    • Hi. Could you post up what they've sent please so we can see what the charge is? Cover up your name and address and their reference number. HB
    • I've looked through all our old NPE threads, and as far as we know they have never had the bottle to do court. There are no guarantees of course, but when it comes to put or shut up they definitely tend towards shut up. How about something like -   Dear Jonathan and Julie, Re: PCN no.XXXXX cheers for your Letter Before Claim.  I rolled around on the floor in laughter at the idea that you actually expected me to take this tripe seriously and cough up. I'll write to you not some uninterested third party, thanks all the same, because you have are the ones trying to threaten me about this non-existent "debt". Go and look up Jopson v Homeguard Services Ltd, saddos.  Oh, while you're at it, go and look up your Subject Access Request obligations - we all know how you ballsed that up way back in January to March. Dear, dear, dear - you couldn't resist adding your £70 Unicorn Food Tax, you greedy gets.  Judges don't like these made-up charges, do they? You can either drop this foolishness now or get a hell of a hammering in court.  Both are fine with me.  Summer is coming up and I would love a holiday at your expense after claiming an unreasonable costs order under CPR 27.14(2)(g). I look forward to your deafening silence.   That should show them you're not afraid of them and draw their attention to their having legal problems of their own with the SAR.  If they have any sense they'll crawl back under their stone and leave you in peace.  Over the next couple of days invest in a 2nd class stamp (all they are worth) and get a free Certificate of Posting from the post office.
    • Yes that looks fine. It is to the point. I think somewhere in the that the you might want to point out that your parcel had been delivered but clearly had been opened and resealed and the contents had been stolen
    • Hi All, I just got in from work and received a letter dated 24 April 2024. "We've sent you a Single Justice Procedure notice because you have been charged with an offence, on the Transport for London Network." "You need to tell us whether you are guilty or not guilty. This is called making your plea."
    • Okay please go through the disclosure very carefully. I suggest that you use the technique broadly in line with the advice we give on preparing your court bundle. You want to know what is there – but also very importantly you want to know what is not there. For instance, the email that they said they sent you before responding to the SAR – did you see that? Is there any trace of of the phone call that you made to the woman who didn't know anything about SAR's? On what basis was the £50 sent to you? Was it unilateral or did they offer it and you accepted it on some condition? When did they send you this £50 cheque? Have you banked it? Also, I think that we need to start understanding what you have lost here. Have you lost any money – and if so how much? Send the SAR to your bank as advised above

    • 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,

 

 

I have a BW Legal court case going on at the moment. Today I received another county court claim from BW Legal for a different company. This is fraud too.

 

 

Name of the Claimant ? PRAC Financial Ltd

 

Date of issue – 29/09/17

 

What is the claim for –

1.The Claimant's claim is for the sum of £300 being monies due from the Defendant to the Claimant, under a loan agreement regulated by the consumer creditlink3.gif Act 1974 between the Defendant and Instant Cash Loans Limited t/a Payday UK under account reference xxxxxxx and assigned to the Claimant on 09/12/2016 notice of which has been given to the Defendant.

2. The Defendant has failed to maintain the contractual payment under the terms of the agreement and a default notice has been served and not complied with.

3. The claim also includes the statutory interest pursuant to section 69 of the County Courts Act 1984 at a rate of 8% per annum (a daily rate of £0.06p from the date of assignment of the agreement to 28/09/17 being an amount of £18).

What is the value of the claim? £360

 

Is the claim for - a Bank Account (Overdraft) or credit card or loan or catalogue or mobile phone account? loan

 

When did you enter into the original agreement before or after 2007? After

 

Has the claim been issued by the original creditor

or was the account assigned and it is the Debt purchaser who has issued the claim. debt collector

 

Were you aware the account had been assigned – did you receive a Notice of Assignment? The account was opened at a different address to mine. I lived at this address about 20 years ago but have moved twice since then. I received a debt collector letter in 2013 for this and I wrote and said they have the wrong person but I did not hear a thing until March this year when I got a county courtlink3.gif summons.

 

Did you receive a Default Notice from the original creditor? No

 

Have you been receiving statutory notices headed “Notice of Default sums” – at least once a year ? No

 

Why did you cease payments? I have never made any payments

What was the date of your last payment? None

 

Was there a dispute with the original creditor that remains unresolved? Yes, there will be now. I did not know anything about this loan.

 

Did you communicate any financial problems to the original creditor and make any attempt to enter into a debt managementlink3.gif? No

Acknowledge the claim defend in full.

 

CPR 31:14 letter to claimants solicitors, asking for all documents they mentioned in their claim. In the letter, add a paragraph, that the account taken out with the original creditor is fraudulent and has now been registered with Police via Action Fraud.

 

CCA request to PRAC

 

Report the matter to Action Fraud.

We could do with some help from you.

I am going to tackle this one now.

I am so nervous about getting it right because of the court on Monday.

I don't want to lose this one or allow BW Legal to get my defence thrown out.

I honestly had nightmares about this for the last couple of nights.

 

I will file the defence on MCOL.

Then I send a CCA request to PRAC?

I will send a letter to BW Legal asking for the documents.

 

 

On the other case they only sent me the documents just in time for the courts request (a couple of weeks before the hearing).

 

 

The judge was not impressed but said that legally it was acceptable.

Is there any way I can force them to give me the information sooner?

Is it worth doing a Data Protection request?

 

On another note, is it worth writing to PRAC telling them that this is fraud and that BW Legal ignored that in the past and lost, suggesting that PRAC drop it to save their fees?

You really cannot make this up... Keep a copy of that statement - This is why ID Fraud is so rife in today's society...

You could use it if it goes that far... Will stand them up in front of a judge...

Why not fill in the fraud notice they have sent you, but dont send it back to them and keep it for the case...

They havent even filled it out properly (Its template - You can tell by the 831 /831 on it...

 

What id like to know is how they get away with being so intimidating with their wording...

This statement consisting of one page... Er no! Its over 2 pages morons.

 

I had a letter come back to me recently from these fools with this... And itll make you laugh...

Not really Eco Friendly eh?

Hi Fko,

 

 

they really are nasty aren't they. There are many people that I know who would pay the money that they are asking for because they would be scared of the threats of bailiffs etc. I definitely could not work for a company like that.

Ask all the staff ive had to deal with over the last few months...

 

FWIW - While not relevant to your case - IF you look at the FCA Register entry for PRAC Financial - Youll see that the contact is one of the directors.

That same director is the COO of BW LEgal... Our client that they refer to as PRAC Financial is actually the COO of BW Legal...

 

https://register.fca.org.uk/ShPo_FirmDetailsPage?id=001b000000o7TV7AAM

 

To the uneducated (Those who arent aware the FCA register exists) they would think they are 2 separate companies with no links...

no you never chase failed CCA's.

not your problem

think about it..you DONT want them to comply....

 

just because the court have sent a std form it does mean its going anywhere yet.

they could just as easily discontinue its not even been allocated to a court nor gone through disclosure stage yet.

where they WILL have to produce all you asked for to enforce the claim

Well well... Ive seen your statement they have sent. Looks like their incompetence knows no boundaries. IF you ever get the opportunity to take this to the judge then point out that their statement has issues with interest being charged double on some dates Plus their so called "Statement" is incorrectly calculated...

It would be correct if you were paid £200 - But youve been "paid" 201.60 as loan capital hence the calculation is completely incorrect (Might be out by a few pennies a day but nonetheless their statement is still invalid) They also did this to me... I dare not tell them - Dont let on its incorrect.

 

Id be inclined to ask them which police force they have reported this too if they have or have they plan to report it too...

However do you have to fill in their form... I am unsure. Might be worth waiting for one of the other team to come back here.
