    • thread title updated moved to overseas debt forum. sadly as they are outside any UK jurisdiction upon DCA rules which state in the UK they must not call employers, there not alot you can do to stop these scammers. make sure you totally make private ALL social media twitter/facebook/linked in etc etc as there no-way for them to findout where you work otherwise so you must have a leak somewhere. find it. your employer details arent even legally available to UK DCA's so how have they found it out to date???  simply write to the BANK informing them of your correct and current address ALWAYS!!. if you want to arrange payment or not TO THE BANK ONLY thats upto you. never ever ignore a Statutory Demand a Letter Of Claim a Court Claimform. if if if any of those ever happen. till then ignore and rewash. dx

    • Hello All,  I’m hoping someone can help me urgently here. Firstly, I’d like to say I have read multiple other threads and have some what an idea of what I should be doing, however my case might be slightly different so coming with my own questions here.    my situation is I lived in Dubai and had a credit card and a loan, loan with HSBC and credit card with Emirates (or the other way round), I lost my job and was forced to leave the country as I was staying in the country on my companies visa.    since coming back, after a few years 2 different debt collections agencies have been approaching me (one being IDRW and the other J&P). I’ve never answered IDRWW and they constantly chase me by calling and messaging me and my employer. My current company is ok with this as I explained the situation but I’m soon to be joining a new company who definitely won’t be ok with being messaged and called. I’m afraid to continue to ignore them as they may message and calm the new employer as they have before and I’ll lose my job. However, it seems clear from these forums that dealing with the debt collection agencies is never a good idea. You shouldn’t agree to the amount or pay anything.    j&p caught me on my phone but I still haven't sent them any money or confirmed the amount they’re saying is owed, they keep pushing to pay off the “principal” amount by making monthly payments, from reading these forums it seems like if I make one of those payments (they have provided bank details for ENBD), then it’ll just be paying off interest and not actually clearing the principle debt and the bank won’t even approve receipt of payment or that it’s coming off principle.    this is my predicament as ignoring them might not be an option if they chase my new employer. Maybe there’s a way to ensure the debt collection agency don’t contact my new employer?? I don’t know? Massively appreciate peoples help here. Thanks,

    • 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.

VG, do you have a psychiatrist at the moment, if so, ask him/her to provide a letter for you.

I did have, but was transfered to a NHS psychologist and received 5 years intensive psychotherapy threatment, which was confirmed within the letter supplied by my GP to the court.

Is it posible to get someone else as well as your GP to supply an official letter or to help you with this matter VG?

I'll contact my ex psychologist tomorrow.

 

As previously mentioned your MP would be the ideal person.

I've tried my MP re an issue I had about Moorcroft harassing me, i got the feeling he was not really intrested (You've had the money impression)

 

I went back when a CO was being applied for, and agian his attitude didn't really change, like I mentioned above, he didn't even know what a CO was.

Your MP is there for one reason only and that isn't for his/her benefit, it's for yours. Can you get someone to help you with this as MPs are very good at getting things done ;) With a little help...

OK, I'll concentrate on the appeal first as that must be in by this friday, I'll deal with the MP issue after that

Can you not appeal under the Disability Discrimination Act? You tried to tell the judge your position with regards to your illness, he dismisses it without even hearing you out?! Mental Health is covered under this act, including depression; if its severe enough to have an inpact on someones daily rountines then its likely to be covered.

The fact he dismisses you and proceeds with treating you as someone without an illness that may affect judgement is outrages and definately needs pursuing!

It doesn't efect me severly as I'm on daily medication, but i do have off days, if that makes sense.

 

But without that medication it would? I would seek the opinion of your doctor/psychiatrist or take a look at the Equality and Human Rights web site and see if they are of the opinion you would be covered by the act.

 

'The court must consider whether it is reasonable to make a charging order. Under The Charging Orders Act 1979 the court has to consider all the circumstances of the case and in particular:

  • The personal circumstances of "the debtor"
  • Whether any creditor would be "unduly prejudiced". This means the court has to decide if making a charging order would disadvantage other creditors.'

By dismissing your personnal circumstances he didn't abide to the first one did he.

 

If someone who is more knowledgable in this area could comment, it could help OP a great deal.

I know we've discussed this before VG, and I don't think I can add anymore. I think that the whole circumstances of this (including the fact that payplan (?) acted for you and handled the original claim) means that the judge may be unsympathetic.

 

Right or wrong I think they will look at it from a point of view that you did take the money and do owe it. You therefore need to surmount the initial admission, the fact that you were being represented and then argue the DN. I tnink that each one of these will be challenging.

 

Remember that an order for sale is very unlikely.

I don't deny that, what is in question is, has the claimant the right to bring a case against me?

 

I breached my agreement by not maintaining the agreed payment, so, they have a right to bring a claim, I don't deny them that right.

 

However, they've breached legislation laid down by parliment in bringing this claim, by not adhearing to legislation when issuing a defeault notice, and terminating my agreement before the offical date, I therefore have a right to question there actions.

agreed, but as you have seen many DJ's don't necessarily look at it that way. I sometimes think that they like to look at the big picture and look at who is the worst 'offender' in their view and rule accordingly.

 

There is a legal principle that reads - de minimis non curat lex - the law does not concern itself with trifles* and I feel that many of the DJ's looking at these type of issues take this to heart.

 

Whether they should or not is another debate, but I think that you need to focus on what might happen as opposed to what should happen, especially before investing too much money or time. The advice you received on your other thread was decent.

You need a doctor to be able to say that you could have signed the form admitting the debt without realising the consequences.

 

Also hope you don't mind me saying it but from what you say I suspect you have Bipolar disorder which would explain your behaviour re the N1.

 

This condition is so often mis-diagnosed so may I suggest you speak to your GP again

Hi Jon

Also hope you don't mind me saying it but from what you say I suspect you have Bipolar disorder which would explain your behaviour re the N1.

I'm not offended at all, believe it or not, it's taken me 20+ years to get to the stage where I'm at now, partially due to being messed around (if that's the right word) within the health service.

 

I'm not going to state openly the issues / difficulties I've experienced, but if the judge was aware of my full psychological history, it would go some way to explain why I reacted the way I did, this is difficulty to put into words.

 

Please, please, please, it's very important for anyone reading / contributed to this thread to understand I'm in no way after sympathy / attention, that's not what this is about.

 

As regards to your comment re Bipolar, I've heard of it, but no idea what it is.

I still think it's worth speaking to your MP. Have you got someone who could go with you?

Baby, when I spoke to my MP about this CO before, he said he cannot become involved in court proceedings, however, I will call his secretary tomorrow and see if I can make any progress.

It's pretty strong to suggest someone has Bipolar Disorder when you know nothing about them or their medical history and I don't see a description of "off days" as suggesting anything like Bipolar Disorder. I think the medical diagnosis is best left to his GP and specialist, if he is referred to one.
