The application form is illegible.

I have had no deed of assignment but who would that have to come from, RBS or 1st Credit or Connaughts or........

What sort of letter should I write to Mckensie Hall in response. These were sent recorded delivery by Mackensie Hall.

Just checked and Post 308 is the last letter I sent Machall but you might as well spit in the wind. I bet 'cause it's christmas and DCA's don't have many friends they try and get money in from somewhere. I'll try this one.

 

Dear Sirs,

 

Account no xxxxxxxxxxxxxx

 

 

Re: my request under the Consumer Credit Act 1974

 

This account is in Dispute .

 

On xx/xx/2009 I wrote to xxxxxxxxx requesting that xxxxxxx supply me a true copy of the executed credit agreement for this account.

In response to this request I was supplied a mere application form which did not comply with the requirements of the Consumer Credit Act 1974.

 

The document sent purporting to be a credit agreement does not contain any of the prescribed terms as required by section 60(1) Consumer Credit Act 1974. The Consumer Credit (Agreements) Regulations 1983 (SI 1983/1553) made under the authority of the “1974 Act” sets out what the prescribed terms are, I refer you to Schedule 6 Column 2 of SI 1983/1553 for the definition of what is required. Suffice to say none of the terms are present in the document

 

Since this document does not contain the required prescribed terms it is rendered unenforceable by s127 (3) consumer Credit Act 1974, which states

 

127(3) The court shall not make an enforcement order under section 65(1) if section 61(1)(a)(signing of agreements) was not complied with unless a document (whether or not in the prescribed form and complying with regulations under section 60(1)) itself containing all the prescribed terms of the agreement was signed by the debtor or hirer (whether or not in the prescribed manner).

 

This situation is backed by case law from the Lords of Appeal in Ordinary (House of Lords) the highest court in the land. Your attention is drawn to the authority of the House of Lords in Wilson-v- FCT [2003] All ER (D) 187 (Jul) which confirms that where a document does not contain the required terms under the Consumer Credit Act 1974 the agreement cannot be enforced.

 

In addition should you continue to pursue me for this debt you will be in breach of the OFT guidelines, I draw your attention to the Office of Fair Trading’s guidance on debt collection

The OFT guidance which was issued July 2003 (updated December 2006) relating to debt collections and what the OFT considers unfair, I refer to page 5 of the guidance which states;

 

2.6 Examples of unfair practices are as follows:

 

h. Ignoring and/or disregarding claims that debts have been settled or are disputed and continuing to make unjustified demands for payment.

 

I require you to produce a compliant copy of my credit agreement to confirm I am liable to you or any organisation, which you represent for this alleged debt, if you cannot do so I require written clarification that this is the case. Should you ignore this request I will report you to the Office of Fair Trading to consider your suitability to hold a credit licence in addition to a complaint to Trading Standards, as you will be in breach of the Administration of Justice Act 1970 section 40

 

Since the agreement is unenforceable, it would be in everyone’s interest to consider the matter closed and for your client to write the debt off. I suggest you give serious consideration to this as any attempt of litigation will be vigorously defended and I will counter claim for all quantifiable damages

 

I respectfully request a response to this letter in 14 days

 

 

I trust this out lines the situation

I just checked the Mackhall/1st Credit file again and it seems that 3 times I have made pretty much the same point to Mackhall about unenforceability. Why waste paper anymore? Also, the reference number Machall quote this time bears no resemblance to the 1st credit one they have quoted. Possibly, Mackhall have been passed another dud account from another DCA/Bank that has lost it's will to function further, 'cause I keep insisting they do so to the letter of the law.

Dear Sirs,

 

Account Number/Ref M********** Client reference CAM/********

 

I received a rather strange letter from your organisation requesting to the effect that if I had opened someone else’s correspondence by mistake and had knowledge of their whereabouts would I contact you with their current address.

 

Were that the case, within my standards of decency, I would be gracious enough to pass their correspondence on to them with an apology for having opened it in error.

 

I do not see that it is the responsibility of a private citizen to contact any organisation and inform them any person’s whereabouts. Indeed, I understand that, “Fit and Proper Persons,” of licence bearing agencies go the orthodox route of tracing individuals via credit reference agencies who fulfil this role.

 

Perhaps you do not have the confidence that you meet with the above criteria.

 

Yours sincerely

 

The Occupier

Dear Sirs,

 

Re. Overdone. Your Ref xxxxxxxx

 

This service is in receipt of a complaint raised by Overdone regarding demands for payments in respect of a debt he does not owe. He requested a copy of the agreement in question and to date has not received it. Please be advised that as the complainant denies knowledge of this debt, and 1st creditlink3.gif have been unable to provide evidence to the contrary, this debt is now in dispute and as such, I would request that you halt action until the facts have been established.

 

Please be advised that The Office of Fair Trading's code of conduct in respect of debt collectionlink3.gif stipulates that debt collectors should not continue to make demands for payment where a debt is in dispute. In addition, I note that the text of your letter implies an admission by the complainant as to his liability, despite no admission having taken place.

 

I would thus be grateful if you could acknowledge this letter as a formal notification that this debt is in dispute and all action should cease until the matter has been clarified. Failure to do so could lead to your conduct being reported to the OFT and your fitness to hold a consumer credit licence would come into question.

 

yours sincerely,

 

Ms, xxxxxxxxxxx

I have scores of letters since from 1st cred but now both defaults have fallen off my credit files because of six years expiring since their default. What does this mean for me?

well to me its obvious its beyond 6 years and if you have not paid anything to anyone for this debt in the past 6 years then you can advise them to go urinate in the wind as they will be getting no money from you for a debt that dont exist.

I stopped paying them £4 a month in a debt management plan about 3 years ago. They supplied me with no valid cca or info that they bought the account. They defaulted me as soon as it was purchased over 6 years ago.
