    • I posted a couple of years ago about our debt situation and have been trying to pay off our debt as best we can. It is a possibility I maybe made redundant in a few months time, so I am trying to find out everything I can about what happens in today’s world when you can’t pay. I keep finding conflicting advice on various sites so I wanted to post this quote to get thoughts. It claims basically that the dca will likely get enforceable documents these days and therefore it’s likely you will have to pay dca at some point during the 6 year process.    on here I read a lot of comments assuming the exact opposite of this. A lot of the threads on here state the beginning of the process but I never see conclusive stuff about what happened from start to finish to get insight into whether debts post 2015 have been enforced etc. I hear a lot here not to pay dca companies but most my debts are post 2015 debts I am all up to date on our debts but if I lose my job it is likely I’ll end up where I tried to avoid in the first place. Which is destroying our files and dealing with DCA. I’ll post it below so you can see what I mean.   It is likely that any debts incurred after 2007 will end up with all the documentation being provided and being enforceable. Therefore you should use the time while awaiting responses going through your Income & Expenditure and considering any possiblity of making a full and final settlement. It can take a number of months to reach the stage of a hearing date and exchange of witness statements and normally you would be able to settle or come to an arrangement to pay before the court hearing, once documents have been provided, although this isn’t guaranteed.

    • 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.

Hi,

I have recently sent over £6000 worth of goods to this one ebayer. I had telephone comunication with him aswel and he has been paying me with paypal.

 

Yesterday morning i recieved an email from another seller on ebay saying that he has just been scammed by this same buyer. I checked my paypal account and it said that i had reversals for all of the transaction, so that sum of over £6000 has been taken from my paypal account and all the goods have been sent off to this buyer. His telephone has now gone dead and not replying to his emails. He DID NOT have a confirmed address.

 

I've tried to get paypal to help me with my situation but they are not doing anything for me.

 

I am not the only person whos been scammed by this guy theres another 3 or 4.

Does anyone have any ideas how i would go about getting my money?

Paypal said that the money had been reversed because the payment was not authorised. I have all the tracking numbers and they have been signed for aswel.

 

Any advise on how to go about dealing with this situation would be great.

 

Thank You

Crumbs! That is not good news at all

I deal on ebay and paypal too so this is close to home

 

Have you reviewed ebay forummers comments? I found this page and it may give you some insight into what to do next

Not that it helps resolve your situation but I've been scammed too by someone on eBay (although it was only for a few quid) - Paypal, unfortunately

in my experience, sides VERY much with the buyer.

 

Despite pages of evidence from me, and proof of posting, they just deducted

the money out of my account saying that I didn't deliver the goods to

the buyer because I hadn't sent the item recorded delivery (despite not offering that service to the buyer...) and thus had no proof of delivery.

They just accepted the buyer saying that he hadn't received the goods and

gave him his money back...

 

Paypal beware.

 

 

(Although I might add, also unhelpfully, that you probably should have

waited until the PayPal payments were ''cleared'' into your account before

sending the goods... Like waiting for a cheque to clear.)

Yeh I agree Sparky about the goods and payments thingy, but according to PayPal BUYERS can claw back up to 180 days later, which I think is very wrong, and leaves the seller open to all sorts of wrongful claims.

 

I suppose with hindsight, which isn't even helpful for you at the moment, I would have sent these goods registered or signed for delivery, and would have IMMEDIATELY withdrawn £6000 from my own PayPal Account just in case

 

Its well bad and I am not sure how the law stands on this

-sparky-

Paypal/E-bay in my experience did not as you say side very much with the buyer , on the contrary I have lost over £300 because the seller after receiving the money did not issue proof of mailing so I could backtrack, did not respond to more than 20 E-mails or answer any telephone calls, line which is and probably was at the onset bogus. Any transactions should be looked upon as being suspicious if the seller does not provide facilities to backtrack goods at the onset of the sale. Paypal/E-bay does not favour the seller. Believe me I have been shafted. :mad: :mad:

I did try withdrawing my funds but paypal limited my account because they thought i was doing money laundering. I managed to withdrawn around £1000 previous to the reversal but that has just made my account become -£1000

Fraud is not a civil dispute,

 

have you looked at any other buyers or sellers from this person? contacted them and found out what their experiences are?

 

I would be back down to the police station, it is fraud and theft, criminal offence!

Goblin: Why did PayPal not respond or help with this case? Was the buyer registered and how many times had they used E-Bay? It would appear like a legal matter so I cannot see the problem

 

JGJ: As a Seller and a BUYER too, I can see where you coming from. It occurs to me that the system needs closely monitoring for both parties who become affected, which I'm sure you would agree

 

TOP TIP:

Send everything RECORDED DELIVERY / SIGNED FOR / TRACKED and only deal with people who have been on Ebay longer than a day!

I have spoken to an ebayer who left feedback in dec but the transaction went through fine but the person lived in wales. I have also been speaking to the people who have been scammed but nothing realy productive has come from it yet, were all pretty confused about who to go to as were being sent round in circles by paypal and the police.

The ebay aco**** has been around for a couple of year with 59 100% possitive feedback, but the paypal account was not verified.

 

My intial thaughts about the police was that they were trying to fob me off but i've tried 4 different times and with different people i keep getting the same answers- "its a civil dispute"

Dont speak to a desk seargent, get on to fraud, and if the person you get is not interested, phone up again and speak to someone else untill you get someone who will take on board and investigate or pass you to the correct department ;) They should also be giving you crime reference number becuase your reporting a crime so if you dont get one you know they aint listening.

Hi Guys,

 

Is fraud the best charge for this could it not be deception?

 

I think the best thing to do is get what section it comes under in the PACE (police and criminal evidence act) quote it to the CID department of the police and make a statement. Definetly go to the police and push them, I would even go to the station and speak to someone in CID only. It is their remit.

 

Mcreedy - yes your right get to the address but you dont know what you will meet their or how many, unless the police take it seriously then I would be hesitant about going outside your area and making trouble - even though you are justified.

Yes, quite right, I wasnt suggesting going alone!

 

You could also get in touch with local debt collectors and see if they are interested.

Hi!

IdaInFife was adamant that there ought to be a copper who would cooperate - but I couldn't find one. (Sorry, see my thread for her more coherent words!)

 

However, while they are not faster than a speeding bullet, you can find the ombudsman at www.financial-ombudsman.org.uk.

I was in a similar boat, went to the Financial Ombudsman & although it took time (3 months) it was resolved (OK as a goodwill gesture)

Where Paypal are concerned, the Ombudsman may be the best bet.

Download their .pdf file, post it off & let them work at their pace. It worked for me. It's also got to be safer than pounding mean streets solo?!

Good luck!

Hi!

Let me be very clear - noone is suggesting the Ombudsman is fast.

However, the initial form is online (and works *so* much better in Word than Wordpad) and one stamp later gets you a reference number you can then use with email or telephone.

All you have to do is dodge the debt collectors while the communciations flow, & I hope you come out OK. ('Debt' coverted to Euro yet?)

I did, but I don't know how rare or everyday I am.

Good luck!
