    • Thanks DX , true I was reading it as my own licence when I can now see it is the VED thanks for the clarification. As for the payments that does make sense and I will give them a call today. I have to watch the date as I have 21 days from the 29th May to respond to plea of guilty or not.
    • This is the latest response from IDR. I know exactly what has happened - I left Qatar in 2006 leaving behind card debt of QAR13,000 (unintentionally, I thought it was paid off). When I visited Qatar for a weekend in 2012, I was blocked from leaving the country - ended up having to go to the Court, met with the bank and negitiated a settlement  - they wanted about QAR90,000 in total and supposedly agreed on QAR40,000 to settle completely. Unfortunately, I only have a pay-in receipt for that and no confirmation the whole debt was settled: I was so focussed on getting the exit ban lifted. Anyway, I left and I have visited Qatar since then with no issue. My concern is that the statute of limitations  will run from 2012, rather than 2006. Should I continue to ignore or explain to IDR that I don't agree there is an exisiting debt? IDR 10062024 redacted.pdf

    • as with some of your threads in the past. you are not reading things carefully and understanding things properly by going off on assumptions. not sure where you are getting your driving licence is being revoked from? nowhere do they use that word. nothing to do with it. vehicle excise licence. (Road Tax), a VEL cannot be revoked only voided. you are also wrong and nowhere does the DVLA state they cancelled the DD.  the court summons clearly states in the DVLA statement: it was your cancelling/reclaim of the DD on 15-02-2024 that caused this, NOTHING to do with the DVLA, they did not revoke the VEL. as they received no payment, on 02.05.2024 the VEL was Voided. it appears you have got the new DD setup wrong to the wrong DVLA account/ref number/VEL number. they have not received the payments to the correct VEL. i would be ringing DVLA and finding out where these payments are on their system and get them attributed to the correct VEL. that should solve the problem.

    • 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.

At least, CAG members who follow the advice on the site.

i will be off site for the next month or so. if you have any problems, feel free to report the post so a moderator can help you.

A couple of years ago I had a delightful young woman at Mckenzie Hall tell me that I should stop sponging off the state, get myself a job and pay my debts (I had, and still have, a rather good job and the debt wasn't even mine). When I asked if she enjoyed her job and whether she wouldn't wish to persue more a more high-flying career, perhaps shelf-stacking at Netto, she called me a bitch and hung up.

I was argued with and told to stop being difficult and called a bitch by the delightful woman. She kept raising her voice to me so i kept doing it to her in the end i told her what i thought of her she put the phone down and they (1st credit) have not phoned since.

 

They also told my husband that he should get a better job and had a right go at him

After three..."oh yes it does".

 

just to point out, the site does NOT condone debt avoidance. this site is about empowering people to take control of their situations and deal with them using the law

 

 

 

that is all

Well said Pt:mad:

Mr S hijacked my thread earlier and tried to rub everyone up the wrong way until the mods stepped in.. perhaps its best just to ignore him.. people come on this site for help not to listen to childish comments from someone who is old enough to know better.. if youve got nothing better to say please log off

No it certainly does not!!!!! Anyone who thinks that has missed the point!

 

It is about helping the normal person who is threatened and intimidated by DCAs who buy alleged debts, often unenforaceable, or mis-assigned, to deal with companies who make their living from the misfortunes of others!

 

As has been written so often on here - if they send threatening letters to fuel their greed they will backfire, by people googling them and finding this site (how I got here), and realising they are bullies !

If someone knows they borrowed the money and refuses to pay it back because a creditor cannot provide the agreement it is NOT re-paying your debt and therefore debt avoidence. Simple as that!

 

 

And what about when someone DIDN'T borrow the money, and is harassed and scared to death by companies threatening them - is that debt avoidance too?

And also what about people who have borrowed, and due to cirumstances beyond their control (reduncancy, illness, bereavement) - does that mean they have to pay back exorbitant illegal fees?

i suggest you take the time to read the Consumer Credit Act 1974

 

especially sections 77,78 and 79. it sets out that where a creditor cannot produce the agreement they cannot enforce the debt

 

now the onus is upon the creditor to take measures to ensure they can comply with the law, not forgetting that its been around since 1974 so they have had long enough to read and understand it

 

if someone takes out a loan with the express intention of not repaying it then i WILL NOT HELP THEM make that clear,

 

however nearly every person i advise is not in that category.

 

i do not wish to be drawn into childish tit for tat conversations as i have more important things to do with my time

 

this forum is about helping people, and this does not serve to help anyone

 

regards

paul
