    • Few tweaks as the run order was completely messed up and the main point of your defence (reconstituted agreement) pushed to the bottom of the statement.   I, XXXXXX, being the Defendant in this case will state as follows; I make this Witness Statement in support of my defence in this claim and further to my set aside application dated 1 November 2022. 1.The claimants witness statement confirms that it mostly relies on hearsay evidence as confirmed by the drafts in person in the opening paragraph. It is my understanding they must serve notice to any hearsay evidence pursuant to CPR 33.2(1)(B) (notice of intention to rely on hearsay evidence) and Section 2 (1) (A) of the Civil Evidence Act. 2.  I understand that the claimant is an Assignee, a buyer of defunct or bad debts, which are bought on mass portfolios at a much reduced cost to the amount claimed and which the original creditors have already wrote off as a capital loss and claimed against taxable income as confirmed in the claimants witness statement exhibit by way of the Deed of Assignment. 3. As an assignee or creditor as defined in section 189 of the CCA this applies to this new requirement on assignment of rights.  This means that when an assignee purchases debts (or otherwise acquires rights under a credit agreement) it also acquires certain obligations to the borrower including the duty to comply with CCA requirements (such as the rules on statements and notices and other post-contractual information).  The assignee becomes the creditor under the agreement. This ensures that essential consumer protections under the CCA cannot be circumvented by assigning the debt to a third party. 4.  I became aware of original Judgement following a routine credit check on or around 14th September 2020. 5. The alleged letter of claim dated 7 January 2020 was served to a previous address which I moved out of in 2018, no effort was made to ascertain my correct address.  I have attached a copy of my tenancy agreement which is marked ‘Appendix 1’ and shows I was residing at a difference address as of 11 December 2018 and was therefore not at the service address at the time the proceedings were served.  I have also attached an email from my solicitors to the Claimants solicitors dated 14 July 2022 which was sent to them requesting that they disclose the trace of evidence they utilised prior to issuing the proceedings against me.  This is marked ‘Appendix 2’. The claimants solicitors did not provide me with these documents. 6. Under The Pre-Action Protocol for Debt Claims 2017 a Debt Buyer must undertake all reasonable enquiries to ensure the correct address of a debtor, this can be as simple as a credit file search. The Claimant failed to carry out such basic checks. Subsequently all letters prior to and including ,The Pre action Protocol letter of claim dated 7 January 2020 and the claim form dated 14th February 2020 were all served to a previous address which I moved out of in 2018. 7. Upon the discovery of the Judgement debt, I made immediate contact with the Court and the Claimant Solicitors, putting them on notice that I was making investigations in relation to the Judgement debt as it was not familiar to me.  I asked them to provide me with a copy of the original loan agreement but this was not provided to me.   The correspondence to the Claimant Solicitor's is attached and marked ‘Appendix 3’ 8. On (insert date) I successfully made application to set a side the judgment. The claim proceeded to allocation, 9. The claimant failed to comply with the additional directions ordered by District Judge Davis on the 2 February 2024 'The Claim shall be automatically struck out at 4pm on 3 April 2024 unless the Claimant delivers to the Court and to the Defendant the following documents.' None of these documents were received by the court nor the defendant by that date. (insert date you did receive the documents) I then sent a Data Subject Access Request to Barclays but no agreement was provided. Details the timeline of communication between myself and Barclays are attached and marked ‘Appendix 4’and the copies of correspondence between myself and Barclays are attached and marked ‘Appendix 5’. Remove irrelevant 10.The claimant relies upon and has exhibited a reconstituted version of the alleged agreement. It is again denied that I have ever entered into an agreement with Barclaycard on or around 2000.  It is admitted that I did hold other credit agreements with other creditors and as such should this be a debt that was assigned to Barclaycard from another brand therefore the reconstituted agreement disclosed is invalid being pre April 2007 and not legally enforceable pursuant to HHJ Judge Waksman in Carey v HSBC 2009 EWHC3417.  Details of this are attached and marked ‘Appendix 6’. The original credit agreement must be provided along with any reconstituted version on a modified credit agreement and must contain the names and address of debtor and creditor, agreement number and cancelation clause. 11. Therefore the claimant is put to strict proof to disclose a true executed legible agreement on which its claim relies upon and not mislead the court. 12. It is denied I have ever received a default Notice pursuant to sec 87(1) CCA1974.The claimant is put to strict proof to evidence from the original creditors internal document software the trigger of said notice.  13.   As per CPR 1.4(2)(a) the court encourages parties to cooperate with each other in the conduct of proceedings in order to try and save time and costs for the parties and to also save the time and resources of the court however, despite vast attempts at mediation the claimants have been most unreasonable and have remained unwilling to mediate. 14. Until such time the claimant can comply and disclose a true executed copy of the original assigned agreement they refer to within the particulars of this claim they are not entitled while the default continues, to enforce the agreement pursuant to section 78.6 (a) of the Credit Consumer Act 1974. I believe that the facts stated in this Witness Statement are true.  I understand that proceedings for contempt of court may be brought against anyone who makes, or causes to be made, a false statement in a document verified by a statement of truth without an honest belief in its truth.

    • As one of you mentioned above I've been in a mess for nearly 20 years now and I'm ready to sort my credit report out now - the main reason I got into second round of debt is my kids being unwell and the state considering them not unwell enough for extra help so despite my son being in hospital for 3 months in one year we got extra zero help and I eventually lost my job and got into debt to just so I can be تا my sons hospital bed at his time of need - my life basically fell apart and all these debts got me again 
    • Gosh mate I've woke up this morning with half the worry I had last night when going to sleep!.  I can't believe how much this forum has helped me over the years and I don't  have the words to explain the gratitude I feel towards you guys -  Now that I've slept on it I feel ready to reject this company and my plan is to make them an offer to accept payments to date as full and final settlement - I will I think write them a letter once my review is completed or maybe just send it now whilst they are reviewing explaining my kids are unwell for which reason I'm struggling to survive and if I can politely request for them to accept payment to date as a full and final - I'll mention I don't have any cash or anyone to borrow from to offer a full or even part amount of the remaining balance of the iva and therfore am unable to make a offer of payment.   If they agree to at least even put my offer to the creditors then I feel it's better I hang in there and that way I won't have to deal with any possibilities of more defaults and ccjs    Right now the only adverse effects on my credit report are the iva that is now 3 years old and 2 Ccj one coming of this July and one thus October.    But I am worried new action will begin and new defaults and Ccj may start to appear because I've paying into an agreement im under the impression the 6 year rules starts again so yes I have lost of mixed feelings about this but I'm not going to lie you guys have put some life back into my breath this week as for the last 3 years I've felt caged like an animal and this morning I feel freer I can't explain how much but certainly my soul feel lighter today thanks to yin because I'm now viewing this review totally different to I do yesterday thanks to you guys

    • 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.

:mad:I recently parked in a free parking space in a leisure/retail park after having a sandwich from McDonalds (part of the leisure park) - which I ate in the car. I checked the parking sign above the car to see if there was a time limit but there was not. I walked across the road to sit an exam. After the exam I then walked back over the road, into American Golf Discount store (part of the leisure park) and back to the car.

I found that I had received a PCN for £60 for leaving the leisure complex and video evidence taken.

 

Apparently the car spaces are only to be used for the leisure park but the sign above the car made no mention to that. Apparently there are other different signs dotted around the car park with the Leisure park stores logo - however it was not clear that this meant cannot leave the leisure park - (technically I did use the leisure park services twice.

 

I could not afford the £60 within 7 days, and refuse to pay a £100 fine now. I have received 2 letters since threatening court action. I feel a bit conned by the whole event as it was unclear that you cannot leave the leisure park complex.

 

Any advice? Is this enforceable? Should I write to them? Should I pay? PLease help!

Don't write to them - you will be seen as a fish starting to bite the bait.

 

As you will have probably read already the advice would be the same as with all other PPC Invoices:

 

1. Ignore

2. Ignore

3. Return to Step 1

 

If you haven't already expect a letter from Roxburghe "Debt Collectors" suggesting they will pass things along to their solictor if you don't pay. Ignore - its part of their "business plan" to make you think you have no option but to pay.

 

After that expect your file to be moved accross the office to another desk and then receive perhaps two letters from a solictor using the name Graham White (aka Micheal Sobell) suggesting if you don't pay they will consider legal action and nasty things will happen. You might notice that the phone number for Roxburgh is one digit different to that of Micheal Sobell. Strange eh ?

 

After that it would seem you won't receive anything else - you become a fish that got away.

 

It was a free carpark - they didn't incur any losses. You don't owe them anything.

 

Read up on Private Parking Companies (PPC's) on this and other forums - understand how they work - in a nutshell scaring people into paying money.

 

What is just as concering is that the DVLA are as complicit in this whole [problem] as the likes of Excel as they are quite happy to reap a few pounds for every Registerd Keepers Details they provide to these PPC's on the basis they have "Due Reason" despite the fact many would argue it is a against the Data Protection Act and they have no reason to supply this information.

 

If your going to write to anybody send a letter to your local MP demanding action that the DVLA should be stopped from doing this.

 

Remember that whilst it is presented to you as a PCN it IS NOT A Penalty Charge Notice - something issed by the Police or Council which would be a different ball game alltogether.

 

HTH.

It's evidence of nothing.

 

I could not afford the £60 within 7 days, and refuse to pay a £100 fine now.

 

It's not a fine, it is in fact no more than a begging letter.

 

I have received 2 letters since threatening court action. I feel a bit conned by the whole event as it was unclear that you cannot leave the leisure park complex.

 

If they had any chance of 'court action' do you really believe you would get letter after letter?

 

Any advice? Is this enforceable?

 

No

 

Should I write to them?

 

No

 

Should I pay?

 

No

 

PLease help!

Please remember our troops, fighting and dying in our name. God protect them.

I just received one as I was walking back to my car today. was only gone 15 minutes to get change for the machine.

 

He was writing out the ticket as I got there. I said to my wife to get a ticket and the guy said why bother, let me stick this ticket on your car instead because you can now park for free as you have a ticket already. Like a fool I did then went into the restaurant and ate.

 

I assume he then got his photos. I didnt really think at the time.

 

Ive read all the posts on here saying ignore but not any outcome. How long have people been ignoring and how much extra have they charged?

 

I aint got £60 but feel im going to have to pay it because I dont want to ignore and end up with baylifts coming round.

Because if you ignore the only outcome will be the give up. Most people don't come back to report that (although some do).

 

Do you think the advice would be Ignore if that wasn't the way to handle a Invoice such as the one you have ?

 

 

I aint got £60 but feel im going to have to pay it because I dont want to ignore and end up with baylifts coming round.

 

Bailiffs are not going to come round, your credit rating will not be effected and so on (despite the letters you will receive in attempt to make the unwary and gullable think otherwise). For anything like that to happen:

 

1. You must be taken to Court

2. You must loose the case

3. You refuse to pay the Court after the event

 

The PPC that issued your Invoice are not going to venture anywhere near [1] as they wouldn't stand a chance of getting anywhere so their threats are as empty as a bottle with nothing in it.

 

Chances are the Invoice you have received doesn't comply with law anyway - eg must have the Companies Regsitsered address in full and so on.

 

By all means pay the £60 (you don't have) and at the same time let me have your address and I'll send you an Invoice for £100 covering my time in typing this message for which I expect payment by return. Thanks.

Don't worry about it. You won't be going anywhere near a court, nor ailiffs round your house.

They work on fear factor.

Try as i might, i can't get these muppets to take me to court. Even asked them to do so. Nope, won't do it.

how much extra have they charged?

 

Bear in mind that the 'charge' increase is an arbitary figure plucked out of the air. You'd think it was a bit strange if your telephone bill was £10 and then two weeks later it suddenly became £80, just cos BT felt like it!

My wife paid the £60, can do without the stress and fear of being taken to court.

 

:eek: :eek: :eek: :eek: :eek:

 

Congratulations you've just thrown £60 down the drain and caused the PPC's to perhaps stay around just a little bit longer. I'm sure any worthy charity would have welcomed such a donation.

 

I can hear the laughter from Excel from here. Your not Simon Renshaw-Smith in disguse are you ?

 

Oh, forgot to say your wife owes me £100 for the message I typed earlier. If you don't pay I'm going to take you to court. Be warned this will not go away.

Increased the charge to £100 as previously mentioned.

OP's choice. £60 is obviously worth the peace of mind.. ;)

 

Slight correction DMD. mickeuk2004 is not the OP.

Of course it's their choice/decision - it's just such a damn shame that's all, especially as money is obviously tight for them.

Now & again **it happens to us all & you have to show some bottle & deal with it/or not.

The pity also is that they may now feature on some sucker list.

 

I also find it frustrating that advice is asked for, given & then completely ignored.

Ah well, you can lead a horse to water & all that.
