    • 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.

Quick question....

 

GREAT Thread and i am in identical situation as Cosalt was at start of this thread. I am about to send a modified version of same letter Cosalt sent, however i don't know whether i should send this to the DCA or to Egg? After the CCA request, Lowell were hounding me, but that changed recently and now its another DCA. i would have thought a statement of dispute over an unforceable agreement should go to the original creditor, not the DCA who generally know nothing and have no grounds to discuss that with the debtor.

Please could someone advise me as regards where best to send this letter?

Many thanks

Think they may mean a copy of a template letter. If so, something along this lines should suffice....including your personal details of course!!

 

Request under Section 77/78 of the Consumer Credit Act 1974

This letter is a formal request pursuant to section 77/78 of the Consumer Credit Act 1974. I require you to provide me with a true copy of the credit agreement relating to the above account, together with any other documentation the Act requires you to provide.

I expect you to comply fully and properly with this request, within the statutory time limit. You are reminded that should you fail to comply with my request, the provisions of section 77 will apply.

If it is your view that you are not the creditor, section 175 of the CCA 1974 applies in the case of a simple assignment, and places a duty upon you to pass this request to the creditor. In the case of an absolute assignment, you are a creditor as defined by section 189. If you contend that you purchased the rights but not the duties of any agreement, you are reminded that section 189 of the Act is clear that an assignment is of both rights and duties. Your attention is drawn to sections 5(2), 3(b), 6 and 7 of the Consumer Protection from Unfair Trading Regulations 2008 (CPUTR).

I enclose a postal order in the sum of £1.00, which is the statutory fee for this request. Please note these funds are not to be used for any other purpose.

If you are unable to comply fully and properly with this request, you should confirm this in writing at the earliest opportunity, and certainly within the statutory time limit for compliance, and return the fee.

Take further note that I do not want you to undertake communication with me regarding my account and any balances outstanding therein by telephone calls after the receipt of this request - to call may constitute a criminal offence under Section 127 of the Communications Act 2003.

Yes R&B I do!! :D

 

My CCA requests have either yielded nothing or useless information to date and NOT the copy of the original as opposed to true copy of the agreement.

 

I'm not claiming charges so haven't really needed my statements but it all depends on what you hope to achieve.

 

Easier if you start your own thread...contact the Site Team by clicking on the exclamation mark triangle on left hand side of post and they will be able to do this for you.

Hi all,

 

Just an update to my EGG CCA being audited by a group of Solicitors...

 

I called them this morning and they say it is still being audited and it does take time. This is too, i'm told, to ensure that every t is crossed and i is dotted. They have had it for over four weeks now, so i am hoping that they see some validity in its unenforcability??

 

I will keep you informed as this could help a lot of you guys with similar agreements.

 

S :D

Not directly - this is were I believe you are better doing this yourself.

 

I paid £99 to a 'company' to review these agreements and when I saw what they done, I could have done a better job. They got the CCA and forwarded it to a legal firm in Warrington. They have had this now for three-four weeks. They dont answer my emails and when I rang, they said it was with the Auditors.

 

problem is, I have stopped paying egg and they are now demanding money as they have supplied a signed CCA. I am holding them off until the solicitors come back to me.

 

I am very confident the egg cca is unenforcable due to the approved limit discussions above (it was dated 1999). Hopefully these Auditors agree (if they exist?)

I think these companies offer something they cannot give people-reassurance. An "official" and "authorative" viewpoint is what people want, and they can;t give it, because it needs a judge to make a decision on a particular case.

 

 

I would love to just give my agreement to someone who will do all of this for me, but I can't because it isn't the comapny that gets taken to court-it's me.

 

 

I doesn't sound right to me that they aren't getting back to you and are taking this long to come to you and say either it is enforceable or it isn't.

 

 

Demand an appointment, and don't be fobbed off-it's outrageous that you may now have to argue the toss with two companies.

Typical Egg agreement. It is unenforcable becasue it doesn't have the prescreibed terms. It should have a term telling you what your credit limit is. Instead you have an approved limit - whatever that is. That is meaningless and does not comply with teh Consumer Crdit Act 1974 and its associated regulations.

This is all a bit complicated but just like to ask a quick question. My egg card agreement is dated 21st Jan 2004. it also says " we will tell you from time to time the APPROVED LIMIT we have set you, and if different the individual limit which you have chosen for the account.

 

Does this mean this is agreement does not comply.

How do i respond i have used delay tactics by sending them money for a copy of the agreement. Which they have now done so my time is up. Moorcroft are dealing with this now. How do i write to them without slipping up somewhere they are so sneaky and clever. They only sent me a copy of my signature on the back page not the front pages which relates to the "Approved limit". Fortunately i still have the original.

 

Many thanks. And once this is resolved i will tell everyone i know about this site and naturally send a good donation.

Hi Powershower,

 

You made it! You have found the answer to one of your questions. You may want to start your own thread and post the whole thing up. Let me know if you need to know how to do this - it took me days to work it out. You'll also be able to find the letter to write to them on one of the egg threads.

 

This is such a brilliant site and you'll get loads of help here.

 

Love,

Daniella xxx

Hi Guys

 

Im just writing my dispute letter to egg, i have also got an audit through a solicter for £60 but also preparing my own case that way im still in control.

 

Some claim companies are better than others, some charge alot of money others do it cheaply so if you want to do an outside audit then shop around, and watch out for winning fees and percantage of write offs.

 

I know for a fact alot of cards are being taken on by solicters through these claim companies but they take along time due to the soliciters still forming arguements on how they can claim costs due to complexity in the cases and the use of the small claims courts, most dont get to court as the cards settle.

 

The cases are given to a solicters who does an audit if he belives he can win get a barrister opionion and takes on the case.

 

However they do not have much urgancy to push it through as they are looking at ways to reclaim costs. These are still a sticking piont.

 

If you do use a firm dont think weeks think months and months and set up a plan to keep egg off your back until you have your case heard.

 

If your in a rush then take your own action and do it yourself with lots of help form some very intellegent site members here.

 

cheers jame s

I have an Egg Loan and Egg credit card, both dating to 2002. I have been told there is a case for this to be looked into. Are there any obvious mistakes for the loans like the credit cards listed?

Hi k1mmie,

 

Re-reading this thread from beginning to end, to make sure I'm still up-to-date with everyones comments, and you took the words out of my mouth! Going to try and read some other threads and if I find out anything regarding the loan will come back.

Hi I havnt had much response lately but i did write letters to the other six debt recovery thugs that egg had involved i told them i would not respond to them that i would only reply to EGG directly i also said i wanted them to SToP telephoning me and making harrasing comments. So far no commets "peace" i am sure it will start again. However they are aware that i am not going to be bullied and i need them to respond to my complaints.

Another interesting site is the financial ombudsman site, i have also raised my EGG dispute with them. They are extremely professional. I will write back when i have more information. Best regards PS

That is enitrely your decision-it is now 8mths since I made a payment and 8mths since they received my letter about the approved limit issue as well as the interest rate and charges on default. They haven't responded to my letters, they placed the account with moorcroft ( who are actually quite easy to shoo off) they defaulted then terminated the account-all of which whilst the account was in dispute, they trashed my credit file ( this seems to be the hard one to deal with) but they still ignore my original letter.

 

 

On the other hand they haven't had any money from me. The fights still on.

We have two agreements, one with an approved limit, one terminated last year ( and approved limit !)

 

We have paid nothing for over 10 months, we have written several times stating what our dispute is, now we just receive a call ( ignored ) from ARC once in a while asking us to call them.

I stopped making Egg c/c payments since February this year, Moorcroft very easily accepted, ARC on the other hand like to call me at least once/twice every couple weeks.

 

Just sent off the A/c In Dispute letter for Egg Loan, withholding payment from this month... lets see what happens
