    • Your point 4 deals with that and puts them to strict proof .....but realistically they are not in a position to state that within their particulars they were not the creditor at the time of default but naturally assume the OC would have...so always worth challenging and if you get a DJ who knows his onions on the day may ask for further evidence from the OC internal accounts system. 
    • I see, shame, I think if a claim is 'someone was served' then proof of that should be mandatory. Appreciate your input into the WS whenever you get chance, thanks in advance
    • Paper trail off the original creditor often confirms the default and issue of a notice...not having or being able to disclose the actual copy or being able to produce a copy less so. Creditors are not compelled to keep copies of the actual default notice so you will in most cases get a reconstituted version but must contain accurate figures/dates/format.     .    
    • Including Default Notice Andy? Ok, I think this is the best I can do.. it all makes sense with references to their WS. They have included exhibits that dates don't match the WS about them, small but still.. if you're going to reference letters giving dates, then the exhibits should be correct, no? I know I redacted them too much, but one of the dates differs to the WS by a few months. 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. 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 24/12/2022. 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 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.

    • 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

Does any paperwork in their SAR show that you owe any money?

Please itemise the paperwork and call sheets and screen shots they sent. It may be that they have missed some thing and perhaps a critical to your case something [which is why they didn't send it]. did they send the contract you signed? Did they also include their Terms and Conditions? if ro

 

I take it you did have an account with them or you wouldn't be stressing. So can you see anything that might lead them to think you owe them and is there some thing you can see or know to reject their claim.

Hi

 

I just want to understand your situation:

 

1. Orange claim you had a mobile contract with them, though you know nothing about it. Have you at any time ever had a mobile phone from Orange?

 

2. You state the debt is from 2004. Would you know the exact date?

 

3. You sent a Subject Access Request to Arrow. When was this sent? Did you send it recorded or similar? Have you any proof of posting?

 

4. Bryan Carter got involved and started court proceedings? Did they issue a County Court Summons? If so I presume you sent a defence as you say you defended.

 

5. Did the case get to court? If so what was the date?

 

6. If the case did not get as far as a court presumably your defence or some other document prompted the judge to issue an order? Please clarify what happened. If it was a written order did it specifically say Bryan Carter had to comply with the SAR or was it Arrow that had to comply?

 

7. You say Bryan Carter has sent you a letter with a statement from Orange. Could you make a copy of it, remove personal details from the copy and post it up here? Does it have any of your personal details on it?

 

8. The statement is for a greater amount than Bryan Carter has asked for in their court claim. Are they now asking for more than the court claim?

 

9. You seem to be saying Bryan Carter are giving you ten days to pay or they will proceed with court action. However, you also say the court has instructed BC to comply with an order. I am just trying to understand who is controlling the pace of events. Is it BC or the court?

 

10. How much is the claim for excluding costs?

 

Your answers to the above questions will help everybody on here to better understand your situation.

 

My initial thoughts, not being familiar with either Bryan Carter or your paperwork is that if the judge has asked them to comply with your SAR and you have received nothing but the statement then BC (or Arrow) have not complied with the SAR as they would undoubtedly have to supply you with much more information such as customer care logs, and other material.

 

Also, they have not supplied a copy of the original contract (though you probably have not asked for it either).

 

I think once you have provided the answers above, there will be a lot more questions from myself and other CAGers so we understand your situation. As you have ten days there is no need for immediate panic.

 

Wait for some other CAGers to come on here and offer advice before you do anything.

 

Good Luck.

1.I have used orange before but along time ago i thought i was all payed off

 

2.The account started on the 23rd sep 2004

 

3.I sent a SAR to arrow months ago but no reply then i started getting letters from Frederickson's International and lots of phone calls the phone calls stopped then it was Bryan Carter so i sent them a SAR No reply then i got a court summons of which i defended and also sent another SAR to Bryan carter but this time recorded.

 

The Court gave me a reply dated 12/01/10 saying BC had 28 days to reply to my defence.

 

I also got a letter from BC dated 14/01/10 saying my account was on hold untill further instructions from their client.

 

I have contacted the court and BC have not replyed to them yet but they have me with a lett

Forgive me if I clarify the main points:

 

1. Bryan Carter issued a County court summons.

 

2. You filed a defence. Your defence was that they had not replied to your Subject Access Request for information?

 

3. You sent BC another SAR this time recorded.

 

4. The court gave BC 28 days to provide you with the data requested which expired on 9th February.

 

5. On the 11th February, 2 days after BC should have replied they sent you the statement saying that was all they had on file.

 

6. They say you must contact them by 21st February and offer a payment plan or they will proceed with court action.

 

7. They are claiming a total of £570.14 including court costs, which is less than the statement figure of £741.54

 

Assuming the above is an accurate summary then:

 

1. We need some other CAGers to come on here and help with some ideas to defend this.

 

2. I would think BC need as a minimum the original agreement you signed with Orange.

 

3. Additionally, I am not sure if what they have is enough by itself to secure a court victory for themselves. We need other experienced CAGers.

 

4. In a situation where a County Court summons has been issued it is normal to ask the opposing party for the documents they will rely upon in court rather than send a SAR (though it does no harm in itself as it can sometimes reveal useful material). You therefore need to follow the usual processes of any dispute and ask for their evidence. If they don't provide it you can then enter what is known as an embarrassed defence which means you don't have the information to defend.

 

The normal processes can be a bit intimidating if you don't know what you are doing and I don't as I have never had to do them.

 

I say at this point wait for 48 hours to see who comes on to offer some advice. If none is forthcoming I would write to BC and ask them for all documentation they intend to rely upon in court for their claim. There is a template on here for that but wait to see if we get a more expert CAGer to take you through that as I have never needed to do it myself.

Not sure that it was worth a tenner to SAR BC since they would not have built up much about you in the short time of dealing with you. Also they can claim

client privilege between Orange and themselves. Nevertheless, I would be surprised if that is all they have on you. I would write back to BC putting them to strict proof that they have included everything you are entitled to under the SAR and pointing out that they will be aware it is a serious offence not to comply fully.

 

Do you know who owns the alleged debt? I feel that it should have been

Orange that you sent the SAR to as they would be obliged to send you the agreement, the T&Cs , a financial statement and whatever correspondence that had with you for the recovery of the alleged debt.

Hi

 

To cut a long story short i have had problems with ARROW GLOBAL/FREDERICKSONS & then BRYAN CARTER.....

 

Carter issued court proceedings against me for an alledged ORANGE MOBILE DEBT..

 

I contested the debt through court and asked for an SAR. Carter never replied to the court but he replied to me and all he provided was a orange mobile bill and said that was all he had and i had to pay within 10 days or he would proceed with court..

I told him to shove it and stick it up his arse and that i would see him in court....

 

Just today i contacted the court and they told me CARTER NEVER REPLIED within the time allowed so the court proceedings are now stayed...

 

1. Does anyone think he will apply to the court to lift the stay.

 

2.As he has not proceeded in court does that mean i can get the default ARROW GLOBAL listed with the CRA (Thats right its listed with a CRA as a default i know nothing about this bloody debt....

 

If anyone could help that would be great...

Different things.

 

The SAR request should be served on Orange payng the appropriate fee, not anyone else. I'm surprised the action was stayed, if the pursuer doesn't turn up (and you were there) you could ask the judge to dismiss. As it stands, he can re-awaken it at any time.

 

Lastly, the CRA default reflects what Orange placed on your file. If you have no recollection of ever having a mobile from them, it is to them you need to contact for the substantiation (the SAR is the best way). and once it is established it has nothing to do with you, Orange will have to remove it from your file.

Hi

 

Let me re word this a little bit sorry i was not very clear i had already asked the DCA for a subject access request and they never replied and after that BRYAN CARTER started court proceedings.

 

So i contested the debt and wrote back to the court saying i have no knowledge of the debt and that i had previosly asked the DCA for a SAR and i felt the claim was in dispute.

 

I also told the court that i had sent another SAR to BRYAN CARTER this time and that i sent it recorded delivery the court wrote back and said they passed my defence to BRYAN CARTER and that they had to reply within the time limit they never did reply to to court but did make more money demands from me hence why it was stayed..

 

As to the default the name on the default shows arrow global not orange..

 

Who do i write to..

as advised you need to SAR orange.

that will give you ALL the facts that these leechers are relying upon.

 

then take things from there.

 

pers, i'd write to the court,

clearly stating that BC have [still] failed the SAR in your eyes, and you are sending a new SAR to orange to get to the bottom of the debt & also to gather the info to remove false information placed on your credit file by arroe global as it is not your debt

 

i would also ask about how you might seek compensation when you prove the debt is not yours

As dx notes - this is a matter for Orange, nobody else. When you requested your two SAR's (that were never supplied), had you paid for them? If not - you cannot complain. If you did, that;s a breach and a complaint to the ICO is required, as they only have 40 days to comply.

 

Next. Arrow have no right to Default you - UNLESS you entered into a separate arrangement with them. Orange could (as their agreement does allow them to) but as you did not give Arrow or anyone else associated with this permission OTHER than Orange, you need to remind them that they have broken the terms of the DPA and you call upon them to remove the default forthwith, and certainly no later than 28 days from receipt of your letter. If this is not done, you will raise a formal complaint with the ICO to force its removal.

 

 

So - start at the top with Orange to get the information you require, and if it doesn't make any sense, or there are errors, you address them here. THis won;t ensure any default removal (as they didn't place any), but it can improve any pre-default erroneous data.

Hi

 

Thankyou for all the advice everybody but i have now recieved notice from BRYAN CARTER that all legal proceeding have been withdrawn and the claim has been returned to the client ARROW GLOBAL..

 

I have also been in contact with the cra and they have agreed with me if they can not prove the debt is mine nor neither provide me with the SAR as requested they ARROW GLOBAL can not prove i gave permission to share my data with the CRA.

 

The CRA is contacting ARROW TO ask for the information in question and if they cant they say they have to remove the default..

 

Does this info sound about right do i need to do anything else should i also sent a letter to arrow if so what is the best template to use...

You've got it covered. There's little point in contacting Arrow - they are not your friend, and if they wish to contact you, they know how.

 

Let the CRA seek its information and push them for removal of any adverse data once a reasonable timeframe has elapsed.

Thanks Buzby..

 

I will sit tight and wait for a reply...

 

On to the next one..

 

I have another default on my file made by WELCOME FINANCE..

 

The debt was passed on to HILLESDEN SECURITIES..I am aware of the debt and admit it was mine but i have not heard anything from them neither did i get any letters..

 

The debt started on 17/01/2003 the amount was for nearly £4000

Upon Receiving a copy of my credit file i noticed it had defaulted i contacted Hillesden and sent them a letter saying the debt was STATUDE BARRED...

 

They agreed with me and said the Account was now closed and that nobody would be contacting me from now on...

 

Question can this default be removed from the CRA as the account is now closed.....

Link to post
Share on other sites

I wish!

 

No. The default is seen as a statement of fact, so irrespective of the account (unless it is incorrect) it will stay on your file for the proscribed term. Now, if the agreement is Statute Barred you should be getting close to where the default will itself be time barred (same 6 year period), so bear this in mind.
