    • I'm not sure on the best option here, I'm happy to go with Tomlin, however I can afford to pay this one in full if needed and wonder whether I should be trying to get a reduced amount, perhaps in the court hallway before going in? that would require submitting a WS of some sort. What I 'like' (strong word) about TO in this instance, is that it allows me to keep my savings to hand for further accounts needing attention in the near future and I would hope gives me some control over the pcm amount.. I've read a number of TO threads now (fell to sleep at the keyboard last night ) but have a few questions please: - Do I specify the payment arrangement in a TO or the claimant? I'm thinking 20% lump upfront plus 96 months of circa 60 squid. - Who decides repayment amounts if CCJ is granted? if the judge, then do I submit I&E at any point? Given the amount of total debt across all my claims, I need to ensure anything I commit to is future proofed. I wouldn't want all my disposable income sent to this one debt, only to have another one in a month or two.
    • I'm sure I've said before that it's fine and dandy bringing in rules that favour you or your party, but you have to consider how it would play out if your opponents get in and want to use the same rules...

    • Few tweaks as the run order was completely messed up and the main point of your defence (reconstituted agreement) pushed to the bottom of the statement.   I, XXXXXX, being the Defendant in this case will state as follows; I make this Witness Statement in support of my defence in this claim and further to my set aside application dated 1 November 2022. 1.The claimants witness statement confirms that it mostly relies on hearsay evidence as confirmed by the drafts in person in the opening paragraph. It is my understanding they must serve notice to any hearsay evidence pursuant to CPR 33.2(1)(B) (notice of intention to rely on hearsay evidence) and Section 2 (1) (A) of the Civil Evidence Act. 2.  I understand that the claimant is an Assignee, a buyer of defunct or bad debts, which are bought on mass portfolios at a much reduced cost to the amount claimed and which the original creditors have already wrote off as a capital loss and claimed against taxable income as confirmed in the claimants witness statement exhibit by way of the Deed of Assignment. 3. As an assignee or creditor as defined in section 189 of the CCA this applies to this new requirement on assignment of rights.  This means that when an assignee purchases debts (or otherwise acquires rights under a credit agreement) it also acquires certain obligations to the borrower including the duty to comply with CCA requirements (such as the rules on statements and notices and other post-contractual information).  The assignee becomes the creditor under the agreement. This ensures that essential consumer protections under the CCA cannot be circumvented by assigning the debt to a third party. 4.  I became aware of original Judgement following a routine credit check on or around 14th September 2020. 5. The alleged letter of claim dated 7 January 2020 was served to a previous address which I moved out of in 2018, no effort was made to ascertain my correct address.  I have attached a copy of my tenancy agreement which is marked ‘Appendix 1’ and shows I was residing at a difference address as of 11 December 2018 and was therefore not at the service address at the time the proceedings were served.  I have also attached an email from my solicitors to the Claimants solicitors dated 14 July 2022 which was sent to them requesting that they disclose the trace of evidence they utilised prior to issuing the proceedings against me.  This is marked ‘Appendix 2’. The claimants solicitors did not provide me with these documents. 6. Under The Pre-Action Protocol for Debt Claims 2017 a Debt Buyer must undertake all reasonable enquiries to ensure the correct address of a debtor, this can be as simple as a credit file search. The Claimant failed to carry out such basic checks. Subsequently all letters prior to and including ,The Pre action Protocol letter of claim dated 7 January 2020 and the claim form dated 14th February 2020 were all served to a previous address which I moved out of in 2018. 7. Upon the discovery of the Judgement debt, I made immediate contact with the Court and the Claimant Solicitors, putting them on notice that I was making investigations in relation to the Judgement debt as it was not familiar to me.  I asked them to provide me with a copy of the original loan agreement but this was not provided to me.   The correspondence to the Claimant Solicitor's is attached and marked ‘Appendix 3’ 8. On (insert date) I successfully made application to set a side the judgment. The claim proceeded to allocation, 9. The claimant failed to comply with the additional directions ordered by District Judge Davis on the 2 February 2024 'The Claim shall be automatically struck out at 4pm on 3 April 2024 unless the Claimant delivers to the Court and to the Defendant the following documents.' None of these documents were received by the court nor the defendant by that date. (insert date you did receive the documents) I then sent a Data Subject Access Request to Barclays but no agreement was provided. Details the timeline of communication between myself and Barclays are attached and marked ‘Appendix 4’and the copies of correspondence between myself and Barclays are attached and marked ‘Appendix 5’. Remove irrelevant 10.The claimant relies upon and has exhibited a reconstituted version of the alleged agreement. It is again denied that I have ever entered into an agreement with Barclaycard on or around 2000.  It is admitted that I did hold other credit agreements with other creditors and as such should this be a debt that was assigned to Barclaycard from another brand therefore the reconstituted agreement disclosed is invalid being pre April 2007 and not legally enforceable pursuant to HHJ Judge Waksman in Carey v HSBC 2009 EWHC3417.  Details of this are attached and marked ‘Appendix 6’. The original credit agreement must be provided along with any reconstituted version on a modified credit agreement and must contain the names and address of debtor and creditor, agreement number and cancelation clause. 11. Therefore the claimant is put to strict proof to disclose a true executed legible agreement on which its claim relies upon and not mislead the court. 12. It is denied I have ever received a default Notice pursuant to sec 87(1) CCA1974.The claimant is put to strict proof to evidence from the original creditors internal document software the trigger of said notice.  13.   As per CPR 1.4(2)(a) the court encourages parties to cooperate with each other in the conduct of proceedings in order to try and save time and costs for the parties and to also save the time and resources of the court however, despite vast attempts at mediation the claimants have been most unreasonable and have remained unwilling to mediate. 14. Until such time the claimant can comply and disclose a true executed copy of the original assigned agreement they refer to within the particulars of this claim they are not entitled while the default continues, to enforce the agreement pursuant to section 78.6 (a) of the Credit Consumer Act 1974. I believe that the facts stated in this Witness Statement are true.  I understand that proceedings for contempt of court may be brought against anyone who makes, or causes to be made, a false statement in a document verified by a statement of truth without an honest belief in its truth.

    • 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.

I don’t know where to post this, mods / admin feel free to relocate.

 

Please bear with me, if this looks to long to read, there is a possibility my car may be written off following an accident, I don’t have the funds to purchase a 2nd hand car, yet I need a car as I work shifts, and have to travel 20 miles away from home, due to my shift pattern, public transport is not an option and my employer is not the “Caring kind”

 

I’m on a DMP with CCCS, my credit rating is zilch, so I’ve no idea what to do.

 

Without my car, I have no job, no job means no mortgage payments, no mortgage payments means no home, god, I’m so, so, stressed out with worry I could cry, I’ve suffered from nervous breakdown previously, I’m frightened to death of entering that road again.

 

After the initial few months agro with creditors, my DMP has now settled down and my creditors have left me alone, that last thing I need is my DMP to fail

 

At present I have a curtsey car whilst my car is awaiting a report on it.

 

In the event of me losing my car, I doubt there is much I can do, I’ll have to accept the consequences, but there are many knowledgeable members on here, I’m praying someone has a suggestion or can point me in the right direction towards a positive outcome.

 

Thank you for taking the time to read my post

Hi, yes this is the wrong place, but I have asked that this be moved to the insurance forum where knowledgable people will be able to help you.

Hi Lulu

 

It’s not so much an insurance issue I have, my problem is trying to get a car, given my credit rating and DMP status, that’s what I’m hoping someone can suggest / direct me.

 

Sorry I never made it clear in my mixed up post, I'm not thinking clearly.

Has liability been determined if there is another party?

Can your employer provide a sub (if suitable)?

Is there anyone who could give you a lift?

Cycle?

And when you say public transport is not an option do you mean you dont want to consider it or that its impossible to get to and from work by such?

 

If your car is repairable then you will get it back an should be able to keep the courtesy car until then. If it is a total loss then the insurer will provide money to replace it or sometimes (depending on insurer / age of car and value) replace the car themselves.

Thread moved to insurance forum. I think this is the most appropriate forum.

 

Sorry if this I am missing something here but if the car is written of then surely you can replace it with the payout from the insurance company?

Freaky, you're correct, I should get a payout from the insurance, you know what, my mind is all over the place, that hadn't even entered my head.

 

Sorry for any confusion.

No, I checked with the highways agency, and they are unable to trace where the debris came from.

Can your employer provide a sub (if suitable)?.

No, there not that kind of company, i.e, they don't give a ****e about there employees.

Is there anyone who could give you a lift?

Cycle?.

No, due to the times of my shift pattern.

And when you say public transport is not an option do you mean you dont want to consider it or that its impossible to get to and from work by such?.

It's impossible to get to work via public transport, the bus service only operates during office hours.

If your car is repairable then you will get it back an should be able to keep the courtesy car until then. If it is a total loss then the insurer will provide money to replace it or sometimes (depending on insurer / age of car and value) replace the car themselves.

My car is 7 years old so not worth much, this is where I'm getting stressed, I don't I'd be able to buy anything decent for around £1000, and due to my credit status / DMP status, I'm sure I'd have difficulty trying to get a car.

 

Thanks for your reply.

You would be amazed at what you can buy for £1000 at the moment.:)

 

You will definitely get something to get you to work and back.

 

Stole my thunder FL.

 

The car market is as dead as the housing market.Dealers are struggling & many families are having to offload second cars.

 

It's just the timescale where you may have problems and actually getting around to look for one.

 

Can you crash out at a work mates place for a while if necessary?

Do you know, I hadn't looked at it like that, that's made me feel slightly better, thanks.

Yes it is, if they write my car off, they will take away the free curtsey car, it's that time scale that's bothering me, thanks to you both for your words of support.

If it is written off purely for economical reasons (i.e - it would be OK to repair (safe) but would cost a lot) you could ask for a cash in lieu and maybe take it to a cheaper (but trustworthy) repairer who would.... provide a courtesy car whilst they repair yours! Ask your insurer.
