    • In my experience (not with car payments) but with many other things, my partner has been ill and signed off in the past and we have been unable to meet various commitments.  Naturally if you ring the call centre they are going to fob you off and tell you you must pay, that's why that never ever works. I would obtain a note from her GP listing all her health issues plus medications plus side effects, then write to the finance company with a copy of it, explaining the situation, as you have here, asking for a payment holiday. Perhaps mention that the car is very much needed for hospital appointments etc. It's likely the finance company would rather you pay till term end than, chase you for money they will never see, and sell the car at auction for a loss,  You can search some of my threads going back years, advising people to do this for Council Tax, Tax Credits, HMRC, Even a solicitors company and it always works, because contrary to popular belief people are reasonable.
    • Sorry, I haven't ever seen one of these agreements. Read it all and look out for anything that says when she can withdraw and when she is committed to go ahead. If it isn't clear she may need to call the housing provider and simply say what you posted here, she doesn't want to go ahead and how does she withdraw her swap application?
    • Thank you! Your head is like a power bank of knowledge.  Her health issues are short term, due to a relationship breakdown she took it pretty hard and has been signed off work on medication for 3 months. She only started her job in February 24 so does not qualify for any occupational sick benefits, which is where the ssp only comes in. (You will see me posting a few things over the coming days, whilst I try and sort some things for her)  I sat with her last night relaying all this back and she does want to work out a plan, she was ready to propose £100 for the next 3 months and then an additional £70 per month onto of her contractual to "catch up" but Money247 rejecting the payment holiday and demanding £200 thew her, which is why I came on here.   
    • I've looked at your case specifically more.   Term 8bii reads " when, in accordance with instructions from the Customer or the Consignee, the Consignment is left in a safe place" Their terms choose to not define safe, so they are put to proof that the location is safe. If your property opens onto a street its a simple thing of putting a google earth image and pointing out that its not a safe place

    • 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.

Yes i sent them a cca way back in November, i still recieve the odd call usually three over three days but they must be in office hours as i'm never in. I cant pay into that account as it doesnt exist anymore and am glad in one way as i think the company i work for may not be able to pay me this month so funds are going to be strained. They have made no contact about the CCA so i'm here wondering what next?

A happy Spring to everyone.

A few months of quite and then a call from India from Mint, my payments are under review. In the last week a female rang and asked me for security details i refused not knowing who she was and she finaly said a letter will be in the post, which finaly arrived today. Its from apex who come from Stratford demanding i contact them in conection with my LLoyd debt and to phone within 72 hours to discuss it on a 0871 number its un-signed. After listening to one of the answer messages from some high pitched ear drum wobbler i shall pen them a letter i think.

Spex - did you send the CCA request? Debtsurvivor posted the link to the template letters previously. IF AIC cannot provide a credit agreement for the account, they are NOT entitled to collect payments from you anyway.

 

If you wish to continue paying, just pay what you can afford regardless of whether they will accept it or not. I find the best way is to use the bill payment service on my online banking. This way i am in control of money going out of my account. If AIC are only acting on behalf of Lloyds i would be inclined to pay the money directly into the Lloyds account. I did this with my Egg account and comletely bypassed Arc. I haven't heard from them in ages.

 

Don't let them walk over you - be strong. You've got lots of support here ;)[/wish i had that Tag]

Spex - register for BT's Choose to Refuse, its about £3 a month, but you can block certain numbers from ringing you, the other option would be to go you BT and say you are getting strange phone calls and could you change your number, they will do this free of charge, you can then go ex directory and none of the muppets will be able to communicate with you verbally - just a suggestion. Good luck :)

The end of August 08 and lloyds have decided to write to me again, it seems their agents havent succeeded in getting the debt paid in full and will i fill in a financial statement as soon as possible or else. I received it in the morning, filled it in and put £3 month for me to pay, envelope and in the mail ( i havent paid anything since at least January). Six weeks ago i was made reduntant from my post when my boss returned from his holidays and said "ive had enough" and shut the company down. The morning of the letter from Lloyds i had already had a Statutary demand from Travis Perkins regarding a personnal signature on a credit agreement some 20 days ago, when at 7.30 pm two bodys arrived at my door and handed me another copy and said they will be back in 21 days to give me my court papers. The demand included service costs of £159.15 is that figure allowed?

Sorry I can't answer the question about charges, but I wouldn't have offered Lloyds anything if they have not yet provided you with a signed agreement that is enforceable. You shouldn't be paying anything that you cannot afford.

 

You seem to be going through a bad patch at the moment so I do hope things look up for you and hopefully someone with more experience will come along with regard to the Stat demand.

 

Best wishes.
