    • god they've got at you haven't they. told you all the usual utter BS. a CCJ vanishes from your credit file on it's 6th B'Day regardless to being paid off or not or paying or not. same with any debt with a registered defaulted date - it vanishes from your file on the DN's 6th B'day regardless. creditfix are Knightsbridge, (they renamed) there are 100's of threads here on Knightsbridge, if i remember rightly 2 of the directors of a certain very big IVA provider were struck off for embezzling £1m's out of debtors. pers i'd stop paying now.  end of . just ignore them all. 99% of your debts are to utterly powerless DCA's and probably were never owed in the first place only goes to firm up my belief from post one..you got had blind. its very easy to deal with the debts even those with CCJ's. can you copy and paste what you credit file says regarding the IVA please?

    • Sorry I meant credit fix - I really wish I'd known this before - kicking myself right now  If they come back to me asking for more money I'll cancel it and start trying to deal with the debt myself let's see what they say  Feeling tempted to cancel it now but scared that some of the debts will do more CCJ's on me and I'll have to wait 6 years again.  2 of the CCJ come of this year and then I'll only have the iva in credit file - effectively if I'd have not took out the iva in 2021 I'd have clear score by now - but then again would I because I would have been hounded the last 3 years, as bad as it is it's saves me lots of headaches whilst my debt was still within the 6 year mark.  I think most of them are near there but in all honesty no point chasing them if I do cancel iva I'd jjst wait for the ones who contact me and then start the relevant letter process on them.  Of over 6 years easy if not still possible to write off. My true victory would be having the iva wiped off my credit file as mis sold or something that way I Don't have to wait till 2027 Other option is to fight back and ask for them to offer the creditors to accept payments so far and use the following method    Will your IVA firm agree to complete your IVA on the basic of funds paid to date? The Guidance lists a lot of factors to be considered in deciding whether a settlement on the basis of funds paid to date should be proposed. You should read the list. But that may not give you any feel for whether they apply to you or not. The following are my thoughts on when an IVA should be treated as settled, not failed. They assume that you have £75 or less to pay a month: if you would currently qualify for a Debt Relief Order, then your IVA should be settled now  There is no point in making your IVA fail and you have to apply for a DRO – it will not generate another penny for your creditors. If you are renting and owe less than £50,000, check the DRO criteria now and talk to National Debtline on 0808 808 4000 about whether you qualify. You may have been told at the start of your IVA that you aren’t eligible – still check now as the DRO criteria have changed, your situation has got worse, and some people were given incorrect information about DROs at the start. if you have no assets that would be realised in bankruptcy (eg a house with equity, car worth over £2000), then your IVA should be settled now Same as (1), there is no point in making you apply for bankruptcy after your IVA fails. if your only asset is a car that is worth less than £8000, then your IVA should be settled now A car that is worth say £5000 would normally be sold in bankruptcy and you would be given a small amount to buy a cheaper car. But your creditors would not get any benefit from this as the Insolvency Service takes the first £8000 raised to cover its own costs. if you have significant assets, the closer you are to the end of the IVA, the less reasonable it is to fail it If you have been paying your IVA for 4 years, you have done your best over a long period. It isn’t your fault you can no longer continue. The fact you may have had equity to release isn’t relevant as that simply isn’t going to be possible. if your situation will clearly improve soon, then it’s unlikely your IVA will be settled I mean real improvements, not hoping that prices fall. If I can get them to accept payment to date or threaten with cancellation hopefully they may accept it -  Other option is to try and borrow money and pay make a full and final offer  Or I can just ignore and hope for the best which I'm very tempted to do especially if they respond to my review with bullying tactics despite me being skint as a fart with no mortgage as renting  It's so stressful but I've just checked the iva agreement from 2021 and it's Cabot 2 accounts Lowell about 5 accounts and then lots of repeats of the same debt with for example zopa and Cabot same amount listed twice -  also loyyds banks but I'm sure that's older than 6 years and not on credit file anyway  If I can somehow remove the iva from my credit file I'd be happy

    • 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've received a letter from a DCA titled Notice of Collection Visit. It says someone will visit, not may, but will.

 

Bit of background info.

 

OC have a CCJ against me, they tried to get a charging order but failed on account of the fact I live in a rented house. The judge ordered that I continue with the small monthly payments I was making. This I have done without fail. Without any NOA a DCA wrote saying I had missed payments, I phoned them to say I was still paying OC as instructed by the court, I said I wouldn't deal with them until debt was legally assigned to them. I also told them on no circumstances to send a doorstep collector.

 

Assuming someone does turn up what would be the best way to handle the situation and cause the DCA the most pain.

 

Thanks

If it's the subject of a CCJ, then no ****** self-important DCA can make you pay anymoreI think you are correct in refusing to deal with them. I would also send a stiff letter of complaint to the O.C. and contact T.S. the O.C. is acting in breach of the OFT guidelines. it's not the DCA's fault as they will be the normal ignorant walloper with not a brain cell between them

Send the letter mentioned by rooster.

 

IF they turn up you don't have to open the door but if you do open the door tell them to s0d off, there is absolutely nothing they can do about it, they have absolutely NO powers at all. Do not get into any kind of discussion with them, give them 5 seconds (or 10 seconds if you have a particularly long driveway) to get off your property otherwise you will call the police (local number not 999) to report a breach of the peace.

Tesco obtained a CCJ against me about 2 yrs ago. I was ordered to pay £7/mth. A month ago they sent a statement with the balance of the loan at nil, it had previously been about £11K, I am assuming they are going to sell the debt. My question is, what happens about the CCJ considering the account balance is now nil.

 

Hope that makes sense.

 

Thanks

The CCJ will still be valid until the debt is repaid.

 

Unfortunately, if it had crossed your mind that you didn't have to pay any more (which I'm sure it hasn't); then it would give Tesco a very good reason to go for a possible Charging Order (if you own a property that is).

 

Bloomin' 'eck, I'm sounding like a DCA here.....full of "if's" !!! :eek:

What if you own a property but there is no equity plus your mortgage is up to date - can a creditor force a charging order on you then?

I’ve been paying a CCJ off at £7/mth, 2 mths ago I received a statement from the creditor saying the balance was nil, I know I still owe about £11K and assumed the account was to be sold. I didn’t cancel the SO I’d been paying and the next payment went out. Today I received a letter from my bank saying the £7 had been re-credited to my account because the receiving account was closed. I’ve heard nothing from the original creditor or any buyer. Any ideas what’s going on? should I cancel the SO? Is this some kind of wicked DCA plot?

Thanks

Make sure that you keep the letter from your bank safe, should they make any claims that you haven't paid, you will have proof that you did and the error was at their end.

 

I would suggest that you write a letter qrequesting clarification of the status of the account from the company you have been paying.

I had a CCJ registered against me in 2008, after receiving papers from Northampton and admitting the debt. I can't find any paperwork for it now. The creditor then applied for a charging order which I successfully defended in my local court, I won on account of living in rented accomodation. I can't find any paperwork for that either.

 

I'm really annoyed with myself because I'm usually very organised with paperwork.

 

Would it be possible for me to get copies of the paperwork from the courts? how would I go about it, as I don't have any case numbers etc?

I received a ccj on a cc debt 6 years ago.

 

 

I made the small payments that the judge ordered,

then after a few months they took me to court again to try and get a charging order on the house.

 

 

Trouble was I was living in rented accommodation.

 

 

After a few more months they sent me a statement saying the account was closed.

 

 

The direct debit was still in place but it was returned to my account.

 

 

I sent them a letter asking what was the status of the account, they ignored this.

The next DD was returned so I cancelled the DD,

I haven’t heard anything from anyone re this account in the past 5 years.

 

Could anyone shed any light on whether they can resurrect this ccj’d account

even though there has been no activity for the last 5 years

and they have said the account is closed with a nil balance.

 

 

I ask this because I may soon have a financial interest in a house

and I don’t want to get a charging order on it.

 

many thanks

The original debt was a personal loan (not a CC) with Tesco finance, it was Tesco who took me to court both times. There was still over £10K owing.

 

The CCJ was in September '08, they tried for the charging order about 2 months later.

 

I received a statement showing the balance as nil and the account closed in November '09. The last DD payment was October '09.

Do you regularly check your credit reference files? If so does this debt show on them.

It seems to me that this account may well have been sold on.

I’ve looked on noodle and this account is there, showing the lender as Tesco, no other names appear.

 

It shows a defaulted date of 30/10/09. It appears that Tesco have defaulted the account then closed it 3 days later.

 

I still need advice whether someone can reactivate the old ccj.

 

Thanks
