    • This is what I have said in my email of complaint:   On 29th November 2023 I took out a loan of £5000 with you. Unfortunately very early into 2024 I have found myself in financial difficulty and I contacted you on 13th February 2024 asking if there was any way I could extend the length of my loan to 36 months and I fully explained why I was requesting this and asked for your help. I again contacted you on 7th March 2024 to advise you of a change in my circumstances which resulted in me having to take out a DMP and asking you to confirm that the direct debit had been cancelled. You would have also received confirmation of this DMP from StepChange but you did not acknowledge receipt of my email.  I have now therefore fallen behind on several of my debts, yours included, and as a result you have lodged a Cifas marker against my name for "evasion of payment", which has resulted in me having to change banks, which has been an extremely difficult process because of the Cifas marker. I do not feel you have been fair or given me the opportunity to fully explain my situation to you before you lodged the marker against my name.  I cannot stress to you enough how much this has affected my mental health. I am having trouble sleeping and my existing health condition has been exacerbated by all of this.  What I would like you to do is to please remove the Cifas marker and let me make arrangements to pay the loan back through a DMP. If you fail to resolve my complaint within 8 weeks, or if matters are not settled to my satisfaction, I will have no alternative but to refer my complaint to the Financial Ombudsman Service. I look forward to hearing from you. Yours faithfully, Should I send something along those lines to the CEO? 
    • Right... Misuse of Facility is a Cat 6 and is considered the worst out of all of the CIFAS Categories for CIFAS Markers.  However lets see what happens when MCB come back to you. Make sure you refer it to the CEO.    IF YOU DONT HAVE A VALID REASON FOR THE ISSUE WITH PAYMENTS ETC - Then the marker will stay.   
    • That "oh dear" doesn't sound good  
    • Oh dear.. Misuse of facility...  Cat 6... No wonder everything is being nuked from high orbit... More in a bit.. 
    • Thank you fkofilee First question: what do I do if Monzo close my account? I need an account but no one will touch me with this marker against me. Is there anywhere/any other option that I have if Monzo close my account? MCB is My Community Bank?  Yes What Category of Marker do you have? This is what it says on the Cifas SAR: Application date: 07 December 2023 Date recorded: 09 April 2024 Expiry date: 09 April 2030 Cifas Case Identifier: 15435315 Product relating to the application, proposal, account or facility: Personal Loan – Unsecured Facility: Granted Case type: Misuse of facility Reason(s) for filing: Evasion of payment Financial Loss Value of Loss: £5000.00 When did you raise the complaint? Last night via email Do you have Correspondence / Audit Trails of communications showing that you were in severe financial strain due to an event AFTER you took the loan? I can prove that I had to buy a new washing machine, I have my pay slips showing the emergency tax code and a letter from the tax office after I had spoken with them to get it corrected and of course I can get a copy of my vet bill. And all of this was in the first 2-3 months of 2024.  I panicked. Stupid I know and as you say, I have learned the hard way and I am not in any way denying anything that I have done wrong, but it just feels a bit unfair.  It is what it is I guess and if I have to have it on me forever then so be it. I am just so worried about the bank situation 😕

    • 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.

oh mine was from optima legal on behalf of MBNA.

 

I've had Aegis and RMA chasing me, but I think they gave up, least not heard from them for a while and MBNA seem to have taken over.

I m at stage of 'threatened legal action'. Can anyone tell me does the signature of the person selling me the card on the application form constitute the lenders signature. The agreement they sent me May 2005 looks similar to others i.e application form with half page t&c s on the back.:|

I would say any signature of the creditors staff would constitute a lenders signature yes. I don't know if where it appears is significant (the one on mine looks like a signature stamp in the top right hand corner together with what looks like a date stamp at the top of the form).

 

My application with t&cs on the back with the address panel above it is virtually illegible. How is yours?

Just write and ask MBNA how they are protecting your data overseas when they give your details to Aegis. I did and I never heard from them again. To be fair I had had a few international sales calls which started up just after the account was passed to them, so it was pretty damn obvious they were passing OH's info around (which I also mentioned).

 

Interestingly, if you have a look on (I think) the ICO's site, it's stated that there are only a few places/countries which have to adhere to data protection laws that we have. Mumbai was not one of them.

 

I do wonder if anything could be done about that - you sign up for data protection, but they then sell/pass your information to a company in a country that needn't abide by the laws you signed up to. How does that work??

Hello

 

You've just done it:)

 

If you want to start a new thread rather than just replying to a post, go the the main forum page, find the title that most matches what you need (ie MBNA), then once you're in that bit of the forum just click on the 'new thread' button (looks just like the 'post reply' one).

 

Lexis:)

I have had a response from MBNA which says, here is a copy of teh executed agreement (which there wasn't), but which also had the sentence " A copy of the signed credit card application form and agreement is not available due to archive retrieval issues.

 

Now my first thought is that if they say they can't get it out of the system, who is to know if they have it or not. If I don't know whether or not they have it, how can I take them to court to get the acount ruled unenforceable.

 

A complaint to the ICO will be pointless.

 

Anybody else had this, and what did you do.

Oh what a classic, these people never fail to surprise me with their lame excuses.

 

How about, a reply of " I am therefore unable to supply payment against this account, which I do not acknowledge as I have run out ink in my pen"

  • Haha 1

There is no such thing as a 0% credit card....... someone out there is paying for it, and for once its not going to be me.:razz:

Thatch007, I am now jealous of anyone who has had a response from MBNA having had nothing since starting the 'in dispute' process at the end of February 09!

I am hoping it means they also have nothing to send to me.

All I keep getting is the standard, we are investigating your claim so give us another couple of months until we can source new ink for our John Bull set excuse. Even RMA/NCO have given up without so much as a fight. I'm now sitting tight and waiting for their next move.

Hi everyone

Yes basa mine is unintelligible too.

 

Interesting thing i read on liberty/know your rights website which stated that ref to data protection act-if the data controller at the credit company states that they refuse to give you copies of your data you can request to visit the data controllers premises-is this right?

 

Im also gettting confused. Can an application with t&c on the back be enforceable in court. Important as i m on the road to this(threatened with legal action by mbna).

 

Thanks:confused:

Sounds to me then like they're well aware of the dp issues but do sod all about it unless you point it out. Obviously they're quite happy for your details to be released to all and sundry. Bankers;)

As far as I understand as long as your sig. is on the same piece of paper that contains the prescribed terms (even if on the reverse side) it is good to go.

 

I don't know about procedures for inspection under the Data Protection Act, but you can insist on attending a creditors premises to inspect documents mentioned in court disclosure.
