    • Massive issues from Scottish Power I wonder if someone could advise next steps. Tennant moved out I changed the electric into my name I was out the country at the time so I hadn't been to the flat. During sign up process they tried to hijack my gas supply as well which I made it clear I didn't want duel fuel from them but they still went ahead with it. Phoned them up again. a few days later telling them to make sure they stopped it but they said too late ? had to get my current supplier to cancel it. Paid £50 online to ensure there was money covering standing charges etc eventually got to the flat no power. Phoned Scottish Power 40 minutes to get through they state I have a pay as you go meter and that they had set me up on a credit account so they need to send an engineer out which they will pass my details onto. Phone called from engineer asking questions , found out the float is vacant so not an emergency so I have to speak to Scottish Power again. Spoke with the original person from Scottish Power who admitted a mistake (I had told her it was vacant) and now states that it will take 4 weeks to get an appointment but if I want to raise a complaint they will contact me in 48 hours and it will be looked at quicker. Raised a complaint , complaints emailed me within 24 hours to say it will take 7 days till he speaks with me. All I want is power in the property would I be better switching over to EON who supply the gas surely they could sort it out quicker? One thing is for sure I will never bother with Scottish Power ever again.    
    • Hi. Please don't follow McD's advice to contact Met to appeal. They won't listen and you could end up giving them helpful information. HB

    • 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.

Good morning all.

 

I have been reading some of the forums on here and decided to make an account after seeing how helpful everyone is in hopes of getting some valuable information from your selves.

 

I am 37 , borrowed to much money when I was younger, could not keep up with repayments and ignored everything.

 

I ended up on a DMP with a company who got the letters and phone calls to stop, much to my relief. Fast forward 8/9 years and my current status. I have paid 4 of my creditors and have 4 left.

 

Barclaycard. £1800. Link financial , taken out 2008

Morgan Stanley/Barclaycard £1300 link financial , taken out 2002

 

HSBC loan £6800. Idem servicing , taken out pre 2007

HSBC CC. £9000. Idem servicing , taken out pre 2007

HSBC OD. £1500 Idem servicing , taken out pre 2007

 

I have stopped paying my DMP company as I did not realise they were charging me to use them at £37.50. My own fault for not checking.

 

I have tried to negotiate a full and final payment offer , but the companies don’t want to know. So I stopped paying as of August 2017 I read about the 3 letter process and decided to take this route.

 

Link financial replied back “We do not accept letter templates and any future letters will be filed accordingly until further action”.

I have also sent a CCA request FEB 2017, Have not heard from them since.

 

Idem servicing have sent me a letter admitting we do not have any paperwork and cannot enforce in court but we will still be pursuing you for the total amount.

 

I just wanted some advice on what do next.

Thanks

How coincidental...we advise posters to do the same with their template nonsense missives :-)

 

Ignore them until they comply to your request...they are in default.

Just had 2 letters from idem servicing in reply to my CCA request

 

Letter 1 loan £6800, we are unable to supply you with a copy of the CCA and acknowledge that until we do so the agreement cannot be enforced, but the balance still remains outstanding. A list of payments have been sent dating from 15/11/2012 when I first stared paying idem.

 

Letter 2 CC/OD, In compliance with your request pursuant to section 77 of the CCA we enclose a copy of the executed credit agreement, copy of terms and conditions and a statement of account.

I cannot not see any agreement, just terms and conditions , and statements form when I started to pay idem 15/11/2012.

 

Some how idem have managed to merge my HSBC credit card and HSBC OD together, but they always quote my HSBC OD account number.

 

Any thoughts would be much appreciated

Yes I thought that aswell, but idem have merged my HSBC OD, and CC into one account

 

The £9000 is made up of my OD and CC

 

Okay the old amalgamated account syndrome...so the T&Cs are for the CC not for the OD facility?

The terms and conditions are for the OD account

 

Even better:-) ......then they remain in default of your section 78 request with regards to the CC.

Also a 3 page agreement for the overdraft facility on the OD account, and general terms and conditions for current accounts and savings accounts

 

Is the OD mainly made up of unfair charges and interest?...do you have a rough split with balance on the CC > OD ?

 

Edit....

 

HSBC CC. £9000. Idem servicing , taken out pre 2007

HSBC OD. £1500 Idem servicing , taken out pre 2007

HSBC CC £11300

 

The OD and the CC sums are the same for when my DMP took over

I think it may be prudent to send a DSAR (Data Subject Access Request) to HSBC.....template can be found in our Library then you have all the relevant information if this escalates to litigation.

great you've removed yourself from the fee paying fleecers [who were they?]

and even greater you are removing yourself from the DCA cash cow milking parlour

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...

but there are lots of how others deal with these fee payers to read

Hello there. I have received 2 letters from idem again, these are the same letters I got a few days ago, the only difference is today I had to sign for them as they were recorded delivery. Is this normal ?

I have read about DCAs trying different methods to get signatures and then using them.

Just a bit worried
