    • I'm not sure we were on standard tariffs - I've uploaded as many proofs as I can for the ombudsman - ovo called last night uping the compensation to 100 from 50 pounds for the slip in customer service however they won't acknowledge the the problem them not acknowledging a fault has caused nor are they willing to remedy anything as they won't accept the meter or formula was wrong.   I'd appreciate more details on the economy 7 approach and I'll update the ombudsman with any information you can share. 
    • To re-iterate and highlight my urgent question on this one: The N24 from the court did not include any instructions to submit paperwork 28 days before the date, unlike the N157 received for other smaller claims. Do I have to submit a WS for this court date? Link has!...
    • No, reading the guidance online it says to wait for a letter from the court. Should I wait or submit the directions? BTW, I assume that the directions are a longer version of the particular of claim accompanied by evidence, correct?
    • Thanks for opening, it's been another rough year for my family and I've procastinated a little.. Due to the age of my defaults on this and other accounts (circa 2021), I really need to avoid a CCJ as that will be another 6 years of credit issues. Mediation failed as I played the 'not enough info to make a decision' however during the call for some reason they did offer settlement at 80%, I refused. this has been allocated to small claims track, court date is June 3 and I've received their WS. I'm starting on my WS. They do appear to have provided everything required of them (even if docs could be reconstructions). Not really sure what my argument is anymore but I do want to attend court and see this through. Should a judgement be made against me then I will clear the balance within 30 days and have the CCJ removed - this is still possible isn't it? I'm going to be reading up today and tomorrow and hope you can provide me some guidance in the meantime. Wonder what your advice would be given the documents they have provided? I am now in a position to clear the debt either by lump sum or a few large installments - Is this something i should look into at this late stage? Thanks as always in advance
    • I have now received my SAR. It includes a great deal of information! Is there a time limit on how long account information is kept and/or can be provided to debtors? I have received many account statements which were not previously sent to me. I remember that the creditor should provide explanations of any acronyms and abbreviations that maybe used in the documents. Is this still the case? Also what, if any, are the regulations in regard to adding fees to a debt? Can fees be added to a debt after the court has approved a charge on a property. Perhaps due to the numerous owners of the debt, many payments I made were not properly recorded on the account, some were entered over a year after the payment was made! Following the Legal Charge, I paid every month until my payments were refused. I am trying to compute the over payments, but the addition of fees etc. is confusing me. Any comments and/or help would be appreciated.

    • 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.

I just checked the default notice for you and to my knowledge it doesnt matter what address of their premise is as long as the company is the same (as in section 3 of 1983 regs the adresses have to be included) and it is issued to you being the same name as on agreement.

 

However this default notice contains no numerical date and only specifies a timescale which is not sufficient so not enforceable. This is specified in the 1983 regulations.

Just reading all this re yur WF car. I had an issue with them back in 2004 where I had paid enough to terminate and hand deliverd the letter - they then said they did not get the letter and defaulted me and said I was now unable to had the car back - they will do ANYTHING!!! to make money off you!!! They have no soul and dont care! make sure you do everything right, everything in writting (recorded delivery) To date even now after 6 years i have a default of £8000 on my credit report from welcome that I am still trying to get off - I made them take the car back eventually - but they still persued the money with mega intrest and charges on top - I pretty much told them to Feak off and contacted a lawyer - they decided not to go to court over it so have never persued me for the money - but refuse to take it off my credit report!

 

Anyone reading this - stay well clear of welcome!

 

And if anyone has any ideas how I can get this default off my credit report (defaulted March 2005) I live in Scotland - please feel free to offer some guidance. I am in the middle of writing a request for Consumer Credit Act 1974, to see if there is anything here I can use.

 

God luck Mattes - dont let them get to you!

Thanks.

Mattes, going to do a summary for you then from this we can work out which direction you wish to take with your account.

 

1) You received a letter on the 22nd Jan saying your hire purchase account has now been terminated and the full balance of the account is now payable, however this letter was not a legal document but a letter sent to scare you as headed "without predjudice" . . it is not a termination document....

 

2) You purchased the car in April 2008 and in December 2009 you received a default notice (the default notice did not have a numerical date so legally it will not old up) you stated you can pay 100 last week and 100 this week and your monthly payments are 253 a month. You also state you do not want to lose your car.

 

3) as per below working out the agreement does check out as being correct and justified.

 

4) You had previous agreement that started 06/04/2008 and resigned agreement on 24/04/2008 because you cancelled and claimed back PPI .

Lets look at this agreement...

 

 

amount of loan £8174 over 4 years at 19.85 % apr

 

48 monthly payments of £241.15

interest charge will be £3401.50

total amount payable will be £11575.50

 

GAP £420

 

48 monthly payments of £12.39

interest of £174.77

totally amount payable £594.77

 

so interest for car is £3401.50

so interest for insurance £ 174.77

 

total interest of £3576.27

 

so the total amount payable is

 

Loan £8174

interst £ 3401.50

Total £11575.50

 

insurance total £420

interest total £ 174.77

total £ 594.77

 

add loan £11575.50

insurance £594.77

 

total amount payable £12,170.27 add the £1 option fee gives

£12,171.27

 

divide by 48 months gives a monthly figure of £253.56 (your agreement does check out )

5) Post is doing you letter as I think he has somthing up his sleeve for welcome regarding your account so hopefully this post will help him as all info in one place.

Too be honest Mattes im going to leave these questions for somone else more experienced as I am not that clued up on HP car loans and how each one of the above scenarios could play out.

If you are sure you want to terminate rather than them repossess on a defective default notice and drop themselves in a whole heap of trouble then i would suggest maybe writing to them and checking that the figure they require is equal to 3 payments as you may get a nasty shock and find it is more. Im happy to have a go at a letter for you in that respect if you are in a rush to get it gone if not await postggj's return and he will do a letter in respect of what he found wrong with the account. totally up to you

Your idea is quiet good, so could you write some letter for me to send to WF please?

Because as you seen i had few problems with them and my big problem is i lost £2000! for trade in my old good car because they paid me only £1!!!

And i want this money back because they know im foreign when i was in Edinburgh showroom and the sales man told me i can get the car only at day when i was in, because i told him im not sure of i really want the car from them so he never even give me half hour to go thru all documents and check them. He give me about 20 documents for sign so never had time read them properly, i know its my fault but im not happy with this m8....

I know what I would do but you have to decide what you want to do the way I see it is:

you can either:

1. terminate and no doubt end up with debt hanging over you and no car

2. wait and see what their next move is and deal with them when they make it if they repossess on the default notice they sent you its called unlawful recession of contract and you can take them to court

 

**please if im wrong someone correct me!**

But i never received any repo letter from them!!! Only letter last week which is on 1st message here m8.

they 'shouldnt' repossess on that default but that doesnt mean they wont and the fact that you have received no notice of repossession i believe is again against guidance the point is if they take the car on the back of that defective default they have created a whole load of trouble for themselves should they take you to court or you take them to court. Im going to have another read of your thread now. Did the covering letter of the default notice have without prejudice on it as that again is in your favour...

 

It is my belief that if they repo on that notice you will get all money paid returned + 8% interest plus car of same value and mileage as the one they took due to unlawful recession of contract.

 

Im going to have another read of your thread now...

Default notice letter DONT have 'without prejudice'... Letter 'without prejudice' came to me this tuesday so if u want i can scan this letter and post it now for you, so you can check what is it...

In default notice letter i been told here by postggj is wrong the date in sentence: to remedy breach you must pay to us the total arrears of £ within fourteen (14) days.

I been told because its not specified there date where is 14 days so then this default notice is not valid, is it right???

You can find scan of default notice on 1st page here.
