    • Our price is the same all day, but varies day to day. Yes there's a risk of high prices but it has never gone above SVR any time since I signed up. Last 30 days average 17.67p/kWh, max 20.67 and lowest was 11.83.  It saved just under £300 during 2023.  
    • It you had E7 in the past but have converted to single rate then the meter will still hold the last recorded Night readings. This introduces scope for error when manually reading. If the meter has only ever been used on single rate then there's only one figure that can be taken. For example ours shows "Rate 1" reading and a "Total import" reading, but they both give the sme figure. If it has ever been on E7 the total will be higher, including the retained night reading.
    • 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!...

    • 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.

Quarterly statment recieved today

 

On the first page arrears balance 537.81 61.60 less than what came out yesterday dated 2 days before this one.

 

But they are claiming on this that Nov,dec,jan were missed at 231. Which doesn’t add up considering Nov payment was supposed to be only 74.83 😂

sorry not had much time

i'll try over the W/End.

 

one point on whatever letter.

it should be headed, I do not acknowledge any debt to you or your agents.

 

 

I don't think we can link the two halves...old charges etc not subject to this later half of loans can't be be used, sadly I cant see anyone agreeing that because welcome owed you more at the point of the 2nd half, than what the 2nd loan was for, they should not have loaned to you = IRL.

 

however, my thoughts are still very much with IRL playing the major part here, whichever way you switch it out, the 2nd series of loans WAS very irresponsible lending by welcome.

DMS Debt collectors are out. Haven’t been to mine went to ex’s on mon now I’ve just been given letter.

 

I think it’s time for a letter now as they already know damn well where I live so why send them to other adresss? Still no response to Nov letter. Cheek of these is unreal.

 

Excel started this time last year too. And although these are 2 different company’s with 2 different adressses the agents name and contact no is same on DMS as excels.

 

Prime have also written again 7 days after last one. Now things are starting to follow the same pattern as this time last year..

 

What route do I go now now?

 

And also they clearly say on debt collection letter Lender is Prime Credit 5 .

 

It’s Alpha credit solutions 4 sarl named on the LR title deeds.

What do I do?? You said this jan 2017 and within 2 months court was issued

 

 

one point on whatever letter.

it should be headed, I do not acknowledge any debt to you or your agents

 

How can I write this with the 2 year saga that’s been going on?

 

You have recently tried to contact me regarding the account with the above reference number which you claim is owed by myself. Using DMS Debt Management Services Limited. At an old address of xxxxxxxx which you are fully aware that I have not lived at since Jan 2014.

 

I have no knowledge of any such debt being owed to Prime Credit 5.

 

I have familiarised myself with the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) consumer credit sourcebook which states the following rules.

 

"A firm must not ignore or disregard a customer's claim that a debt has been settled or is disputed and must not continue to make demands for payment without providing clear justification and/or evidence as to why the customer's claim is not valid." 7.5.3

 

"A firm must suspend any steps it takes or its agent takes in the recovery of a debt from a customer where the customer disputes the debt on valid grounds or what may be valid grounds." 7.14.1

 

"Where a customer disputes a debt on valid grounds or what may be valid grounds, the firm must investigate the dispute and provide details of the debt to the customer in a timely manner." 7.14.3

 

In not ceasing collection activity whilst investigating a reasonably queried or disputed debt you are using deceptive/and or unfair methods.

 

Furthermore, ignoring and/or disregarding claims that debts have been settled or are disputed and continuing to make unjustified demands for payment amounts to physical/psychological harassment.

 

I would ask that no further contact be made concerning the above accounts unless you can provide evidence as to my liability for the debt in question..

 

I politely request you only contact me at the correspondence address you already have on file for me. Please be advised that I will only communicate with you in writing. I have noted your repeated attempts to contact me over the past few weeks and these have been duly logged by time and date.

 

Taking the above into account I would also like to bring to your attention my last letter dated 8/11/18. Which you have failed to respond to. This is yet another letter added to a long list which you are failing to address my issues or even provide some clarity on the situation. For ref after the last court hearing these letters are dated 19/07/, 05/09 and 10/10/2018.

 

 

Should it be your intention to arrange a doorstep visit, please be advised that according to the Financial Conduct Authority's consumer credit sourcebook it is an unfair and improper business practice to make such threats.

 

There is an implied license under English Common Law for people to be able to visit me on my property without express permission; the postman and people asking for directions etc (Armstrong v Sheppard & Short Ltd [1959] 2 QB 384. per Lord Evershed M.R.).

 

Therefore take note that I revoke license under Common Law for you, or your representatives to visit me at my property and, if you do so, you will be liable to damages for a tort of trespass and action will be taken, including but not limited to, police attendance.

Letter sent to debt collectors informing them that both them and their clients prime know where I live. So any contact to be made at correct address.

 

2 letters off to prime.

 

1 dispute letter re debt collectors and another about their failure to respond to my letters and just once again outlining their balance is still incorrect after they removed the ppi credit.

 

As there’s further Ppi in this loan and due to dispute and unfair relationship which has resulted in balance and that there are more fees and interest that need removing too.

 

I’ve also made a point of saying that their monthly repayments are wrong as these take into accoubt interest and ppi.

 

Once everything is removed the outstanding balance if any should be divided by the months remaining of the term.

 

No second guesses to what their response will be. Zilch as per...

 

But give it 6 weeks and I’m putting money on they issue court mid March!!!
