    • 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.

Dear CAG Users

 

Some of you know that I have taken Lowell Portfolio I Ltd to court for enforcement orders under the Data Protection Act 1998.

 

Lowell’s have published incorrect data with all the credit reference agencies and have refused to deal with any disputes.

 

Today (18/02/2009) was a directions hearing at Peterborough County Court. Lowells appear very worried about the case and have chosen to use a barrister to defend them at court.

 

Today lasted 1 hour and the judge has indicated the next hearing in April will last 5 hours. The case is currently allocated to the small clams process. However the judge was in minds to reallocate the hearing to the fast track due to the complex legal issues.

 

If I obtain the orders this will be a big issue to all the debt collection agencies as they will no longer be able to continue carrying on business the way they currently do.

 

Lowells barrister confirmed today, that should I obtain judgement Lowells would take the matter to appeal and would be willing to take the matter up with the high court of appeal should it be necessary.

 

I need help and support from users who can donate some funds to help with my legal expenses, I need to instruct a barrister to work the case on my behalf and also seek legal insurance to protect my self financially should I lose the case.

 

The current Lowell topic with over 700 replies has sadly been moved into a private area of the forum to stop the Lowell Group watching the progress of the case.

 

If anyone is interested in joining the private topic please PM a forum admin who will arrange to give you access.

 

Its vital this case continues or Lowells will once again get away with there bad ways

 

Some of you may know that Lowells have been on the BBC TV Watchdog programme for the way they conduct business.

 

All the best

 

Dave (UK26)

Was up till 4am reading your thread and am surprised you are taking it so far. Having said that it's about time they were brought to book. I think that the movement to a private forum is overdue, it's obvious there are spies. Good luck with the case.

Well I would but I cannot access it as apparently it appears that I am either a) A lowells spy or B) so untrustworthy that I cant even access a forum that I think I have posted on.

 

 

Anyway back to espionage for dummies!

 

This post provides three functions... first to tell Woody that the first post does state "PM to site admin to get access" :D:D:D

 

Secondly to ask is there a target? I dont know much about barrister costs, are they the ones in funny wigs in crown court?

 

and thirdly just a shameless bump as this needs to be made a sticky really! Site Admins?

 

The actions of DCA's and their flouting of the laws of the land need to be brought to account.

I've no idea of the cost of employing barristers etc but I know that some very experienced CAGgers are working on this and this should keep the costs down a little.

 

Meanwhile I wish UK26 and all of his legal team the very best,the stakes are high but could change the face of the debt collection industry as we know it.

 

Knowledge is Power and CAG seem to have plenty of both.

Just a thought, I subscribed to the thread in question back when it was only a couple of pages long, I have not posted on it yet but can view it after it was made private.

 

Does this mean anyone who subscribed before it was made private can access it now?

 

If this is not an issue please ignore me, but I though it was worth mentioning as I am sure we do not want the wrong people looking in.

Lowells need bringing to book.

Today Lowells, aka Hamptons, aka Red sent me a letter saying they would be contacting experian for a copy of my credit file to decide which route of enforcement they were going to take.

I thought that only the person named could could call for a personal file and in any case, a DCA should not be able to conduct a search as they are not an approved financial organisation.

As soon as I have some spare cash, its coming your way.

Of course I will pay you everything you say I owe with no proof.

Oooh Look....Flying Pigs

You do know who OWNS the CRAs, i.e. the DCAs/Banks, they are the CUSTOMERS of the DCAs, thats why im amazed when i read such things on here as "i have checked my credit file today", as soon as you do that it gets flaged up to all these morons, and the next thing you know your letter box and phone is full of all of them.

 

Big wake up call DO NOT check your credit file.

UK26-Saw your call for a stickie-but in view of all the stickies in this forum-it prob would be better to leave it-as interest is rejuvenated following the recent developments it should float around the top with an occasional bump.

Threat-o-gram no doubt sent by Lowell, if it came direct from "3" no doubt payment would be requested to their address - and not that of a third party who will take a percentage of the payment if it is made.

Advice offered by ENRON is without prejudice and is for your judgement as to whether to take it. You should seek the assistance or hire of a solicitor or other paid professional if in doubt.
