    • Oh dear.. Misuse of facility...  Cat 6... No wonder everything is being nuked from high orbit... More in a bit.. 
    • Thank you fkofilee First question: what do I do if Monzo close my account? I need an account but no one will touch me with this marker against me. Is there anywhere/any other option that I have if Monzo close my account? MCB is My Community Bank?  Yes What Category of Marker do you have? This is what it says on the Cifas SAR: Application date: 07 December 2023 Date recorded: 09 April 2024 Expiry date: 09 April 2030 Cifas Case Identifier: 15435315 Product relating to the application, proposal, account or facility: Personal Loan – Unsecured Facility: Granted Case type: Misuse of facility Reason(s) for filing: Evasion of payment Financial Loss Value of Loss: £5000.00 When did you raise the complaint? Last night via email Do you have Correspondence / Audit Trails of communications showing that you were in severe financial strain due to an event AFTER you took the loan? I can prove that I had to buy a new washing machine, I have my pay slips showing the emergency tax code and a letter from the tax office after I had spoken with them to get it corrected and of course I can get a copy of my vet bill. And all of this was in the first 2-3 months of 2024.  I panicked. Stupid I know and as you say, I have learned the hard way and I am not in any way denying anything that I have done wrong, but it just feels a bit unfair.  It is what it is I guess and if I have to have it on me forever then so be it. I am just so worried about the bank situation 😕    
    • If it is MCB    National Fraud Database Members | Preventing Fraud Losses | Cifas WWW.CIFAS.ORG.UK A range of organisations use the National Fraud Database to share data on confirmed fraud cases, preventing over £1 billion in fraud losses every year.   They are on the register  
    • Hi @LilMissM   I guess you could call me our resident CIFAS Specialist - Personally have been through all of what you have and now have come out the other side when my marker fell off in May 2023. For a start Monzo may close your account but as I had a Marker for App Fraud (Vodafone ended up making a whole hoohah of the account I had with them) - I was with them and still am from Oct 2017 till today. And not once did they close my account. I actually spoke to a couple of current account providers at the time that I had accounts with - Nationwide and Barclays - Told them what was going on and provided all the evidence to them. They advised they may do so but it was highly unlikely now that they understood why it happened and what I was doing to fight it.    Anyway - On to your marker. MCB is My Community Bank?  I can say to you that on experience that On Monday you can be on top of the world then on Tuesday you whole life changes in a flash of an eye. Suddenly you cant pay your bills, Work isnt feasible and you are left with no other choice but to scrape by.  If this has happened to you, then join the club.  - Why is this important? Well Financial institutions get one whiff of potential fraud and you are guilty without a chance to respond. You found out the hard way   If it sounds like I'm waffling, I'm not - Its important to your issue. They have deemed you guilty by the fact that no payments have been made and potentially entered into a loan agreement knowing looking not to pay (Although thats how it may appear, there will always be factors against that)    First off - Questions - What Category of Marker do you have? If unsure, check my signature for a Credit File Guide which will tell you all you need to know about what Categories apply.  - When did you raise the complaint? They will have 8 weeks to respond. More on this in a mo.  - Do you have Correspondence / Audit Trails of communications showing that you were in severe financial strain due to an event AFTER you took the loan?   My next suggestions, Send this complaint to the CEOs office - CEOEMAIL.COM Let them make the decision as per the Complaint Procedure. Then if they refuse to remove the marker. take it to the FOS who can force the company to remove it if found in favour.  Some companies do need a slap or 2 once in a while to bring them down a peg. You could be looking at this right now.

    • 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.

Thats a shame - there was me getting all over excited !!! As it is a bank hol on monday should I enter the judgement on the friday or the tuesday ( assuming no news by then).

It is odd though, checkoutdolly filed a few days after me and has already had aknowledgment with the intention to defend. They are clearly not very logical in the way in which they behave.

Does it cost any more money to enter a judgement?

As I have pointed out loads of times, saying they are going to defend and actually defending are two completely different things. There is no way they will defend, probably won't even enter a defence- they are just buying themselves two more weeks to mess you about :mad:

Ok, so their defence is as follows:

1) It is admitted that the claimant entered into an agreement with the defendant (GE) for the provision to the claimant by the defendant of credit for the purchases of goods in River Island stores under account number X.

2) It is further admitted that the defendant debited charges to the account of X (the charges)

3) As a gesture of goodwill, but without any admission of liability, on or around april 08, the defendant credited X in replayment of charges ( less than 1/3 for info)

4) The defendant denies that the charges are a disproportionate penalty, unenforceable, irrecoverable at common law or contrary to the Unfair Terms in Consumer Contracts Regulations 1999 or otherwise. The charges are a genuine pre estimate of the cost to the defendant of dealing with the claimants default and are reasonable.

5) The defendant further denies that the Claimant is entitled to repayment of the interest charged by the defendant on the Charges.

6) In the premises, it is denied that the Defendant is liable to the claimant the amount of X, whether as claimed or at all.

 

So guys, what do I do - I now have an allocation questionaire too- any helpful advice - please?

Ok - so no more news. I admit that I have not yet filed the AQ as I have been a bit poorly over the last week or so - but have until Monday - so will ensure that it is in by Fri. What should I expect next - as I have had no further offers.

Ok so I filed the AQ and ignored his email and letter. Today he has chased me by email asking for my response. Please could someone help me with a "pokey" response to say that I aim to get the full amount?

Many Thanks
