    • what solicitor is the PAPLOC from? then just search xxxx snotty letter dx  
    • moved to the debt self help forum. plenty of like threads here to read along with the ones you've done so far..good work. last thing you ever want to do is look at any kind of IVO/BK or anything alike concerning consumer debt, never do that, turns unsecured debts into secured ones in many instances. your best bet for now is p'haps looks at  Options for dealing with your debts: Breathing Space (Debt Respite Scheme) - GOV.UK (www.gov.uk) sadly you have to go thru one of the free debt charities to invoke that but DON'T be tempted to also open up a DMP with them, just get the Breathing Space done. get that in place that gives you at leasy 60 days buffer you've also goto to realise you'll probably get a default once breathing space is in place, bit if not it might pay you to withhold payments even after BS then p'haps re start payments once a DN for each debt is issued and registered. at least that way, whatever happens in 6yrs the debt will drop off dx  
    • Hello, I am a private seller and recently sold a pair of trainers on eBay.  Everything seemed fine until just after the eBay 30 day mbg had expired.  The buyer contacted me with photos showing me that both shoes had ripped.  He wanted his money back, and after refusing to refund him, he then left me retaliatory and defamatory feedback on my profile to the effect that I had sold him fake trainers (this was removed by eBay).  He then initiated a chargeback via Paypal.  Invariably, the outcome was in his favour, and I have now been charged for the cost of the trainers.  I would have also been stung for the chargeback fee, but eBay refunded this.  Incidentally, I do have the email receipt of the trainers from when I bought them from a well-established and bona fide online retailer.  The susbequent conversation with eBay followed its predictable course, i.e. the chargeback is out of their hands etc. I have been in contact with citizens advice, and my bank.  Citizens advice told me that as a private seller I'm responsible for the "Title and description" of the goods, but not the performance, or the fitness for purpose.  To me it is clear; if you receive something that's not as described, you don't then use the goods, and more than 30 days later claim 'not as described'.  In my mind, this makes the claim fraudulent.  He's used the 'they're fake' card to give credence to a 'not as described' claim here, obviously, without any evidence.  My understanding is that the chargeback is unlawful, because the trainers were shipped as described.  However, I read something on an eBay forum regarding sellers having no statutory rights, i.e. no right to appeal against a chargeback decision, or to complain to the financial ombudsman.  Does this mean that if my bank disputes the charge on my behalf, it will be to no avail, even if it's recognisably a fraudulent chargeback?  I have reported it via the Actionfraud website. Any advice, anyone?  Would be most grateful!
    • Thank you, I have drafted my letters and started to complete the reply form, printed from this site and not using the one they provided.    2 questions, on the forum link it says to tick box D & I, the reason for box D will be given on my thread, what would my answer be to "I dispute the debt"?  Do I send anything for the Vodafone debt they have included?  I've only done 118 loan s. 77 & capital one credit cards so. 78    Thank you

    • 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

 

 

quite some time ago

I got myself into some difficulty mainly as a result of several redundancies and a failed business venture.

 

 

Due to this and feeling I had an obligation to pay my debts I entered into a DMP with Payplan.

 

 

have been paying £150 a month

again I'm finding myself in a redundancy situation

have started to think I'm not doing the best for myself.

 

 

I have a mortgage that I have never defaulted on and never had issues,

I've never changed lenders whilst in the DMP,

 

 

I have been making payments into since December 2011.

I went with a DMP as I work in an area that any CCJ's/Bankruptcy would cause me to lose my job.

 

In total I have a combined amount of just under £30k outstanding.

 

Creditor Default Date Opened Date

Santander 02/04/2012 15/10/2007 Loan

Link 31/05/2012 02/08/2007 Credit Card

Capital One 03/01/2012 13/02/2006 Credit Card

RBS (Westcot) 20/01/2012 04/02/2006 Credit Card

Link (CO-OP) 05/09/2013 16/02/2005 Credit Card

PRA (MBNA) 30/04/2012 23/09/2004 Credit Card

PRA (MBNA) 30/04/2012 01/11/1999 Credit Card

Nationwide Oct 2011 14/05/2009 Subject to Tomlin Loan

 

I'm thinking of stopping the DMP with payplan and potentially asking for CCA's from all of the creditors, apart from Nationwide as I think I've shot myself in the foot with the tomlin order.

The balance on this is approx £2700

 

 

if I can free myself of the other debt

I will divert the full amount to this and get it paid over 18 months.

Unless anyone suggests anything else.

 

My understanding of the CCA's is that prior to a certain date they are obliged to provide me with a copy of the original agreement but I might have that wrong.

 

Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated

yes CCA the lot

bar the nationwide CCJ.

 

was nationwide the claimant?

 

might be worthy go get some SAr running too

reclaiming penalties/PPI?

 

the other way is to simply cancel payplan

then wait for the deforestation to come thru your door and deal with each one then. by CCA?

 

obv you don't stop the tomlin.

please don't hit Quote...just type we know what we said earlier..

Agree with DX here - Tomlin is good because you avoid the CCJ -itself.

Deffo CCA on this one - Keep paying the Tomlin. Was this Hoist portfolio by any chance?

 

We could do with some help from you.

Thanks, Ive been in touch with Payplan and told them I'll look after my accounts going forward.

 

The tomlin is with Nationwide, not had any dealings with Hoist.

Nationwide have kept the debt and they seem to have been ok as they are getting a little bit each month.

 

2 accounts have been sold to PRA & another 2 to Link.

RBS have recently sold the account onto Westcot and Santander & Capital One have kept hold of their accounts.

 

Looking at the ages of some of these accounts I would expect that they will find it very difficult to provide them, one of the MBNA accounts is 18 years old.

Sorry not been on recently.

 

 

I've stopped the DMP and sorted out payment on the Tomlin.

 

 

Just waiting letters now before sending out the CCA's,

1st letter arrived today from Capital One.

 

the Westcot account was an RBS account.

I rang RBS and they said it had been moved onto Westcot and they are reporting on my credit file.

 

Nationwide refused an F&F and want the full amount, though they have agreed to accept the amount I was paying on the DMP.

Hi

 

I've had the CCA request back from Capital One, unsurprisingly they have said the agreement is enforceable. would it be possible if someone could have a look at it see if they think it is?

 

I'm happy to scan the documents that they have sent me, which I have listed below.

 

They have provided a copy of the original agreement with my signature on it.

They have also provided a copy of the terms of my capital one CC agreement, this is undated

They have also provided 6 pages of T&C's that again are undated and look generic.

And finally a copy of the default notice that they say they sent to me, this is dated 01/12/2011, thought my default reported on my credit file is 03/01/2012.

 

 

I have also had a letter from RBS and they have told me that they have now assigned the debt to Cabot, but Westcot will still continue to manage the account.
