    • we have known for a very very long time that 9/10 the OC never knows IRRWW are chasing debtors nor  in some cases even taking money from them that the OC never ever see!! IDRWW pockets it -  free money - lets all go on a staff holiday. there was an article some years back whereby that quoted some +£4M debtors had paid to IDRWW on UAE debts that when contacted the originating banks knew nothing about....😎  
    • let the ombudsman do their job. you'll win handsdown you dont obv owe OVO p'haps anything at all.  dont worry about Past Due credit or any other DCA ( THEY ARE NOT BAILIFFS!) as for you being added to the debt, thats quite OK, you were a resident adult and equally liable under law. once you start getting things moving via the  ombudsman dont forget to get your credit files cleansed of any negative data & seek compensation for distress etc, again the  ombudsman should sort both out for you. as you are now NOT a customer of OVO, there is very very little they can do to you now.  
    • A question - did you use the supermarket or the restaurant? I see the restrictions are different. Sign.pdf
    • DN is ok DCA NOA is ok, though not one from Newday saying they've sold it. agreement states esigned on a sunday at 11am?? really??  but no typed names or tick box nor any IP address used. if the date is correct then poss ok, it that your correct address for that time of take out? but if not, then that could simply be a copy of someone elses they've used with you details copy'n'pasted over theirs. the agreement details separate T&C's in at least 8.4. a full set of T&C containing your correct address for the time MUST be included. failure renders the agreement unenforceable... have you the T&C's too? dx
    • Npower and Scottish Power and others have always had regulations that require them to treat customers fairly - the threads here and my experiences demonstrate that those regs are little more than useless.   Even Octopus recently spent month after month saying they needed to increase my monthly payments despite my credit balance slowly going up TWICE I had to reset it online back to prior payment as they unilaterally increased it unilaterally. Raised formal complaint and they than said i was paying too much and reduced the payment, again without my agreement, although that time at least they told me they were doing it.   .. and Octopus has been one of the better ones.

    • 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.

Just take a copy of your orig letter,

addressed to , into any RBS branch

and require them to put it in Bank's secure Internal mail system.

 

 

Make a note of time, date and person who accepts it, for future ref.

 

RBS have an extensive internet presence,

so tel HO switchboard and ask for info.

 

 

Many Organisations do not reveal email addresses of senior staff, but may connect you to rel Sec/PA.

Sent email

- Funny really as did not expect reply so fast,

within two hours I had a reply saying this will be looked into and I will be repsonded to within 10 days.

 

all I can do now is have hope and keep the faith, otherwise nothing will change for me.

I will keep you updated.

 

Dissappointed they didnt respond to my letter and it took me emailing the CEO to get anywhere.

 

I have limited access to the internet so got to have the hope they realise this is all i can offer and get in touch soon, waiting is awful.Thank you for help so far. I am ignorign Wetcloths.H

Received reply from RBS

- They have informed me that my corrospondence has been passed to Westcot as they are responsible for the day to day management as account is with Westcot.

 

 

They said Westcot will contact me once reviewed my offer.

Is this normal?

I have continued to pay my 1.00 to RBS and ignored Westcot to date.

 

 

iS THIS WHAT USUALLY HAPPENS?

 

 

Kind RegardsHelen

You have a right to deal with the Original Creditor as the debt has not been sold on in full.

Tell them you wish to raise a formal complaint about the matter, and they will then be forced to deal with you.

I have received another email from RBS

- I had asked them if they have sold the debt to WESTCOTS.

 

They have replied to me with the following:

The debt remains with the bank but Westcot are now responsible for the day to day management which includes agreeing repaying plan and assessing settlement offers.

 

In view of this,

I have asked them to review the offer and contact you once a decision is made.

This is from the Executive Office RBS

 

i am confused, as they are telling me that it si up to Westcots and although I have gone to the top of RBS, they are insisting it is up to Westcots.

 

I have not contacted Westcots as RBS are doing that and I will hear from Westcots.

This must be the new way of doing things, passing the buck????

 

Dont understand why if debt is still with them that they go to the comapny they have managing it

- I now find myself confused and quite unsure of what happens now.

Thanks for help so far Helen

Wetcloths are not debt BUYERS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! so just ignore them,

stop silly letter tennis,

 

 

RBS are just being lazy )

No doubt thinking of sacking a lot of staff in the offices so the chairman can buy an expensive yacht as another CEO has and gets away with it)

 

 

cannot see why people waste time on Wetcloths and giving them monies for office parties at some peoples expense and leave people starving, Know what I would like to do with the people that runs these companies - enough said, pay RBS as you do now.

 

Do as I and 1000!s others do bin Westcot letters they give up after a few, and carry on regardless pay the owners only.

Hi Helen

How did you get on with your F&F offer to RBS/Wescot?

 

I haven't heard anything from Wescot for a few months when they said it was time for my annual review (first one since they started managing the debt) but if I was happy to continue paying £1 per month, then no need to contact them.
