    • I'm not sure we were on standard tariffs - I've uploaded as many proofs as I can for the ombudsman - ovo called last night uping the compensation to 100 from 50 pounds for the slip in customer service however they won't acknowledge the the problem them not acknowledging a fault has caused nor are they willing to remedy anything as they won't accept the meter or formula was wrong.   I'd appreciate more details on the economy 7 approach and I'll update the ombudsman with any information you can share. 
    • To re-iterate and highlight my urgent question on this one: The N24 from the court did not include any instructions to submit paperwork 28 days before the date, unlike the N157 received for other smaller claims. Do I have to submit a WS for this court date? Link has!...
    • No, reading the guidance online it says to wait for a letter from the court. Should I wait or submit the directions? BTW, I assume that the directions are a longer version of the particular of claim accompanied by evidence, correct?
    • Thanks for opening, it's been another rough year for my family and I've procastinated a little.. Due to the age of my defaults on this and other accounts (circa 2021), I really need to avoid a CCJ as that will be another 6 years of credit issues. Mediation failed as I played the 'not enough info to make a decision' however during the call for some reason they did offer settlement at 80%, I refused. this has been allocated to small claims track, court date is June 3 and I've received their WS. I'm starting on my WS. They do appear to have provided everything required of them (even if docs could be reconstructions). Not really sure what my argument is anymore but I do want to attend court and see this through. Should a judgement be made against me then I will clear the balance within 30 days and have the CCJ removed - this is still possible isn't it? I'm going to be reading up today and tomorrow and hope you can provide me some guidance in the meantime. Wonder what your advice would be given the documents they have provided? I am now in a position to clear the debt either by lump sum or a few large installments - Is this something i should look into at this late stage? Thanks as always in advance
    • I have now received my SAR. It includes a great deal of information! Is there a time limit on how long account information is kept and/or can be provided to debtors? I have received many account statements which were not previously sent to me. I remember that the creditor should provide explanations of any acronyms and abbreviations that maybe used in the documents. Is this still the case? Also what, if any, are the regulations in regard to adding fees to a debt? Can fees be added to a debt after the court has approved a charge on a property. Perhaps due to the numerous owners of the debt, many payments I made were not properly recorded on the account, some were entered over a year after the payment was made! Following the Legal Charge, I paid every month until my payments were refused. I am trying to compute the over payments, but the addition of fees etc. is confusing me. Any comments and/or help would be appreciated.

    • 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.

Send them this letter

Please note that I am only prepared to communicate with you in writing. Should it be your intention to arrange a "doorstep call", please remember that there is only an implied license under English Common Law for certain people to visit me on my property without express permission; the postman and people asking for directions etc (Armstrong v. Sheppard and Short Ltd [1959] 2 Q.B. 384 per Lord Evershed M.R.).

Please therefore take note that, I revoke license under English Common Law for you, or your representatives to visit me at my property and if you do so without my permission, you will then be liable to damages for a tort of trespass. You would also be conspiring in a trespass if you sent someone to visit me nevertheless.

Hi Sunflower, to add to what Steven stated if it's P2C what they did to me is dated their letter two days before posting giving you three days to ring C1 or Debitas by the time their letter arrives the time scale has expired they turned up on my doorstep the day after receiving their letter, P2C's letterhead does not contain their telephone number only that of Debitas so there is no way of putting them off.

This letter should be kept by the front door, in case anyone DOES come round.

 

Pass it out throught the letter box and tell the caller to leave.

 

Also, see here about recording calls - http://www.consumeractiongroup.co.uk/forum/announcement.php?f=167&a=143

 

It would be good to get DCA threats and abuse on a recording to send to the appropriate authorities.

Hello everyone, my first post but i thougt i'd add this info for everyone's Cap 1/Debitas/P2C problems. Received a letter off P2C (arrived after the deadline had expired) a couple of weeks ago. Sent off the home visit warning letter by recorded delivery and thought no more about it. However, got a card in the letter box from P2C on Wednesday, leaving a name and a number to call. Luckily no-one was it but my wife was understandably worried at being at home on her own if they visited again.

 

As the number left was a mobile i sent a text stating that any attempt to return to my property would result in the police being called. Received a call almost immediately from P2C. The woman i spoke to said they had no record of the warning letter i had sent (!) and that they can only go on what Debitas tell them which was that i had not been in contact. Explained i had a box full of letters (most sent Recorded) to prove otherwise. She was almost apologetic. But i did warn before the call was over that i would call the police if anyone from P2C set foot on my property again.

 

So while it's not nice having someone visit you home, my real anger is reserved for Debitas and i'm currently writing yet another massive letter of complaint.

Confused or wot!

 

My OH account is in dispute as mine is, both of us are being treated the same, receiving the same letters etc etc.

 

OH received letter this morning stating 'Your account is now being dealt with by Capital One please continue to make payments until we can arrange a payment arrangement .... etc etc etc'.

 

Was with debitarse . . . So what's changed? haven't sent stroppy letters like I have been. 'CCA' same as post #1 - perhaps it's not enforceable after all!

I take it that debitarse can't write, looks like my account has also been passed back to Capone. Ms renshaw sent my a letter to remind me that she sees no harm in continuous telephone calling and to confirm that 'vee vil continue until you comply'. A well at least I have the name of the person who has authorized these calls. Also stated that they will not correspond in writing and the only way forward is for me to ring them. Still banging on about bank statements, wage slips tax returns & tax statements - BOG OFF, thats confidential & you ain't getting it!

 

Had a right to send p2c as I wouldn't phone them - pity I got proof of posting of the letters I'v been sending.

 

Looks like stalemate!

Hi Beachy!

Sorry to hear that you still are being badly pestered by phonecalls and letters by Debitarse.They are really a joke.I never to my knowledge in spite of that threateinng letter got any agents visiting my home so far but my hubby ignores the door bell anyway so they would have been wasting their time!:DDebitarse has gone strangely quiet on my phone and i have not spoken on phone to them since over a week ago when one of their DCAs threatenend to phone me every five minutes until i gave her my security details and talked to her! LOL:(Perhaps Debitarse realised it was pretty bad behaviour even by their standards!and thought they had better not phone me so much! That would have been an interesting recording to play back to TS! or police!:DI think crapital one or Deitarse must realise they have not got a leg to stand on in my case! as they have not to date even come up with a signed application form let alone any signed enforceable CCA!Though they keep playing silly beggers and pretending they have!Keep your chin up and dont let them get you down!At least thanks to this wonderfuil site we are not alone and can fight these crap DCAs and give them a run for their money together!:D

Morning All,

As Emma said that number is the one cap/debitas use, the other they use to bypass BT call blocker is 'unavailable out of area' this is their silent call maker (I've caught them out a couple of times - normally pick up the phone and wait for them to say something before telling them write only)

 

As I mentioned both our accounts seems to be back with capone now that the e.renshaw has posted letters to us , what she can't or won't accept is the fact that I am paying both acccounts until OH manages to get a job, until then they can take a hike, I'll pay what I can afford - nothing more!

 

Calls have dropped from about 8 to 2 or 3 a day since I sent a copy of a letter written to TS & our MP, if cap 1 think they havethe right to phone until I comply with their demands why the drop off in calls since they received that letter?

Hi Beachy and Emma

I found they ignore letters too!Before asking for a CCA i did write to them telling them i had fiancial difficulties and offering them a payment plan!of what i could afford and asking them to freeze interest and stop charges at least for a few months to help me get back on my feet but they did not even have the courtsey to reply and just sent me another statement with loads of interest and charges slapped on it and threats about being in arrears with them and still pestered me with phone calls at home and work even when i said i only wanted communication in writing when i talked to them on phone!so i went down the CCA route and now they getting nothing! :mad:

I've sent letters to everyone they've thrown at me. They've ignored everything and keep sending me "Terms and Conditions" on a regular basis, even though they are pursuing me via NCO at the same time.

 

I've got NCO phoning daily after they didn't read my last letter properly and seem to think I was requesting a CCA from them and so wrote asking for a £1! F***wits. They keep asking on the phone what my dispute is, so I repeat "with Capital One" until they put the phone down. Winds them up a treat.

 

My only happy point is, apart from a fortune in paper, printer ink and postal/recorded delivery charges, I haven't paid Capital One in months and won't until they pull their fingers out, answer my questions, produce my paperwork and accept what I can afford.

Hi BeachyI am now in same boat as you as ive just received CCA documents exactly identical to your cca documents provided by crapital one! Exactly like you one is the signed application form and other page is terms and conditions,The thing is it does on both our application forms make a reference to please read use of information overleaf(section 23) of the agreement!on both your copy and my copy implying there is something on otherside of this application form which is a blow!but i am not very knowledeable about what people can do to fudge these agreements up.but me and hubby looking at mine which is identical to yours,Dont know if i am clutching at straws but on our front signed crapital one application form i notice there is a long faint line just under our name and and address just above middle portion saying credit card account agreement!and going on to lising some terms about applying for card! and then there is another long faint identical linejust above yours and my signature box! I was wondering if that could be some indication that the middle part of that application form could have been tampered with?or someone being creative with microsoft as one thing i have learned on this forum is that there have been several suspicious CCAs that may be tampered with ,but wondering if i am just clutching at straws!i am going to attempt to post my one on my crapital one thread and try and get some opinons on mine.I hope my post makes sense! as my brain feels like mush trying to look at my cca!

Hi Sunflower,

 

Good old Crap1, true to form!

 

I'd recommend scanning what they sent & posting up for it to be checked (blank out personal details).

 

Regarding the lines - these may very well be fold marks from when it was posted to you for signing (I may be wrong but that was what I was told or read).

 

Don't let them mush your brains, Iam still working on the principal that it's not enforceable - I've told 'em to take me to court, they haven't, they said they will continue to call - sent them a copy of a letter I sent my MP and they've backed right off their continuous calling.

Hi Beachy

I started a new thread about this new signed alleged CCA from crapital one,Everyone looking at it thinks it is unenforceable!I did mention about the signed form alluding to a section 23 overleaf which is on both my signed form and your signed form!implying that our CCAs have conditions on otherside! but the terms and conditions crapital one sent with application form and are allegeding is what is on other side of signed form do not have a section 23!Scabhunter was looking at my CCA as well and agreed that was fishy!and shows there something funny about our CCAs!As those terms and condition only have 3 conditions!no sign of a condition 23!

Hi one & all,

 

It's been pretty quiet for a few weeks from Capone, even their calls have stopped (messed up my call log).

 

Received letter same as OH (post #168) 'your account is now being dealt with by Capone please continue to make payments until we arrange a payment plan, you have two options pay in full or call our specialists to discuss repayments'.

 

You must act today (sent 22 Dec.), or your account will be passed to another DCA.

HAPPY NEW YEAR to you both.

 

I've been around the forum with my other threads but haven't posted on this one for awhile because Capone have been quiet until yesterday's post, now they've woken up again I am expecting the calls to start again, glad to see debitarse have dropped it for the second time - guess I am doing something right.

 

To be honest I don't even think their letter deserves a reply, nothing has changed, there is a Standing Order in place so they are getting something- I flatly refuse to speak with them on the phone and there is no chance of setting up a direct debit for them as they could vary the amount they take from the bank - with a S/O in place I control how much they have.

 

Since they set P2C on me saying that they had lost contact (which they hadn't as I have recorded letters that I had sent) I just can't be bothered anymore with them.

 

I have been subbing other Capone threads but noticed that it starts to get really interesting the everything goes quiet and the thread seems to die.

 

Beachy
