    • okay, perfect and thank you so much for the help once again. so firstly i am going to initiate the breathing space, during this time it's likely ill receive a default. when i receive the default are you aware of how long it will take for me to know whether the OC have sold it off to DCAs? Once it's with the DCAs i do not need to worry as they cannot issue a CCJ only the OCs can Even if i decide to come an arrangement with the DCAs no point as the default will remain for 6 years paid or not paid I should only consider repayment if the OC still won the debt and then issue a CCJ? Just to confirm the default will not be seen after 6 years? No one can tell I had one then after 6 years ill be all good?
    • I'm not sure we were on standard tariffs - I've uploaded as many proofs as I can for the ombudsman - ovo called last night uping the compensation to 100 from 50 pounds for the slip in customer service however they won't acknowledge the the problem them not acknowledging a fault has caused nor are they willing to remedy anything as they won't accept the meter or formula was wrong.   I'd appreciate more details on the economy 7 approach and I'll update the ombudsman with any information you can share. 
    • To re-iterate and highlight my urgent question on this one: The N24 from the court did not include any instructions to submit paperwork 28 days before the date, unlike the N157 received for other smaller claims. Do I have to submit a WS for this court date? Link has!...
    • No, reading the guidance online it says to wait for a letter from the court. Should I wait or submit the directions? BTW, I assume that the directions are a longer version of the particular of claim accompanied by evidence, correct?
    • Thanks for opening, it's been another rough year for my family and I've procastinated a little.. Due to the age of my defaults on this and other accounts (circa 2021), I really need to avoid a CCJ as that will be another 6 years of credit issues. Mediation failed as I played the 'not enough info to make a decision' however during the call for some reason they did offer settlement at 80%, I refused. this has been allocated to small claims track, court date is June 3 and I've received their WS. I'm starting on my WS. They do appear to have provided everything required of them (even if docs could be reconstructions). Not really sure what my argument is anymore but I do want to attend court and see this through. Should a judgement be made against me then I will clear the balance within 30 days and have the CCJ removed - this is still possible isn't it? I'm going to be reading up today and tomorrow and hope you can provide me some guidance in the meantime. Wonder what your advice would be given the documents they have provided? I am now in a position to clear the debt either by lump sum or a few large installments - Is this something i should look into at this late stage? Thanks as always in advance

    • 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.

I`ll be brief because I suspect this subject has been discussed elsewhere,

however I have trawled through pages of threads without success.

 

I have received my SAR from Welcome Finance for the five loans and HP I had with them from 1999 through to 2002.

 

Aviva have paid up £1700 PPI redress for one of the post 2000 loans

but are refusing to pay for the other post 2000 HP Loan as they say the PPI was clearly evident on the form.

 

What they have done in error is state that I was in full time employment.

 

I was working full time, but I was self-employed as a trade plate driver for United Fleet Distribution.

That was why I went to Welcome in the first place because they were the only loan company who would lend to me

because of my employment status.

 

they gerrymandered the forms saying that I was working full time, without saying I was self-employed.

 

I am going to challenge Aviva on this second PPI refusal.

 

However, my question refers to the other 3 loans which were taken out prior to 2000.

 

Aviva say they were not the underwriters at that time.

 

Other threads on here suggest that the FSCS are only taking responsibility for post 2005 Welcome loans.

So who do I claim against for the 3 pre-2000 loans?

 

I know from the SAR documents that PPI was charged and the amounts involved.

However, I do not know who was the underwriter.

 

Furthermore, I actually signed the documents at the Welcome Finance offices in Stockport and not at any brokers or loan brokers offices.

 

I am hoping someone on here might save me the time and trouble and point me in the right direction.

 

If it cannot be done, well I will have to lump it,

but I now have the proof that PPI was charged on all 3 of the pre-2000 loans.

Hi,

I didn't claim for the Welcome pre-2000 loans because it was not stated who was the underwriter. I might have another look at it though, thanks.

Regarding the Aviva one, it was a HP loan with the PPI front loaded and interest charged monthly. This has been in the hands of the Ombudsman since January 2015. However they have recently sent me a decision which was not to uphold my complaint. When I read the adjudicator`s reasons, it was clear he had not read any of my submissions properly, so I rang them to complain. In the meantime I revisited my correspondence with Aviva, and having scrutinised it thoroughly, I found a written admission that Welcome had told them that they had never discussed PPI with me at any time when signing for loans, including this HP loan.

With that and some other damning facts, the lady sent me an appeal form.

Within 2 days I had a call to say that a senior adjudicator had reversed the decision and upheld my complaint. The letter to Aviva, a copy of which was sent to me, made damning reading, to the point that the lady in question suggested that any appeal would be futile and gave them 10 days to make me an offer.

I am still waiting for a letter from Aviva, but the bank holiday has intervened. I will post their reply as soon as it arrives.

If you have an address for the Lloyds Insurers who dealt with Welcome I would greatly appreciate it.

 

Regards

 

Chris

Have you got an address for Lloyds?

Hi, I have just seen your message; I do have an address amidst paperwork and will dig it out tomorrow for you; I too have asked for my claim to be revisited as it was declined by an adjudicator who I believe has not addressed all the issues surrounding my claim, now another waiting game; good luck with yours, Ameeta

Hi, the email address is [email protected]

Nicola Hills case complaints officer - 0207 327 5693

 

The society of Lloyds wrote to me staying Aviva were the underwriters and I did give this info to the Ombudsmans to no avail, they said it was out of time and I still cannot understand why because I was forced to take the ppi and when I neede it the most during illness just after childbirth they refused to pay out; the Ombudsman is currently relooking at the complaint that was declined by them last year, good luck and I hope this helps

Hi All,

 

After a bit of research it seems that the loan in question (taken out in March 2000) was underwritten by 3 different underwriters. Lloyds syndicate 582 (AA Cassidy & others) 40%. SCOR UK limited 35% and Zurich Insurance 25%.

 

I have emailed the complaints department of all parties with my name, dob and welcome financial ac number. I have requested repayment of premiums plus 8% interest since the PPI was mis sold. I have asked that the complaint be forwarded to the relevant department for a response.

 

My question now is this. If, as I expect, they simply say no or ' too long ago' or Welcome was not 'regulated' at the time. - this is the reason the FOS won't take it on, can I simply issue a money claim in the small claims court against all three companies, using the details on companies house for the name of their managing director/registered address. ?

 

This may be very simplistic but in my mind, regardless of regulation, time, etc, these people still took a lot of money from me under false pretences . I was told that it was an obligatory part of the loan, that I couldn't have the loan without the repayments being 'protected'

.

I was not aware that it was completely unsuitable for me as I have been a civil servant since 1996 have full sick pay for 6 months and 6 months half pay. On top of that, my pre existing health condition (since age 24 (was 32 at time of loan) would have precluded any claim.

Excellent work. I hope you get the answer you want. In the meantime, I will have to speak to the adjudicator in my case this week, so I will ask her about this. Any useful information I will post on here.

Hi,

 

I had a few loans that were not regulated ect from 2004 which the FOS would not take on, despite being told many times by the companies involved that they would defend any court claims I made and they were adamant they would not pay back any PPI or interest stating they would get the claims thrown out of court as they were statute barred and not regulated ect ect.

 

I issued three court claims and each time I was paid in full before the court calling dates.

 

This was in Scotland so I'm not so sure how you would go about it in England but would thinks it's well worth a shot.

Any advice I give is honest and in good faith.:)

If in doubt, you should seek the opinion of a Qualified Professional.

Hi, my loan was taken out in May 2000 and the underwriters were the same as yours however when I contacted each underwriter they said that Aviva were responsible, The society if Lloyds wrote to me stating this; I gave the Ombudsman this info and they still did not uphold my complaint saying it was out of time; I have asked for the complaint to be looked at again but don't hold much hope

Hello and Welcome Kenny,

 

The companies I took to court were not connected to Lloyds or Welcome Finance but they were based in England and it was possible to persue them from Scotland.

Two of the claims were Small Claims actions and the other was an Ordinary Cause action.

 

As dx100 as suggested it would be better if you started a new thread on your case.

 

Regards,

 

Scott.
