    • good idea take some pix and put them in a PDF read UPLOAD dx
    • thread title updated moved to overseas debt forum. sadly as they are outside any UK jurisdiction upon DCA rules which state in the UK they must not call employers, there not alot you can do to stop these scammers. make sure you totally make private ALL social media twitter/facebook/linked in etc etc as there no-way for them to findout where you work otherwise so you must have a leak somewhere. find it. your employer details arent even legally available to UK DCA's so how have they found it out to date???  simply write to the BANK informing them of your correct and current address ALWAYS!!. if you want to arrange payment or not TO THE BANK ONLY thats upto you. never ever ignore a Statutory Demand a Letter Of Claim a Court Claimform. if if if any of those ever happen. till then ignore and rewash. dx

    • Hello All,  I’m hoping someone can help me urgently here. Firstly, I’d like to say I have read multiple other threads and have some what an idea of what I should be doing, however my case might be slightly different so coming with my own questions here.    my situation is I lived in Dubai and had a credit card and a loan, loan with HSBC and credit card with Emirates (or the other way round), I lost my job and was forced to leave the country as I was staying in the country on my companies visa.    since coming back, after a few years 2 different debt collections agencies have been approaching me (one being IDRW and the other J&P). I’ve never answered IDRWW and they constantly chase me by calling and messaging me and my employer. My current company is ok with this as I explained the situation but I’m soon to be joining a new company who definitely won’t be ok with being messaged and called. I’m afraid to continue to ignore them as they may message and calm the new employer as they have before and I’ll lose my job. However, it seems clear from these forums that dealing with the debt collection agencies is never a good idea. You shouldn’t agree to the amount or pay anything.    j&p caught me on my phone but I still haven't sent them any money or confirmed the amount they’re saying is owed, they keep pushing to pay off the “principal” amount by making monthly payments, from reading these forums it seems like if I make one of those payments (they have provided bank details for ENBD), then it’ll just be paying off interest and not actually clearing the principle debt and the bank won’t even approve receipt of payment or that it’s coming off principle.    this is my predicament as ignoring them might not be an option if they chase my new employer. Maybe there’s a way to ensure the debt collection agency don’t contact my new employer?? I don’t know? Massively appreciate peoples help here. Thanks,

    • 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.

Shame that Sparkle's gone. Still, perhaps next time they'll introduce us to their friend 'carefulnotmean' who was with us earlier!

 

Or should that be 'notverycarefulandmean':D

Sorry Apollo18 Only connection to Swift is they are trying to repossess my sister's property. Am in N. Ireland and very interested in case going on there.Over the last year have got to know The High Court in Chicester Street and Enforcement of Judgments office in Bedford Street too well.

After finding this Forum I have sent a Subject Access Request to Swift but have nothing of interest to Post.

Am very grateful to all those who are posting especially Sparkie1723 and pkelly

Just received a copy of Mark Whites witness statement for thursday...........2 pages ( 5 paragraphs) it has no substance at all.........but here is a section where he contradicts himself.

 

He says in this statement

 

 

"The trial simply proceeded on the Defendants counterclaim"

 

and goes on to say

"That the matters raised in the " Joint Defence Statement" are either matters that have aleady been litigated or are of no relevance and provide no Defence to the claim for possession".

 

This is where Mr White comes up against this paragraph of our Defence.

 

Judges aren't daft.

 

33.. The Defendants also submit that the making of known deliberate misleading false statements to the Court under oath should be considered as an issue of contempt of Court by Mr White, and refer the Court to the case KJM Superbikes v Hinton [2008] EWHC 1280 which deals with the effect false statements can have on a proceedings

 

First he says all that was heard was our counterclaim ............then he attempts to say the possession hearing was heard and decided and judged at that trial.....again trying to misled the court.......The judgement summary says at the end ......The order of the Court is that the Counterclaim is dismissed ..........................nothing else

RE the previous trial.

 

The fact of the matter is that when I was given the Court Bundle by the solicitors I had engaged 2 days before the Trial I saw that the Claim submitted was absulutely weak and insufficiently pleaded .............so dispensed with the Barrister .................the person that accompanied me to Court from the solicitors was not a solicitor and could not represent me.

 

I was forced to act for myself .......I had had just two days to look through this BUndle that consisted of over 400 pages...and I took on a senior Barrister from Big Gun chambers in London.......a significant imbalance of representation I suffered an injustice...............the Reorder refused me point blank permission to appeal...........and I had to fght him to get permission to apply for permission to appeal........which when I looked into this found it was far beyond me to do..hence I am in the position I am in NOW the Recorder was wrong .

I should not have been forced to take the case on I should have had a choice ........that was denied me.

 

I know my case a lot better this time.

 

Since then the legal complaints authority have awarded us over £3000 for poor service and poor advice.

The Barrister is under investigation by the Bar Council........... as is Swifts Barrister for using Mr White as a witness who makes misleading statements under oath

One of the documents Mr White has submitted attached to his "statement of truth" is a copy of the Judgent summary of the previous trial ( which I have had for months) and I know it inside out.

Its in this Judgement summary where I will get my bulletts from......Mr White has been a bit careless there............I don't have to include it in my full defence and counterclaim..he's already produced it:)

SWift have got to prove that our loan was NOT redeemed by the sale of it to Kestrel Loans No 1 Ltd for which they received money.................I believe that they will find that a little difficult as it will be a contradiction of both of those companies accounts.

 

They have presented in their application claim a copy of their legal charge registered at the Land Registry.

 

It does not state what it is for .......just a charge..........it could be for a packet of Crisps........it does not mention........ as Abbey Nationals does that it is a security for monies lent.

 

In legal documents all the i's must be dotted and all the t's crossed.

 

Just letting sparkle72+ know in advance for "transparency" sake, so they can think up an excuse!!

Mr Webster has just confirmed to the lads in N.Ireland.........."he is still CEO of Swift and will remain".

That also means he is in for a trip to Belfast High Court!!!!

 

Question: Then why doesn't he answer questions ttat are put to him directly and personally instead of being ignorant?????

Totally confused now: Swift has this on the web site

They say Swift is not scrutinised, are they confused or is it me.

 

About: Swift Group

Swift is an intermediary only lender that specialises in non-conforming loans and

mortgages. We never seek business directly from consumers.

Swift provide finance for residential and buy-to-let mortgages and secured loans throughout

the UK including Northern Ireland.

Intermediaries can offer Swift’s products with confidence because:

We provide an uncomplicated product range

We have unrestrictive lending criteria and

We deliver market-leading service excellence

The areas where Swift can be of significant help to intermediaries include:

Secured loans up to £250,000…or more

On secured loans where consent has not been given by the first charge lender, Swift

can still lend

Loans and mortgages on unusual properties (for example Wimpey No Fines, Laing

Easiform, high rise flats…and many more)

Customers with a poor credit history (unlimited CCJs, arrears etc)

The ability to take non-standard income such as pensions, benefits and family income

into account

No upper age limit

Swift’s underwriting and processing can be more flexible because all Swift’s lending is held

on balance sheet and is not securitised.

Swift Group is based in Brentwood and has been operating in the UK lending market for

more than 25 years.

Quote from Blackies post

 

"We never seek business directly from consumers". False Advert

 

THEY DO THE HAVE MANY DIRECT AGENCIES That seek the business for them

 

I have a written statement from an ex director of one of these agencies saying that his agency was well documented and was given an agency No by Swift ...their purpose was specifically to sell and promote Swifts Loan and mortgages.

God I've just realised it was them who contacted me asking me if I wanted a second loan, their advert said I could have £18,000 within days. So the don't contact consumers direct. I am getting totally confused by everything that is going on. The deeper you all dig, the more I can not believe how this company got away with this. I know that the FSA are currently looking into their dealings, but look how long it took them with GMAC, who were never as bad as Swift.

Take it from me Blackie it's not the FSA Swift have to worry about........... its the Asset Recovery Unit they have to beware ............;)

Just a couple more pieces of the jig saw needed................. and the Lads in N.Ireland know just where to look for these couple of pieces;)

Thank you blackie..............things going nicely with the Spotlight investigation.....remember they have been following Swift very closely for over two years and like Panorama make sure that everything is proven before they broadcast any thing.
