    • Speaking of the reformatory boys, here they are with all of their supporters, some of whom traveled with them from miles away, all carefully crammed together and photographed to look like there were more than about 80 .. rather like Farages last rally with even fewer people crammed around what looked like an ice cream van or mobile tea bar ... Although a number in the crowd apparently thought they were at a vintage car rally as they appeared to be chanting 'crank-her'. A vintage Bentley must be out of view.   Is this all there is? Its less than the Tory candidate. - shut up and smile while they get a camera angle that looks better

    • Now that is an interesting article which adds afew perspective that I hadn't thought significant - but on reflection of the perspectives offered ... Now Starmer is no Blair, however 'blairite he may be perceived, but the Tories aren't tories and aren't even remotely liberal   The fast 'unannounced and unexpected election call from sunack may well be explained by the opinion linked that he hoped reform would be unprepared and effectively call a chunk of Farages largely empty bluster - making him look even more of a prat, leave scope for attacks on shabby reform candidates and mimimise core vote losses to reform - while throwing the 'middle ground' (relative) tories TO THE DOGS - and with the added bonus of likely pacifying his missu' desire to jogg off to sunny cal tout suite somewhat   thumb in the air - I expect about 140ish tory seats, but can hope for under a hundred Reform - got to admit the outside possibility of 1, maybe 2 seats with about 8% of the vote - but unlikely. I think projections of over 10% of the vote for reform is nudged and paid for speculation - but possible with the expected massive drives from Russian, Chinese and far right social media bot and troll prods targeting the gullible.
    • Commentary June 2024 WWW.ELECTORALCALCULUS.CO.UK Interesting article about just how bad it could be for the Tories.  Also Tories could be hoping on Reform not having candidates in many seats, as they were not ready.  
    • Even a Piers Morgan is an improvement and a gutless Farage Piers Morgan calls for second Brexit referendum WWW.THELONDONECONOMIC.COM Piers Morgan and Nigel Farage have faced off over Brexit and a second referendum in a heated reunion on BBC Question Time.   “Why don’t we have another referendum about Brexit?” he questioned. “I seem to remember when 2016 came around we were told there was going to be control of our borders and it was going to be economically beneficial to this country. And eight years later we have lost complete control of our borders… and economically it seems to have been a wilful act of self-harm.”   ... Piers missed off : after all somebody said a 48/52 decision would be "unfinished business" by a long way - was that person just bul lying (again)

    • 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.

on a seperate note, i have the co-op cashminder account, it works for me as i can shop where i want and i know exactly what i have with the online service, also has telephone which i dont use that much - i find this is fab for me too

 

 

*****

 

 

Nope, Co-op are my pet hate - actually over and above every other creditor, even the really skanky ones:D

 

They were my smallest debt by a long shot, but wanted the largest payment (nearly 10x what I offered!), and when they got it they carried on adding interest!!! Barstewards. At least the others are open in their crappiness, co-op hide behind the whole 'ethical banking' bit. Ethical bank my bottom.

 

Anyhoo, rant over - glad you're back on the radar:)

 

With still getting statements, I have to say OH still is as well on this account. The really weird thing is though that they keep showing credits to the account...he hasn't paid since July'ish last year!

 

We have no idea what's going on there - I must remember to put that in the letter (which I still haven't sent:oops:)

 

It is strange when they don't hassle you isn't it? You forget about it for ages and suddenly just think 'I haven't heard from x for a while'.

 

What are they up to?...

Time flies like an arrow...

Fruit flies like a banana.

the plot thickens as regards to the DEFAULT NOTICE reference given L9211, as being the DN............. it does not match this one here on these different threads, both have a reference being L9220:

 

http://www.consumeractiongroup.co.uk/forum/show-post/post-2176963.html

 

and the Default Letter reference code matches this one too!!!!

 

http://www.consumeractiongroup.co.uk/forum/show-post/post-1736431.html

 

I would of thought that the reference codes used by HBOS computer would be universal as it seems above So need your help peeps....what does your reference say???

 

As I said this probably explains why it did not say SENT TO CORRESPONDENCE ADDRESS on my S.A.R. I am believing that this has been manually entered on the collections log as if the computer automatically produced one ( of which I have my doubts as I had only missed 1 payment by the 18 August) it would of matched under deatils of any other automatically produced letter.

 

so peeps please look at the code for me, on the letters it is normally down the side, 5 digits starting with L.

 

Me thinks something naught is going on here.........................

MMM - finally remembered to look at the DN, and the ref on OH's isL9211

 

I've also just noticed another blunder on it I think; they state that the payment must be made before xx date, not by xx date. So technically I read that as giving you one day less than is shown on the notice, as you can't pay on the date specified as it would be too late.

curiouser and curiouser said Alice...

 

Any payments made to the account would extend the period required to be statute barred.. eg if you havent made any payment to the account for say 2 years - statute barred would be 4 years. But if a payment was made yesterday.. then the statute barred would be - 6 years.

 

If that wasnt on their mind then I would say, it looks as though a payment plan has been put in place and looks good if it is sold on :confused:

I think it just shows how desperate the Banks & CC companies are getting, they are just totally flouting any rule in the book to not have to go to court (or admit they haven't got the agreements) and they are down to dirty tricks methods. Just to think how much work it is causing their legal teams to dream these things up, and if we take them to court how stupid and downright deceitful they have been.

 

All I can say is "Bring it on boys, I'm ready and waiting" I aint got anything left to lose, you have already taken it !!!

Just opened a letter to OH from Moorcroft. Not had them before and it's always nice to meet new people:)

 

Amended my Iqor letter as I didn't want to get boring, and am sending this today.

 

Your letter dated 30th May (a Saturday), sent 2nd class standard, arrived with me today. Despite giving a short time to respond it would seem time was not of the essence for you with regards to delivery.

 

As I have already told Blair, Oliver & Scott, Robinson Way and Iqor, unfortunately it appears that once again the Bank of Scotland has conveniently forgotten to tell their recovery agents that this account is irrevocably unenforceable, and that neither they nor you have any right or merit to legal action.

 

I suggest you pass this account back to the Bank of Scotland, as there is absolutely no possibility of me dealing with you.

 

I do not expect to hear from you again, save for a letter informing me you have closed your files and passed the account back to the Bank of Scotland. You may include an apology to me for the empty threats you have issued which contravene OFT guidelines if you so wish.

One thing that has recently dawned on me is that they are asking for the full balance - I don't think OH has had a DN for this account...

 

I may be wrong as he hid all this from me to begin with and just threw stuff away (I know, I know, I've given him hell for it), but there's nothing in the SAR to indicate it from what I remember. Not sure how I can check though without outright asking them for it? Is there a problem with doing this?

 

Ta muchly:)

If they are asking for the full balance then, yes a DN should have previously been sent. You say there is nothing in the SAR to suggest that one has been sent ? What about the statements, is there a point in time where the was a nil balance on statements from the Halifax ? Or are they still adding interest and charges.

 

On letters received from anyone. has the balance requested changed in anyway or has it remained the same ?

Hi to all.

I have been reading you posts with interest. There is a tremendous amount of time been invested in replying to all the different DCA, I adopted a completely different approach.

Personally I ignored all communication from anyone, this resulted in different cc companies adopting different approaches, some just gave up, most sold the debt on and I made settlement with DCA's. That was before I was even aware of cca requests and this consumer action web site. I just negotiated directly on my own offering 7% of outstanding balances.

Now my point is, let them go down the court rout, if they cant produce a cca, they will fail, they may still fail for all the other reasons stated but it saves you an enormous amount of time and energy writing back and forth. eg, I kept all correspondence from say Lloyds TSB, all letters were on a 4 month cycle with the same letter repeating every 4 month and 50% settlement offers coming app every 9 month. This means they will torture you with letters because all they have to do is basically push a button.

Your time is valuable. This may not be to everyone's taste but i dont believe they get the message until about 2 years has expired. This forces them to put up or shut up.

Good luck whatever happens.

Hi Murphy69

 

I've had a read of your thread and you've certainly managed to do away with an enormous amount of debt.

 

The problem I would have with ignoring everything is that if you do get hauled into court over it, I would suspect it's very much going to be the judges opinion that you've stuck your head in the sand and not attempted to resolve matters. The fact that they send mainly templated letters is neither here nor there - they would not be expected to write individual ones to each customer as to do so would be an insurmountable task for such large companies.

 

What a lot of people, myself included, seem to do is give it a good crack for a few months, then tell them enough is enough. It's only a little while of hassle but it does kind of ensure you look utterly reasonable if you do find your way into court.

 

It's very interesting that you offered 7% as an f+f to the DCA's. The two of OH's with BOS show them as being sold at 12% so I don't think they'd be too happy with that as an offer:D That said, they've been sold a duffer in the first place so it may well be that BOS will end up accepting something around your amount if I'm lucky!

Not sure about that CB, I'd have to check...

 

Oh, while I remember, I had a lovely chat with a lady from Moorcroft today. It went something like this

 

Her: Is OH in?

Me: Yes

H: Can I speak to him please

M: No, he doesn't talk about financial matters over the phone. In any case you are chasing an unenforceable debt for BOS, and they have been told many times about phoning, so I suggest you stop now.

H: So is OH there then?

M: Did you hear what I just said about not taking phone calls?

H: Can I give you a number for him to phone?

M: NO (suppressed the urge to ask her if she was mentally challenged)

H: Ok, I'll phone back

M: No you won't unless you want me to slap you personally with a harassment claim.

H: Right, well I'll be phoning back in a little while. Click.

 

I think our phone must have broken at that point as there were no further calls and she had promised she'd phone back:confused::)

 

Oh well, maybe I'll get to play tomorrow.

 

I have to say, even if all the accounts we hold were shown to be enforceable, I'd still be 100% happier than I was before CAG. Just being able to tell them to feck off (or words to that effect) when they're being ridiculous, and not being scared when the phone rings is a huge thing.
