the FOS typically writes to you first not them.

 

if you clearly have been charged these sums...they are unlawful so should be refunded.

 

can you not request a look again,

 

did you do a spreadsheet etc

please don't hit Quote...just type we know what we said earlier..

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...

For those who have lost money as a result of doing business with an authorised firm that is unable or likely to be unable to meet claims made against it, The Financial Services Compensation Scheme’s role is to help them.

has any got any knowlege how to claim from 2001 was told you can only claim from 2004

 

Although the FSA has been regulating mortgages from the end of 2004 the lender may be liable for any acts or omissions prior to that.

 

So, it depends on the circumstances.

Hi Wishboneash

 

You can claim back all arrears charges plus an estimate of what interest they added to the charges. I always estimate myself but there are online calculators that can reckon up the interest for you.

 

As your charges go back to 2001 it is likely that the interest they have taken - at 10%!!! - will total as much if not more than the charges themselves. Trouble is, if you put a claim for over £5000 it may be allocated to the fast track court which is too risky in terms of your possible costs.

 

So claim for a set period of time which will mean your claim stays within the £5000 barrier. You can claim the rest another time!!

 

Eg.

 

Charges 2001 - 2004 = £2000

Interest = £2950

Total claimed = £4950 (this is a fictitious calculation, by the way!)

 

At a later stage, you claim for the period 2004 - 2009.

thanks the mortgage fell into arrears in 2002 ( partner left me with debts ) had my bank account taken off me so only had a passbook so none dd charges were added to the loan , arrears charges mounted up as had to wait for wages to go in pass book then send a cheques off ( building society cheque ) and wait for that to clear interest rate went up after 2 year fix 2008 and 2009 interest rate a punishing 9.7 percent

 

 

then there is the libor issue as well ? ?

Here is a POC I have used. Feel free to use or discount as appropriate.

 

[size="5"

 

]In the XXXXXXXXX COUNTY COURT Claim Number: _____________

 

xxxxxxxxxxxx (claimant) vs xxxxxxxxxxxx(defendant)

 

Particulars of Claim

 

Summary: This is a claim for the return of arrears charges that the claimant believes to be unlawful along with associated interest.

 

1. The claimant has a mortgage with the defendant. Account number XXXXXXXXXXXX. Signed and dated XXXXXXXXXXXXXXX. Original amount of credit £XXXXXXXX

 

2. The loan is subject to the Unfair Terms in Consumer Contracts Regulations 1999 (UTCCR).

 

3. The defendant is statutorily bound by Financial Services Authority regulations – Mortgage Conduct of Business rules (MCOB) contained in the FSA Handbook, implemented under the Financial Services and Markets Act 2000.

 

4. The mortgage fell into arrears after the claimant fell into difficulty and was unable to keep up the repayments as required by the mortgage agreement.

 

5. The defendant levied mortgage arrears charges against the claimant.

 

6. The defendants also levied further interest on the arrears charges.

 

7. The arrears charges were levied at a rate which exceeded their administrative costs. According to the MCOB rules, by which the defendant is statutorily bound, lenders should not impose administrative charges to customers in mortgage arrears unless those charges were,

 

‘a reasonable estimate of the cost of additional administration required as a result of the customer being in arrears’.

 

This rule is found in MCOB 12.4.1(1): 12.4.1(1): ‘A firm must ensure that any contract that it enters into does not impose, and cannot be used to impose, a charge for arrears on a customer except where that charge is a reasonable estimate of the cost of the additional administration required as a result of the customer being in arrears.’

 

8. Additionally, the level of the charges was unfair because they breach the requirement of fairness contained in UTCCR.

 

9. The charges are also unlawful because they are levied in breach of the defendant's statutory duty to treat their customers fairly, as stipulated in MCOB.

 

10. Furthermore, as the amount of the Charges exceeded any genuine pre-estimate of the damage that would have been suffered by the defendant in relation to the Claimant’s transgressions, the Charges were both punitive and a penalty, and thus unenforceable at common law.

 

11. For these reasons the interest levied on the arrears charges is also unlawful

 

 

In conclusion

 

The claimant seeks the return of unlawfully levied charges plus associated interest – £ xxxxxxxx

This is a true statement of the facts

Here are some examples of areas of mortgage advice that may give rise to complaints, and therefore compensation, taken directly from the fiinancial Services website

 

Where a consumer has not been advised about the different types of mortgage available, which resulted in them choosing a mortgage that was not suitable for them at the time. They have lost money as a result.

 

If specific details of the mortgage chosen are incorrect, for example a longer term has been selected than the consumer had intended or required, and the consumer has lost money as a result.

 

If a consumer was advised to switch mortgages but was not given an adequate explanation of why a switch should be made, and the advice to switch mortgages resulted in the consumer losing money.

 

If a consumer was advised to take out a lifetime mortgage that was unsuitable for their circumstances at the time and they have lost money as a result.

 

If you were advised to take out a mortgage endowment policy by a financial adviser, this will usually be an investment claim. These types of claim have been protected by the FSCS since 28 August 1988.
