    • Even a Piers Morgan is an improvement and a gutless Farage Piers Morgan calls for second Brexit referendum WWW.THELONDONECONOMIC.COM Piers Morgan and Nigel Farage have faced off over Brexit and a second referendum in a heated reunion on BBC Question Time.   “Why don’t we have another referendum about Brexit?” he questioned. “I seem to remember when 2016 came around we were told there was going to be control of our borders and it was going to be economically beneficial to this country. And eight years later we have lost complete control of our borders… and economically it seems to have been a wilful act of self-harm.”   ... Piers missed off : after all somebody said a 48/52 decision would be "unfinished business" by a long way - was that person just bul lying (again)  
    • when did they (who) inform you there was a 'police case' and when was this attained? i will guess the debt is now SB'd as it's UAE 15yrs. have you informed the bsnk ever by email/letter of your correct and current address? you can always ignore anyone else accept the bank,  Block and bounce back all emails. Block any text messages  Ignore any letters unless it's: - a Statutory Demand - a Letter Of Claim - a Court Claimform via Northants bulk.  
    • I left Dubai 8 years ago and intended to return. However a job prospect fell through. I’d been there for 15 years. I decided to pay my credit card and the bank had frozen my account. There is no means to pay the CC so completely unable to pay when I wanted to other than the bank advising me to ask a friend in the UAE to pay it on my behalf!  fast forward bank informs there is a police case against me for non payment. Years later IDR chased me and after months/ years they stopped. Now Judge & Priestley are trying their luck. Now I have received an email in English and Arabic from JP saying the bank has authorised them to collect debts. Is this the same as IDR although I didn’t receive anything like this from them. Just says they are authorised?
    • The neighbour's house is built right on the boundary so the side of their house is effectively the 'wall' in our garden separating the two properties. It's a three storey house and so the mortar poses a potential danger to us. Because of the danger, we have put up an interior fence in our garden to ensure we don't risk mortar dropping on us. That reduces the garden by 25% which is not only an inconvenience, but it's the part of the garden where we had lined up contractors to install a patio and gazebo which we will use for our wedding reception in less than 2 months. We have spoken to the neighbour's caretaker who is on the case, has spoken with a roofer and possibly a scaffolding company, but there are several issues. They don't seem to understand the urgency. As long as there is a risk of falling mortar, we can't carry out any work in the garden, and unless they hurry up, we're looking at cancelling our wedding as it's not viable to book a venue because we can't use our own garden! Also, they want to put the scaffolding up in our garden which would be ok with us if it was a matter of a few days and they hurried up, but there is a tree (most likely protected by the conservation area), so most likely they can only reach part of the roof with the scaffolding if they put it up in our garden. We suggested a roofer with a cherry picker but they seem to want to use a company they've used before. Any and all comments, suggestions, advice is more than welcome.  PS. does it make any difference that the neighbour is a business (ltd) and not a private dwelling?

    • 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.

Received these from them. The first letters says they are going to get the CCA from their client, the next says they have bought the debt. The deed of assignment is just great. I should send them one saying that me and my mum have been assigned there entire business so there!!!

Hi Tartan,

 

The deed of assignment should come from the original creditor :confused:

 

Seeing as they say they've purchased the alledged debt, then they should have no trouble getting you your CCA...Yeah right :rolleyes:

 

Good luck and best wishes.

So if they have purchased the alleged debt why do they have Clients.

 

Strange that Lowells seem to have the same problem.

 

 

Sounds like an equitable, or simple, assignment. In which case, the Salford Simians are obliged to pass on the CCA request to the OC under s.175 of the Act. It also means that they can't issue proceedings on their own.

 

I'm not certain why companies enter into these equitable agreements. With an absolute assignment the buyer keeps all the proceeds if able to collect. I suppose that in an equitabel assignment the buyer splits the proceeds with the OC, and presumably pays less for the debt in the first place.

.....wasting my time or yours by scanning and posting the 1 page copy of my application form Robbing Way & co that they believe satisfies my CCA request back in March.

 

I am sure I have seen a letter to send to them thanking them for their response but in order to comply they must send a agreement with the following.....etc

 

Anyone got a copy they can paste on here please?

Thank you for your response to my request under the Consumer Credit Act section 78.

 

I am pleased to see that you confirm this as a true copy of the original agreement executed by yourselves on the 26th July 2007.

 

As you must realise this agreement does not conform to sections 60(1) and 61(1) of the Consumer credit Act and is therefore unenforceable under section 127(3) of the same act.

 

 

You had until (date here) to provide me with the true copy I requested. After that date you entered into default of my request. Whilst the account is in dispute, you are not permitted to ask for any payment, nor am I obliged to offer any payment to you. Furthermore, whilst the dispute remains, you are not entitled to charge any interest on the account, make any further charges to the account or pass the account to anybody else. I would also like to note that as from the (12+2 working days + 30 calendar days) it becomes a criminal offence.

Please note you may also consider this letter a statutory notice under Section 10 of the Data Protection Act to cease processing any data in relation to this account with immediate effect. This means you must remove all information regarding this account from your own internal records and from my records with any credit reference agencies including any defaults. Should you refuse to comply, you must within 21 days provide me with a detailed breakdown of your reasoning behind continuing to process my data. It is not sufficient to simply state that you have a ‘legal right’, you must outline your reasoning in this matter and state upon which legislation this reasoning depends.

 

Should you fail to respond within 21 days, I will expect that this means you agree to remove all such data.

  • 4 years later...

Well after 4 of my DCA's got greedy some 4 years ago and finding this site, I had my first visit from a collection agent. Noting that I live in the very far North of Scotland I never thought they would bother but it would appear they have a local self-employed monkey operating up here now.He knocked on the door and asked me to confirm my name and then went on to say that I owe Robbers Way X amount of money. I asked who he was and he said Robbers Way (?) and then asked for some ID and he showed me some crappy laminated card that he had blantantly made himself. He was getting his pen out and his payment card ready for me to hand over some cash......instead he got told to leave my property. He said 'so your refusing to pay' I said that I was asking him to leave as he had not made an appointment and I did not give him permission to be on my property. He said that he wasn't on my property.....you have to walk up a 20ft long path to get from the pavement to the front door!!! Anyway I basically shut the door on him but he was still saying 'so your refusing to pay'.When I checked its 4 and 1/2 years since I last paid them anything so 6 months and it will be SB (as im in Scotland). This was for a CC account that had no agreement.So a big thank you to this site for giving me the knowledge and confidence to deal with what should have been an intimidating experience.

I doubt he will be back......it was his confidence that by getting me to confirm my name and then telling me what I allegedly owe to Robbers Way, I would just get my wallet and give him cash!!! The look on his face when I asked for ID followed by asking him to leave will stay with me for a long time.....oh and the cost of petrol and his time chasing unenforcable crud from Robber Way!

Hey, well, poor guy, he is only trying to get the job done, don't take it personally :)

 

I'm all for people 'trying to get the job done' but when they try and use the intimidation act and assume that they don't have to be polite, civil or prove who they are, they will get no quarter from me.If he had been polite and civil I would have explained that the alleged debt was unenforcable as they have no agreement but as it was he got a broad side from my upvc cannon!!!!
