Just and update one the defence submission. The CNBC Court has sent a letter confirming receipt of the defence and said the claimant has 28 days to contact the court and advise on how they wish to proceed. They also said Cabot may try to contact me directly to resolve the dispute. I guess I'll do some research on here about next steps until I hear back. The letter was dated 24th Jan.

Just a last update before I file the defence. MCOL say I can file a defence to their email to which I will get a reply and use it as a record of receipt. However I know one of the CAG pointers is never use email which I've understood to only apply to DCAs and their solicitors etc. Would it be wise to email the County Court Business Centre . NB: On the defence posted above, I have amended my typo on 7b to correctly read claimant.

Just an update please see my revised defence below. I received a letter from MCS confirming they are looking into my document request and said it may take time as their client may well need to contact the original creditor etc. My defence deadline is on the 16th January I plan on filing the defence on Friday 12th January via the CCBC email as I can't seem to access the MCOL website. 1. By an agreement between HSBC Bank plc and the defendant on or around 04.10.2013 ("the agreement") HSBC Bank Plc agreed to loan the defendant monies. 2. The defendant did not pay the instalments that fell due. The Agreement was terminated following the service of a default notice. 3. The agreement was assigned to the named Claimant. 4. Cabot Credit Management Group Limited, acting as servicing agent of the named Claimant through its appointed Representative (Cabot Financial (Europe) Limited), has arranged for those proceedings to be issued in the name of the claimant. 4. THE NAMED CLAIMANT THEREFORE CLAIMS 1.XXXXX 2. Costs £205 and £80 Defence 1. The Defendant contends that the particulars of the claim as being vague and of a speculative generic 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. The defendant does not recognise this specific Agreement “The Agreement” . The defendant has requested for a copy of the agreement which the claimant has failed to provide “The agreement” as stipulated by the consumer credit Act. The defendant has therefore requested clarification by way of CPR31.14 and section 78 request. 3. Paragraph 2 is denied. The defendant does not recall receiving a default notice. The Claimant is put to strict proof that a default notice was issued and received by the Defendant from the Original Creditor pursuant to s.87(1) CCA. 4. Paragraph 3 is denied. The defendant is unaware of any legal assignment or Notice of Assignment pursuant to the Law and Property Act 1925 Section 136(1) 5. On receipt of the Claim Form the Defendant sent a request by way of a section 78 pursuant to the Consumer Credit Act 1974 to the claimant, for a copy of the agreement, the Claimant has yet to comply and remains in default of said request. 6. A further request made via CPR31.14 to the claimants solicitor, requesting disclosure of documents in their particulars on which the Claimant is basing their claim. The claimant has not complied as 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. This has to be the agreement as stipulated by the consumer credit act and not an application/declaration or a cutout from a website and; b) show how the clamant 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.

I called MCOL and they said I could email the defence as their side if glitchy. the has also sent me an email with the email address I can use. 1. The Defendant contends that the particulars of the claim as being vague and of a speculative generic 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.

The defendant has therefore requested clarification by way of CPR31.14 and section 78 request. 3. Paragraph 2 is denied I have not been served with a Default Notice pursuant to the Consumer Credit Act 1974. The defendant has therefore requested clarification by way of CPR31.14 4. Paragraph 3 is denied. I am unaware of any legal assignment or Notice of Assignment pursuant to the Law and Property Act 1925 Section 136(1) 5. On receipt of the Claim Form the Defendant sent a request by way of a section 78 pursuant to the Consumer Credit Act 1974 to the claimant, for a copy of the agreement, the Claimant has yet to comply and remains in default of said request. 6.

Many thanks for the fantastic help as always. I have sent the 31:14 to the Solicitors and also sent the CCA to Cabot, its the second CCA this year so I added a note saying what they've provided before does not meet the provisions of the Act. I will also be setting up an account to respond to the court before Christmas. With regards a robust defence what should I say my defence is. As I'm required to lodge this presumably before I hear back on the cpr31:14 request and CCA.

Just a further update. Mortimer Clarke have been in touch and their words have been quote: "We enclose an income and expenditure form for you to complete in order for our client to assess offer of repayment. Should we receive no response it is our instruction to issue a County Court Claim." I have just sent back a notification of address change. My thought is the as advised on hear earlier, the next move is not mine.
