Excellent news. Thanks for letting us know. The procedures adopted across the country do vary a bit from place to place at present but the principle is the same. The "advocate" you spoke to was probably the prosecutor. But it doesn't matter - whoever it was you got the right result! -
Thank you . . . -

And even if you handed over your hard earned to losers Lowell they CANNOT remove the default, ALL they can do is simply mark it as satisfied. In essence, DO NOT pay them a single penny, of course they will tell you the complete opposite, just to mug you off and use your money to buy some chocolate biccies. Have you got a copy of, or looked at your credit file? -

Hi I had a credit card in my name while I was married to my ex. When we split up in 2002 he refused to pay any of it, so I stopped paying it. I had a few letters of hoist holdings but never acknowledged them. Since 2002 I have moved 4 times and remarried so my sir name is also different. Last year I received a cheque from hsbc for £25 I never banked it thinking if I did debt agency would be back in touch. Then in November I received one for £50 I never cashed that either . I received a letter from hsbc asking if I was having problems cashing the cheque. I didn't answer them. Now today I received a cheque for over £500 for charges applied to accounts in collections and recoveries. And I really don't understand why they would pay me for not paying a debt. Really confused if I shod cash it or will I be opening up an avenue for debt collectors again. Many thanks mell. -
Not too concerned with deemed service.....if your daughters last known address was your address its deemed good service. I would read the link above more importantly re Protected parties.

Post in Court Claim Against Hermes - item sent via Packlink was lost/tampered with **WON at mediation full amount **
jj58 posted a post in a topic,
Hi @BankFodder
Sorry for only updating you now, but after your guidance with submitting the claim it was pretty straight forward and I didn't want to unnecessarily waste your time. Especially with this guide you wrote here, so many thanks for that
So I issued the claim on day 15 and they requested more time to respond.
They took until the last day to respond and denied the claim, unsurprisingly saying my contract was with Packlink and not with them.
I opted for mediation, and it played out very similarly to other people's experiences.
In the first call I outlined my case, and I referred to the Contracts (Rights of Third Parties) Act 1999 as the reason to why I do in fact have a contract with them.
In the second call the mediator came back with an offer of the full amount of the phone and postage £146.93, but not the court costs. I said I was not willing to accept this and the mediator came across as a bit irritated that I would not accept this and said I should be flexible. I insisted that the law was on my side and I was willing to take them to court. The mediator went back to Hermes with what I said.
In the third call the mediator said that they would offer the full amount. However, he said that Hermes still thought that I should have taken the case against Packlink instead, and that they would try to recover the court costs themselves from Packlink.
To be fair to them, if Packlink wasn't based in Spain I would've made the claim against them instead. But since they are overseas and the law lets me take action against Hermes directly, it's the best way of trying to recover the money.
So this is a great win. Thank you so much for your help and all of the resources available on this site. It has helped me so much especially as someone who does not know anything about making money claims.
Many thanks, stay safe and have a good Christmas!
