    • Hi All, So brief outline. I have Natwest CC debt £8k last payment i made was 7th November 2018 Not a penny since. So coming up to the 6 year mark. Can't remember when i took out the  credit card would be a few years before everythign hit the fan. Moved house 2020 - updated NatWest as I still have a current account with them. Then Lowells took over from Moorcroft and were writing to me at my current address. I did get a family member to speak to them 3 years ago regarding the debt explained although it may be in my name I didn't rack it up then went contact again. 29th may received an email from overdales saying they were now managing the debt. I have not had any letter yet which i thought is odd?  Couple of questions 1. Does my family member speaking to lowell restart statute barred clock? 2. Do you think overdales aren't writing to me because they will back door CCJ to old address even though Lowells have contacted me at current address never at previous? ( have no proof though stupidly binned all letters  ) Should I write to them and confirm my address just incase? Does this restart statute barred clock? 3. what do you think best course of action is?   Any help/advice is appreciated I am aware they may ramp up the process now due to 7th December being the 6 year mark.   Many Thanks in advance! The threads on here have been super helpful to read.  
    • Hello all, just got this from my bank today.   ” Update on your payment refund As you know we temporarily refunded the amount(s) of £381.98 to your account pending investigation. We’re pleased to confirm that an additional amount of £359.99 has also been refunded to your account by the retailer on 18th March 2024. What will happen next To correct this situation, arrangements will be made on 6th June 2024 to reverse the original refund supplied from us.  Our file in respect of this matter will now be closed, which we trust is satisfactory.”   Not sure what to do as I was previously told if I hear nothing back after a certain date that would be the case closed now it’s been changed to the 6th of June. and as you see I’m not getting a full refund I don’t know wether to contact them again and try to get the £20, or if I even can at this point? Thanks again.   
    • Is your current mental health causing you to apply negative thinking? If the answer is yes, then you should get some advice.

    • So even if they do repair it in time, you still need to get a marquee etc? If they don't repair it in time, you have to find a new venue? I'm confused?

    • 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.

Just done another quick scan with Malware Bytes and it found 19 infected objects. All reg key and all Trojans. Deleted them and restarted. Still have the Configuring Update problem though. Also, I still can't install a new Notrepad or Adobe Reader as they no longer work.

 

I think we are getting there though. Slowly but surely:p.

 

I have had viruses before, but I've managed to clear them. They seem to be getting more clever now.

 

 

If all else fails, kick them where it hurts and SOD'EM;)

Right then, maybe getting somewhere.

 

Adobe Reader = Sorted

NotePad = Sorted

WordPad = Sorted

Malware Bytes = Sorted

Avast Anti Virus = Sorted

 

There will probably be other applications affected but I will have to deal with them if and when.

 

 

The biggest Bugbear I am having is the fact that my system is still configuring 3 updates every time I shut down or re-boot. I manually installed 2 unimportant updates last night to see if that would help, but it

hasn't.

 

I can now use the User Account Control as normal also.

 

It just seems the Configuring Updates is the only problem (touch wood), but it is a pain.

 

I really appreciate everyone's help (especially dx and Locotus).;)

 

Thanks again:)

Tried that dx, typed in sfc /scannow, got this message:-

Windows resource protection could not perform the required operation.

 

Tried it again in Safe Mode, got this message:-

 

There is a system repair pending which requires reboot to complete. Restart Windows and run sfc again.

(also got this message in normal mode).

 

I have looked at windows installed updates, everything is up to date and it says every installed update was successful.

I found a solution to the Vista Windows update error and have tried posting it to the thread. But twice it did not appear ans since all I got was a blank page when I submitted the post, I figured something was wrong.

I am sure your readers would like to have this because it totally worked for me and was easy. Trust me, I have tried everything else short of re-installing Vista.

So here is the solution that worked:

1. Open the start menu.

2. Type “cmd” into the search and right click on “cmd.exe” and choose “Run as Administrator”

3. Type in “takeown /f C:\Windows\winsxs\pending.xml”

4. Type in “cacls C:\Windows\winsxs\pending.xml /G :F” Note: Your user name will display when you execute step three. (Don’t enter the ““)

5. Type in “del C:\Windows\winsxs\pending.xml”

6. Reboot

7. Downloaded & install the Windows update Agent.

32-bit Users Download it Here:

http://download.windowsupdate.com/v7/windowsupdate/redist/standalone/WindowsUpdateAgent30-x86.exe

64-bit Users Get it Here:

http://download.windowsupdate.com/v7/windowsupdate/redist/standalone/WindowsUpdateAgent30-x64.exe

8. Start Windows update

Since its been so long since I have been able to update, Windows Update had to

update first!

Credit where credit is due:

I can get it to accept step 3, but only because I removed the space before .xml at the end.

 

I can't get it to accept step 4, there must be a spacing error, I will follow the link and double check.

DCA's view debtors as suckers, marks and mugs

NO DCA has ANY legal powers whatsoever on ANY debt no matter what it's Type

and they

are NOT and can NEVER  be BAILIFFS. even if a debt has been to court..

If everyone stopped blindly paying DCA's Tomorrow, their industry would collapse overnight...

I've tried all that. The problem is section 4. There is a space wrong or something. Did as you say and got a complete list of gobbledygook that I wouldn't understand in a million years.

 

Something about ACL's and SDDLS and stuff:confused:

 

 

If all else fails, kick them where it hurts and SOD'EM;)

ok i've looked

 

the line poss should read:

cacls C:\Windows\winsxs\pending.xml /G username:F

 

where username is an administrator.

 

just remember the forum software here will insert spaces to stop the code running here

Right. Got the Del pending and then rebooted. Didn't notice any difference though. It still said configuring updates on shut down and reboot. I will now install from the link you gave me.:)

If I try repeating the process under Command Prompt, it won't let me. I believe that it still exists somewhere. I need to know how to get rid of the existing Windows Update Installer before I can start again with a new installation.

 

It's not the end of the world (I don't think) to have to put up with it configuring non existent updates all the time. I'm just worried that it won't install any future updates that may be important.
