    • its not about the migrants .. Barrister Helena Kennedy warns that the Conservatives will use their victory over Rwanda to dismantle the law that protects our human rights here in the UK.   Angela Rayner made fun of Rishi Sunak’s height in a fiery exchange at Prime Minister’s Questions, which prompted Joe Murphy to ask: just how low will Labour go? .. well .. not as low as sunak 
    • From #38 where you wrote the following, all in the 3rd person so we don't know which party is you. When you sy it was your family home, was that before or after? " A FH split to create 2 Leasehold adjoining houses (terrace) FH remains under original ownership and 1 Leasehold house sold on 100y+ lease. . Freeholder resides in the other Leasehold house. The property was originally resided in as one house by Freeholder"
    • The property was our family home.  A fixed low rate btl/ development loan was given (last century!). It was derelict. Did it up/ was rented out for a while.  Then moved in/out over the years (mostly around school)  It was a mix of rental and family home. The ad-hoc rents covered the loan amply.  Nowadays  banks don't allow such a mix.  (I have written this before.) Problems started when the lease was extended and needed to re-mortgage to cover the expense.  Wanted another btl.  Got a tenant in situ. Was located elsewhere (work). A broker found a btl lender, they reneged.  Broker didn't find another btl loan.  The tenant was paying enough to cover the proposed annual btl mortgage in 4 months. The broker gave up trying to find another.  I ended up on a bridge and this disastrous path.  (I have raised previous issues about the broker) Not sure what you mean by 'split'.  The property was always leasehold with a separate freeholder  The freeholder eventually sold the fh to another entity by private agreement (the trust) but it's always been separate.  That's quite normal.  One can't merge titles - unless lease runs out/ is forfeited and new one is not created/ granted. The bridge lender had a special condition in loan offer - their own lawyer had to check title first.  Check that lease wasn't onerous and there was nothing that would affect good saleability.  The lawyer (that got sacked for dishonesty) signed off the loan on the basis the lease and title was good and clean.  The same law firm then tried to complain the lease clauses were onerous and the lease too short, even though the loan was to cover a 90y lease extension!! 
    • Northmonk forget what I said about your Notice to Hirer being the best I have seen . Though it  still may be  it is not good enough to comply with PoFA. Before looking at the NTH, we can look at the original Notice to Keeper. That is not compliant. First the period of parking as sated on their PCN is not actually the period of parking but a misstatement  since it is only the arrival and departure times of your vehicle. The parking period  is exactly that -ie the time youwere actually parked in a parking spot.  If you have to drive around to find a place to park the act of driving means that you couldn't have been parked at the same time. Likewise when you left the parking place and drove to the exit that could not be describes as parking either. So the first fail is  failing to specify the parking period. Section9 [2][a] In S9[2][f] the Act states  (ii)the creditor does not know both the name of the driver and a current address for service for the driver, the creditor will (if all the applicable conditions under this Schedule are met) have the right to recover from the keeper so much of that amount as remains unpaid; Your PCN fails to mention the words in parentheses despite Section 9 [2]starting by saying "The notice must—..." As the Notice to Keeper fails to comply with the Act,  it follows that the Notice to Hirer cannot be pursued as they couldn't get the NTH compliant. Even if the the NTH was adjudged  as not  being affected by the non compliance of the NTK, the Notice to Hirer is itself not compliant with the Act. Once again the PCN fails to get the parking period correct. That alone is enough to have the claim dismissed as the PCN fails to comply with PoFA. Second S14 [5] states " (5)The notice to Hirer must— (a)inform the hirer that by virtue of this paragraph any unpaid parking charges (being parking charges specified in the notice to keeper) may be recovered from the hirer; ON their NTH , NPE claim "The driver of the above vehicle is liable ........" when the driver is not liable at all, only the hirer is liable. The driver and the hirer may be different people, but with a NTH, only the hirer is liable so to demand the driver pay the charge  fails to comply with PoFA and so the NPE claim must fail. I seem to remember that you have confirmed you received a copy of the original PCN sent to  the Hire company plus copies of the contract you have with the Hire company and the agreement that you are responsible for breaches of the Law etc. If not then you can add those fails too.

    • 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 Everyone,

 

I requested a copy of my CCA on 4th December and received this reply from them. Would appreciate any opinions from others who have dealt with this company. It is currently up to date but they wrote to me a while ago closing the account, without any valid reason.

 

I wasn't bothered about it being closed but want to try a F & F in order to get it out of the way if possible.

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...

Thanks DX and Blueda,

 

I knew there was a connection to BC, but this was originally with Providian.

 

Am I safe with the 'offsetting rule' as BC were never the original creditor?

 

I remember asking many times over the phone for details of the payment break plan but nothing ever materialised. So maybe SAR next to see how much I have paid on this and look to reclaim.

 

Unless any other suggestions.

Thank you Blueda,

 

Back on my cases now!

 

Will do SAR this week and possibly put account in dispute and stop payments from this month. Never been missed before but so fed up with the extortionate charges and would try to negotiate F & F ultimately.

 

Anyone else had any success with F & F for Monument?

 

Keeping my Credit file good, was so important to me a few months ago but I really don't see that it matters too much nowadays as from my experience getting further credit would be difficult in the current climate anyway.

Hi Blueda,

 

I am subbing to a lot of F & F threads on here, I have tried with Halifax but no joy so far, although they have greatly reduced the interest rate (written confirmation still awaited).

 

Tried with one of my MBNA cards after being given a contact by a successful Cagger, but it didn't work for me, although it appears that quite a few have been successful with them. Anyway have now decided that until they produce a valid CCA, I will not be speaking to them again!

 

Do you mind me asking who you had results with?

Aktiv Kapital £1,153 settled for £440.00 Westcot £1,123 settled for £730.00 Barclaycard £2,079 settled for £831.00. An example of a settlment letter " Dear mr Blueda

We have received your payment in full and final settlement and the account is now considered settled. No action will be taken about any remaining balance.

The credit reference agencies will be notified accordingly ".

Dotty, make sure you destroy the credit cards before taking action.

Thanks for that info Blueda,

 

Aktiv & Wescot, are they DCA's? I have seen these names on other threads, who were the original creditors?

 

Hope you don't mind all the questions!

Aktiv and Westcot are DCAs who purchased the accounts Aktiv ( Time retail ) Westcot ( stylecard ).

Thanks again, Blueda.

 

I see conflicting experience on here, some people seem to get better offers of F & F from the original creditors, then others state it is easier once the debt has been sold, I guess it just depends on the CCC or DCA.

 

I have now done SAR to send tomorrow, also preparing dispute letter, just need a little guidance on the wording regarding the fact that they have sent me what they believe is the CCA.

 

The other CCC's which I have put into dispute, I had not received anything at all so that was simpler to sort.

Easier said than done!

 

I have been going round in circles trying to decide what to send. All the letters I have saved whilst reading threads on here do not really seem applicable for one reason or another.

 

Monument did reply (just) in the statutory time but not with anything I believe to be enforcible, although they differ in opinion.

 

The ones I have put into dispute so far have either not supplied anything or sent unreadable copies so that doesn't apply here.

 

I have looked in the library but still unsure.

 

Any further guidance would be appreciated.

 

Or do I send one of these?

Hi DX and thank you.

 

Yes I expect to be ignored, I just want to ensure that I get it as right as possible, have done a few letters this week for other cards and it was all starting to get a bit blurry!

 

And without any alcohol! At the time anyway. ;)

Hi All,

 

Sent this today, a bit of a variation but gets to the point and as you say, DX, likely to be ignored anyway!

 

Thanks for everyone's comments and assistance.

That is a very good letter Dotty,they can ignore it if they choose but will get the message when the payments are stopped.

Well it's only due to the letters I have read on here, I save any that I think may be of use at some point and adapt accordingly, must admit I was getting in a bit of a tiz last night trying to decide how to word it, but got there in the end.

 

Have had a response to a SAR on one of my other cards today, Capital one so will have my work cut out this weekend to decide where to go next with it.

SAR reply today, how quick is that?

 

Will scan letter asap but only sent more T & C's (slightly different to he ones sent in reply to my CCA request, 3 General workscreen printouts, 10 pages of transactions, from 2003 to 2009 (Account opened in 2001) and 19 pages of.............. not really sure just a sort of tracking sheet from Feb 03 to Dec 2009. No details of application, not even the 'reply card' that they had supplied in my CCA request. Nothing relating to the Payment Break Plan that they are charging.

 

Perhaps they rushed it!

Hi, anyone still subbing?

 

This is the letter that they sent, I think I have read that they only need to go back so far, so how do you work out claim for PPI (or Payment Break Plan, as they call it!)? It assume it was paid from the start but it stopped in May 07! The sheets they sent with the SAR shows calls they made to me when I was a bit late with some payments but no call referring to cancellation of the PPI, very strange!

 

Does anyone have any ideas, how to proceed? I have already put the account in dispute.
