    • Thats because this claim has not been allocated as yet hence the above hearing *Case Management " to determine the directions (N157 Notice of allocation) which will follow after this hearing. You are not requested to submit a statement but have all the details with you (claim form defence CPR CCA etc etc)   Andy
    • Our price is the same all day, but varies day to day. Yes there's a risk of high prices but it has never gone above SVR any time since I signed up. Last 30 days average 17.67p/kWh, max 20.67 and lowest was 11.83.  It saved just under £300 during 2023.  
    • It you had E7 in the past but have converted to single rate then the meter will still hold the last recorded Night readings. This introduces scope for error when manually reading. If the meter has only ever been used on single rate then there's only one figure that can be taken. For example ours shows "Rate 1" reading and a "Total import" reading, but they both give the sme figure. If it has ever been on E7 the total will be higher, including the retained night reading.
    • okay, perfect and thank you so much for the help once again. so firstly i am going to initiate the breathing space, during this time it's likely ill receive a default. when i receive the default are you aware of how long it will take for me to know whether the OC have sold it off to DCAs? Once it's with the DCAs i do not need to worry as they cannot issue a CCJ only the OCs can Even if i decide to come an arrangement with the DCAs no point as the default will remain for 6 years paid or not paid I should only consider repayment if the OC still won the debt and then issue a CCJ? Just to confirm the default will not be seen after 6 years? No one can tell I had one then after 6 years ill be all good?
    • I'm not sure we were on standard tariffs - I've uploaded as many proofs as I can for the ombudsman - ovo called last night uping the compensation to 100 from 50 pounds for the slip in customer service however they won't acknowledge the the problem them not acknowledging a fault has caused nor are they willing to remedy anything as they won't accept the meter or formula was wrong.   I'd appreciate more details on the economy 7 approach and I'll update the ombudsman with any information you can share.

    • 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.

Ive just tried to log into the old JDW Account and it does seem to be about right,

give or take a month or two,

it may have been 2011 but i dont think it was before that.

 

I can probably be more certain when i get home tonight and dig out some docs,

i might have put the wrong dates further up.

 

If i remember correctly i opened the account 2012 (ish) ran into probs 2013 and started reduced interest free payments

which ive been paying ever since until they sold it to 1st recently.

 

Does that sound clearer? Prob me confusing the issue!

well it cant be defaulted 6yrs if its only from 2012

it looks like JDW has sold the account on and closed it without defaulting it?

on the closed account entry

is there a defaulted date listed.

OK - have found a bit more info!!!

 

I use clear score,

i dont know if thats any use

- if you think theres a better one please let me know.

 

It doesnt mention anything anywhere about a default and the payment history show as all up to date but it says the account was opened 12th June 2010.. so i was a bit off there!

 

Could you point me in the direction of some templates please?

(i have looked already but failed to locate the correct ones i think)

 

- am I correct in thinking i need a failed CCA letter and possibly an account dispute letter too? As i said i have to maintain my credit rating.

Thank you for your help

No such thing as a failed CCA request letter...they have had it...they have not complied.

thanks Andy,

do i not need to write to them though to point that out?

 

If i merely stop/continue paying im solving nothing really :-( so stuck right now - i went for some mortgage advice last month and im in a good place at the moment which means a lot after years of renting so i dont want to risk that.

Sorry - the letter that 1st credit sent suggested that all communication should be through them now that they hold the account so i assumed that was the rule.

 

i have finally got hold of someone

- a human being no less at JDW,

who advised me that there seem to be default sums on my account yet she couldnt give me specific info.

 

That has to be requested by email (so thats my next task)

- is there a difference between 'late payment defaults' and major stopped all payment defaults? or are they the same thing?

Have they sent a default notice and registered it on your credit file?

Forget the rest

 

If they have sold the debt then they must have defaulted it

Hi again

I have had an email this morning from JDW,

the reply says that

'I can see that during the last 6 months there has been no default amounts added to your account'

- i have replied to ask if there were any during the life of the account but so far haven't had a response.

 

I have checked my credit file - using clearscore and Noddle and neither show any default whatsoever - Clearscore says 'you have no accounts in default or reposession'.....is there anywhere else to check?

 

I have checked back through the paperwork provided by 1st credit (as a result of me sending the as i now know incorrectly addressed SAR and CCA request) and their response seems rather odd.

 

They have provided copies of all the paperwork they have sent to me so far and also copies of anything i have sent to them,

this includes a copy of the SAR letter

 

while they make reference to being unable to provide the documents relating to the SAR or CCA requests the copy of the CCA letter i sent isn't present.

 

Which makes me wonder why, its making me doubt i have sent it in the first place even though i have it saved on my PC (i cant put my hand on the postage receipt!!! typical!)

 

yet they make direct reference to the copy of the Credit agreement.

 

Is it worth sending again to ensure I am covered should they not comply a second time?

well the charges can be reclaimed along with any others.

 

so that looks you have 3 mts or more of them so a default should have been registered then.

I haven't made payment yet and so far they haven't chased (bet there will be a letter waiting now I've said that ha!)

 

as i explained in post 39,

their info is confusing

as they refer to a copy of the Credit agreement letter i sent to them

but haven't included a copy in the information they sent to me (as they have with other letters i sent to them)

 

I don't know for certain if they actually received it or if i should send it again to make sure i am definitely covered...
