  1. Quick update and question please. I have received a written acknowledgement of my defence from the court (I assume this is standard) but it's been 14 days now since the CCA and CPR 31:14 were signed for as received by Arrow and Shoosmiths respectively. Is there a time limit for them to respond?
  2. Thanks Andy and dx - defence just submitted with relevant account numbers to mcol. What usually happens next and is there a rough timescale of likely events? Do I need to respond or take further action if and when I receive replies from Arrow or Shoosmiths in the meantime or should I just keep updating here?

  5. My first defence draft - needs to go tomorrow so any help/advice/corrections appreciated. Thank you - Particulars of Claim (for reference only) 1.The claimant’s claim is for the sum off £1547.19 being monies due from the defendant to the claimant under a regulated agreement between the defendant and MBNA Europe Bank Limited (No. xxxxxxx) and assigned to the claimant on 30/11/2015, notice of which has been provided to the defendant . 2. The defendant has failed to make payment in accordance with the terms of the agreement and a default notice has been served pursuant to the Consumer Credit Act 1974. 3.The complainant claims the sum of £1547.19 4. C has complied, as far as is necessary, with the pre-action conduct practice direction. Defence 1 The Defendant contends that the particulars of claim are vague and generic in nature. The Defendant accordingly sets out its case below and relies on CPR r 16.5 (3) in relation to any particular allegation to which a specific response has not been made. 2. Paragraph 1 is noted. I have in the past had an agreement with MBNA Europe Bank Limited, but do not recognise this specific account number or recollect any outstanding debt and have therefore requested clarification by way of a CPR 31.14 and section 78 request. I am unaware of any legal assignment or Notice of Assignment pursuant to the Law and Property Act 1925 Section 136(1) 3. Paragraph 2 is denied. I have not been served with a Default Notice pursuant to the Consumer Credit Act 1974. 4. On receipt of the claim form, the Defendant sent a request by way of a section 78 pursuant to the Consumer Credit Act 1974, for a copy of the agreement. To date, nothing has been received. 6. A further request was sent via CPR 31.14 to the claimants solicitor, requesting disclosure of documents on which the Claimant is basing their claim. To date nothing has been received. 7. It is therefore not accepted with regards to the Defendant owing any monies to the Claimant and the Claimant is put to strict proof to: a) show how the Defendant has entered into an agreement and; b) show how the Defendant has reached the amount claimed for and; c) show the nature of the breach and evidence by way of a Default Notice pursuant to sec 87 CCA1974 d) show how the Claimant has the legal right, either under statute or equity to issue a claim. 8. As per Civil Procedure 16.5 it is expected that the claimants prove the allegation that the money is owed. 9. On the alternative, as the Claimant is an assignee of a debt, it is denied that the Claimant has the right to lay a claim due to contraventions of section 136 of the Law of Property Act and section 82A of the Consumer Credit Act 1974 10. By reasons of the facts and matters set out above, it is denied that the Claimant is entitled to the relief claimed or any relief.

  7. CCA and CPR 31:14 were sent as directed a few days ago. Obviously I've had nothing back as yet. My defence is due in a couple of days but I'm currently in the middle of a 7 day 14 hour night shift week at work zzzzz. Can you recommend an appropriate defence that I can use during my one spare hour when I'm not sleeping or working? Should I use the one you mentioned in your last reply? Thanks again.

  9. No, I think I paid my monthly payments on time to MBNA whilst I was able to afford them, then when I lost my job I agreed reduced interest free payments with MBNA until they sold them to Idem at the end of 2012 at which time I stopped the payments all together. I then seem to recall a succession of dc agencies contacting me to say they own it now - Arden, Fredericksen, Mackenzie Hall are a few I recall. Due to my mental state during that time, I simply buried my head and ignored all the letters and daily telephone calls. I maybe should have manned up and contacted you guys earlier...

  11. Thank you for the kind welcome and advice. As instructed, I've completed a CCA Request to Arrow Global, the claimant, and a CPR 31:14 to Shoosmiths, the solicitors. As I'm not too good with computer documents and formatting and printing, it took me a couple of hours and help from my granddaughter to complete haha. I'll post everything recorded and include the blank PO with the CCA Request. I managed to dig out some correspondence which shows that MBNA transferred the debt to Idem Servicing in September 2012. I had been paying reduced, interest free payments directly to MBNA until that time, but then no further payments were made after November 2012. I stopped them after learning of the transfer. After that, I had contact from at least four more different debt collection agencies, each saying they now owned the debt. I was wondering about how to submit my defence to the court claim as it is due by around 06/09/16 (in about a weeks time) but as I'm only posting the requests today, I probably won't hear anything back by then? Thanks again.

  15. Hello all, My first post on this great forum - very nervous and very worried. Please correct and advise me if I do anything wrong or don't follow correct protocol as I'm not a regular user of any forum! I had two credit card accounts with MBNA one started 1996, the other in 2001. I believe I stopped paying the full repayments around 2005 due to losing my job and the resulting financial problems and agreed with MBNA a reduced, interest free monthly repayment. Some time later I received letters saying both accounts had been assigned to a debt collection agency who would now be taking over the accounts. I think these were possibly re assigned two or three more times to different agencies over the next couple of years but my memory on these is not so good as I was suffering from severe depression around this time and on prescribed medication. I probably ignored and binned any correspondence from around this time. Most recently, around November 2015, Arrow Global took over both debts and on 05 August this year I have received two Court claim forms (one for each account). I read a few threads and have responded to the claim online at moneyclaim.gov.uk to acknowledge service and stated I wish to defend. Now I'm struggling and worried sick that my head might go again and would be so grateful for any help you wonderful people could provide. I don't think I have a lot of time to respond?
