    • I'm still pondering/ trying to find docs re the above issue. Moving on - same saga; different issue I'm trying to understand what I can do: The lender/ mortgagee-in-possession has a claim v me for alleged debt. But the debt has only been incurred due to them failing to sell property in >5y. I'm fighting them on this.   I've been trying to get an order for sale for 2y.  I got it legally added into my counterclaim - but that will only be dealt with at trial.  This is really frustrating. The otherside's lawyers made an application to adjourn trial for a few more months - allegedly wanting to try sort some kind of settlement with me and to use the stay to sell.  At the hearing I asked Judge to expedite the order for sale. I pointed out they need a court-imposed deadline or this adjournment is just another time wasting tactic (with interest still accruing) as they have no buyer.  But the judge said he could legally only deal with the order at trial. The otherside don't want to be forced to sell the property.. Disclosure has presented so many emails which prove they want to keep it. I raised some points with the judge including misconduct of the receiver. The judge suggested I may have a separate claim against the receiver?   On this point - earlier paid-for lawyers said my counterclaim should be directed at the lender for interference with the receiver and the lender should be held responsible for the receiver's actions/ inactions.   I don't clearly understand that, but their legal advice was something to do with the role a receiver has acting as an agent for a borrower which makes it hard for a borrower to make a claim against a receiver ???.  However the judge's comment has got me thinking.  He made it clear the current claim is lender v me - it's not receiver v me.  Yet it is the receiver who is appointed to sell the property. (The receiver is mentioned/ involved in my counterclaim only from the lender collusion/ interference perspective).  So would I be able to make a separate application for an order for sale against the receiver?  Disclosure shows receiver has constantly rejected offers. He gave a contract to one buyer 4y ago. But colluded with the lender's lawyer to withdraw the contract after 2w to instead give it to the ceo of the lender (his own ltd co) (using same lawyer).  Emails show it was their joint strategy for lender/ ceo to keep the property.  The receiver didn't put the ceo under any pressure to exchange quickly.  After 1 month they all colluded again to follow a very destructive path - to gut the property.  My account was apparently switched into a "different fund" to "enable them to do works" (probably something to do with the ceo as he switched his ltd co accountant to in-house).   Interestingly the receiver told lender not to incur significant works costs and to hold interest.  The costs were huge (added to my account) and interest was not held.   The receiver rejected a good offer put forward by me 1.5y ago.  And he rejected a high offer 1y ago - to the dismay of the agent.  Would reasons like this be good enough to make a separate application to the court against the receiver for an order for sale ??  Or due to the main proceedings and/or the weird relationship a borrower has with a receiver I cannot ?
    • so a new powerless B2B debt DCA set up less than a month ago with a 99% success rate... operating on a NWNF basis , but charging £30 to set up your use of them. that's gonna last 5mins.... = SPAMMERS AND SCAMMERS. a DCA is NOT a BAILIFF and have  ZERO legal powers on ANY debt - no matter WHAT its type. dx

    • You could send an SAR to DCbl on the pretext that you are going for a breach of your GDPR . They should then send the purported letter of discontinuance which may show why it ended up in Gloucester and see if you can get your  costs back on the day. It obviously won't be much but  at least perhaps a small recompense for your wasted day. Not exactly wasted since you had a great win  albeit much sweeter if you had beat them in Court. But a win is a win so well done. We will miss you as it has been almost two years since you first started out on this mission. { I would n't be surprised if the wrong Court was down to DCBL}. I see you said "till the next time" but I am guessing you will be avoiding private patrolled car parks for a while.🙂
    • It is extremely disappointing that you haven't told us anything about the result of the hearing. You came here at the very last minute and the regulars - all unpaid volunteers - sweated blood trying to get an acceptable Witness Statement prepared in an extremely short time. The least you could have done is tell us how the hearing went, information invaluable for future users. Evidently not.

    • 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 LB145,

looks like Exspurto won't be getting a Christmas Party then.

 

The point is though if they were so cock sure why the hell didn't they take proceedings earlier? Why settle for £8K why not go for the lot?

 

Did they mention a Statutory demand?

 

Did you tape the call to EC that would be funny?

Phone just rang - EC number came up on screen - man introduced himself from CMC - asked him if he was sure of that as this number is listed as EC! He agitatedly informed me that CMC is another name for Experto Credite!!! He then went into his speech of you have agreed to a settlement of £8k - I interrupted and told him to read the up to date letters - He then started to shout at me as to why I thought a settlement of £4k was acceptable when the balance was £19k - if he read the content of the letter he would know that I have taken legal advice and my solicitor is on standby - pressed the red button on phone and all went silent!!! :lol:

Very nice LB,

you should have said £4k is more than fair because you probably paid £2k for it in the first place.

 

They are so amusing, I just wish they would read the letters they are sent. You should record them and post it on youtube give us all a laugh :)

 

 

One more thing do you think in numpty land C*C is supposed to sound intimidating.

 

For a laugh read their site.

 

http://www.cmcdebtrecovery.co.uk/

 

I love the bit:

 

"At C*C, we do not just attempt to collect debt through the usual methods of telephone and letter. If ignored, we do not stop our action and close our file."

 

We phone you up and shout. Please nooo stop your scaring me with your ineptitude and juvenile banter.

 

 

"If a debt is collectable – we’ll collect it."

 

Apparently they collect Statute barred debts too. So that sums them up then.

 

"All our staff possess a thorough understanding of regulatory guidelines and debt recovery law. They adopt the best debt collection practices and are able to assess individual circumstances to determine the quickest, most cost effective way to recover the amount owed."

 

So that includes ignoring letters asking not to be called does it. Issuing Statutory demands for a disputed debt etc.

 

Clown Party

Did he give his name? Id start recording their phone calls if they are going to start shouting at you.

Curious to know how they collect on Statute barred alleged debts? Id guess by intimidation and threatograms.

  • 2 weeks later...

Been really busy lately and have not been receiving updates on threads! Well had another call this week from Experto - told her that her colleague also rang last week and was most irritated and rather loud! She asked if I was making payment - informed her of the last letter to her colleague and to read the contents but I will give her quick catch up - faulty DN notice followed by sale of alleged debt to Varde Investments 8 days prior to remedy date - therefore if it went to court they would not be entitled to very much at all if anything - if we agreed a F&F it would be for £4k or nothing bearing this in mind - as solicitors on standby.

 

She told me no and that was the end of conversation - probably as its the last week of the month there will be more this week - they always try to reach their targets!:lol:

I cant wait to let them know that MBNA have just sent me a letter stating that they cannot find the original agreement, and until they can they will not take any court action. EC will not be best pleased at what they've bought....thats apart from the invalid DN like yours!

Sorry to hear that Redfish.....any details as to why?

I found out that the envelopes with the DN had got mixed up (not sure if it was our mix up or the solicitors) and instead of having the Chester address on the back had a Northampton address. So my solicitors decided not to go to trial on that because the MBNA Witness Statement was claiming MBNA never send out DNs 2nd class! I think there is a higher court case coming up near Christmas which may show that MBNA do actually send out DNs 2nd class...

My DN's from them have been sent out 2nd class, so they are obviously lying if they say that.

Receiving texts on my mobile and phone calls to my home number - not received a single letter of acknowledgement for my CCA request! Should I send further letter, refer to Ombudsmen or sit and wait? (not very good at the waiting part :rolleyes: )

 

You need to make them aware that continued contact in this manner is a crime and you will report them to the authorities under the "Harrassment Act 1997" punishable by a term of imprisonment and/or a fine (£5000?). The statute says "no more than two phone calls"

Its the last week of the month so they will harrass in an effort to reach their monthly targets.....

Well the texts came, the phone calls started - three different Experto employees each losing their cool threatening court action etc. Explained that offer was for £4k F&F - told not acceptable by Experto - Fourth Employe rang up calmly and asked me why I would not pay previously agreed £8k - so explained the situation again - was not happy with the partial settlement and that the wording on the letter from Experto was inaccurate and utter rubbish, so lets go to court!

 

Within 2 minutes an Experto Underwriter called and agreed that the Experto wording was wrong and that they could inform credit agencies that the debt had been settled - £4K was too low and £6k was acceptable with settled on file. OH decided to settle at 30% - the courts seem to be such a gamble on Judge lottery - at least another one ticked off the list!
