    • The Notice to Hirer does not comply with the protection of Freedoms Act 2012 Schedule  4 . This is before I ask if Europarks have sent you a copy of the PCN they sent to Arval along with a copy of the hire agreement et. if they haven't done that either you are totally in the clear and have nothing to worry about and nothing to pay. The PCN they have sent you is supposed to be paid by you according to the Act within 21 days. The chucklebuts have stated 28 days which is the time that motorists have to pay. Such a basic and simple thing . The Act came out in 2012 and still they cannot get it right which is very good news for you. Sadly there is no point in telling them- they won't accept it because they lose their chance to make any money out of you. they are hoping that by writing to you demanding money plus sending in their  unregulated debt collectors and sixth rate solicitors that you might be so frightened as to pay them money so that you can sleep at night. Don't be surprised if some of their letters are done in coloured crayons-that's the sort of  level of people you will be dealing with. Makes great bedding for the rabbits though. Euro tend not to be that litigious but while you can safely ignore the debt collectors just keep an eye out for a possible Letter of Claim. They are pretty rare but musn't be ignored. Let us know so that you can send a suitably snotty letter to them showing that you are not afraid of them and are happy to go to Court as you like winning.  
    • They did reply to my defence stating it would fail and enclosed copies of NOA, DN Term letter and account statements. All copies of T&C's that could be reconstructions and the IP address on there resolves to the town where MBNA offices are, not my location

    • My defence was standard no paperwork:   1.The Defendant contends that the particulars of claim are generic in nature. The Defendant accordingly sets out its case below and relies on CPR r 16.5 (3) in relation to any particular allegation to which a specific response has not been made. 2. Paragraph 1 is noted. The Defendant has had a contractual relationship with MBNA Limited in the past. The Defendant does not recognise the reference number provided by the claimant within its particulars and has sought verification from the claimant who is yet to comply with requests for further information. 3. Paragraph 2 is denied. The Defendant maintains that a default notice was never received. The Claimant is put to strict proof to that a default notice was issued by MBNA Limited and received by the Defendant. 4. Paragraph 3 is denied. The Defendant is unaware of any legal assignment or Notice of Assignment allegedly served from either the Claimant or MBNA Limited. 5. On the 02/01/2023 the Defendant requested information pertaining to this claim by way of a CCA 1974 Section 78 request. The claimant is yet to respond to this request. On the 19/05/2023 a CPR 31.14 request was sent to Kearns who is yet to respond. To date, 02/06/2023, no documentation has been received. The claimant remains in default of my section 78 request. 6. It is therefore denied with regards to the Defendant owing any monies to the Claimant, the Claimant has failed to provide any evidence of proof of assignment being sent/ agreement/ balance/ breach or termination requested by CPR 31.14, therefore the Claimant is put to strict proof to: (a) show how the Defendant entered into an agreement; and (b) show and evidence the nature of breach and service of a default notice pursuant to Section 87(1) CCA1974 (c) show how the claimant has reached the amount claimed for; and (d) show how the Claimant has the legal right, either under statute or equity to issue a claim; 7. As per Civil Procedure Rule 16.5(4), it is expected that the Claimant prove the allegation that the money is owed. 8. On the alternative, as the Claimant is an assignee of a debt, it is denied that the Claimant has the right to lay a claim due to contraventions of Section 136 of the Law of Property Act and Section 82A of the consumer credit Act 1974. 9. By reasons of the facts and matters set out above, it is denied that the Claimant is entitled to the relief claimed or any relief.
    • Monika the first four pages of the Private parking section have at least 12 of our members who have also been caught out on this scam site. That's around one quarter of all our current complaints. Usually we might expect two current complaints for the same park within 4 pages.  So you are in good company and have done well in appealing to McDonalds in an effort to resolve the matter without having  paid such a bunch of rogues. Most people blindly pay up. Met . Starbucks and McDonalds  are well aware of the situation and seem unwilling to make it easier for motorists to avoid getting caught. For instance, instead of photographing you, if they were honest and wanted you  to continue using their services again, they would have said "Excuse me but if you are going to go to Mc donalds from here, it will cost you £100." But no they kett quiet and are now pursuing you for probably a lot more than £100 now. They also know thst  they cannot charge anything over the amount stated on the car park signs. Their claims for £160 or £170 are unlawful yet so many pay that to avoid going to Court. When the truth is that Met are unlikely to take them to Court since they know they will lose. The PCNs are issued on airport land which is covered by Byelaws so only the driver can be pursued, not the keeper. But they keep writing to you as they do not know who was driving unless you gave it away when you appealed. Even if they know you were driving they should still lose in Court for several reasons. The reason we ask you to fill out our questionnaire is to help you if MET do decide to take you to Court in the end. Each member who visited the park may well have different experiences while there which can help when filling out a Witness statement [we will help you with that if it comes to it.] if you have thrown away the original PCN  and other paperwork you obviously haven't got a jerbil or a guinea pig as their paper makes great litter boxes for them.🙂 You can send an SAR to them to get all the information Met have on you to date. Though if you have been to several sites already, you may have done that by now. In the meantime, you will be being bombarded by illiterate debt collectors and sixth rate solicitors all threatening you with ever increasing amounts as well as being hung drawn and quartered. Their letters can all be safely ignored. On the odd chance that you may get a Letter of Claim from them just come back to us and we will get you to send a snotty letter back to them so that they know you are not happy, don't care a fig for their threats and will see them off in Court if they finally have the guts to carry on. If you do have the original PCN could you please post it up, carefully removing your name. address and car registration number but including dates and times. If not just click on the SAR to take you to the form to send to Met.

    • 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.

Recommended Posts

I have been in writing to Drydensfairfax Solicitors back in March 2016.

 

They are acting on behalf of their client Max Recovery Limited who purchased a debt.

 

I had previously asked them for a credit agreement and copy of the deed of assignment.

 

Back in March 2016, they wrote to me in reply.

 

They provided me with a basic office copy of a credit agreement.

 

They claimed that their client, Max Recovery, had provided them with a copy deed of assignment, and that they had attached this to the document for my perusal.

 

Upon checking the documentation, this assignment was not present as stated in the covering letter.

 

For the past year, I have had no response from Drydensfairfax.

 

Today, I checked my credit agreement, and I am horrified that they have placed a default on my credit file on the 30th May 2017.

 

Under section 87(1) Consumer Credit Act 1974, I have NOT been provided with a written default notice prior to this default being placed.

 

Can anyone please advise me what to do next as I feel that the default is illegal!?

 

The other concern is that Drydens should not have put the default in their name as the debt belongs to their client Max Recovery Limited.

 

Am I correct in thinking Drydens have done this default incorrectly it should be their client!?

The default went onto my credit file on the 30th May 2017.

 

Prior to this no written default notice has never been received.

 

Max Recovery bought the debt in late 2012, Drydens are a firm of solicitors acting on Max Recovery's behalf to reclaim the debt.

 

As Drydens don't physicall owe the debt they can't put the default on surely its illegal?

 

Origional debt is an unsecured credit card opened online in around 2011.

the original creditor would have defaulted you in 2012 before sale

that's an updated default date.

read what I've already said twice now again..

 

a debt buyer cannot default you.

only the original creditor can.

 

the fact that the debt didn't show until of recent is of no importance.

 

have you moved since you took that card out?

max recovery are really a very lowlife DCA

how many more times...DRYDENS DID NOT PLACE THAT DEFAULT.

 

MBNA defaulted the account before they sold it MAxy in 2012

that date is an updated default date -

 

and it doesn't even say drydens on your credit file either I bet?

why do you keep insisting they place it there?

then the default date being the start of the IVA [or because of that] is irrelevant

the IVA failed.

According to Companies House Fairfax Solicitors Ltd was dissolved via voluntary strike-off 01 Oct 2013,

 

Your Credit File should reflect the owners name IE Max Recovery Limited....Solicitors shouldn't have access to credit files...they are not a creditor nor do they hold a credit licence .....nor the assignee of the debt....or anything in this case being dissolved.

 

What date did you actually default on the agreement when it was was with MBNA ?

wasn't there a whole portfolio of the MBNA cards that were sold in 2011/12 to max recoveries/eversheds etc wasn't it

and there was something dodgy about the whole sale.

 

the 2012 default on this one tallies with that time period

so MBNA defaulted the lot and sold them on.

 

was there not also something about Fairfax becoming drydenfairfax too them later only drydens they dropped the Fairfax bit.

 

i'll have to go search credit today I think it was

there was some naughty exposure of directors etc..or something

I dont think MBNA have ever managed to to get the process of default correct to this day or understand the CCA1974.

 

It could be that they have changed name to drydenfairfax...but its irrelevant they shouldn't have any contact with credit reference agencies

The account is showing on the entry that it went into default on 3rd August 2012.

 

This date is wrong because I actually defaulted on the 1st June 2012 when the IVA came into effect.

 

The debt was then sold sometime afterwards to Max Recovery Limited.

 

I telephoned Drydensfairfax Solicitors yesterday and they did confirm it was them showing on my credit file.

 

So legally, where do I stand with this issue?

 

Can I sue Drydensfairfax for damaging my credit file when they don't even owe the debt!?

"The account is showing on the entry that it went into default on 3rd August 2012.

Ah so its not recently been placed by Fairfax in May 2017..but was entered by MBNA on 3rd August 2012..it is normal to be 2/3 months after default.

 

You cant sue Drydensfairfax ..they haven't damaged your credit file...but simply inserted their name in place of MBNA after the debt was assigned.

 

Your only argument is that it should be Max Recovery and not Fairfax....not that it makes much difference to you,,,but the ICO may be interested
