    • In terms of "why didn't I make a claim" - well, that has to be understood in the context of the long-standing legal battle and all its permuations with the shark. In essence there was a repo and probable fire sale of the leasehold property - which would have led to me initiating the complaint/ claim v SPF in summer 19. But there was no quick sale. And battle commenced and it ain't done yet 5y later. A potential sale morphed into trying to do a debt deal and then into a full blown battle heading to trial - based on the shark deliberately racking up costs just so the ceo can keep the property for himself.  Along the way they have launched claims in 4 different counties -v- me - trying to get a backdoor B. (Haven't yet succeeded) Simultaneously I got dragged into a contentious forfeiture claim and then into a lease extension debacle - both of which lasted 3y. (I have an association with the freeholders and handled all that legal stuff too) I had some (friend paid for) legal support to begin with.  But mostly I have handled every thing alone.  The sheer weight of all the different cases has been pretty overwhelming. And tedious.  I'm battling an aggressive financial shark that has investors giving them 00s of millions. They've employed teams of expensive lawyers and barristers. And also got juniors doing the boring menial tasks. And, of course, in text book style they've delayed issues on purpose and then sent 000's of docs to read at the 11th hour. Which I not only boringly did read,  but also simultaneously filed for ease of reference later - which has come in very handy in speeding up collating legal bundles and being able to find evidence quickly.  It's also how I found out the damning stuff I could use -v- them.  Bottom line - I haven't really had a moment to breath for 5y. I've had to write a statement recently. And asked a clinic for advice. One of the volunteers asked how I got into this situation.  Which prompted me to say it all started when I got bad advice from a broker. Which kick-started me in to thinking I really should look into making some kind of formal complaint -v- the broker.  Which is where I am now.  Extenuating circumstances as to why I'm complaining so late.  But hopefully still in time ??

    • 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.

Hi guys,

 

I've requested a copy of a CCA a while back (all recorded delivery).

 

I sent the £1 postal order, and waited the 12+2 working days for a reply.

 

I never received a reply (after it was tracked - delivered), so I then sent the reminder - 30 days to respond (recorded).

 

That was also ignored and I had no reply, so then I sent the 'Account in Dispute - Section 10 Notice' letter, which ended

 

"I reserve the right to report your actions to any such regulatory authorities as I see fit. You have 30 days from receiving this letter to contact me with your intentions to resolve this matter which is now a formal complaint."

 

I have also not received a reply from this (all letter have been recorded delivered).

 

I'm not sure as to the next steps to proceed? Has anyone been in this situation before?

 

Thanks

Yep, once the clowns are out of time, then it is a definite IGNORE, keep rattling their cage then they're going to magic up a CCA.

 

Forget them, and tell us who it was and what the alleged debt is for.

Who ever heard of someone getting a job at the Jobcentre? The unemployed are sent there as penance for their sins, not to help them find work!

Thanks for the reply guys,

 

It was with Opos DCA - from what I recall was an over due balance with a phone contract around 5-6 years ago, maybe longer. I had an on-going complaint with the provider (Three) - who admitted the phone was faulty - to which I said I wouldn't pay until it's resolved.

 

Me not knowing much back then, I let it all escalate with over-due balances, which ended up affecting my credit file. I've not heard a peep from them or anyone in literal years, until I started receiving letters again.

Matters not, it's a poxy mobile phone debt, that is pretty much going nowhere.

 

This isn't a priority, and never will be, 3 are notorious for their sterling customer service!

 

When ''EXACTLY'' did you last pay anything OR acknowledge 'in writing' that you owed this?

 

Check your credit file, Noddle is free, and see what, if anything, is on there regarding this.

 

How much is the amount they're begging off you?

Hi guys!

Been a while since I've posted on here.

Thanks to all the help I got on here,

I managed to dig myself out of a rather dark hole and I am (or as I thought) debt-free, ha!

 

Long story short,

I got into debt (few grand),

set up a payment plan with all creditors and paid it off (young, silly and naive),

 

 

seems I missed one off the list, D'oh (Minicredit or Microcredit)

- Who I now find out have been shut down by the FCA?

 

I actually only noticed last month (been researching quite a bit)

 

I've never heard of 'Kapama', nor do I recall any literature from them in writing or even by email.

 

 

After research, it does seem to indicate (as above) Minicredit or Microcredit (can't remember the name it was so long ago.

 

Attached is a snip of said default, from 2013.

I'm not sure the initial loan,

I guess £122 was the full repayment,

but it shows a balance of £842! - Criminal.

 

After research, I have found a document from the FCA regarding https://www.fca.org.uk/publication/requirement-notices/microcredit-vreq.pdf

but, I honestly can't make heads or tails of it.

Do I fit in this category?

 

I honestly don't mind paying off what I owe (but genuine funds) not an extortionate amount.

 

 

Does anyone know the best way forward or the best way for me to start with this?

 

 

I was thinking starting with a CCA request, to see what that comes up with

- But as I say, I've only just found out about 'Kapama' - 'rolls eyes'.

Afternoon, all (just).

 

To cut a long story short; found myself in debt a few years back (PayDay loans), set up a payment plan with all debts but missed one. Email in 2017 from Kapama stating a debt purchased (84 - I guess it was MicroCredit/Opos) £800+ (£445 'attempt charges'), original loan amount was £100. I was actually defaulted (according to my credit history on 21 June 2013) - that's how long ago it was.

 

So, I started to chase this up a while back, went on holiday, forgot all about it :roll: until a few days ago, I logged onto my old email to find lovely email amongst a lot of spam (as it's my old email address) - we all have them, right?

 

Part of the email reads;

It should be noted that this debt was purchased in December 2014 by Kapama Limited (FCA Registration Number 672065) and as a result is now being managed by Opos Limited (FCA Registration Number 693817). For your convenience, I have also attached a copy of your Consumer Credit Agreement that was issued at the time the line of credit was agreed.

 

Now, I don't recall receiving any such letters about a sale of a debt, I don't even recall being chased for it - As mentioned, I started to pay (what I thought was all) debts. They have also stated that they have attached a copy of my CCA - Whereas, in fact, they have only attached a 'Statement of Account' (attached).

 

I am now debt free, stably on my feet (big smiles) - or so I thought. What would you think the first and best steps to take are? All in writing of course.

- Request a copy of the sale of debt they 'allegedly sent'?

- CCA request?

 

100% don't mind paying the loan, interest or even default charges. But, I think they're trying something :???:

Why would you even consider paying them anything? Go read the history of minicredit/opus/kapama. They are/were ran by the same people in an effort to hide their tracks from the regulators after being heavily restricted by them.

Any advice i give is my own and is based solely on personal experience. If in any doubt about a situation , please contact a certified legal representative or debt counsellor..

Thanks - re-added removing REF. (The OPOS (linked to this is was a mobile contract - all cleared up now).

 

My heads been all over the shop with this one - just lose track of where you've been or what I've done.

 

I think, possibly, this one totally run away from me. I recall making payments to all other creditors and clearing the debts bar this (as I say, forgot it existed until the email) - So if there was a payment, it would have been near to the time the credit was taken, so we're looking at around 5 years :-o

no opos was not a mobile debt it was this one.

they don't do phone accounts just PDL's

 

is this debt on your credit file?

 

you should block and bounce ALL emails

if they want you they should write to you.

 

looking at your overall situation then

have you not ever considered irresponsible lending claims against every PDL company you used?

you could get moneyback here.

Ah, you see - I've been out of debt now for quite a while, I can't even remember which is which :smile:

 

It is on my credit profile, yes. Showing as Kapama Limited (2013). I've not thought about irresponsible lending claims, I'll have a look into that now, thanks!

 

I'll also have a look at setting up a block/bounce, as I don't think just an email is right or proper.

Have you had anything via post? If not, then just ignore them. They have to send various things by post to comply with regulation. They have no idea if that email is even in use anymore.

Ah, I was thinking it had to be by post in all fairness.

 

I actually moved address around 15 May, 2016. The email was dated 30/05/17 and it had my old address attached too.

 

The default will be coming off in July 2019. As I've bee debt-free now for many years, I was looking at treating myself to a new car. Which would more than likely be a long-term loan, probably with my Current Account (which I can now afford comfortably and say with a smile) - This is obviously going to impede the application.

 

Would the balance of £842 remain on my credit profile after the removal of the default as that still may impact my application (sounds silly looking to get a loan after hardship from previous loans, I know).

 

Just has a read of StepChange, Irresponsible lending - making a complaint. However, the lender is no longer in business :lol:

there is also a list of PDL lenders and who owns the debts now in our stickies of this forum.

 

the whole account vanishes when the default reaches its 6th birthday

doesn't mean its not owed mind.

Thanks, I'll take a look.

 

I guess so, yes, 2016. However, re-reading the thread, I do recall sending a Credit agreement request to Opos as I did receive something relating to Three (I'm 95% sure it was Opos who purchased the Three debt (it may have been purchased from another provider - however, that's all very much in the past and long history now :D ).

 

For this MicroCredit, I don't recall ever sending a CCA. Baring in mind, I still haven't received anything in relation to my requests in 2016 (but my profile is clear of that now).
