    • Even a Piers Morgan is an improvement and a gutless Farage Piers Morgan calls for second Brexit referendum WWW.THELONDONECONOMIC.COM Piers Morgan and Nigel Farage have faced off over Brexit and a second referendum in a heated reunion on BBC Question Time.   “Why don’t we have another referendum about Brexit?” he questioned. “I seem to remember when 2016 came around we were told there was going to be control of our borders and it was going to be economically beneficial to this country. And eight years later we have lost complete control of our borders… and economically it seems to have been a wilful act of self-harm.”   ... Piers missed off : after all somebody said a 48/52 decision would be "unfinished business" by a long way - was that person just bul lying (again)  
    • when did they (who) inform you there was a 'police case' and when was this attained? i will guess the debt is now SB'd as it's UAE 15yrs. have you informed the bsnk ever by email/letter of your correct and current address? you can always ignore anyone else accept the bank,  Block and bounce back all emails. Block any text messages  Ignore any letters unless it's: - a Statutory Demand - a Letter Of Claim - a Court Claimform via Northants bulk.  
    • I left Dubai 8 years ago and intended to return. However a job prospect fell through. I’d been there for 15 years. I decided to pay my credit card and the bank had frozen my account. There is no means to pay the CC so completely unable to pay when I wanted to other than the bank advising me to ask a friend in the UAE to pay it on my behalf!  fast forward bank informs there is a police case against me for non payment. Years later IDR chased me and after months/ years they stopped. Now Judge & Priestley are trying their luck. Now I have received an email in English and Arabic from JP saying the bank has authorised them to collect debts. Is this the same as IDR although I didn’t receive anything like this from them. Just says they are authorised?
    • The neighbour's house is built right on the boundary so the side of their house is effectively the 'wall' in our garden separating the two properties. It's a three storey house and so the mortar poses a potential danger to us. Because of the danger, we have put up an interior fence in our garden to ensure we don't risk mortar dropping on us. That reduces the garden by 25% which is not only an inconvenience, but it's the part of the garden where we had lined up contractors to install a patio and gazebo which we will use for our wedding reception in less than 2 months. We have spoken to the neighbour's caretaker who is on the case, has spoken with a roofer and possibly a scaffolding company, but there are several issues. They don't seem to understand the urgency. As long as there is a risk of falling mortar, we can't carry out any work in the garden, and unless they hurry up, we're looking at cancelling our wedding as it's not viable to book a venue because we can't use our own garden! Also, they want to put the scaffolding up in our garden which would be ok with us if it was a matter of a few days and they hurried up, but there is a tree (most likely protected by the conservation area), so most likely they can only reach part of the roof with the scaffolding if they put it up in our garden. We suggested a roofer with a cherry picker but they seem to want to use a company they've used before. Any and all comments, suggestions, advice is more than welcome.  PS. does it make any difference that the neighbour is a business (ltd) and not a private dwelling?

    • 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.

Hi all , hoping someone can help me. First a bit of back story. I had a fair amount of debt,fairly managable, but started to struggle when my wife lost her job.I started a debt management programme with Payplan in December 2007 and everyone accepted their payments ...a great weight off my shoulders.Then in September 2007 I had to reduce the payment due to my working week being cut from five days to three and a half.The only company not to accept the new offer was Lloyds. They phoned once or twice a month and sent letters saying I had failed to pay the required amount . I told Payplan about these letters and phone calls and they told me not to worry as this was quite normal.I still kept up the payments .Then on April the 18th I received this default notice . I have read a few threads on this but am still unsure of the dates , and when it was served. Was is served on the date on the letter , the 14th April , or when I received it , the 18th of April. In other words is it a valid Default Notice? Thanks for reading, and I hope one of you , with more experience than me , can help.Page1LloydsDefaultNoticecensored.jpg?t=1240339234

Unless you got it on the 14th April which i doubt no it does not comply as no time for service was given as per CPR

That was quick !!Thank you . So what do I do now ? Will they contact me , or will they start court proceedings? When should I let them know that the Default Notice is invalid ? Sorry about all the questions , but I don`t want to get this wrong.

Well no doubt they will now terminate the agreement and pass it on to a debt collection agency.

 

They should not do this though as the DN does not comply, but if they do thats good for you because once they terminate they cannot re-instate without your agreement to do so.

 

I would keep the non-compliant DN under your hat for now and see what there next course of action is.

 

POST back here if you recieve anything else and we will take it from there

BettyPepper, take your personal details out of your letters. DCA's also use these forums.

 

Your first letter has your surname at Dear and the second has your full address and names.

 

Also ensure that you take off any barcodes or number sequences.

Please note that I am not a solicitor or legally trained. The advice I give is from my own personal experience based on my own personal circumstance. If you choose to follow any advice I may give, please make sure you understand the implications of following that advice. :-)

Can you give us details of any letters you have send to Lloyds or the Sols?

 

I would get a CCA request off to both Lloyds and the Sols at this point. You'll find the necessary template letter here http://www.consumerforums.com/resources/templates-library/86-debt-collectors/581-cca-request-letter

 

I would also remain very silent about the DN. It's defective and you don't want to let them know.

 

Once you have sent off your CCA request, sit back and wait for their response. Post any responses on here and someone will comment on them.

The only communication I have had with Lloyds is through phone calls , in which they said that I would have to get in touch with my debt management company to increase the monthly payments ,which I am unable to do.

I will send off the CCA request , and see what happens from there.

Also I checked the address of Sechiari , Clark , and Mitchell solicitors and it is the same as a branch of Lloyds in Brighton right down to the postcode. Is this just a way to make people think it is out of Lloyds hands ? After all , it seems far more serious to receive a letter from a solicitor rather than from a bank.

Debtors Rule Number 1: NEVER talk to a creditor on the phone.

 

A lot of banks use internal DCA's and/or solicitors. And yes, it is designed to solicite a response from you.

 

Please ensure that you send any letters recorded delivery. Letters seem to disappear if they are not sent recorded.

 

My pleasure :) Happy to help.

Their Solicitors have requested you pay the full balance within 14 days, so that means that they have effectively terminated your agreement. Terminating the agreement with a faulty DN leaves you only liable for the amount stated on the DN - £83.06.

 

Apart from that it is the usual threats that "may" happen. They should not be able to win a case in court with the DN they sent you.

 

In the meantime keep the faulty DN in a safe place, and do not make them aware of it.

Expect a claim form through the post, I was in a similar situation but was never served with a DN. Put the account in dispute, same letter as yours from LTSB and hey presto court proceedings. I had the same letter as you threatening court proceedings but just thought they wouldn't be that stupid to issue but now realise that they are!!Good luck - will sub with interestHH

Just a question about faulty D N. Received Court papers and in the process of putting together a defence, Requested a CCA for this account over 6 months ago still outstanding. They are using this as basis of their case together with issuing of Default Notice they issued 2 months before my cca request but looking at this the amount in arearsis 0.00 and the amount they wanted us to pay by the date on the DN was 0.00 so does this mean that this is DN is not valid and can we use this as part of our defence?
