    • Thanks, I've had my fill of this lot. What makes me so mad is that I had to take out student loan to get any DHSS help. And then when I tried to help myself and family they presented obstacles. Might be worth passing story to RIP off Britain?
    • there is NO exposure if you simple remove your name address/ref numbers etc from docs, over 10'000 pdf uploads are here. which then harvests IP addresses off of the people that then do so..which is why we do not allow hosting sites. read our rules and upload carefully thats exactly why we say capture as JPG, redact, then convert/merge to one mass PDF. then online sites to achieve that we list do not leave watermarks.  every once in a while we have a user like you that thinks they know better...we've been doing it since 2006 with not one security issue. thank you.
    • was at the time you ticked it  but now they've still not complied . if you read up, here , you'll see thats what everyone does,  
    • no they never allow the age related get out, erudio are masters at faking supposed 'arrears' fees which were levied before said date and thus null its write off. 1000's of threads here on them!! scammers untied that lot. i can almost guarantee they'll state it's not SB'd too re above, but just ignore them once sent. dx

    • 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.

OK benji,

 

We need to put together a formal disputeb letter to sort out Freds, this I can do but need info:

 

1. Name of the card issuer.#

2. The DCAs that have chased it.

3. Have any allged ''agreements'' been supplied?

4. Default Date

5. Date of last payment.

6. Do Lowell show as owners of the debt on credit files.

Excuse my chipping in, Benji, I see you've heeded advice to respond to Fredrickson's threat and I respect your choice. However, I'm extremely concerned to see suggestions which may prompt DCAs to feel that by merely sticking LBA on a letter, CAG users can be drawn into letter tennis.

The letter quoted is the second of a standard chain of four.

Had you ignored it you would have received next another LBA, this time on Carter letterhead and finally a discount letter from Fred's. Then it goes back to the originator - Lowell in this case.

I present this info just for others viewing who may receive the same tripe. As I said, I am not attempting to deflect you Benji from your chosen path and I understand your position, so good luck to you. I am just averse to giving these dogs bones to enjoy.

Oleg. No one is giving any thing to Freds in this situation, it has become clear that these DCAs are becoming more and more litigious particulary Lowells who are involved here, your scenario is may occasionally occur but is not definite.

Lowells will take action themselves or get an assignee to do it for them.

Hi Everyone OH has a completely unenforceable debt orinally with a bank for CC, been though the hands of 14 different DCAs' and keeps getting passed on. For the last 2 years lowlife keep passing it around their tame underlings - now going round for second time.My question is should I bother to reply with prove it type letters and serious dispute go aways ( which costs me postage) or just ignore or report to OFT for harrassment?

Thank You

How do you know that it is totally unenforceable ?

 

I am assuming that it is now with Lowells, so you need to be aware that Lowells are issuing statutory demands like confetti at the present time . They do not seem at all concerned that many of them are being set aside.

Hi Benji,

 

When is this going to SB, as citizen B has said Lowell throwing SDs around on relatively small debt.

How much does it cost a company like Lowells to issue a SD?

 

Is there a cost in getting it set aside?

 

If it is set aside can one claim any compensation for it being issued in the first place?

A SD has no court fee attached to it, I could write one now and given that it contains all the relevant details it is legal.

There is a cost of £45.00 if a hearing is not required (uncontested set aside) or £80 .00 if a hearing is needed, fees are

paid up front.

Thank you Brig, I presume the fees are paid by the writer of the SD.

Do we have any stats on what percentage of contested SDs Lowells or any of the other scumbags continue to press to court?

The recipient of the SD pays for the set aside up front, the issue of a Stat demand may have cost for the claimant eg process servers fees.

 

The majority of the Lowell SDs we have seen on CAG have been successfully been challenged I have dealt with some recently elsewhere that have also been set aside.

So if this procedure costs the Debt owner nothing and automatically costs the debtor £45/£80 to contest why do all of them not do this it seems like a stick to beat all debtors with that costs nothing.

 

Seems extremely unfair that it cost them nothing but the debtor has to pay to defend. As I presume the debtor is in the smelly stuff if the SD is uncontested?
