    • Thank you for that "read me", It's a lot to digest, lots of legal procedure. There was one thing that I was going to mention to you,  but in one of the conversations in that thread it was mentioned that there may be spies on the Forum,  this is something that I've read quite some time ago in a previous thread. What I had in mind was to wait for the thirty days after their reply to my CCA request and then send the unenforceable letter. I was hoping that an absence of signature could be the Silver Bullet but it seems that there are lot of layers to peel on this Onion.  
    • love the extra £1000 charge for confidentialy there BF   Also OP even if they don't offer OOC it doesn't mean your claim isn't good. I had 3 against EVRi that were heard over the last 3 weeks. They sent me emails asking me to discontinue as I wouldn't win. Went infront of a judge and won all 3.    Just remember the law is on your side. The judges will be aware of this.   Where you can its important to try to point out at the hearing the specific part of the contract they breached. I found this was very helpful and the Judge made reference to it when they gave their judgements and it seemed this was pretty important as once you have identified a specific breach the matter turns straight to liability. From there its a case of pointing out the unlawfullness of their insurance and then that should be it.
    • I know dx and thanks again for yours and others help. I was 99.999% certain last payment was over six years ago if not longer.  👍
    • Paragraph 23 – "standard industry practice" – put this in bold type. They are stupid to rely on this and we might as well carry on emphasising how stupid they are. I wonder why they could even have begun to think some kind of compelling argument – "the other boys do it so I do it as well…" Same with paragraph 26   Paragraph 45 – The Defendants have so far been unable to produce any judgements at any level which disagree with the three judgements…  …court, but I would respectfully request…   Just the few amendments above – and I think it's fine. I think you should stick to the format that you are using. This has been used lots of times and has even been applauded by judges for being meticulous and clear. You aren't a professional. Nobody is expecting professional standards and although it's important that you understand exactly what you are doing – you don't really want to come over to the judge that you have done this kind of thing before. As a litigant in person you get a certain licence/leeway from judges and that is helpful to you – especially if you are facing a professional advocate. The way this is laid out is far clearer than the mess that you will get from EVRi. Quite frankly they undermine their own credibility by trying to say that they should win simply because it is "standard industry practice". It wouldn't at all surprise me if EVRi make you a last moment offer of the entire value of your claim partly to avoid judgement and also partly to avoid the embarrassment of having this kind of rubbish exposed in court. If they do happen to do that, then you should make sure that they pay everything. If they suddenly make you an out-of-court offer and this means that they are worried that they are going to lose and so you must make sure that you get every penny – interest, costs – everything you claimed. Finally, if they do make you an out-of-court offer they will try to sign you up to a confidentiality agreement. The answer to that is absolutely – No. It's not part of the claim and if they want to settle then they settle the claim as it stands and don't try add anything on. If they want confidentiality then that will cost an extra £1000. If they don't like it then they can go do the other thing. Once you have made the amendments suggested above – it should be the final version. court,. I don't think we are going to make any more changes. Your next job good to make sure that you are completely familiar with it all. That you understand the arguments. Have you made a court familiarisation visit?
    • just type no need to keep hitting quote... as has already been said, they use their own criteria. if a person is not stated as linked to you on your file then no cant hurt you. not all creditors use every CRA provider, there are only 3 main credit file providers mind, the rest are just 3rd party data sharers. if you already have revolving credit on your file there is no need to apply for anything just 'because' you need to show you can handle money. if you have bank account(s) and a mortgage which you are servicing (paying) then nothing more can improve your score, despite what these 'scam' sites claiml  its all a CON!!

    • 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.

I have been working on this one for a while, but thought I would start a thread for it. I will post the proposed letter which explains the situation but I have just realised to my horror that had they not been missold the PPI in the first place they would have not been £2K in arrears as their monthly payments were £110 extra because of the PPI - a total of £4K overpaid. As they have a suspended possession order I am hoping to be able to go back to the court and get it revoked on the basis that if the PPI had never existed they would not have been in arrears. Does that sound like a plan? Assuming we succeed in the reclaim that is.

 

Anyway, proposed letter. Constructive criticism welcome - not done one of these before:-o

Dear Sirs

 

Account Number:

 

I am writing on behalf of my clients to request that the Payment Protection Insurance sold at the time the above loan was taken out be refunded in full to the account, and that interest which has accrued to date be similarly refunded. The amount of the insurance amounts to £13K, the interest charged to date amounts to £4.5K

 

The reasons for reclaiming are:

 

At no time were my clients told that PPI could be purchased elsewhere to cover the loan

 

It was not made clear that the insurance was only valid for the first five years of the loan - in fact the first time this became apparent was on receipt of the information requested about the account under the Data Protection Act.

 

My clients were led to believe that Payment Protection Insurance was compulsory and indeed were misled into thinking that they would stand more chance of getting the loan if they took the Payment Protection Insurance

 

It was not explained to them that there were certain exclusions within the policy that could affect them. The Payment Protection Insurance was added to the loan balance at the outset and at no time was it explained that there were PPI policies where one could pay monthly for substantially lower premiums and which would cover my clients for the whole term of the loan.

 

The terms & conditions of the insurance were not fully explained - from the tapes received the insurance has been mentioned in passing but no detailed explanation of what was being taken on was given. Additionally the calls where the matter was mentioned were made while both parties were at work and unable to discuss such private matters in any detail.

 

As we do not have any further information about the insurance we are still unable to successfully review the policy, however it seems clear that the policy was not sold fairly, reasonably and within my clients’ best interests so we require you to cancel this policy with immediate effect and to ensure a full refund of the premium and associated interest is made to my clients’ account with yourselves as soon as possible.

 

Additionally, from the documents received it would appear that the loan in xx was mainly used to settle a previous loan with First Plus. However there is no further information regarding this earlier loan other than the outstanding balance of £47K shown on your letter dated xx. As this earlier loan is obviously connected with the current loan I would have expected to have received details of this with the information received under my clients' request for information. As it would seem highly probable that this loan also includes PPI I therefore require full information regarding the original date of the loan, full statements and details of any PPI sold at its inception.

 

If we do not receive a favourable response from you we will pursue this claim through the Financial Ombudsman and indeed through the courts.

 

I enclose a signed authority from my clients authorising me to deal with this matter on their behalf.

 

I look forward to your considered response.

 

Yours faithfully

Hi Goldlady.

 

I'm a former industry insider and have a detailed knowledge of secured lenders. There are a number of lines you could take on this. When were the loans taken out? When the first loan was paid off to take out the second loan, your customers would have incurred early settlement interest charges as well as a low rebate on the PPI. These costs would effectively have been added to the new loan, thus increasing the debt. I would suggest that you add that the implications of this were not made clear, nor were the effects of this on the customer's entitlement to the "cashback" element of the PPI arrangement ie this is deferred for another 5 years.

Hi Jonny - thanks for that. I am wondering whether I should ask for the information on the first loan before I start claiming as if you are right then I really need all the facts and figures first. My friends don't remember there being a first loan :confused: but the tapes and the loan agreement both indicate that there was.

You definitely need to check that out. Contact FIRSTPLUS and ask for copies of all papers related to all loans for your customers - if they have had a previous loan, I suspect there is more that they could claim because of the settlement charges effectively being added to the new loan and further interest then being charged on them! I very much doubt that this would have been made clear. Taking out the new loan would have meant cashing in any existing PPI (with the consequent low rebate) and the deferrment of the "cashback" entitlement under the PPI for another 5 years. Go get 'em. Happy to provide any help I can.

Hi, have had the information about the earlier loan and the PPI charged and refunded on it. The first loan was only for 3 months. Have put it all into a spreadsheet and so far (need interest rate changes from 2005 onwards which will be in the SAR pile somewhere) the total to reclaim is over £19K. Well - to refund to their loan balance anyway;)

Dear Sirs

 

Account Number:

 

Thank you for forwarding details of the original loan as requested.

 

I now writing on behalf of my mates to request that the Payment Protection Insurance sold at the time the above loan was taken out be refunded in full to the account, and that interest which has accrued to date be similarly refunded. I have attached a spreadsheet which details the amounts of PPI involved, both with the initial loan and the subsequent one.

 

The amount of the insurance on the first loan amounts to £11250 plus interest added at an APR of 9.4% for the period December 2003 to March 2004 when the second loan was taken out, amounting to £270, less the refunded amount of £10500, leaving a total of £1020.

 

For the second loan the PPI amounts to £12750, the interest charged to 31 May 2007 amounts to £5300; we do not have information about the interest rate applied since 31 May however have calculated it at the rate of 9.4% until August 2005 and then at 11.5% APR for the remaining term, making the total amount of interest applicable to this second loan £6900

 

The total amount of the reclaim requested is therefore £20,660

 

The reasons for reclaiming are:

 

At no time were my clients told that PPI could be purchased elsewhere to cover the loan

 

It was not made clear that the insurance was only valid for the first five years of the loan - in fact the first time this became apparent was on receipt of the information requested about the account under the Data Protection Act.

 

My clients were led to believe that Payment Protection Insurance was compulsory and indeed were misled into thinking that they would stand more chance of getting the loan if they took the Payment Protection Insurance

 

It was not explained to them that there were certain exclusions within the policy that could affect them. The Payment Protection Insurance was added to the loan balance at the outset and at no time was it explained that there were PPI policies where one could pay monthly for substantially lower premiums and which would cover my clients for the whole term of the loan.

 

The terms & conditions of the insurance were not fully explained - from the tapes received the insurance has been mentioned in passing but no detailed explanation of what was being taken on was given.

I have had a reply from the broker who set up the PPI in the first place. It is truly amazing.

 

They have gone out of their way to tell us that they were not covered by any regulations at the time the PPI was mis-sold (2003) and then openly admitted that they did not tell my friends there were other options, did not discuss the features/benefits of the PPI with them, and indeed that they could have done anything they bloody well liked and my friends have no comeback whatsoever!!!!!!!!!!

 

I suspect they are wrong:mad:

 

They have said that if we approach the FOS they will not consider it as it was before PPI was regulated.

 

I have a strong suspicion that whilst they may not have been regulated that the UTCCR has some bearing here. Help!!!

 

Thanks

Hello Goldlady,

 

When they state they were unregulated, what do they mean, were they loan sharks, they surely had to be regulated by someone:eek: What about the financial leasing association.

 

Do they just mean that the loan was taken out before the FSA came to power and that is why the fos will not look at it. This is a ploy that some companies use to appear untouchable and to put people off, but there is always court. This sale would have been commission based so therefore a financial incentive to sell it.

 

Sorry to be unhelpful, but maybe ring the Oft, Fsa and trading standards to see if they can shed any light on the regulated matter.

 

Good luck

Well done on your win Goldlady,

just another bump up the ladder to help others in the battle against First Plus.....any help to my case would be appreciated...... thank you

aa

I have no legal training and the advice I offer is a matter of support. Before you commit to any Legal action you are advised to contact a qualified legal practitioner.

------------------------------------------------

Bank charge successes:

Halifax - Full settlement incl interest.

HSBC - Settlement, goodwill no admission of liability about 75% of claim.

RBS - Settlement, goodwill no admission of liability about 70% of claim.

2 ongoing claims for bank charges with HSBC with more to come. (Supreme Court ruling could have upset these claims) They did :mad:

PPI Successes

PPI 4 settlements on 9 loans. FOS involvement on 7 added on the 8 % Statutory interest another 30% to both.

2 claims settled in full with LV without FOS involvement.

2 claims settled in full with HSBC without FOS involvement

 

PPI Claims ongoing with:

Cap one Now with the FOS

Barclays. Paid up today 24/04/10 cheque received for over £4,500 and in the bank.

LTSB still have to decide on this as their SAR production was abysmal. Papers data mixed up documents missing etc

 

1 Complaint not upheld by FOS they said it was ICO issue. Complaint upheld by ICO. See this..

Post 290 from

***RBS PPI Claim Long fight but, WON***

 

Please do not PM me for advice as it may be sometime before I can respond.

 

Keep at them. Do not give way and do not accept all they tell you, they will delay and stall for as long as they can to prevent repaying you your mis-sold PPI.

Hi Goldlady,

 

I have only just come across your thread and 'sweet victory'. I have a very similar case to your friends but additionally when listening to my tape it is also clear that the representative encouraged me to borrow more than I needed and re-adjusted my debt so that it would by-pass their credit council....! I am owed in the region of £44,000 - £50,000 from First Plus (£20,000 PPI and at least £24,000 in monthly payments should come off my loan that's without any interest being worked out), they have so far after 2 letters offered me £7,000!!!!!!

 

I'll go away and work out what they owe me and tell them I will not accept anything less than a full refund. I have copied everything to the FOS and will update the site with any further information.

 

Cheers,

Sooze

Hi all!

I am in need of help PLEASE...filling in my N1 form to hand in to my local court tomorrow, dont know if I have all the calculations correct, do they need to be absolutely correct ?

Maybe someone can help me?

my ppi was £2021.33

the interest paid to date i am told is £1819.77

So a total of £3841.10

I was told to take this total and divide by 60 to get the "monthly premium" I would have been charged, ok ...so this works out at £64.01

I have then put this through the bank charges calculator which gives me....a charge value of £4416.69, 8% interest at £1026.93 and a total of £5443.62.

And a daly int rate of £1.19, is that right?

Does this sound right ?????

Any advice most welcome, really dont want to get it wrong!

if you can tell me when the loan was taken out and what the interest rates have been over the period I can work it out my way and see if it is about right, assuming that you haven't already got this sorted out.

Goldlady, thanks , youre a star!

the loan was taken out in July 2002, the ppi premium was £2021.33, the interest from start of loan to present day is £1819.77 ( I phoned lender to ask for ths info ), so then someone told me to divide by 60 to get what would "work out as" the monthly sum I'd have paid....ie £64.01.

so.am i right in thinking i then put this through the calculator from the first payment date to present day.

The rate has been variable started at 8.5% and currently 12.9% (written on top of the statement).

Many thanks for your reply x

Very much appreciated x

We could do with knowing when the interest rate went up. At 8.5% over the whole term I calculate the interest you have been charged to be £1270. But if it was at 12.9% the interest would be £2209. So it sounds as if the amount they have told you is probably about right, due to changes in the interest rate.

 

BTW if they have worked out the interest on the PPI I would suggest they are considering settling;)

There was never any mention of the Rule of 78 so I think the answer to your question is No. I have heard of the R of 78 but need to read up about it. Their loan commenced in 2004 so whether this has any bearing I don't know.

 

 

I have just discovered that whilst FP have restructured the loan internally the CRA records still show it in arrears, and indeed their own 'front of house' computer records do too - letter on its way;)
