When you receive an answer get straight in touch with the information comissioner. Simple as that. If you have it in writing that they're refusing your request it will stand you in good stead to be able to prove it to the IC. Either that or call them again asking them to confirm in writing. Either way they're in the wrong and they know it. I'd be suprised if they refuse you again if you mention reporting them to the IC. Remember though, that they aren't calling the shots now, YOU are and remember you have every right to! Get tough and make sure they know you mean business!

Good luck and keep us informed :o)

It appears that poor Fiona must be having to deal with it all on her own. My letter was from her too - she'll be ready for a holiday by the time us lot have done lol

 

As far as the details from July 05 are concerned Jmio, I'm sure that if you estimated the amount, i.e the maximum, they will be the first to point out if you've over-estimated.

I've sent a letter to Fiona Hutton as advised to see if she can help in sending me the info.

 

I'm also thinking of sending in a letter to the Call Centre supervisor I spoke to (Neil McKirdy) to ask for written clarification on their view of the DPA.

 

I'll post any / all replies on here as usual.

Copy of letters sent into Clydesdale Bank today:

 

To Fiona Hutton:

 

--- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- ---

 

Dear Fiona Hutton,

 

SORT CODE: ******

ACCOUNT NUMBER: ********

 

I write to you in the hope that you will be able to assist me with my request to obtain details of all transactions and charges relating to my account since its opening date, around September 2001.

 

I originally submitted my request to the Festival Square branch in Edinburgh on the 8th March 2006, and then followed this up with another request accompanied with the £10.00 fee applicable for providing this service (which the branch have confirmed has been received).

 

Unfortunately, neither the branch nor Customer Relations departments have provided me with any assistance, and after contacting others in a similar situation I have been advised to contact you directly.

 

I sincerely hope that you are able to help me with this.

 

Yours faithfully,

 

JMio

And to the Customer Relations Manager (Neil McKirdy) that I spoke to on last Thursday (13th April) that told me that the Clydesdale's view of the DPA was that they are only obliged to provide details of transactions dating back to July 2005.

 

--- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- ---

 

Dear Neil McKirdy,

 

SORT CODE: ******

ACCOUNT NUMBER: ********

 

I write to you with reference to our conversation on Thursday the 13th April 2006 regarding my request to be supplied with all transactions and charges relating to my account since it’s opening, around September 2001.

 

During our conversation, you informed me that the Clydesdale Bank’s interpretation of the Data Protection Act (1998) was that only information held about customers on your systems dating back until July 2005 was covered (and would therefore be supplied) under the act. As a result, your intentions were then to apply further over-inflated charges to my account (in the form of £5 per copy statement, which I must point out I have never at any point requested), in order to supply me with the remainder of this information.

 

Can I please ask you to confirm to me, in writing, the Bank’s position on the Data Protection Act Access Request procedure, and in particular why it is that you have been unwilling to provide me with the details held on your systems relating to my account under the act.

 

Yours faithfully,

 

JMio

Received a letter this morning from Fiona Hutton - Not good news!

 

--- --- ---

 

Dear Mr JMio,

 

DATA PROTECTION ACT 1998 - DATA SUBJECT REQUEST ACCESS REQUEST

--- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- ---

 

Thank you for your letter in view of your request for copies of your financial/banking statements.

 

I confirm that we shall be able to provide you with copies of your bank statements from July 2005 onwards, under tha right of access under the Data Protection Act 1998. The fee of £10 which you have already paid will apply to this information only.

 

The statement information that we hold prior to July 2005 is, however, outside the scope of the Data Protection Act 1998 and need not be provided by the Bank in response to your request. Copies of such statements are, however, available at a charge of £5 per statement.

 

Within the terms of the Data Protection Act 1998 we have 40 days in which to provide you with the information we hold in respect of the period of July 2005 onwards.

 

I look forward to hearing from you, and if I can be of any further assistance, please do not hesitate to contact me.

 

Yours sincerely

 

Fiona Hutton

I can't believe, that even after all my letters & phone calls they're STILL taking thia approach.!? I've explained my self time & time again that it's TRANSACTIONS & CHARGES that I require, not Statements in specific.

 

 

I could really use a bit of advice with how to approach my response here please.

I confirm that we shall be able to provide you with copies of your bank statements from July 2005 onwards, under tha right of access under the Data Protection Act 1998. The fee of £10 which you have already paid will apply to this information only.

 

The statement information that we hold prior to July 2005 is, however, outside the scope of the Data Protection Act 1998 and need not be provided by the Bank in response to your request. Copies of such statements are, however, available at a charge of £5 per statement.

 

Within the terms of the Data Protection Act 1998 we have 40 days in which to provide you with the information we hold in respect of the period of July 2005 onwards.

I've just received statements this morning - I requested info from March 2000 onwards, but I guess this letter you've received explains why I've only got them from August 2005 onwards. Thing is, I've still got these statements so the muppets haven't dealt with my request at all!

Hiya, I've just phoned Network Support and spoken to Aileen (Fiona Hutton only works Monday - Thursday). Nice enough lady but still sticking to their guns of all info held from July 2005 onwards is covered under the DPA and will be supplied for my £10 fee, anything prior to that is subject to a £5 per statement charge.

 

I then mentioned that I am a member of the Bank Action Forum, and that I was aware of the similar problems that other people have been having, some successful after the IC intervened. She then went away for a few minutes and told me that a member of their Complaince Section would be getting in touch with me shortly.

 

Let's see what THIS lot have got to say then eh.!?

Thanks for that - keep us posted. Surely it's wrong that they won't give info under the DPA before July 05 - that's not even a year ago!

I've just spoken to Aileen myself, she was quite helpful. She couldn't understand why I'd only got statements going back to Aug 05 when my account is with Yorkshire Bank. She said I should have received all the info, but if my account had been with Clydesdale then that only goes back to last year.

That's wierd isn't it.!? Yorkshire Bank records are Ok for any length of time, but Clydesdale's are only vaild from July 2005.? Something doesn't seem right there to me, but we'll wait and see what this bod that's due to call me says (Needless to say he's not phoned me back yet by the way...)

 

If any of the Legals on here have any advice on what my next approach should be it'd be greatly appreciated please. The Clydesdale Bank are proving to be a very very tough nut to crack so far.!

Have a look at my thread - it explains what I've been told by a guy at the bank re change in styles of statements - maybe that happened with Clydesdale too?

Just a quick note to say I've received a standard reply from Neil McKirdy saying he needs time to investigate the points raised in my letter to him (so, he needs to investigate what HE SAID TO ME!! then!?).

 

Also that I've not received any calls / contact from their Compliance Team yet.
