    • If a DCA supplies a reconstituted copy of the CCA what would be the next step. It seems that a reconstituted copy must be a " true copy " of the executed agreement, it must contain the Prescribed Terms. But given that there is no copy of the applicants signature surely it could be an agreement form with the details filled in. How can it be assumed that this " copy " represents a true copy that the claimant has supposed to have signed. Cabot have demonstrated a bit of sabre rattling when they say "Until we're able to provide this information , your account is unenforceable. This means we're not permitted to obtain a County Court judgement against you . Whilst we cannot pursue legal action, your balance remains outstanding ". I looked up a case... Cabot UK Ltd  v  Bachellier (2010) which might help, but it's tough reading, I'd prefer to plough through War and Peace. This particular case with Cabot is not huge , approx' £140, but the only other worry that I have is also with Cabot...£2100. They may try to make a point with lesser case.

    • 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.

Good afternoon.

 

I have received 2 letters, from a company called "Robinson Way" who appear to be claiming a debt of £279 upon me.

 

The thing is, I have never taken out any loans, nor entered into any credit agreement, or anything like that. Ever.

 

According to the letters this Robinson Way Ltd are managing an account on behalf of an HPH Ltd (Ex Style), where or how this 'debt' has come into existence I have no idea though.

 

The letters have these details inside a box:

 

Due to: HPH Ltd (Ex Style)

Our Reference: *********

Account Number: ****************

Amount Due: £279.20

 

I'm baffled, but also rather worried. And annoyed.

 

Who are these people?

 

:suspicious:

 

I ought to add, having no dealings with this sort of thing before, I am not familiar with legal terms / acronyms / etc.

 

Thanks in anticipation.

1 debt... 2 letters, one Notice of Assignment as such and the other being a general threatogram...

 

Honestly... Robbers way are part of Hoist and not really what i would call dangerous in the sense.

Could be just phishing letters... Choice is yours with what you want to do .

 

I would send a CCA Request to see if they can collect it. Could be interesting what they come back with

 

We could do with some help from you.

If it is not your debt then they will be in trouble for giving out the details to the wrong person. You could write to them denying any debt to any party and demand proof of the debt. I bet they have the wrong middle name, DOB or the like and have just sent out the letter to an address that is a close match to what they have.

Thanks for your replies.

 

The thing is, as I stated above I have never had any loan/finance/credit stuff.

 

So how could they have my details and where are they creating or finding this debt from?

 

I've never encountered anything like this before and I'm really worried by it.

 

Thanks

nothing to be worried about

 

DCA 's are NOT BAILIFFS

 

and the have

 

NO SUCH BAILIFF LEGAL POWERS.

 

have you ever looked at your credit file?

 

dx

please don't hit Quote...just type we know what we said earlier..

DCA's view debtors as suckers, marks and mugs

NO DCA has ANY legal powers whatsoever on ANY debt no matter what it's Type

and they

are NOT and can NEVER  be BAILIFFS. even if a debt has been to court..

If everyone stopped blindly paying DCA's Tomorrow, their industry would collapse overnight...

Hi you would be wise to check your credit reference files to see it shows there the detail may help ID the alleged creditor.

The CCA request is a very good idea do asap.

 

If you are absolutely sure that you have no such debt come back here I can draft a letter for you to try to sort this out.

 

Please don't worry about this it can be resolved quite quickly, also if RW or Hoist phone refuse to answer security questions and tell them you will deal with this matter in writing only.

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

Yes, I am absolutely sure.

Thanks, I don't think they have my phone number, I haven't called them yet as i thought it wise to seek advice first.

 

Afterthought:

although thinking back there was one strange phone call around 4 months ago.

 

My mobile rang, from a withheld number,

a lady asked to speak to me in the form "Mr. *****".

 

At the time it seemed odd so I quickly replied "Excuse me, who is this, you're calling from a withheld number and I don't know who you are".

She replied along the lines of "I can't give that information for security reasons" and

I answered "Well in that case I have to hang up then".

Nobody called back, so I never did find out who that was.

:suspicious:

Probably un-related though.

Sounds just about right with held number security questions etc., typical DCA tactics.

 

Would you like a letter to see if we can end this now?

^thanks again

 

Oh nearly forgot - how do I go about checking my credit reference files without charge?

 

Also - I don't suppose anybody has any idea who or what (Ex Style) is, as maybe that would be a clue to who is claiming a debt?

Hi Loanly

 

They ask for your card details purely for verification purposes...there is no charge on Noddle - it is free.

 

Your "prove it" letter (where you know nothing of the debt) is in the CAG library here

Argh!

 

Sorry, we haven’t been able to verify and validate your identity and can’t provide your credit report.

 

We’re sorry but unfortunately we’re not able to provide you with access to your credit report as we’ve not been able to automatically verify and validate your identity. As your credit report contains such personal and important financial information we need to make sure that we only make it available to the right person.

 

We're unable to tell you the exact reason that we couldn’t verify your identity but some of the most common reasons are a recent house move or name change, not being on the Electoral Roll or that the credit card details provided couldn’t be verified, this could be due to the card being relatively new.

 

We regularly make updates to our processes and we hope that this will allow more people to be automatically matched so please do come back and try again.

 

If you’ve any questions, or would like further information, please email us at [email protected].

 

The Noddle Team
