    • There's a thread somewhere about someone sending the baillifs against Wizzair that is quite hilarious. I would love to see someone do the same to Ryanair. Question is, should you be the one to take that role. You are entitled to the £220, if your flight was from the UK. If it was TO the UK I suppose it is more of a grey area... though the airlines I know have been using £220 as standard. Not that surprising for Ryanair, the worst cheapskates in the universe, to go for the lower amount, and if you forward this to the CEO he will probably have a jolly good laugh and give his accountants a verbal bonus. After all he's the one who said and I paraphrase "F*** our customers, they'll fly with us again anyway". While we would all love to see Ryanair get wooped in court again, I have to join my fellow posters in thinking it's not worth the hassle for (hypothetically) £7 and not sure it will expedite the payment either. It's already an achievement that you got them to accept to pay.

    • 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 had a Marbles card for a few years and, although I still owe about 6k on it, since I got into financial trouble a couple of years ago I haven't used the card once but have continued to make regular payments on it.

 

I pay twice the minimum amount each month but of the payments I make about half of the amount is interest so if I pay say £300.00 I lose £150.00 due to interest.

 

I'm not very good at understanding APR but in this letter it seems that it has gone to 32.9% which I'm sure isn't good.

 

I expect they have checked my credit file and found that I have three cards that I did default on and think I will default on this one too.

 

I can't move the balance to another provider obviously so am I now going to be paying this account back forever as with a raised interest rate I will be swimming against the tide.

 

Any suggestions?

If you already have a few defaults on your credit file, then send them a CCA request. I've yet to see a Marbles card with an enforceable agreement. So nothing to lose really. Apart from £4k and any kind of friendship/"help" from Marbles that is. :rolleyes:

They should have frozen the interest when you got into difficulties. M&S did with me and suddenly out of the blue they have charged me interest which has totally wiped out all the goodwill payments I have made in the last two years. Fools.

Thanks for your replies, Fuzzybobble,you make me die:D

It's so annoying that the few debts that haven't gone to DCA's I've been paying over the required amount to get them cleared once and for all.

 

The DCA's will have to wait though.

 

I received a new agreement that looks as though it contains everything it should so I won't be posting that back,thanks for that bit of advice PGH.

I'm really not scared about taking on Marbles as I am completely up to date with my payments so I will CCA them and let you see what they send.

Actually they stopped calling me a few days ago, but after 5 previous outings with me, I think they may have noticed something's not quite right. :rolleyes::p

Only one's here about to die are Aviemore, as they don't have a CCA. Just some random terms and conditions that could apply to Prince Charles or his waste of space ginger son.

 

Welcome to the unenforceable CCA club WestEndWendy. :D (I have a time machine and can predict the future.) ;)

I do have a good feeling about this one,I know Marbles aren't too clever with CCa's but wasn't sure about the stuff Aviemore had sent.

 

Mind, being as I don't intend signing it I think they may be stuffed.

 

I'll be good though:rolleyes:,I'll send them the minimum amount on my next statement while I'm waiting for a reply to my CCA request,see what comes and then it may be on to Plan B.

 

If they hadn't done this I would have quite willingly carried on clearing this debt but,as it's Christmas I may just have a bit of fun.

 

Who fancies a game of Marbles - behind the 8 ball.:D

I find it amazing that the DCAs put pressure on people who are paying which then causes them to look for more information and stop paying because they find the debt is unenforceable. It got me out of a big mess and many others as well. Are these people totally thick?

OK, this is getting silly now!!

 

I sent a CCA request to Marbles way back in December but have received no reply,not even an acknowledgement of my letter.

I must admit I've let this lie since they transferred to Aviemore and did pay the minimum amount last month, but paid it directly to Marbles against my old account number.

 

Anyway, today I've received my latest statement only to find that firstly they haven't cancelled the ppi payments as I'd requested and secondly,I now owe £26.45 more than I did last month.----------AArgh.

 

So, what do I do now? CCA Aviemore and hope I get a response this time or send the account in dispute letter.

 

Looking at the estimated interest for next month plus the ppi thathasn't been cancelled my next pyment will raise the balance by around £28.00 again so instead of clearing the debt slowly it looks as though it will be rising again.

I've finally received a reply from Marbles/Aviemore,first they're saying that they can't provide the agreement and in the next breath they say that they aren't obliged to - what sense does that make?

 

Any idea of the three things that they aren't obliged to supply?

 

They enclosed a copy of their current T&Cs but I don't think that's what I want.

 

I've been paying the minimum amount on this account for ages but am just about paying off the interest so I'll be in debt until I'm pushing up the daisies,any advice would be welcome.

looks like they are missing the all important bit that has your signature on it. If they had it they would have sent it. They've had long enough to provide it too.

 

Welcome to the unenforceable CCA club. :D

 

Best to send them the account in dispute letter and put the money you were paying them towards more useful things.

Thanks for your reply fuzyybobble.

I knew that Aviemore wouldn't have anything as when Marbles transferred the account to them they did send me out a new agreement and card with a different account number.I didn't sign the new agreement b ut I did expect a letter to say they were going to retrieve the original from Marbles,which they haven't done.

 

Would I still be safe sending the 'Account in Dispute' to them now as I don't want to do the wrong thing?

Yep, no reason why you shouldn't send the account in dispute letter to them now. :D

Wendy - this is where you will have to be mindful that they Marbles may default you. There are effectively two options that you may go down..... let me explain why

 

The agreement provided is reconstructed which is allowed under the SI 1983/1553 and is also compliant however you don’t know if this is a true copy of the agreement you signed and is the typical way that creditors try to stonewall you, if the agreement is a few years old its likely they don’t have a copy on file, in fact their letter almost admits this

 

Technically they haven’t complied with the requirement and you could put the account in dispute this could result in a default, potential legal proceeding and/or the account being sold to a debt collection agency without really knowing where you stand as they may have an executed legally binding agreement tucked away on file.

 

Or…

 

You could take the longer view to get the copy agreement and know for sure where you stand by using the Data Protection Act to get a copy under a Subject Access Request, This takes 40 calendar days costs £10 and will provide every bit of data they hold on you ( Use the Subject Access Request Letter)

 

Should they provide a copy of the signed document and it’s the same as the reconstructed copy then they have a legally enforceable agreement, however if they don’t you are in a very strong position as they have sent you a document that’s legally binding under CCA1974 s.172 which is not a true copy of the signed agreement and therefore a severe breech of the CCA and will put you in a strong position in getting the debt written of or a reduced full and final settlement.

I haven't paid the last payment due and have been waiting for Marbles to contact me,sure enough,they did yesterday - seven calls to my home phone and four to my mobile and they phoned my office number for the first time today.

 

I'll wait for the letter to come and then send the 'Account in Dispute' letter.

 

All still with Marbles at the moment.

 

they returned to marbles/halifax now in the hands of capquest who will be getting a CCa tomora

 

If you have already CCA'd RobinsonWay there's no need to send another pound to Capquest,just send the 'Account' in Dispute' letter.Capquest shouldn't be chasing you if you tell them that the account is in dispute with RW.
