    • Hi Lolerz Thanks for replying to me, yes I've been ignoring her & will continue to do so. All she keeps saying is they want to come up with an amicable settlement. Keeps saying this to our receptionist she shouldn't be saying this to a receptionist or even me in the first place as they have given no proof of anything no IP addresses noting just keeps saying about an amicable settlement.
    • If a DCA supplies a reconstituted copy of the CCA what would be the next step? It seems that a reconstituted copy must be a " true copy " of the executed agreement, it must contain the Prescribed Terms. But given that there is no copy of the applicants signature surely it could be an agreement form with the details filled in. How can it be assumed that this " copy " represents a true copy that the claimant has supposed to have signed. Cabot have demonstrated a bit of sabre rattling when they say "Until we're able to provide this information , your account is unenforceable. This means we're not permitted to obtain a County Court judgement against you . Whilst we cannot pursue legal action, your balance remains outstanding ". I looked up a case... Cabot UK Ltd  v  Bachellier (2010) which might help, but it's tough reading, I'd prefer to plough through War and Peace. This particular case with Cabot is not huge , approx' £140, but the only other worry that I have is also with Cabot...£2100. They may try to make a point with lesser case.
    • you'll never find a court open on a w/end MB. all courts are closed Good Friday and Bank Holiday Monday. However as Andy points out, that does NOT mean you get 2 extra days to file, you get one, same as xmas/new Year. UKPC have not filed their, so no rush on yours as dave says.

    • 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

 

To cut a long story short,

looked at my credit file last week and came across a santander account,

registered to an address 2.5 years ago,

where my children live and where my ex is.

That was odd as ive never opened an account.

i phoned santander. They stopped cards and internet banking.

 

They told me to go in branch and supply identification and address etc to recover account.

I did this has been done.

I now have ownership of this account as of last saturday.

 

They also gave me a statement,

The statement reads that on the 15th of june a cheque was put into the account for 1048

The following three days 300 was taken then the remaining a day later.

 

I have sent an email to their head office to look into it.

My ex denies all knowledge but realistically the account was open there.

..the card went there..

.the pin went there.

 

 

Im not poirot but i mean who else.

Regardless the cheque. a sum of 1048 that sounds like a calculation not someone giving it to her and so it doesnt flag up on her bank puts it in that one.

I think

 

A cheque arrived in my name

someone..opened the account

said person put the cheque in

said person took the cash out once clear.

 

im fairly certain from something that cheque was mine

 

My question is how to reclaim this.

The way i see it, how was an account opened on an address ive not lived for 2.5 years?

 

Id like some clarification of how to proceed if possible.

Women are devious, but £1048 is not £2 so need to reclaim that

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

DCA's view debtors as suckers, marks and mugs

NO DCA has ANY legal powers whatsoever on ANY debt no matter what it's Type

and they

are NOT and can NEVER  be BAILIFFS. even if a debt has been to court..

If everyone stopped blindly paying DCA's Tomorrow, their industry would collapse overnight...

Santander are liable if they have breached their duty of care. You don't yet know if they have. Have you asked them for the account opening documents?

 

Yet, since you are claiming fraud :

a) ask them where / who the cheque was from

b) then go to the police if you believe there has been a fraud.

They are, santander are going to get the cheque so i can see exactly who the cheque was from. Surely as the branch shows quite clearly where it was put in,do they not keep branch cctv records to confirm who put it in?

 

i will update the thread when i get a response from them.

You can post / deposit cheques to a Santander Account using their provided envelopes or pay it in at any Post Office.

Paying in slip requires a signature of account holder.

We could do with some help from you.

OP has not provided evidence yet that wife opened the account or the transaction was fraudulent. Could be a teller inputted the wrong account number, so Bank can reclaim £1048, or that OP has any right to £1048.

 

 

Don't forget Direct Banking by PC Andy

many payments can be sent to wrong bank/account.

That might explain the payment, but wouldn't explain the account opening.....

No my initial statement confirms I'm not certain it was her. Asides from everything went to that address and the cheque was put in the next town across due to a branch not in the town where the address is.

Why also would I open an account at an address i lived at 2.5 years ago

Third the cheque in and subsequent deposits quickly taken out and the account left dormant until I've just found it on my credit file.
