    • We need to see the actual document from the IAS where it is written - "The Operator's evidence shows no payment for the Appellant's vehicle, or anything similar. It does show two payments for the same registration in quick succession. I would take a reasonable guess, based on the circumstances described, that the person paying has paid for the registration of the person they assisted again." You can't just type it up yourself. At the hearing in July or August or whenever the judge will have two Witness Statements. One from Bank's director says you never made a second appeal. You say you did make a second appeal and the IAS concluded that payment was made. The judge will immediately twig that either you or the director is lying.  But who? Fail to show the documentation form the IAS and instead just produce something you've typed yourself will make it look like you just made up the appeal and you are lying and you will lose the case. Please let us see what the IAS adjudicator sent.
    • I used to have a retail outlet in London selling my husband's photography.  We also had a co-op with staff so they weren't directly employed by me, but I paid for the other overheads etc.  When my husband died, I carried on as usual for a while but then I became ill and moved quite far away so logistically was becoming very difficult.  I came to an arrangement (verbal) with one of the guys I trusted, that I would send him the images to print and sell as normal, and I wouldn't take any money, as a short term solution until I got back on my feet and worked out the best way to do things. He would pay all the  rent, insurance etc... Over a year later, not able to give things away for free anymore,  I drew up a contract as a wholesale agreement, so I would get everything printed and sent to him and I would invoice his for what he ordered. I noticed form the beginning that he wasn't ordering enough or frequently enough to be making any money, and was suspicious he was doing his own orders on the sly and ordering just enough from me to keep my happy.  I checked with my printer, which I've been with for 20 years, and he sad he wasn't getting orders for my images from anyone else. I emailed a few other printers to ask them to keep a look out for some images but I soon realised this would be impossible to police.  The only option really would be to buy a print from him and check the stamp on the back of it.  I finally managed to get hold of on the prints on sale, and sure enough, he did not order it through me.   In the contract he signed in 2022 it explicitly states that he must destroy all files I had previously sent him etc etc so e is in breach of that.  When I drew up the contract, I was careful to make sure it was legally binding, but before I let rip at him, I need to know where I stand.  The contract is here: PARTIES This WHOLESALE AGREEMENT (“Agreement”) is made effective as of 30th June, 2022, by and between ############################## The Supplier and the Client, collectively referred to as the "Parties," hereby agree to the following terms: TERMS AND CONDITIONS SALES OF GOODS The Supplier agrees to provide the following goods to the Client (“Goods”): Description of Goods ################################# Doc ID: 3d54c1d336d8780243801e0e068ebd33114b088b BOTH PARTIES AGREE: The Client purchases the Goods through the Supplier directly, and agrees to delete/destroy any previously held digital images (Goods) owned by the Supplier, and agrees not to use any such files for monetary gain, outside of this agreement, either directly or through a third party from immediate effect of this agreement. The Client purchases the other materials necessary for resale of the Goods independently of this agreement. The Client shall have exclusive rights for resale of Goods at ###########, and also with permission, as a retailer of the Goods elsewhere, provided that there is no conflict of interest between the Supplier and the Client. The Client is free to decide their own retail prices, for the Goods. The Supplier shall use #####  to provide the printed Goods on Fujifilm Crystal Archive paper, with Lustre finish, and will not use any other Printer unless #### cease to trade, without prior approval from the Client. The Supplier shall not impose restrictions on size or frequency of orders made by the Client. The prices provided by the Supplier shall not increase for a minimum of 3 years, unless the prices of the raw materials rise, in which case the client will be informed immediately. Any discounts/promotional prices of raw materials shall be passed on to the Client by the Supplier, and the invoice will show adjustments for this, as well as credit for return postage of any damaged goods. This agreement can be terminated by the Client without notice; the Supplier must give notice of no less than 90 days, unless the terms of the agreement are breached, in which case, the agreement can be terminated with immediate effect. PAYMENT Orders must be paid for upon receipt of invoice, via Bank transfer: ######### Doc ID: 3d54c1d336d8780243801e0e068ebd33114b088b DELIVERY AND INSPECTIONS All orders received by 12.00am (midnight) shall be processed by the Supplier the following working day and delivery of order shall arrive in accordance with the Royal Mail schedule, or DPD, should express delivery be requested. The Client shall be liable for the delivery charge which shall be added to the invoice. The Goods will be delivered to the address specified by the Client. The Client shall be provided with order tracking, and should any problems arise with the ordering system or the couriers (Royal Mail, DPD), the Client shall be informed without delay of any such issues. The Client will inspect the Goods and report any defects or damage to the Goods in transit as soon as possible upon receipt of Goods, and will retain damaged Goods for return to Supplier for refund/replacement. GENERAL PROVISIONS CONFIDENTIALITY The prices of the Goods and other information contained in this Agreement is confidential and will not be disclosed by either party unless with prior written consent of the other party. INDEMNIFICATION The Client indemnifies the Supplier from any claims, liabilities, and expenses made by any third party vendors or customers of the Client. GOVERNING LAW This Agreement will be governed by and construed in accordance with UK Law. ACCEPTANCE Both parties understand and accept the wholesale arrangement stipulated under this Agreement. Doc ID: 3d54c1d336d8780243801e0e068ebd33114b088b IN WITNESS WHEREOF, each of the Parties has executed this Wholesale Agreement as of the day and year set forth above.   Signed by us both electronically.   I haven't broached any of this yet, and I am looking for some advice about what action to take.  The main issue I've got is that he has still go those images.  If I terminate the contract, I will need to know that he no longer has those images and I can't think of a bulletproof way to do this. I'm thinking I might tell him I will continue with the contract but ask for a  sum in damages and say that if I find out he's still doing it down the line I will terminate the contract and sue him for damages. The damages side of things I'm not sure how it would work as he is self employed, and I'm positive he doesn't declare all of his earnings to HMRC, in order to find out how much I have lost, would the court demand to go through his tax self assessments?  I'm not sure how to proceed with this, I don't want to lose that place as an outlet as it is in a prime spot in London, which is why I let him have those images in the first place as I would have had to pull out altogether at that point.  I am regretting it somewhat now though.  Please help.

    • 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.

dca have not replied/responded to th CCA/Status Barred letter sent. I need to check if they received or banked postal order. By my counting the 12 working days is ending tomorrow. The dca have another 30days. What then?

 

if the dca have not supplied the necessary information's after 12+2 days for the CCA, then they have defaulted. WHAT THEN?

 

Anyone able to elaborate on this:

Anyone able to elaborate on this:

 

DCA's are in the habit of reminding us that they are 'not the creditor' and have to apply to the OC for the agreements. That said, even if that were true it takes them longer than 12 +2 days to come up with one generally.

 

However, that being the requirement under the CCA then 12 +2 days it is and if they fail, which most do, I am reliably informed that they require a court order - an order of the court to enforce the debt.

Hi all ..and x20,

I have not received any replies from lowell portfolio ltd

- it's coming to a month since i wrote them the CCA/Status Barred Letter ..

.Is there something that I could do rather than just waiting .

...the unknown is stressful in itself ..

 

.I guess no replies from lowell can be good news or not?

 

How cna I find out if they cash the postal orders and if they did not

...then are they obligated to supply me the CCA information?

Hi Bob

 

Not too sure whether this is what you want to hear but Lowell have a court order now saying that this debt is payable and they are enforcing the court order and not the agreement so they wouldnt need to provide you with a copy of the agreement under the CCA.

 

That said it would seem good business practice to provide you with it, what is the nature of your dispute on this? Have you no knowledge of the debt or feel it is time barred? im just wodnering about the significance of the agreement if you know that your built up the debt or feel it is stat barred?

gravitas,

I am not too sure myself .

..I suffered from stress and depression from around 98/99,

finally resigned from work and eventually stop paying .

 

..during the period of around 2000

- now

..i have been staying at different places and have been taken back to my birth country by relatives .

..well, to survive and have the support and help .

..it was only recently that i came back and built up courage to open letters and through CAG, dealt with the dca's.

 

So, I do not know what I owe or how much i owe

....it's been so long and I am only now getting the strength (with lots of help here) to deal with the issues at hand.

I think it is status barred and I wrote letters to this effect and also CCA as advised.

 

Last week,

I apply the N244 to the court and now awaiting a reply.

this is where i am now

..there is so much here ..

.and me worrying and stressful does not help

..i know ..

.but I will deal with this now,

one way or another ..

and hopefully I can come out in one piece and be myself again ...

 

gravitas,

as much as i can remember .

.debt was after my divorce .

 

i took all debt thinking it wold help my ex since children is with her .

.i paid from 92/93 until 2000/01

..or thereabout

...and after my resignation from work,

...things got out of hand .

 

..well, i was much wanting to keep alert and alive .

..and keep strong for my 2 children ..

 

.i know this is not easy but i like to come to the bottom of this .

.and if i really owe the money

..well, then i will look at it now that I am a bit stronger

...face it and deal with it ..

 

on the one hand I feel empowered and energy to deal with this

...however the more i read, and from the non-respond from dca's or dca's returning postal orders from CCA letters,

it leaves me wondering what esle I have not done .

.that I should .

..hence I am asking and asking for help ..

..which probably makes me a 'pain' to many .

..but I am trying darn hard and getting my brain in the right order .

...one day at a time ..

Bob, you need never feel like this...every one of us with few exceptions are here for the same reasons and at some stage have been exactly where you are. It is frustrating when companies don't reply, I've had that myself having written eleven letters over as many months trying to draw people out to answer our claims - all I can say is just bear with it, take everything slowly, keep asking questions and you'll slowly get the answers, it takes time to get to grips with some of these things, but it comes in the end with all these people pooling their knowledge and experiences . There is so much information already available on this forum, it takes time and patience, but believe me you are doing really well. Keep going, it'll all unfold for you.

 

That's just a pep talk...we'll have to go back over your thread to find out what you need so bear with us..;)

andrew1,

thanks for the reminder and more reminders ... I greatly appreciate it very much ....and I will remember what you said.

 

I think the quiet period is the hardest and I just have to be patient and stay focus ... asking questions and learn ...

 

Have the hearing end of October for N244 to get set aside for Charging order - dca/solicitor have not replied to us on CCA/status barred letter - what else can I do?

 

Bump! All this waiting can be hard - I have been reading through various thread ...learning but at the same time, lots of information to digest ...and can be confusing .... the information is there ...so need to get my head focus ....keep it up ALL and thanks again

 

my N244 is end of next month ..when do i start to plan for this hearing? Is there an idiot guide for me about what to do and say in court ....help needed ....anyone can share their experiences ...and knowledge ...

 

bump.

There have to be some 'ifs' and 'buts' you're keeping secret from us JC.

 

Otherwise, theoretically, I could whack a charge on your house, my neighbour's house and the Lord Mayor's house. In fact everybody could be whack happy, whacking charges on everybody else's house, with applications under The Charging Orders Act 1979 pointlessly passing across court counters for nigh on the last 30 years.

 

So what's the real deal here Jon?

 

x20

x20,

I am not sure what the real deal is

- as long as i can remember way back in the early 90's, loan was taken out, then following divorce in 92/93, defaulted payment, then my solicitor wrote to dca and agreed a list of reduced payments

. I was in employment then and paid whatever reduced payments until 2000/01 or thereabout as far as I can remember.

 

Because of divorce and financial problems,

I also had lots of problems at work, experience stress and depression

- was getting treatment, having medications for a period of time, seeing my GP (I am sure the doctors will have my records on my stress/depression.

 

For over2 years experiencing stress at work, etc ..

.i could not take it anymore and resigned.

 

That's when thing went downhill and I stopped payment

- no work, no money.

 

My family (8 brother and sisters) especially my brother, 2 nephews, 1 niece here in England and a few good friends rallied round helping and supporting me taking me in to stay with them for support and help.

 

You see, I come from to this country in 1979 for my training as a Nurse, qualified in 82' and worked as a nurse until 1989 and then I went to teaching nurses until I resigned in 2001 following my bout of stress/depression.

 

For over 20 years I dedicated my life working to care and help people with learning disabilities, their parents, teaching student nurses and all thid has gone due to pressure at work/stress/depression/divorce and from working under very stressful conditions. Things just took over and I did not know what hit me then.

 

All these years, I have been keeping alive and just living (so I thought) with help from family/friends (and I know they all have helped me and protected me).

 

Only recently, I found CAG and I read and read and begun this journey..

.my children has always given me support and all the time encourgaing to be strong.

 

I know I have to start looking at my life (well, I know everyone around me has kept me going all these years with positive encouragement, money to live on etc) and I know I should be strong being a nurse but stress and depression has a funny way of acting and I guess I was so engrossed with this that I became negative and more negative during the the last 6 years.

 

The amount of tears and sadness cannot be measured and it is not a pleasant experience to go through

- only now I am beginning to find strength and courage to face my own worse enemy(me) and I started to find myself and whatever problems I am having.

 

This itself is constantly a worry (on one hand i put a brave face to myself and my 2 children but on the other hand, inside me trembles with fear and mixed feelings) I can only reassure myself and look forward .

I am 48 years now, gets tired easily but I know I have to start looking at my life and learn to deal with whatever.

 

Eitherway, I cannot help myself with what I went through. It as taken me many years to get myself in some shape to be a little of myself again.

 

Since I came to the CAG, besides getting all this help and support from you and others, I have started to apply for a nursing job through an employment agency but I am not sure if I will get a job after being out for so many years.

 

But as said I do not even know what I owe and to whom. I just want to find out.

The end of the day if I find out from the court that I have to pay then I hope I can find a job again and start to pay whatever I can afford.

 

I do not know if there is any real deal ..

.for what it is worth ...

I am forcing myself to think hard and remember whatever I can

- I know I am worth it now whatever the outcomes maybe

- a very rude awakening but I am here. I am constantly thinking about this now and I guess I am dealing with it but the weak in confidence and doubt is in me

- and I know I need to be strong, whatever this strong means

....I am trying ...

 

x20,

getting my mind round this is my real deal

- this reality is both a nightmare as well as a relieve and i do not know exactly which is which at the moment.

 

Everyday i think and think about this and even more question comes into my head and I have little or no answers.

The letters from dca all adds on to this worry (I know there has been plenty of reassurances) and I am working hard, trying to tell myself to ease off.

Thoughts keep coming and I cannot avoid it

...the more I try the worse it gets.

 

All I know is I am awake (so to say) and I learning and remembering the past as much as possible and dealing with it one day at a time.

Give it a try you'll be surprised just how easy it is.

 

Incidentally a caution is not a charge & should you find there is one & unlike a charge you can demand the alleged creditor put up or remove it.

It did not happen to me with my divorce lawyer, the one i chose was not one which went for the jugular or for the kill but rather a labrador ( i chose this because I was thinking only about our kids then)

- basically i left everything to my ex

- house, taken on debt and she wanted custody of kids,

cars because I know fighting means pain and suffering for our kids and that I did not want to see.

 

After divorce, I pay what I could until I just could not and then forgot about it because I was like neither here nor there, just surviving if you can understand what I mean ..

..anyway, the charge order has been done and my hearing is end of next month.

 

Besides thinking and wondering what takes place at the hearing,

I have another dca (ccj) - case now transferred to my local court and awaiting hearing date.

 

The third dca have written 3 letters now (2 of them saying they will accept reduced payment and final one which came today says I have to pay or they will take further action. I was adviced not to reply to them despite the threatening letters.

 

About 6 weeks ago from today, I have written to all dca above with the CCA/Status Barred letter.

Their replies were either cannot supply requests because they have a default judgement

- ccj (which I now know is within their rights) and to this current one (Charge Order)

I have also received nothing from them and they have all returned my postal orders.

 

I am lost not knowing what to do next but will attend hearing and see what happens .

.. I am not sure what can be my defence .

..so x20, or anyone can help me to plan ...

 

x20, i have less than a month before the hearing

- at what stage do i plan for this hearing and what are the things that I can prepare for this hearing

- advice please ..

 

hi x20 and all

days are getting nearer to the hearing

- end of this month for N244 set aside hearing

 

...when do i start to plan for this and what do I say when I am there

...in my mind all the time and cannot get it out of my mind even if I try .

..so if can advice me on this please ...

.many many thanks

Incidentally a caution is not a charge & should you find there is one & unlike a charge you can demand the alleged creditor put up or remove it.

 

Divorce lawyers do it all the time just in case the spouse flogs the house & does a runner to foreign shores with the proceeds leaving the partner with nothing

 

A Caution can only be put on if the Cautioner has an interest in your assets. It can be a nuisance because if you have a mortgage and want further monies from a loan then the lender may insist you clear the caution to enable them to have clear title. However, you would be notified by the Land Registry of any such attempt to register a Caution although sadly the Land Registry are just like Credit Reference Agencies and give you little chance to remove it other than by proving the Cautioner has no right, Guilty until proven innocent, One was put on my property by an ex employee and I was duped into the circumstances which lead to its registration, however I left it there having exhausted LR complaints without success and it sat there for seven years depreciating until I required finance and I had to pay it off in full as a condition of the loan which p**ed me off no end, so whilst it is not a Charge as JonCris states, it has much the same effect. I am somewhat sceptical of JonCris's assurances that this can be done willy nilly, although I bow to his experienced knowledge.

 

One can leave a Caution almost forever without satisfying it should you so wish and let it devalue into oblivion. They are an irritation, and can be a big irritation too.

 

As for Preparing Bobneedhelp, it's never too early and the earlier you prepare the better you understand, the better you look at all angles, the better you deliver your defence, the more questions you ask, the more answers you get. Just like asking friends around for dinner, - Prepare - it goes well, leave it til the last minute - panic...

 

I'll leave you in the capable hands of Jon & x20 now though....

Andrew1/Sarah,

 

Many thanks for the explanations - so if the charge is allowed then I will have to pay all claims once i sell or if i am force to sell then i pay back all claims ..bumps! Will deal with this when it comes then!.

 

As for planning for hearing, I have been thinking about it since x20 have helped me in August. x20 is still helping me through this despite his highly busy schedule ..and now Jon is here too to advice ..many thanks :) Jon

 

To remind myself what I have done so far:

1. Applied N244 and hearing now end of this month (Oct)

 

2. Written to dca/solicitors with CCA/Status Barred Letter in August (they have not replied or supplied me with any information's (statements, agreement etc). Have they have defaulted? or not? if they have defaulted - WHAT AND HOW CAN I PRESENT THIS AT COURT?

 

2. Allege debt as far as I can remember was in late 80's and defaulted in 92/93 after my divorce. I had work then and with divorce lawyer writing, agreed to prorata payments - made all payments until 2000/01 - but around 98-2001/02 ...had lots of work pressure and stress, dca always asking for more and more money then even though I had not change job etc ...went into depression and resigned from work late 2001 - no money so stopped payments. During this period (family, friends all chipped and helped out to keep me going so I was literally here and everywhere staying with them for support, hence focusing on myself and lost touch with debt (well, under the circumstances my mind was just to live and forget then!).

 

House was bought with deposit by family and repayments contributed by other family members (mother, sisters and brother's - have 2 brothers and 5 sisters) - so that is why I have a house to live in and also my 2 children can come and be with me whenever - children are now 17 and 19 and I must say they are my greatest children - their undersatnding and support, help given and still supporting me is immeasurable - I have been putting up brave face for them all these years ..and over the last 2-3 years ...they have helped so much in looking after the house when they come weekends (they live with my ex since my ex wanted custody when they were small and I just agreed because i know that fighting custody is not good for children growth and develpment - so as hard as can be, I was at a distance and keeping close and regular contact with them - now they are bigger and responsible, they helped me through a lot more than they can ever imagine.

 

It took me all these years to begin to find myself and relearn to be ME again. In this relearning process, it is worrying but I know I have to see this through to the end. I am making every attempt to fight this and start my life again. I have lost all confidence and having this additional support and help from CAG has allowed me to move on with MY LIFE once more - and I know it will be worth the effort either way.

 

It has been so long that I am unsure when i really stop paying. All I can remember is I have not pay them after I resigned from my work.

CAN THIS BE CONSIDERED STATUS BARRED? If it is, HOW CAN I PRESENT THIS AT COURT? If not then what's next?

 

If I have missed anything or you (anyone) need to ask me questions which might help me plan for this hearing ...PLEASE ASK and I will answer all I can.

 

Thanks.

Andrew I'm fully aware how it's supposed to work in an ideal world. What I'm pointing out is that the LR will allow the placing of a the caution WITHOUT seeing any actual evidence of that interest & the home owner may not discover this until selling

 

As late as last XMAS I was involved in just such a matter which was reported in the press

There isn't any & in fact to do so is in direct breach of their own guidelines but they still do it & when questioned they claim pressure of work for not being able to check all applications

 

This may change as I understand complaints have been made to the Ombudsman.

JC, thanks for highlighting and reiterating ... I am now going through it not knowing where I am treading or ending up like - it is scary for me and I think of this everyday - the only reassurance is I tell myself to be strong and relearn - one day at a time ...and of course saying it in my mind is easier done ...i am working at it ...and thanks very very much for the advice and support .....besides this I am also learning about another CCJ which I have applied for set aside ..now awaiting a date ....this one has been transfered to my local court as well ...has been for about 10 days ,,,,not heard from the court - do i call to find out or wait?

Apart from calling DCA's Bob, the way I got through most of my initial concerns when I came here first was, if in doubt 'ask'

- the court staff are very helpful indeed,

if you are unsure about anything then phone them to check your concerns.

 

TBH, that's the way to learn by getting it from the horses mouth sometimes.

I almost got on first name terms with the lad in my court back office,

when I actually went into the court I went and thanked him for his help

 

- Same with so many things, we get frightened by 'them' or 'they' when people speak of others

- who are these 'they's?'

 

These are people just like you and me, doing a job, got families, debts too - never be frightened of anyone these days, just go by the laws of the land and believe me you'll look back and surprise yourself.

 

I've been watching what you have done since you came on here

- take a bow matey, you have done brilliantly

- it takes time to get your head around, but empowered people are not what these institutions are used to, you are a head start before you begin. Keep at it, I know it's daunting and we haven't all got our hands and heads with all the answers, but between us? - synergy they call it, blinkin marvellous. ;)

Hi ALL,

Tell me if I am going round in circles and am confusing myself, worrying unnecessary etc ... I would like to take time out to forget but I cannot do so - it is the usual happenings in the brain ...thoughts keep coming in and there is no stopping it ... so instead of avoiding I am trying to find answers which I have not got or know how to deal with it - it is the fear of the unknown I guess - so, sorry if I am being persistent and writing alot - PLEASE REMIND and TELL ME if I am - might just help me to recoup.

 

Hi all,

I am trying to prepare for the hearing now in 2 weeks time and working hard to get my head round this preparation - thanks all for help thus far.

 

Anyone else who can offer advice I will be grateful too :)

 

Still working on the skeleton draft in preparation for hearing - it is hard to do but i am at it ...thanks for the support and help.

 

you are absolutely right ...a lot of my concerns stems from the last 6-8 years of just living and allowing my family/friends to care for me ...it is hard now taking stock and working through this ... personally, I do not want to give the family/friends more additional troubles ..they have done so much for me and is still doing so ...to come this far, I know I have done well to get thus far ...and more importantly, I am keeping my head above water ...despite the headaches and worries etc ...

 

I will call the court to find out more about the other set aside for CCJ. At least then I will know what is happening, whilst iin the meantime preparing for this Charging Order set aside due in 3 weeks time.

 

What will the start be like ? Judge talks? then questions? like what? for instance?

 

hello x20, andrew1 and all,

My hearing for set aside for charge order is only just over 2 weeks away-

Quote
Can anyone start to help me prepare for my hearing to set aside.

 

I am going into this hearing not really knowing what are the questions which will be asked of me - in this case I am unsure WHAT and HOW to answer as well. DOES this sound irrational to think of this?

 

Does telling my history leading to the default helps? i.e. had responsible job as a nurse/nurse teacher since 82, allege debt taken 89/90 ish, defaulted in 92/93 after divorce - agreed small repayments until 2000/01 but stopped payment around 2001 after a few years of stress/depression from work, etc - then I resigned from work

 

- moving about several address with family/friends and family overseas (all helping and supporting me in many different ways - I cannot remember full details but have passport to show traveling.

 

For my stress/depression from work in 1998-2002/3 seeing doctors for help with medications - gradually managed to reduced and fade out to avoid dependency on these medications last year or so but still have prescriptions for stress taken when necessary or cannot sleep/worries etc.

 

So lots happening when I was unwell, also, have 2 children - then young now in teens/adults - they helped loads having thought deep about it ..and just have to stay strong for them and me ....found CAG recently, August ...then started dealing with this up until now ......

 

What else can I prepare - I wrote CCA and Status Barred Letter but no replies from dca/solicitors? Letters written around 24 August.

  • 2 weeks later...

Any reason why nobody has answered bobneedhelp's posts since andrew1 on

6th October? He needs help preparing for a hearing on 27th October. I would help but unfortunately don't know enough to offer advice.

Please note: I have no qualifications in this area and any advice offered is given in good faith.
