    • Yes, but the process starts here... https://ico.org.uk/make-a-complaint/data-protection-complaints/what-to-expect/ This involves making a complaint to GS first before approaching ICO. However, at the time of the complaint, I beleive we'd advise the complainant to ask for some compensation and take it from there. @FTMDave?? No, I meant this forum, The Consumer Action Group, where you're posting right now.😄 (We're in the slow process of rebranding as The National Consumer Service.)
    • And yes, they state their client is EON and that they can return the debt to EON who can either register a default or take me to court. 
    • Thank you. The npower debt was from 2019/2020 until EON took over the account late 2021.   npower had set a DCA on me even though I owed them nothing. I spoke to a customer service agent, following up by email, who confirmed I was in credit . I made a complaint to head office who sent a barrage of emails, changing the amounts each time. According to them, I owed £279.   The debt grew to what it is now as first npower and then EON subsequently failed to put a payment arrangement and direct debit in place to pay off this supposed sum and my ongoing bills.   I was very ill with Covid, struggling in lockdown with a disabled child and informed them of all this.   EON stopped their legal action when I took them to the ombudsman as this was part of my complaint and requested remedy but I have not received a notice of discontinuance.    I would like to set up my own dd to pay them off but am concerned they could still take legal action. I am on a low income and can’t afford to pay them more than a token amount each month.

    • 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.

Hiya,

 

I just received another letter from CPP which included a "Compensation Claim Form".

 

One of the section on this form is "Section B: Why you want to be considered for compensation?".

 

I've had the CCP thing on my Barclays Credit Card since about 2006,

 

I do recall the Barclays staff urging me to take out this policy in order to protect from fraud, identity theft and such,

and they were very insistent that I take it out.

 

What would you recommend to put in this section?

 

Shall I just mention that I was aggressively mis-sold a policy that I did not need? Thanks!

 

P.S. Not sure if this is relevant,

but in December CPP took out another premium for this silly policy of 80 odd pounds from my Credit Card,

 

I immediately got in touch with the Barcalycard who advised I contact CPP directly and ask for cancelation and a refund,

which I promptly did as well as give them a earful about how ridiculous it is to continue to take money from customers for a useless product.

Well the letter does say, under a section titled Why you may be entitled to a refund that:

You may have been given misleading or unclear information when you were sold your card protection, such as: - the policy said it covered you fro up to £100,000 (figure varied over time) worth of unauthorised transactions that occur after you inform CPP that a card was lost or stolen. But you did not need this element of the product's cover because your bank or card issuer was responsible for any transactions after your card had been reported lost or stolen. - the policy said it covered you for up to £5000 (figure varied over time) worth of unauthorised transactions that occur before you inform CPP that a card was lost or stolen.But we did not explain that you would only be liable for unauthorised transactions in limited circumstances, as your bank or card issuer would usually cover you for anything over the first £50 of those transactions. You may also have other concerns with the way your card protection policy was sold to you
Going with the above, I guess maybe I should write something along the lines of:
I want to be considered for compensation because the policy was aggressively mis-sold to me by a Barcalycard/CPP representative who presented misleading and unclear information as a result of which I took on a policy which I did not need as I was already adequately protected by my credit card issuer.
Do you think the above is sufficient?

Azer - just rec'd same package and come accross your thread looking for the answer to the same question.

 

hope caggers in the know might provide some help.

you simply use the wording given in the letter containing the claim form,the cpp policies said exactly what they have stated, so you were given unclear and misleading information when you were sold the policy

just to be absolutely clear the policy figures in Jan 2005 were £50,000 and £1,000, increasing to £100,000 and £5,000 by 2008, which is why they say "figure varied over time", and dont forget if you bought or renewed prior to 14/01/2005, claim prior to that date from your credit card supplier at the int rate they charged you

REF: CPP "Compensation Claim Form".

 

 

What to fill In "Section B: Why you want to be considered for compensation?"

 

 

Keep it short and sweet and straight to the point, simply write:

 

 

1. I didn’t realise the plan was being offered by CPP, a third party

 

 

2. I was not aware you were already covered by the bank’s own anti-fraud policies

 

3. My bank told me it was an essential purchase

 

4. I purchased your policy based on unclear information

 

5. The risks the insurance protects against were overstated

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I do recall the Barclays staff urging me to take out this policy in order to protect from fraud, identity theft and such,

and they were very insistent that I take it out.

 

What would you recommend to put in this section?

 

Shall I just mention that I was aggressively mis-sold a policy that I did not need? Thanks!

Just received a cheque yesterday for £60.20 for having CPP for around 2 years on a credit card a long time ago.

I pretty much used the wording in the claim form.

I was misled / not made aware that I was already sufficiently covered under existing banking/credit card regulations.

2 letters, 2 replies sent back, 2 mins of my time and a £60 refund / result.

Thanks to people from CAG and like minded people bringing this out in the open.
