    • This is my slightly amended WS taking on board your previous comments, any suggestions for amendments would be most appreciated.  Thank you for you time.   1.        I am the Defendant in this matter. 2.        The facts in this statement come from my personal knowledge. 3.        I became aware of original Judgement following a routine credit check on or around 14th September 2020. 4.        The alleged Letter of Claim dated 7 January 2020 was served to a previous address which I moved out of in 2018, no effort was made to ascertain my correct address. 5.        The Judgement debt was not familiar to me so I began investigations to ascertain what the debt related to and how such a figure had been equated in any event. 6.        I made immediate contact with the Court, the Claimant Solicitors and the Claimants thereafter, asking them to provide me with a copy of the original loan agreement but this was not provided to me.  7.        I sent a Data Subject access Request to Barclays but no agreement was provided – See appendix 1 which details the timeline of communication between myself and Barclaycard as well as copies of correspondence between us. 8.        I do not admit to entering an agreement with Barclaycard in 2000. 9.       The claimant has failed to comply with the additional directions ordered by District Judge Davis and therefore this claim should be automatically struck out.  10.    The claimants have failed to disclose a true executed copy of the original agreement they refer to within the particulars of this claim. They are not entitled to enforce the agreement pursuant to section 78.6 (a) of the Credit Consumer Act 1974 12.   The reconstituted standard Barclaycard agreement that the claimant has included in the court bundle does not satisfy any CCA request and so the claimant is and remains in default of my CCA request and therefore unable to enforce the alleged agreement. 13.  The claimants have failed to provide proof the assignment, such as a deed of assignment. 14.  The claimant has failed to provide a statement of account setting out how the alleged debt accrued under that agreement 15.   Despite numerous requests to the claimant, I have still not seen any evidence, such as an original agreement or deed of assignment, that substantiates the claimant’s assertion that I owe the debt to the claimant, nor evidence of how the debt was accrued. 16.   As per CPR 1.4(2)(a) the court encourages parties to cooperate with each other in the conduct of proceedings in order to try and save time and costs for the parties and to also save the time and resources of the court however, despite vast attempts at mediation the claimants have been most unreasonable and have remained unwilling to mediate. I believe that the facts stated in this Witness Statement are true.  I understand that proceedings for contempt of court may be brought against anyone who makes, or causes to be made, a false statement in a document verified by a statement of truth without an honest belief in its truth.
    • A set aside application costs £275 which is more than the judgement so not worth it. Not that they would grant a set aside anyway.  Set asides are granted, for example, to people who moved and didn't get the court papers, so have a genuine reason for not defending.  Forgetting doesn't count. Your only choices are to pay up within 30 days, or defy the court and not pay.  If the latter, we've never seen a PPC enforce judgement for a single ticket, ever, you would get away without paying - but you would have a CCJ and a knackered credit file for six years.

    • 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.

Well I've sent off my LBA this week to Crap1, they basically sent me a template letter back last week stating you applied online for PPI... I said prove it, I've not seen anything to substantiate that. Also the t&c state an insurance certificate would be sent to me on joining the PPI, I didnt get it in my SAR, can they please supply it to ensure I did in fact apply for PPI.

 

Only problem is I cant afford the court fee at present, the amount to reclaim is so large its a £75 court fee :mad:

PmW

 

Have you checked to see if your entitled to free court fees?

Oh dear... Ellie seems a little confused today... Recevied fob off letter last week re: PPI and charges which was a template "you took out PPI, so tough" letter, no mention of charges.

 

So.. sent of an LBA with a sheet of PPI & charges also mentioning my outstanding CPR request and then in response I get a letter saying they have already sent me my s78 response and note my reference to CPR. Also they will not be sending me a cheque for £1250 as I requested:confused::confused::confused::confused: (Never have) and thats their final response.

 

Not even an offer of the difference in charges?? I feel swizzled:cry:

 

Time to start working on the POC methinks and add up all the interest/charges.

Hi pw thanks for that, I'll be subing your thread..

Re your PPI - I've been doing a little looking round and it appears that some people are asking CC companies if when they applied Online was the PPI and OPT-IN or OPT-OUT sinario ( " OPT-OUT is a slap on the rist " credit card companies were slated for this in 2007 by the FSO, I think ), and along with weren't sending an insurance certificate ....

 

Don't know if the above helps you at all...

 

Regarding your financial situation - have you considered passing your case to the FSO ( as it's free ) and it's been published lately the FSO have been successful in claiming back 90ish % of cases for PPI...

 

Also out of interest - what was the consensus regarding your Credit Agreement ? enforcable ?

 

Cheers and again good luck

Ok first off.. yes I've had an identity crisis :)

 

Right.. I've had a reasonable reply from EllieTowers with an ex-gratia offer towards my PPI+Charges claim, I asked for over 2k and they offered approx £500.

 

Below is the letter I'm going to send.. if anybody spots any glaring errors or better suggestions please dont hesitate to correct me:D

 

 

Capital One Bank

PO Box 5283

Nottingham

NG2 3YG

LETTER BEFORE ACTION

 

Dear Sir/Madam,

 

Your Ref : Account number: XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX

 

Thank you for your letter dated xx April. I’m afraid I must reject your offer of an ex gratia payment in full settlement and can only accept this amount if it is a partial settlement towards my claim.

 

As stated in my letter dated xx March I require the amount of £xxx credited to my account or else legal action will take place in the county court to recover these monies. I would also like to point out that if court action is required then the following will occur:-

 

 

  • I will claim £xx for unfair charges
  • I will claim £xx for PPI payments
  • I will claim £xx for contractual interest on the sums above in restitution at your current purchase rate of %apr
  • I will ask the court for disclosure of the original agreement and produce evidence of pre-action protocol requests that have been ignored or at best not-adhered to.
  • I will seek a ruling on the enforceability of the agreement under s.142 (1) (b) of the CCA1974.

 

This is the last letter I am prepared to write on this matter and unless the amount specified above is not credited to my account [as soon as funds are available/or DATE????] the claim will be put into the county court.

 

Yours faithfully,

They told me mine was sold over the phone when I called to activate my 1st card. Yeah, right-o :rolleyes:

 

just I was told not to claim them both together. theyve got to be seperate claims!!:confused:

 

I claimed PPI and charges together and they paid up!

I may have "tailored" your POC for this one (hope you dont mind), I'm still tweaking but will post up prior to sending in if you could possibly give it a once over.

Ok, the premise of this post is.......I got fed up with Crapone when they asked for an extension to file a defence so thought I'd take up the time waiting by getting them to stop processing my data.

 

Firstly I wrote to their legal team asking them to cease as per quoted bits, I was a bit naughty in referring to the OFT debt collection guidelines as the account isnt in default yet! so these dont apply currently:

 

As the defence will now be filed later than normal and this case will obviously run longer than originally anticipated I Require Capital One to undertake the following actions in accordance with the quoted Acts that Capital One is a signee to:-

1) Cease reporting the status of this account as behind on payments to all Credit Reference Agencies as per the Banking Code which states

“13.6 We may give information to Credit Reference Agencies about the personal debts you owe us if: the amount owned is not being disputed

2) Cease Collection activities on this account, which includes the phoning of my WORK mobile by the call centre operatives twice daily every day. This request is as per the OFT debt collection guidance which state

“2.6 Examples of unfair practices are as follows: h) Ignoring and/or disregarding claims that debts have been settled or are disputed and continuing to make unjustified demands for payment”

“2.7 Examples of unfair practices are as follows: k) Not ceasing collection activity while investigating a reasonably queried or disputed debt

As Capital One is a signee of the Acts mentioned above I expect them to conform and to carry out my requests forthwith. Failure to adhere to these requests I’m sure will reflect on Capital One during the course of this court case and complaints to the relevant bodies will also be made.

 

 

Well that did nothing so thought about using the fact that codes of practice are binding under CPUTR2008, so sent them this:-

 

 

I am writing to make a formal complaint that your organisation is in serious breach of the Banking Code and as such are in breach of Consumer Protection from Unfair Trading Regulations 2008, specifically Regulation 5 which states:-

5.—(1) A commercial practice is a misleading action if it satisfies the conditions in either

paragraph (2) or paragraph (3).

(3) A commercial practice satisfies the conditions of this paragraph if—

(a) it concerns any marketing of a product (including comparative advertising) which creates

confusion with any products, trade marks, trade names or other distinguishing marks of a

competitor; or

(b) it concerns any failure by a trader to comply with a commitment contained in a code of

conduct which the trader has undertaken to comply with, if—

(i) the trader indicates in a commercial practice that he is bound by that code of

conduct

The Banking Code that you are a signee of clearly states you must cease reporting the status of this account as behind on payments to all Credit Reference Agencies where the amount is disputed, I quote:

“13.6 We may give information to Credit Reference Agencies about the personal debts you owe us if: the amount owned is not being disputed

Quite clearly there is a dispute on the balance of the account as witnessed by myself starting this court case and asking for a Judge to adjudicate on the matter. To claim there is no dispute when court action has been instigated would be ridiculous and I am sure frowned upon by the OFT and the Courts. A dispute is defined as “a disagreement or argument about something important”, clearly this is what’s happening.

 

 

So now I just have to sit back and wait again :-(

Right after a pig of a day (work nightmare, wife laid off, barclaycard's solicitors harassing me and me finding out I have a panic mode thats easy to find :-()

 

I finally got Crap1's defense... basically they'll pay the full amount of PPI and charges back plus stat interest plus fees.

 

I'm countering with asking for the bad credit markers as it breaches the banking code and therefore enforceable under CPUTR2008 and also that they apply the money against the balance after clearing the arrears first.

 

Have warned them I'm quite prepared to cite Sempra metals for claiming compound interest and I would request disclosure of documents that I know they dont have. Unless order after they cant provide them :-D

 

One good bit of news for everyone is 2004 agreements are definately scanned images and they only have the front page of the original doc, they confirmed in the defence statement that the CCA supplied as part of the defence doc is the scanned front page of said document.

 

Will see what they come back with to my offer.

 

Hope everyone has had better days than me.

Gosh that was quick :-)

 

Crapone have agreed to my terms,

 

Could have gone to court for the contractual or just before but I think this is a fair result for both parties.

 

Just got to sort out confirming compliance and then the discontinuance.

Cheers Gary,

 

the POC's I put together from Alphageeks vs Capital one and Noomil vs Barclaysharks threads. I dont mind posting them but it'll be after I file discontinuance.

 

a caveat to using them is the fact they had to request a further 30 days from the judge to file a defence as they "claimed" they needed to find documents.
