Following a recent income and expenditure review with a debt charity this morning, it has become clear that my financial situation has deteriorated significantly, making the continuation of the agreed monthly repayment of £140 unfeasible.   The primary reason for my financial hardship remains the ongoing health challenges faced by my two Sons, which have necessitated frequent hospital visits and medical care since 2017.    As a result, my employment opportunities are limited, and I am self-employed with Uber Eats to accommodate their medical appointments, hospital stays, and monthly infusions.   It is crucial to highlight that pursuing Debt Relief Orders (DRO) or bankruptcy would not yield any additional funds for creditors, as I reside in rented accommodation and possess no other assets or savings.   Furthermore, I do not foresee a change or improvement in my circumstances in the foreseeable future due to the long-term nature of my children's health conditions, and the health issues I am now suffering for to the stress of this IVA.    I have faithfully maintained my IVA payments for 36 months without missing a single installment. Regrettably, my situation has become increasingly untenable, leading to depression, anxiety, and suicidal thoughts related to the financial strain of the IVA.    To avoid defaulting on payments, I have resorted to borrowing money from friends and family, resulting in a further deterioration of my health and consequently even more debt which is definitely not the solution I expected from you.   Based on my recent income and expenditure assessment, I am currently experiencing a monthly deficit of approximately £650 due to the escalating cost of living. Therefore, I respectfully request that you propose an early settlement to my creditors, based on the payments made to date, taking into consideration the exceptional circumstances surrounding my children's health and my own mental well-being. My wife too is unwell and unable to work leaving me to look after them all with zero support from the government or council.    If it is not deemed appropriate to request an early settlement, I will have no alternative but to cancel the IVA and manage my creditors directly.   Additionally, I must convey my dissatisfaction with the service provided by Creditfix, to whom I have been referred from Hanover. The level of service at Creditfix has not met acceptable standards, and I feel confused and unsupported throughout this process. Despite my worsening situation, Creditfix has shown little interest in understanding my circumstances and instead has pressured me to increase payments. Your last email requesting modification and an increase in payments clearly demonstrated to me that you have no interest or concern for my family or my welfare and are our solely to get what you as much as you can, giving zero regard to my situation.    Lastly, I want to clarify that I have exhausted all avenues of financial support, and I do not have any friends or family who can lend me further funds to cover the outstanding amount on the IVA.   I appreciate your understanding and assistance in this matter. Please advise on the next steps and provide any necessary documentation to facilitate the negotiation of a settlement with my creditors.   I have attached a copy of my latest income and expenditure form that I completed this morning that shows how struggling I am right now and can't afford to pay this any longer.    Thank you for your attention to this urgent matter. I eagerly await your response.   Yours sincerely,
    • No because telling a story in your statement chronologically it would be out of run sequence. 
    • I have just sent my IVA company the following letter in going to wait to see it credit fox accept my request to put to my creditors or request to accept payments so far as my full settlement but I suspect credit fix will try they're best to avoid that happening - I'm confident the credited will agree but getting credit fix to agree is another story.    I have today sent them the following letter and if they don't accept I'll stop the agreement and ignore and on that instance plese help me clear all my issues guys as I'm sure I'll need lots of help to get the likes of lowell and Cabot of my back.    I do know that most thus debt was taken out around 2009 and 10 and some in 2015 meaning the original debt are all. Over 6 years for sure and I hope you guys can guide me how to deal with them now  firstly below is a list of all the creditors with amounts and some are duplicate and then followed by the letter I just sent to iva company 
    • I see CEL accepted all the stuff about you being a genuine customer and offered to settle the matter for £20. What was your logic for refusing their offer of settlement? I'm not saying you were wrong, we have plenty of cases where motorists have quite rightly told the PPCs where to stuff their £20 offers.  Just interested in your reasons for making the decisions you have been making about your case.  
    • Because its not connected to this claim.....Ideally if you had received the claim you would have requested information pursuant to CPR 31.14 and a CCA request for the agreement. DSAR only reveals your personal data held which would be minimal with the this claimant. You can leave it in if you desire but it adds no weight to your statement.   .

    • 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.

It needs to be set out correctly so I think you are going to need help from someone else with this bit, maybe the mods could give someone a nudge who could help.

Guess where we went to last night?? Luckily we only live 2hrs drive from Bradford so we took the defence in ourselves by hand. Sorted it out on time - looked at some examples on here & adapted them to suit our case. Not sure what happens next though - anyone got any ideas on court procedures??

The next thing that will happen I think is that your defence will be acknowledged and the other side will be sent a copy. Then the court will issue an allocation questionnaire to both parties, which is where you tell them which court you think is appropriate for the hearing (small claims, fast track, multi track) and they will decide based on the complexity of the case. At this stage the claimant has to pay more money to file their AQ so if your defence has rattled them (lack of CCA being quite a good one:p) they may actually back out at this stage, if they haven't already.

 

Fingers crossed;)

I am pleased to see you have got the defence in on time, did you get stopped by the police for speeding ? lol:D.

 

Hope it all goes well for you and give Eversheds a rocket where the sun don't shine. From personal experience I wish i could have my time with them all over again but still "water under the bridge" as they say.

 

Good Luck and keep us posted with any updates:).

Thanks everyone.Thank you in particular BB - as if it hadn't been for your keen observations of the thread, the papers would have still been sitting in the pile at home waiting for mid-June to arrive. It's funny how things happen - must be fate. Let's hope we have a good outcome. Thank God Bradford is not too far for us - no way could we have got much further in such a short time!

Hi Catwoman,

 

Re your thread on time limits, you should stick to one thread it helps others know to what you refer.

 

The Judge who looks over your case should now be deciding on the next move in the process. You are still at the stage that goldlady described and must wait for direction from the court.

 

Im sure you will here fairly soon its a waiting game im afraid.

Hello all,

 

We received our AQ this week - N150. Will be completing this over weekend - deadline is 7th July - and court is only 10mins from our home. Today we received a photocopy of the AQ which the other side have filled in, presumably to send back to the court. They have filled in Section G Costs as £400 in costs incurred to date and an estimate of their overall costs to be £3,500!!! Is this another scare tactic to try & make us sit up & think again???

 

I'll be seeking guidance from anyone who can help me complete our form. To date we've still not received a CCA or info under CPR, as requested in earlier letters. They have also ticked the box for wanting a "stay" for a month - what is this?? We would rather get it over & done with.

 

Many thanks for any help.

Hi everyone,

 

Just received some papers from the Court - am hoping someone on the forum can translate into laymans terms.

 

It is an order from the judge stating:

 

1. Claim is allocated to fast track (this bit I understand!)

 

2. Disclosure of documents shall be dealt with as follows:

a) The parties shall give to each other standard disclosure of documents by serving copies together with a disclosure statement by 4pm 15/08/08.

b) Any request to inspect the original of a copy document shall be made by 4pm on 29/08/08 and any request shall be complied with within 14 days of the receipt of request.

 

3. Each party shall serve on every other party the witness statements of all witnesses of fact on whom the party intends to rely by 26/09/08.

 

4. Each party shall:

a) serve any request for clarification or further information based on any document disclosed or statement served by another party no later than 14 days after disclosure of service and

b) reply to any such request served on it within 14 days of service of teh request.

 

5. Completed pre-trial check lists shall be sent to the Court by 7/11/08.

 

6. The claim shall be listed for trial during trial window 5/01/09 to 23/01/09 with a time estimate of one day.

 

7. Because this order has been made by the Court without considering representations from the parties, the parties have the right to apply to have the order set aside, varied or stayed. A party wishing to make an application must send or deliver the application within 7 days of service of this order.

 

It is points 2, 3, 4 and 7 which I,m not clear about.

 

Any help gratefully received. To date we've still not received CCA or a reply to our requests & the judge knows this as it was stated on our AQ.

Hello everyone,

 

Out of the blue today we received a Notice of Discontinuance from the DCA solicitors dealing with the case - what a relief - it's been dragging on for so long. To date we had complied with every date on the court's order however, the other side had complied with not one thing!

 

Does this mean that as it didn't get to Court, it will now be sold on to another DCA?? I can't face going through all this again!!!

 

Also, as we hadn't discovered the CAG forum, when first chased to the alleged debt we made about 5 payments of £50 to the DCA - later realising that they were collecting this illegally. Would it be wise to quit whilst we're ahead or would it be worth trying for a refund? We didn't tick the box for a counterclaim on the cort form.

 

Thank you to everyone for your expert guidance through all the legal jargon, etc.

Hi there

 

It means that youve won and if they have discontinued after a defence was filed then you are entitled to your costs as well at the rate of £9.25 per hour, of course the costs would need to be reasonable and i would suggest around 20-30 hours would be about right, however you do need to break down your costs properly

 

also it now means that they need the permission of the court to restart a claim again so i think you are pretty safe

 

if they sell it on to someone else you have a complete defence and just tell them to go away as the case went to court and they failed to prove their case so you owe them nowt

Well done catwoman!! Superb news.

 

If it was me I would quit while I was ahead as you said above - but that decision is entirely yours.

 

Have a great weekend:D

Thank you for your good wishes.

 

For the time being I am going to put this out of my mind. I'm just glad that those arrogant, bullying, big-headed idiots at that particular DCA are off my back. I thought they may be up to something when the phone calls stopped - even though we were mid-court proceedings!

 

I am so glad I found the CAG forum!

Well done you have won!, you can relax now as it would be extremely difficult for them to resurrect this case, as PT says you can now claim your costs, if you wish, however this is your decision.

 

Im sure this is a weight off your mind.

 

Regards CCM

 

Just to make sure i would phone the court on monday to check they have notification of the discontinuance, but im sure it will be fine.

Please note i have no legal training any advice i give comes from my own experience and from what i have learned on this site
