    • Is all of this actually on the signage? Don't remember seeing that much detail on other threads.
    • If I have learnt one thing from this forum, it's not to call and communicate via email. I passed this info on to her and they are pushing for her to call them.    "Unfortunately, you will need to call us. The conversation won’t be so black and white as to therefore type over email. In a nutshell we can confirm that the request to not pay for 3 months we cannot put in place"  I emailed them back on her behalf and said that what ever is discussed over the phone will need to be put in an email so that she can review it properly. No decisions will be made on that phone call.    "Once we speak to you on the phone we will follow up with an email to confirm the options discussed. [Phone number]"   Why are they pushing for a phone call? If its not so black and white, why can they then follow up with an email?  
    • Appreciate input Andy, updated: IN THE ******** County Court Claim No. [***] BETWEEN: LC Asset 2 S.A.R.L CLAIMANT AND [***] DEFENDANT ************ _________________________ ________ WITNESS STATEMENT OF [***] _________________________ ________ I, [***], being the Defendant in this case will state as follows;     I make this Witness Statement in support of my defence in this claim.   1. 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 written off as a capital loss and claimed against taxable income as confirmed in the claimant’s witness statement exhibit by way of the Deed of Assignment. 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. 2. The Claim relates to an alleged Credit Card agreement between the Defendant and Bank of Scotland plc. Save insofar of any admittance it is accepted that the Defendant has had contractual agreements with Bank of Scotland plc in the past, the Defendant is unaware as to what alleged debt the Claimant refers. The Defendant has not entered any contract with the Claimant. 3. The Defendant requested a copy of the CCA on the 24/12/2022 along with the standard fee of £1.00 postal order, to which the defendant received a reply from the Claimant dated 06/02/2023. To this date, the Claimant has failed to disclose a valid agreement and proof as per their claim that this is enforceable, that Default Notice and Notice of Assignment were sent to and received by the Defendant, on which their claim relies. The Claimant is put to strict proof to verify and confirm that the exhibit *** is a true copy of the agreement and are the true Terms and Conditions as issued at the time of inception of the online application and execution of the agreement. 4. Point 3 is noted. The Claimant pleads that a default notice has been served upon the defendant as evidenced by Exhibit [***]. The claimant is put to strict proof to verify the service of the above in accordance with s136 and s196 Law of Property Act 1925. 5. Point 6 is noted and disputed. The Defendant cannot recall ever having received the notice of assignment as evidenced in the exhibit marked ***. The claimant is put to strict proof to verify the service of the above in accordance with s136 and s196 Law of Property Act 1925. 6. Point 11 is noted and disputed. See 3. 7. Point 12 is noted, the Defendant doesn’t recall receiving contact where documentation is provided as per the Claimants obligations under CCA. In addition, the Claimant pleads letters were sent on dates given, yet those are not the letters evidenced in their exhibits *** 8. Point 13 is noted and denied. Claimant is put to strict proof to prove allegations. 9. The Claimant did not provide a true copy of the CCA in response to the Defendants request of 21/12/2022. The Claimant further claims that the documents are sufficient to pursue a Judgement and are therefore copies of original documents in their possession. Conclusion 10. Without the Claimant providing a valid true copy of the executed Credit agreement that complies with the CCA, the Claimant has no grounds on which to enforce this alleged debt. 11. The Claimant has been unjustly enriched at the expense of the Defendant by purchasing bulk debt at a greatly reduced cost and subrogating for the original creditor in trying to recuperate the full amount of the original debt 12. The Defendant was not given ample evidence to prove the debt and therefore was not required to enter settlement negotiations. Should the debt be proved in the future, the Defendant is willing to enter such negotiations with the Claimant. On receipt of this claim I could not recall the precise details of the agreement or any debt and sought clarity from the claimant by way of a Section 78 request. The Claimant failed to comply. I can only assume as this was due to the Claimant not having any enforceable documentation and issuing a claim in hope of an undefended default judgment.   Statement of Truth I, ********, the Defendant, believe the facts stated within this Witness Statement to be 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 it’s truth. Signed: _________________________ _______ Dated: _____________________
    • Morning,  I am hoping someone can help, I am posting on behalf of my friend so I will try and provide as much info as possible.  Due health reasons, she is currently not working and unable to pay her contractual car finance payments. She emailed 247 Money and asked for a 3 month payment holiday, they refused this straight away with no reasons as to why. They have told her that instead she can make a payment of £200. She is currently getting £400+ a month ssp so this is not acceptable. She went back to them and explained she cannot make this payment and they have not offered an alternative plan. Its £200 or she falls into default.  She is now panicking as she does not want her car to be taken away. What options does she have?  Thank you,

    • 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.

Evening all,

I received a letter today from Capstone saying my debt is being passed on to a debt collection agency and I should await their letter. My mortgage shortfall is a whopping 55K!!

 

In Nov 2007 our house was repossessed. It had recently been remortgaged at 75k with a valuation of 93k. It sold in June 2009 for 50k.

 

Where the hell has the 55k come from??

What do I do now?

I rent a house, have no savings, a baby on the way in 4 weeks, a 10 year old car, living on the breadline as it is? Do you think there is any way to avoid bankruptcy? I can afford about £30 a month to pay back but I'll be paying it for the next 100 years !!

 

Any advice would be massively appreciated!

Just on another note, they got my current address wrong, it was sent next door??

Hi

 

You need to write to them and ask for a full statement of the sale with a complete breakdown of how the 55k has been made up.

 

Do not acknowledge the debt but insist on them providing a breakdown. They should of provided this at the time.

 

This may be of help

 

Debt Factsheets - Mortgage Shortfalls

It's incredible I know, I have almost £200k in mortgage shortfalls from the theft and then sale of 2 properties by the Banksters.

 

The fact they sold them for Penny's on the pound really makes me wonder how the hell they can run a business doing that. In fact, if they really did lend the amount they claimed to have done and have lost that amount off their accounting then why would they sell the properties for penny's on the pound?

 

The simple answer is this;

 

They did not ever lend you a bean. Not a sausage either. And no im not trying to be funny, im dam right serious and people need to wake-up before the Banks have us all out in the streets.

 

Am I challeging them on their fraudulent claim? Too right I am. Have they committed Fraud, too right they have.

 

I am really sorry you are facing this shortfall but if people don't wake-up as to how this all happens and the real crime being committed by the Banks, then we will continue to suffer at their hands and so will our children and childrens children :(

Come on then, I'm intrigued.

 

How did they never "lend you a bean"?

 

I think you need to be careful about bandying about comments like theft and fraud with no good evidence to back this up...

Oh I have got the evidence, would love them to prove they haven't committed Fraud and theft. That would be very interesting in deed.

 

How did they never lend a bean (or a sausage)? Well it will depend how trapped in the system you are as to whether or not you are willing to review the evidence. Like you point out, it's not something that should be said lightly is it?

 

OK. I will start with one simple thing, what is the definition of real 'Money'? Please check the things out I say and decide for yourself but what I will say is that hundreds and hundreds of people in the UK are now seeing this as the truth and the evidence gathers pace.

 

Look at a UK Bank Note, it says on the front 'I Promise to Pay', have you ever wondered what that really means? I mean really ,means?

 

Now you may already know that it means its a 'promissory note' or in other words an IOU. The so called 'money' in your pocket is all promissory notes and we are all passing around a 'promise to pay' or 'IOU's' It is 'Fiat Currency' it has nothing of substance to back it up like it used to have up until the 'Gold Standard Act 1931'. Please check the defintion of 'Fiat Currency'. There are some serious questions need answering by the Banks about this believe me and I can tell you why.

 

Want to know a lot more?

 

Im serious when I tell you about my shortfall but they won't get away with it now I know the truth.

C'mon guys, how is this helping Laticmad?

The poor guy is in trouble and so you two wittering on about securitisation etc is of absolutely no help at all.

 

Laticmad, why did it take so long for the bank to sell the property? I take it that the house was sold at auction? had it failed to sell at auction on earlier occasions. If it did was that because previous valuations were too high? Had higher bids than £50,000 been offered at previous auctions?

 

If it was not offered at auction before-why not? had it been sold in 2007 it would probably have sold at a higher price. Thus suggesting that the bank was negligent in not disposing of it earlier.

LOL, have to adjust my tin foil hat for that one and tune in to the base station on Mars and come back to you.

 

OK, you see the 'conspiracy' label has been very convienient for the lenders to use so that you will not look too closely at what I am saying. That is up to you but I too was in your very cautious shoes not too long ago but I decided I had nothing to lose by doing so.

 

Having said that I am only giving you the facts and truth am I not. UK Bank Notes say 'I promise to Pay' do they not? UK Bank Notes used to be backed by Gold & Silver, did it not? In fact the term UK Pounds Sterling comes from the very fact that it was worth Silver at a point in History.

 

If you checked the definition of real 'Money' you will see that to be called 'Money' it has to be substance based with something like Gold.

 

The UK sold all our Gold to pay for debts in the 1930's which is why it could not use Gold any longer. In fact the UK itself went into Bankruptcy but they have kept this fact from the public. They operate in Bankruptcy where they are allowed to continue 'trading' but must continuously re-schedule their 'debts' to the satisfaction of their 'Creditors'. Their Creditors being the Banks.

 

They then replaced real money with 'Fiat Currency' which is backed by? Oh yes, nothing whatsoever apart from the sweat equity of the UK people.

 

If you didn't know by the way, the Bank of England is a Private Company with undisclosed shareholders. The show the Govt put on in 1946 saying that the BoE is now a public Bank has been totally proven to be wrong and misleading. They did a one 2 one Stick swap, the BoE is a private Bank.

 

The USA lost all its Gold in 1933 by the way, as did Canada, Australia and others around the same time period.

 

So, the new Central Banks then start printing 'Fiat Currency', this fiat currency is a private currency being printed by private Banks and in fairness might as well be Monopoly money or bottle tops. The only value it has is perceived value of the people, other than that, nothing at-all.

 

So if you think that the facts I have just explained about Money are Mad, then please do tell me how because I don't want to continue and tell you how you have been de-frauded if you can't see how real money is not in circulation anymore.

 

But, up 2 you because many of us are using different strategies with this in mind and saving houses from repo and keeping lenders off our back as we chase them for the fraud. Or, maybe thats all in my imagination :)

 

Namaste

In fairness lookforinfo, I too am almost £200k in alleged shortfall to the Banks, I am trying to offer help in the best way I have found.

 

The Banks will sell the property whenever they want, they will walk all over people and that is more than apparant. There is no harm at looking into the fraud aspect of what the Banks have done whilst trying to get advice about the shortfall from elsewhere at the same time. I too have been confronted with this dilemma.

I dont say its mad neccessarily - the gold standard went some time ago.

 

I want you to clarify the leap from that standard position to theft and fraud.

Terrytocs,I did note that you said that you had lost almost £200,000 in mortgage shortfalls and I am sorry for you. But I saw nothing in any of your posts that would help Laticmad. And further hijacking of his/her thread is also not helping.

Now if you can come up with anything practical to help, fire away, but please, securitisation will not help.

Thanks for your replies (I think) lol.

The house was repossessed in Nov 2007 and resold in June 2009 through the estate agent. Capstone rang me on my land line last saturday and asked how I intended to pay the 55k? I said I had never received the letter (as it had next doors address on the front). He asked me for my address and I said "you tell me"! Then he said he'd write to me again with a welcome pack (gee thanks). So far, not had anything.

Hi Laticmad-sorry I got your sex wrong on an earlier post!

The advice is to start at the beginning. If you don't mind them knowing your actual address, send them a CCA request a long with £1 postal order. Do not sign the letter and send it recorded delivery.

 

If finances allow, also send them an SAR along with £10 postal order. Send it in the same letter as the CCA request if you can. Then sit back and wait to see what they send you. Until they comply with your CCA request they shouldn't take you to Court. Their paperwork should reveal how they arrived at such a large debt. There may be a question of negligence on behalf of the mortgage company selling it for so much less than the valuation. Not sure they should have sold it at that price. They still have a duty to act in your best interest when selling your proiperty.

You can still Sar them of course. You canask them for a financial breakdown as well. IE where all the money went to. Payments and commissions to DCAs, auctioneers, brokers etc etc-how much and why they were paid as well as

a breakdown of charges incurred. I expect some will be unlawful.

 

Did you have a Mortgage protection Policy to cover shortfalls? Did it pay out-and how much? I keep on feeling there is some sort of unfairness with MIGs where you have to pay for one but the Mortgage company get the benefit and can still leave you out of pocket.

 

I expect you will shoot me down now and say you had an endowment backed mortgage.
