    • No I'm not. Even if I was then comments on this forum wouldn't constitute legal advice in the formal sense. Now you've engaged a lawyer directly can I just make couple of final suggestions? Firstly make sure he is fully aware of the facts. And don't mix and match by taking his advice on one aspect while ploughing your own furrow on others.  Let us know how you get on now you have a solicitor acting for you.

    • Thank you for your reply, DX! I was not under the impression that paying it off would remove it from my file. My file is already trashed so it would make very little difference to any credit score. I am not certain if I can claim compensation for a damaged credit score though. Or for them reporting incorrect information for over 10 years? The original debt has been reported since 2013 as an EE debt even though they had sold it in 2014. It appears to be a breach of the Data Protection Act 1998 Section 13 and this all should have come to a head when I paid the £69 in September 2022, or so I thought. The £69 was in addition to the original outstanding balance and not sent to a DCA. Even if I had paid the full balance demanded by the DCA back in 2014 then the £69 would still have been outstanding with EE. If it turns out I have no claim then so be it. Sometimes there's not always a claim if there's blame. The CRA's will not give any reason for not removing it. They simply say it is not their information and refer me to EE. More to the point EE had my updated details since 2022 yet failed to contact me. I have been present on the electoral roll since 2012 so was traceable and I think EE have been negligent in reporting an account as in payment arrangement when in fact it had been sold to a DCA. In my mind what should have happened was the account should have been defaulted before it was closed and sold to the DCA who would then have made a new entry on my credit file with the correct details. However, a further £69 of charges were applied AFTER it was sent to the DCA and it was left open on EE systems. The account was then being reported twice. Once with EE as open with a payment arrangement for the £69 balance which has continued since 2013 and once with the DCA who reported it as defaulted in 2014 and it subsequently dropped off and was written off by the DCA, LOWELL in 2021. I am quite happy for EE to place a closed account on my credit file, marked as satisfied. However, it is clear to me that them reporting an open account with payment arrangement when the balance is £0 and the original debt has been written off is incorrect? Am I wrong?
    • OMG! I Know! .... someone here with a chance to sue Highview for breach of GDPR with a very good chance of winning, I was excited reading it especially after all the work put in by site members and thinking he could hammer them for £££'s and then, the OP disappeared half way through. Although you never know the reason so all I can say is I hope the OP is alive and well regardless. I'd relish the chance to do them for that if they breached my GDPR.

    • 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 dx100uk,

 

I looked at the spreadsheets but the output didn't look appropriate.

I have a SAR response for a 20 year old loan with PPI, the agreement form appears to be a blank copy or such a poor scan that it looks like it hasn't been filled in.

 

The loan was arranged/sold by a building society but was from Lombard, now part of RBS.

 

What I have is:

 

 

Amount of loan

Total interest

Total insurance

Total repayable amount

Term of loan

Monthly installment amount - fixed amount, same amount each month

Due date

 

 

And a payment history

 

 

I'm trying to work out the total amount I should be claiming from the building society in a direct PPI claim, ie not small claims (as yet)

then use statint spready

it does everything foryou

the only thing you need to workout is the PPI%

 

PPI/loan+PPI*100=PPI%

then anything you paid that % is for PPI

don't forget you must enter the monthly sum individually for each month you paid the PCM loan payment.

copy of pm uploaded here:

 

Default Calculation verification

 

I don't want to add the numbers to the visible thread, hence PM - just a check of my working:

 

So if I have the following over a 48 month loan:

Total interest £2120.40

Total PPI insurance £1126.00

Loan £4700

 

Using PPI/loan + PPI*100 = %

 

I am assuming this is (PPI / (Loan+PPI)) * 100

 

=19.327%

 

then calculate 19.327% of total interest and divide by 48

 

=8.537 PPI interest PCM

 

Then add that to 1/48 total PPI

=31.996 monthly PPI + PPI interest PCM

 

Which for my loan gives a claim to date of £3741.09

 

Does this seem correct or have I messed up - not too sure about the PPI % order of operations.

 

With thanks,

From what I can find, s77 CCA doesn't apply for a copy of the agreement once the loan is paid off, and the agreement sent with the SAR response looks to be a blank copy - I imagine you won't want that.

Other than that what have I not read properly ?

Anything You paid 19% was toward ppi

So for each of your 48 monthly payments you enter what figure that 19% was for EACH date you paid it and enter it individually in the stat int sheet

The sheet does the rest

Current agreement and policy added

 

So with monthly repayments of 165.55, entering £32 in the sheet for each month gives me £3,741

Just to recap, this was a loan of £4700, over 48 months with total PPI (not interest) of £1126 with a total repayable amount of £7946.40 over the full term

Finally had a response back from the building society which arranged the loan

- they state the provider, Lombard (RBS) confirmed to them have no data regarding the selling agent and will investigate no further until I can provide the building society with proof they were the selling agent of the Lombard loan.

 

I do have loan documents from Lombard on the back of a SAR but the agreement is a blank photocopy with a hand written month / year reference circa the time of the loan.

 

Any suggestions on what I can do to move this forward ?

Just to be clear, originally all I had was a confirmation from Lombard regarding the final payment being received, the only hard proof I have is the SAR documentation from Lombard which specifies the loan account, amounts, payments but no seller data.

 

At the moment I'm thinking of SARing the building society since all I've sent to them so far is a PPI claim

'They' are Bradford & Bingley Building Society

 

 

 

Going after Lombard / RBS - yes I was thinking that's my next step since I have clear proof they provided the loan and the insurance was under their name with the insurance provider, Pinnacle.

Is there any pitfall with this and should I be going after Pinnacle rather than Lombard / RBS ?

Did the General Insurance Standards Council codes apply in 1998 ? From what i can find it appears to be around 2001 though the Association of British Insurers code seems relevant and predated this at 1989.

I see the FOS has some useful guidance under financial-ombudsman.org.uk/publications/technical_notes/ppi/rules-codes.html particularly the section at the bottom under the headings application and other litigation

 

Thanks for the guidance dx100uk

yes ABI that was the other one

 

there have been many good wins with underwriters in the late 1990's using ABI.

 

see the FOS examples

Update on success -

Sent SAR to the underwriters Pinnacle - their response must have been sent back the day they received it given the turnaround - the response was along the lines of 'we have no record of you'

 

I sent the claim to Lombard /RBS just as the FOS wrote to me suggesting as much as they had spoken with RBS who told FOS they would look at the claim if sent in by me.

 

Seven weeks later - RBS have settled with a letter beginning "Thank-you for accepting our offer via the Financial Ombudsman Service"

 

Nice, but I don't recall accepting - must have been FOS on my behalf.

 

The sum is as we calculated above, adjusted for the payment date, thanks dx100uk ! The only shock is the removal of £453 for income tax on the statutory interest with an explanation of HMRC ruling of Oct 2013.

Leeches.

£3,348 - not bad for a 20 year old loan with no paperwork save a 'thanks for your final payment' letter :-)

 

The only advice I can give to anyone else with little in the way of proof of the loan, is per the thread and advice on the PPI pages here,

 

SAR every organisation involved before claiming

- the seller,

the loan provider,

the PPI underwriters and

any other company you can if they have been sold on or taken over and

 

once you have usable documentation, claim against the company providing the documentation.

Good luck!
