    • Hi I was being supplied my ovo after unknowingly being swapped from SSE.  My issues began when we had a smart meter fitted and our bills almost doubled overnight - we at the time assumed we were just paying not enough until then and just continued to pay the excess bills each. Month.    I would from time to time contact ovo and get faced with a call centre on South Africa of the most rude agents who would just hang up after hours of wait and I could not even get an acknowledgement of an issue with my meter.  At one point we were not in the property for like 4 months and the bills were coming just as high!  It was at this point I was sure something is not right and ovo only care to send bailiffs and started threatening us with a pay as you go meter despite me taking out a 3.5k loan to pay of my outstanding balance.  Around 1600 each on both gas and electricity.  This is where its gets really bad -  the very same day they sent me out a new bill saying the money paid already was only to cover up until the November previous and because its now Feb we owe another 1k.   By that August this had risen to over 3k and I still couldn't get anyone to even acknowledge a fault let alone fix it.    In despair I tried to swap suppliers and to my surprise octopus accepted us because even tho the debt is owed we are trying deal with.  During our time with them the bill was coming only on my wife's name as I was responsible for other bills and she this one - now that we owe them 3k they have magically started adding my name as well as my wife's to the same debt to apply double pressure and its showing on my experiwn report now with a question mark and 2700 showing in grey -  This was my wife's debt which we dispute we owe yet the have now sent me letter with both our names on from oriel and past due credit debt agencies - is this illegal and how can I get them to take my. Name of this and leave on wife's name as its so unfair they give us a both a defualt for wife's debt which we dispute anyway.    In the end about 3 weeks ago I wrote an email to their ceo and rishi sunak and low and behold for the first time in our history with ovo someone who spoke English contacted us and said she will look into our claim.    I explained to her that we feel our meter is faulty and despite me contacting them using WhatsApp email and phone I still have not got anyone to acknowledge a fault even. And that I dispute I Owe anything as my son was in hospital for 3 months and we stayed with him so house was empty and still. They were sending us super sized bills more than when we started at home.  She promised to investigate and a few days later replied that she is sorry for the poor customer service and offered us £50 compensation - however she also. Mentioned that she's attached statements for us confirming the payment for 3k I made was only up until Nov and in Feb despite me pay 3.5k nearly it's correct for them to bill. Me. Another £900 the very same day and she did not agree our meter was faulty and therfore the debt stands and she will not be calling it bcak from past due credit.  During my time with my new supplier post ovo, octopus I requested tehy check my. Meters because I felt they were faulty and over charging me and I got excellent response asking me for further details which I supplied and I got a. Response bcak within days to say my meter was indeed faulty and octopus have now remotely repaired it.   I then contacted the energy ombudsman and explained my situation how she at ovo tried to fob me off and demand I apy money we don't feel we owe due to faulty equipment we reported but ovo had to process or mechanism to deal with it or lodge complaint even without having to cc their ceo and our pm. And now I feel sick to think both husband and wife will get a 6  year default for debt which have a validity of a questionable nature.    I explained all this to the energy ombudsman and they accepted my case and I explained to them that my new supplier found my fault which ovo refueed to accept - I've uploaded the email from new supplier to ombudsman showing we had a fault.    My. Question is is there anything I can upload in defence of my case to ombudsman before they decide outcome ina few weeks    All advice greatly appreciated not only would I like advice on how to clear this debt but also how I can pursue ovo for compensation and deterrence for the future.  Thansk 
    • Thanks for the reply dubai 50 - if the statute is 10 years it has long passed - if it is 15 years i havea few months left. i shall ignore until it gets serious  An update - - I sent the letter to the bank in Dubai ( I did get delivery confirmation from Royal Mail)   - I have moved to a new address ( this is the address i gave to the bank in dubai)  - IDR are continuing to send Letters to the old address, which leads me to believe they are not in contact with the bank at all. - i have not replied to any correspondence digital or hard as they are non threatening ( as of yet).

    • 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 re-reading the court orders for the case management on 08th september and the sheriff says

 

" the claimants are ordered no later than the 31st august 2017 to lodge with the sheriff clerk copies of the case law and fca guidance upon which they rely and any other legal authorities they think would assist the sheriff in deciding these issues.

 

These must be accompanied with a "list of authorities"

 

They must send copies of these documents to the respondent, and confirm they have done so to the sheriff clerk also before the 31st august 2017"

 

I have not got this from nolans yet and if i dont receive it would i still have to go to court?

  • 2 weeks later...

they sent me the list of authorities they intend to rely on about 2 inches thick of paper!

 

1) section 78 of consumer credit act

2) section 87 of consumer credit act

3)p mcguffick v royal bank of scotland

4)rankine v american express

 

today i received further evidence they sent to court,

a copy of the credit agreement! unsigned by me i might add.

 

cant really use this now i dont think? "

use:

I have had financial dealings with [original Creditor] in the past.

 

I do not recall the precise details or agreement and have sought verification from the claimant who has not complied with my request for further information."

 

cheers :)

well if you GO READ AGAIN

the sheriff orders in the PDF in post 29 again

 

you'll see they HAVE NOT complied with his demand.

 

specifically

NO DEFAULT NOTICE

NO SIGNED AGREEMENT.

 

the case will adjourned for XX weeks to give them time to produce them I expect.

 

this is ONLY a case management hearing

NOTHING is decided its just a chat.

 

you need to push home hard the fact they've failed to comply with HIS orders

and object to an adjournment.

 

let the sheriff do the talking

talk when spoken too

if yo NEED TO [i e the sheriff doesn't]

point out the above failing.

 

else KEEP QUIET!!

let him shoot them in their foot

Interesting morning!

 

Greeted by 2 nolans solicitors a couple of minutes apart both pushing for a settlement!

Asking what my position was today, i said I was in it for the long run!

 

Waffles on to sheriff about how because I received goods i should be expected to pay for them and saying the default notice was trivial.

 

Sheriff said my defence was based on a technicality but said I was quite within my right to do so.

 

Said the 4 points with the cca request, the statements had been produced ( cant remember th 4th point) and the credit agreement

 

really just left with the default notice which the claimants said they were expected to obtain although nolans tried to say again it wasn't necessary to prove it wasn't given

 

hearing set for 1 November, for proof.

 

the sheriff said the claimants would have to decide from a commercial point of view whether it was worth it financially as it would be very expensive for them and expenses limited to £100 from myself!

 

He also said to get advice from my advisors who had helped me so far!

 

Cheers ��

so this willy waving has come from the fleecers and not the court.

was the form filled in?

 

scan that up too

 

I gather you never did sign and return any agreement?

so all they've done there is typed your name on a couple of sheets they've got out of their filing cabinet.

total bogroll.

 

and still no default notice.

 

and ofcourse the normal line all the DCA's use

'you admitted in your defence you signed the agreement'

 

no you admitted you have had financial dealings in the past

unfortunately it was sent recorded delivery,

just worried about what it says on the front of the form,

 

"if you have been sent this form:

if the court grants this application then it will make the orders which have been asked for below,

you must fill in part d of this application and return it to the court within 10 days of it being sent to you"

 

could i just say on d1 they have not satisfied my cca request with no signed copy of the agreement or default notice?
