my 2004 managed loan from hsbc had some irregularities in the credit agreement, so it's worth a try nonetheless.

A new tatic by a greedy under capitalised bank?
mexico86 replied to GolfCaddie's topic in Debt Collection Agencies
current accounts with overdrafts do not need credit agreements. perhaps this has something to do with it. -
Can you sell your own debts?
mexico86 replied to Iaintpayingyoudotcom's topic in Debt Collection Agencies
would it be possible to assign your debt to somebody from a country with no reciprocal agreement? How about assigning it to somebody from Somalia, or outer Mongolia? lol It would be nice to get he whole nation's debt canceled in this way, but realistically this cannot work once too many people start doing it. Just looking at the bank charge claim bonanza, for years only a handful of people knew about it, but once it became popularised in the mainstream press, the court system got swamped with claims and the powers that be decided a test case would be necessary, with all individual claims being deferred for a year or two...conveniently for the banks. Now we have companies being set up specifically to reclaim bank charges, and solicitors soliciting for bank charge claims. However, that's not to say this idea should not be popularised if it turns out to be useful. A substantial number of people might be helped by this method, before it gets outlawed and 'shut down' by the authorities. Power to the people! -
Metropolitan's call centre is an offshored operation somewhere in south asia, based on the accent of all the operatives I have spoken too. However, when asked, they say they are in 'Birming ham'. Trying to talk to them is utterly pointless, because their telephone operatives know absolutely nothing apart from what their scripts tell them. Most don't even know what a cca request is.

How on earth do the dcas manage to link people here with real world people they are trying to collect from? -

This new and rather sinister activity from DCAs doesn't surprise me one bit. Thanks for warning us edit: now that you mention it, I have noticed some posts from new users which seem to have similar structure, tone and titles...including attempts to get other users to share details of their specific cases.

I suppose it depends on whether the company to which your friend made the loan repayments has the rights to collect the debt. Someone better qualified should be along to give better answers though

I am being chased by CSL debt collectors, for arrears on my student loan, but student loans have included more than a hundred pounds of old penalty charges. Student loans told me (on the phone) that now they have given it to the debt collector, they are unable to remove the charges, and so I should speak to CSL. CSL say they can't do anything about the charges, and that I should speak to student loans. So, I am being sent round in circle by these jokers. What should I do? I have no objection to paying the ARREARS, but I will not pay the penalty charges.

I'm subscribing to this thread, because I am interested to know whether the the agreement can be considered sufficiently legible to go to court.

Hi debtmouse, some more knowledgeable people than me will be along shortly to help you out with this. I too have a few questions with a similar theme. What action can be taken against me if I am living outside of the UK. E.g., can a DCA get a CCJ against me if my address is in a foreign country? Or do they need a UK address to do that? Can they just use the last UK address I had before I moved abroad, despite knowing my current overseas address?

Was your account an overdraft, or a loan or credit card? This makes a difference to how banks and DCAs deal with a CCA request. Basically, for overdraft accounts the bank/DCA need not supply a credit agreement after a CCA 1974 request. The DCA I have been dealing with was careful to explain why they didn't need to send me a copy of a credit agreement for my overdraft, but I guess other DCAs may prefer to explain nothing. A more experienced member of these boards will probably be along shortly to clarify this and suggestwhat steps you could take.

Student Loans and Statute of limitations/CCA CSL DCA
mexico86 replied to pblackie's topic in Student loans/SLC
I seem to remember a while ago, parliament closed some 'loop holes' that allowed people to get out of paying back student loans, even if you go bankrupt? Or does this only apply to new style loans?
