    • 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.

Haven't been in contact with them for a while,

 

 

have been ignoring the letters from the various different debt collection agencies for some time.

 

 

It was only yesterdays letter (from Bryan Carter) that I'm responding to

 

 

(asking Lowell to put the account on hold and sending a SAR to Lloyds).

Not heard back from Lloyds after sending the SAR, nor did I hear back from Lowell about putting the account on hold. Today I've just received a Claim Form. Assuming that I won't hear back from Lloyds for a while, do I now have no choice but to pay up (in instalments, there's no way I can afford the full amount in one go)?

Name of the Claimant: Lowell Portfolio Ltd

 

Date of issue: 23 June 2015

 

Date of issue XX + 19 days ( 5 day for service + 14 days to acknowledge) = XX + 14 days to submit defence = 25 July 2015

What is the claim for – the reason they have issued the claim?

 

The claimants claim is for the sum of 2125, being monies due from the defendant to the claimant under an agreement regulated by the consumer credit act 1974 between the defendant and Lloyds under account reference X and assigned to the claimant on 03/07/2013, notice of which has been given to the defendant.

 

The defendant failed to maintain contractual repayment under the terms of the agreement and a default notice has been served which has not been complied with.

 

And the claimant claims 2125

. The claimant also claims statutory interest pursuant to S.69 of the county act 1984 at a rate of 8% per annum from the date of assignment of the agreement to date but limited to a maximum of one year and a maximum of 1000 amounting to 170.

 

What is the value of the claim? Total amount after interest, court fee and solicitor's costs - 2479

 

Is the claim for a current account (Overdraft) or credit/loan account or mobile phone account? Overdraft

When did you enter into the original agreement before or after 2007? Before

 

Has the claim been issued by the original creditor or was the account assigned and it is the Debt purchaser who has issued the claim. Claimed by Lowell, not Lloyds

 

Were you aware the account had been assigned – did you receive a Notice of Assignment? Yes

 

Did you receive a Default Notice from the original creditor? Yes

 

Have you been receiving statutory notices headed “Notice of Default sums” – at least once a year ? Yes

 

Why did you cease payments? Had other debts to pay, and as this one is made up of bank charges I didn't feel it was fair to pay them back

 

What was the date of your last payment? Some time in 2011 I think

 

Was there a dispute with the original creditor that remains unresolved? Yes

 

Did you communicate any financial problems to the original creditor and make any attempt to enter into a debt managementicon plan? Yes

Excellent....ok as you will see from the link provided you have 33 days in total (if defending )....If you wish to try to avoid a CCJ then there is no other option but to defend in full.

 

Register to use the MCOL and then you can respond on line.First task is to acknowledge service...this must be done by day 19 from 23 June (23rd being day 1)

 

Next you need to read the following link and send to the claimants solicitor....

Ok thanks,

just wondering (and please bear in mind that I know little to nothing about this sort of thing) as I am contesting the claim,

 

I have no actual 'proof' of their bank charges.

 

As I have said all along on this thread, I am 99% sure the debt is made up entirely of charges, if not the whole debt then almost all of it.

 

However, as I never heard back from Lloyds,

 

how can I prove this without copies of my statements?

You dont need statements at this stage or proof......the claimant does not even know what the debt is (look at their particulars...haven't a clue its an overdraft)...just defend all...submit a holding defence...and they usually discontinue the claim.....(once they know what they have purchased and trying to claim)

Have received a reply from Bryan Carter today.

 

"We write further to your letter requesting disclosure under Part 31.14 of the Civil Procedure Rules.

 

We confirm the Claim Form was issued by the Northampton County Court Business Centre and that the Court's Protocol was followed when issuing the Claimant's Particulars of Claim. Practice Direction 7C point 1.4 (3A) eliminates the requirement to attach the documents to the Particulars of Claim when they are issued by the Court.

 

We confirm this matter will most properly be allocated to the Small Claims Track as this is a simple contractual matter and Part 31 of the Civil Procedure Rules will therefore not apply.

 

It is our understanding that it is policy of the original creditor to issue agreements at the point of contract and statements throughout the duration of the agreement and, in this regard, we ask you to refer to your own records.

 

We confirm our client is not agreeable to an extension for filing your defence. We confirm we are in receipt of your acknowledgement of service.

 

We confirm documents will be provided in accordance to the Courts directions.

 

A Claim was issued in this matter on 23 June 2015. Please respond to the Claim using the Response Pack provided by the Court. You should also comply with the deadlines outlined by the Court in order to avoid a default judgment being entered against you."

Ok thanks. Should I not bother writing back to Bryan Carter? I've seen on other threads a template letter regarding disagreeing with them, and that I cannot prepare my defence without more information regarding their claim. I've also seen posts claiming this letter is pointless and won't make a difference.

Someone mentioned the template letter here, in which you advised them not to bother.

 

 

So should I just ignore Bryan Carter for now, wait for Lloyds to get back to me after my SAR, and start preparing defence?
