    • Thank you for your reply, DX! I was not under the impression that paying it off would remove it from my file. My file is already trashed so it would make very little difference to any credit score. I am not certain if I can claim compensation for a damaged credit score though. Or for them reporting incorrect information for over 10 years? The original debt has been reported since 2013 as an EE debt even though they had sold it in 2014. It appears to be a breach of the Data Protection Act 1998 Section 13 and this all should have come to a head when I paid the £69 in September 2022, or so I thought. The £69 was in addition to the original outstanding balance and not sent to a DCA. Even if I had paid the full balance demanded by the DCA back in 2014 then the £69 would still have been outstanding with EE. If it turns out I have no claim then so be it. Sometimes there's not always a claim if there's blame. The CRA's will not give any reason for not removing it. They simply say it is not their information and refer me to EE. More to the point EE had my updated details since 2022 yet failed to contact me. I have been present on the electoral roll since 2012 so was traceable and I think EE have been negligent in reporting an account as in payment arrangement when in fact it had been sold to a DCA. In my mind what should have happened was the account should have been defaulted before it was closed and sold to the DCA who would then have made a new entry on my credit file with the correct details. However, a further £69 of charges were applied AFTER it was sent to the DCA and it was left open on EE systems. The account was then being reported twice. Once with EE as open with a payment arrangement for the £69 balance which has continued since 2013 and once with the DCA who reported it as defaulted in 2014 and it subsequently dropped off and was written off by the DCA, LOWELL in 2021. I am quite happy for EE to place a closed account on my credit file, marked as satisfied. However, it is clear to me that them reporting an open account with payment arrangement when the balance is £0 and the original debt has been written off is incorrect? Am I wrong?
    • OMG! I Know! .... someone here with a chance to sue Highview for breach of GDPR with a very good chance of winning, I was excited reading it especially after all the work put in by site members and thinking he could hammer them for £££'s and then, the OP disappeared half way through. Although you never know the reason so all I can say is I hope the OP is alive and well regardless. I'd relish the chance to do them for that if they breached my GDPR.

    • 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 All

 

My friend has a loan out with logbookloans and has fallen behind in payments, I don't think the original loan was for much more than 3000,

LBL are now demanding a payment of 300 by tuesday or they will take the car,my friend is going out of their mind with worry because they know they will not have the money, and does not want to lose the car.

I have read alot here that they should hide the car. Even this scares them.

What would be the procedure what would they say if they came to collect the car, and it was hidden what would LBL then do, and what should my friend do then, just not sure of their rights and the correct procrdure for all this.

Any advice would be appreciated.

 

Thanks

well this is what I would do... (and have done)

 

Firstly... HIDE THE CAR and hide it as far away from the house as possible. If you hide it around the corner they WILL find it and they WILL take it.

 

Then they WILL come round and try and take the car, probably at 2-3 am.

 

The conversation should go something along the lines of this:

 

LBL: Knock Knock,

You: Yeah what do you want at this time of the morning?

LBL: We are authorised by the courts etc etc etc etc and more lies etc to seize your car.

You: Oh ok then....

LBL: Where is it?

You: I've hidden it

LBL: Where?

You: er... well as i've hidden it from you, its a bit pointless in doing that and then telling you where it is, now stop being silly.

LBL: So how are we gonna take it?

You: You tell me...

LBL: but I'm gonna cry if you don't tell me

You: well go get yourself some tissues then..... im off back to bed.

CUE: Close door and go back to bed with a smile on your face.

 

Thats how i envisage it..

 

Or you could simply disengage any conversation with them and tell them quite strongly that if they dont get off your property you will call the police and have them done for trespass, as you KNOW they are not court appointed bailiffs, and you KNOW they have no authority or right in visiting you without your permission, which of course you haven't given. If they refuse to go... call the police and report them as an intruder to your property and you feel there may be a breach of the peace. When the police arrive tell them you are NOT giving them the vehicle and you are under no obligation to do so, or tell them the whereabouts of it, and DEMAND that they are escorted off of your premises.

 

Sometimes the police side with these idiots as they have an official looking document in their hands.. simply tell the police that they are NOT trained in civil law and therefore they do NOT understand that what the recovery agent has is unenforceable. Tell them that if they assist in the recovery agents illegal activity then you will report them to the Chief Superintendent and file a complaint of aiding and abetting in criminal activity against them

 

That usually does it.

 

UKD.
