    • If the legendary dx could offer his wisdom it would be greatly appreciated 
    • Hi there Manager for our soccer sixes team moved overseas mid season and we struggled for numbers so we told the ref about 5 weeks prior to seasons end that we would see out these games then be done and he told us he’d ’pass the message on to the relevant people’. Heard nothing, then 3 days prior to the new season beginning we were given our fixture for that weekend. Told the guy over text we had pulled out and the ref should’ve passed a message on but we were told sufficient notice wasn’t given and it needed to be in writing. I argued it’s not our fault the ref didn’t do as he said but we were countered by the T&Cs.    now being chased for what was £608 kindly reduced to £476 to pay off remainder of the season. Been sent a letter in the post from their accountancy team and told needs to be paid by Friday.   seen a lot of the other threads saying we can literally just ignore everything but im concerned about debt collections and credit score being harmed. Can anyone confirm if this all works/what we should do?   thanks
    • Hi,   I have given an official police witness statement for the prosecution in an upcoming criminal court case, and I am very anxious about what might happen.  Specifically regarding being cross-examined.  My statement is very short, and only a couple of paragraphs long, regarding a conversation I had with one of the victims.  I have tried to research online about what information about me the defence barrister might be able to find and use to discredit me.  I have by no means have a shady past but, I am concerned about what private information might be brought up, and as this is a case that will be in the national press as it is in the public interest.  The two preliminary hearings were reported in the papers.   I have tried to research  online what information the opposition can seek, but it is all very complicated.  I believe that they can legally access public records, but I'm not sure what information public records hold.  Can they access my medical records, educational history, HMRC, and Department for Work and Pensions? (I am a self employed sole trader).  I was arrested once, and this was unfortunately instigated by the victim in this case, so could well be of interest to them.  It resulted in no further action, however I have only discovered this week that that, in fact, this means I have a criminal record, and will be so until I am 100 (no chance)! This has really annoyed me to say the least, especially since I asked him afterwards why he rang the police and he said 'for a laugh'.  So I have started to look into applying for it to be deleted, but again, if anyone has any advice on this I would be appreciative. At the moment, my name isn't on the confirmed list to give evidence, but the detective I have been dealing with has said it is 'likely'. The names of the victims in this case will not be allowed to be reported, are witnesses fair game for the press? I really need no know how deep they can delve in to my life so I am prepared if my character gets assassinated in front of the nation. I really wish I'd never agreed to this.   Many thanks
    • A belated thanks dx. Yes I may take your advice regarding StepChange. I am finding that I am telling them (on behalf of my Son) the true balances outstanding? They never seem to check properly in which worries me. If I was to take on myself is there another way of dealing with various debts? I have already submitted other IRL complaints on his behalf. Today I have received a further response from Quidie T/A Fernovo confirming that they will waiver all interest paid.
    • Good evening  Case hearing this Friday 26/04. looking to have all my prep/papers ready.    just checking in to get update on my last post , ( the t&c’s attached). No name or address on them as per #49   thank you UCM

    • 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 have a credit card debt with MBNA Ireland which at present I am finding very difficult to pay due to been made redundant about a year ago and entering full time education to try and improve my status in life. I would like to repay this debt but MBNA been MBNA are a very ignorant bunch.

 

I have asked them could I send my payments to thier Chester Office and they have said no. Funny as they send my statments out from Chester with a Chester Return address. I have spoken to people in the past about my account in the chester call centre and they could access it. Now with this debt they never sent me a cca to sign I know this for a fact and in Ireland it is the same as the UK they need a cca to enforce the debt. Does anyone here think I should request the cca? They are making my life hell at present well I havent had a call from them since before xmas but I am sure next week they will start harissing me from thier Chester and Ireland offices again both offices are calling me it quite irrating.

 

Any advice?

I have found some interesting stuff tonight in the Irish Consumer Credit Act 1995 it gives the consumer even more power than in the UK

 

30.—(1) A credit agreement and any contract of guarantee relating thereto shall be made in writing and signed by the consumer and by or on behalf of all other parties to the agreement, and—

 

( a ) a copy of the agreement shall be—

 

(i) handed personally to the consumer upon the making of the agreement, or

 

(ii) delivered or sent to the consumer by the creditor within 10 days of the making of the agreement, and

 

( b ) in the case of any contract of guarantee relating to the agreement, a copy of the guarantee and the agreement shall be—

 

(i) handed personally to the guarantor upon the making of the contract, or

 

(ii) sent within 10 days of the making of any contract by the creditor to the guarantor.

 

(2) A credit agreement shall contain a statement in respect of the cooling-off period that the consumer—

 

( a ) has a right to withdraw from the agreement without penalty if the consumer gives written notice to this effect to the creditor within a period of 10 days of the date of receipt by the consumer of a copy of the agreement, or

 

( b ) may indicate that he does not wish to exercise this right by signing a statement to this effect, this signature to be separate from, and additional to, the consumer's signature in relation to any of the terms of the agreement.

 

(3) A credit agreement shall contain a statement of—

 

( a ) the names and addresses of all the parties to the agreement, and

 

( b ) any costs or penalties to which the consumer may become liable for any failure by the consumer to comply with the terms of the agreement.

 

(4) This section does not apply to credit in the form of advances on a current account, or on credit card accounts.

 

Hmm they never sent me a credit agreement to sign so looks like this will happen

38.—A creditor shall not be entitled to enforce a credit agreement or any contract of guarantee relating thereto, and no security given by the consumer in respect of money payable under the credit agreement or given by a guarantor in respect of money payable under such contract of guarantee as aforesaid shall be enforceable against the consumer or guarantor by any holder thereof, unless the requirements specified in this Part have been complied with:

 

Provided that if a court is satisfied in any action that a failure to comply with any of the aforesaid requirements, other than section 30, was not deliberate and has not prejudiced the consumer, and that it would be just and equitable to dispense with the requirement, the court may, subject to any conditions that it sees fit to impose, decide that the agreement shall be enforceable.

Bless MBNA's little black heart I think thats why they have been houding me and treating this that an the other no signed cca no money for mbna

 

the full act is here Irish Statute Book, Acts of the Oireachtas, Consumer Credit Act, 1995 I would appeciate any imput you guys can give anything to give MBNA a black eye

Ok I have been going around the MBNA merrygoround for a long time now. I sent mbna a cca request on 02 Jan by recorded delivery. They finally replied on the 27th of Jan. They had this to say for themselfs:

 

Thank you for your letter dated 2 January 2009.

 

Further to your request for a copy of your signed application please be aware that your application was taken by telephone on the 28 Aplil 2004. Therefore, there is no signed agreement from you. I have arranged for a copy of the terms and conditions of your account to be sent to you under

 

separate cover. .

 

I can confirm that the balance on the above account is ..... and the credit fucilityhas been withdrawn. Due to the level of delinquency your account has now reached it is due to be sold to a third party for collection. I would urge you to contact our Customer Assistance department on to discuss your repayment options, however, please be aware that once the accOlmt has been sold to a third party, MBNA will no longer be responsible for collection of the

 

balance. Customer Assistance department opening hours are Monday to Thursday0900amm2000pm and Friday 0900am - 1300pm

 

I regret any inconvenience that this matter has caused you. We have now exhausted our complaint process;therefore I must inform you that this is our final response on the matter. If you remain dissatisfiedwith the response, you may refer your complaint to the Financial Ombudsman Service, within 15 days of the date of this final response.

 

 

Am I right in thinking they dont have a leg to stand on? No signed CCA request can they enforce this or not? I am sending a complaint to the FSO by next day delivery on Monday.

I think the usual rules about CCAs would apply here, but try telling the MBNA that. If you had applied by telephone then there is even more of a case that they should have sent you something to sign and return to them than if you had filled in an application form.

 

Have you sent them the telephone harassment letter?

 

It might actually be better if they do sell it to a DCA. MBNA sold mine to Lowells who soon backed off when they realised there was absolutely no paperwork - not even an application form pretending to be a CCA.

 

MBNA seem to think they are above the law. They are not.

Which is probably why they are giving you so much harassment - knowing they haven't got a leg to stand on legally. MBNA seem to think they are totally above the law in this country but they are not!!! In the bad old days they even rang my neighbours because I would not answer the phone. My OH was sooooo horrible to them for doing that.

 

Keep fighting. It might be worth sending them another telephone harassment letter just to remind them. And if they do ring just tell them you will only communicate in writing with them.

If they had the paperwork they would issue a court claim - simple as that. The next time they ring tell them to take you to court. It sounds scary but if they have no agreement they will not succeed. And it will probably take the wind right out of their sails if you say 'OK, take me to court then'

I have just been speaking to a solicitor at the community legal advice line

she told me that there had been a ruling when no cca existed then the judge still ruled in favour of the bank saying the person took the money.

Does anyone know anything about this

this is very disturbing as dca's can now claim you owe them money without having a cca to show.

I also heard of a case where there was no cca because an unsolicited credit card had been sent to someone through the post, was used and then defaulted on. Went to court and the judge ruled that because the card was unsolicted, the card was a gift. Case thrown out! jed

It can happen. Might be referring to the Rankine case, a case where a card was presented, or any other. Who knows?

 

There are more things in heaven and earth, than are dreamt of in your philosophy.

 

The devil is in the detail though. The same circumstances may not apply to you.

 

 

Edit - oopse. others posted before me...

Credit agreements entered into on or after 06 April 2007 are subject to the Consumer Credit Act 2006, which does not require the creditor to produce the original executed agreement to enforce in court.

 

Credit agreements entered into prior to the introduction of CCA 2006 are subject to the CCA 1974, which does require production of the original agreement.

 

Rankine, the case that seems to make DCAs moist, is very different to the majority of situations seen on CAG, not least because the debtor was the claimant in the case.

I believe the creditor would still need to produce the signed agreement bearing the debtor's signature for enforcement post April 2007.
