    • Hi. Welcome to CAG. How was the car purchased?  
    • Absolutely for the agreement they are referring to.... puts them on notice that this is going to be a uphill fight.   Andy 
    • Particular's of claim for reference only 1. the claim is for the sum of £6163.61due by the defendant under an agreement regulated by the consumer credit act 1974 for hsbc uk bank plc. Account (16 digits) 2. The defendant failed to maintain contractual payments required by the agreement and a default notice was served under s 87(1)  of the consumer credit act 1974 which as not been compiled with. 3. The debt was legally assigned to the Claimant on 23/08/23, notice on which as been given to the defendant.  4. The claim includes statutory interest under S.69 of the county courts act 1984 at a rate of 8% per annum from the date of assignment to the date of issue of these proceedings in the sum of £117.53 the Claimant claims the sum of £6281.14. Suggested defence 1. The Defendant contends the particulars of the claim are generic in nature. The Defendant accordingly sets out its case below and relies on CPR r 16.3 (3) in relation to any particular allegation to which a specific response has not been made. 2. The claimant has not complied with paragraph 3 of the PAPDC (Pre action protocol) failed to serve a letter of claim pre claim pursuant to PAPDC changes of the 1st of October 2017. It is respectfully requested that the court take this into consideration pursuant 7.1 PAPDC. 3. Paragraph 1 is noted. I have in the past had financial dealings but do not recognise this specific account number or recollect any outstanding debt and have therefore requested clarification. 4. Paragraph 2 is denied. I have not been served with a default notice pursuant to the consumer credit act 1974. 5. Paragraph 3 is denied. i am unaware of any legal assignment or notice of assignment. A copy of assignment was sent by Overdales solicitors when acknowledgement of receipt of CPR request was received, but this was not the original.   6. Paragraph 4 is denied. Neither the original creditor or the assignee have served notice pursuant to sec86c of the Credit Consumer Act 1974 Notice of Sums in Arrears and therefore prevented from charging interest on debt regulated by the CCA1974. 7. The defendant submitted a request for a copy of the alleged agreement pursuant to s78 CCA 1974. The claimant has acknowledged receipt of request but has failed to comply. The claimant has failed to provide any evidence of balance or Default Notice requested by CPR 31.14 8. It is therefore denied with regards to defendant owing any monies to the claimant. therefore the claimant is put to strict proof to:  a.  Show how the defendant has entered into an agreement with HSBC. b.  Show and evidence the nature of breach and service of a Default notice pursuant to section 87 (1) CCA 1974. c.  Show and quantify how the defendant has reached the amount claimed for. d.  Show how the claimant has the legal right, either under statute or equity  to issue a claim. 8.  As per civil procedure rule 16.5 (4) it is expected claimant prove the allegation that the money is owed. 9.  Until such time the claimant can comply to a section 78 request he is not entitled, while the default continues, to enforce the agreement 10. By reasons of the facts and matters set out above, it is denied that the claimant is entitled to the relief claimed or any relief.     .
    • OK, well rereading the court orders from March, in the cold light of day rather than when knackered late at night, it is quite clear that on 25 June there will only be a preliminary hearing about Laura representing her son.  Nothing more. It's lazy DCBL who haven't read things properly and have stupidly sent their Witness Statement early. Laura & I had already been working on a WS, and here it is.  It needs tweaking now after reading the rubbish that DCBL sent and after all of LFI's comments.  But the "meat" is there.

    • Morning, I purchased a car from Big Motoring World on 10th December 2023 for £14899.00. On the 15th December I had a problem with the auto start stop function of the car in which the car would stop in the middle of the road with a stop start error message. I called the big assist and the car was booked in for February. The BMW was with them for a week and it came back with the auto stop start feature all fine and all error codes cleared on the report from big motoring world. within 5 days I had the same issue. Warning light coming on and the car stopping. I called big assist again and the car was again booked in for an other repair in May. Car was taken back in may, they had the car for a week and returned with the report saying no issue with the auto stop start feature and blamed my driving. Within 5 days of having the car back it broke down again. This time undrivable. I had the rac pick my car up and take to Stephen James BMW for a full diagnostic. The diagnostic came back with the car needing a new fuel system as magnetic swarf was found.  I have sent big motoring world a letter stating all the issues and that under the consumer rights act 2015 I have asked for a replacement vehicle. all reports from Stephen James BMW have been sent over to big motoring world. Big motoring world have come back and said they will respond to my complaint within 14 days for the date of my complaint letter. I am not feeling confident on the response from them, what are my next steps?   Thanks in advance.

    • 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 would send Westsnot this http://www.consumeractiongroup.co.uk/resources/templates-library/86-debt-collectors/585-letter-following-up-after-a-debt-collection-agency-has-closed-its-files-

 

Unless anyone else has other opinions?

 

And to think your first thought was to go BR:shock:

 

See what happens when you learn your rights and begin hitting them head on!

 

Well done,;)

Who ever heard of someone getting a job at the Jobcentre? The unemployed are sent there as penance for their sins, not to help them find work!

okay, received another letter from Lowell stating 'we are in receipt of correspondance,' and 'your account has been placed on hold,' and 'There is no need,, to write to us again regarding this matter.' I'm guessing this is a 'we don't have the paperwork we need' letter and I intend to send the failure to supply letter anyway..?

also 2 queries; does it matter at all that public holidays meant that the letter posted on the 30th reached them on the 3rd, i'm guessing not it's 12+2 days from the 30th right?

2nd It seems both this letter (failure to supply on CCA request) and the 'after account closed' letters are quite in your face, am a bit worried about that, just want my credit score back as peacefully as poss thank u ..?

So i can hit the original creditor, in this case cap 1, for SAR for any charges levied on the acc? I know this is branching into different teritory here but, since the OFT test case what's the coo, are any charges still classed as unlawful, can i claim them back from a cc acc?

Okay, thanks all once m ore for your support, couldn't do this without you.

;)

 

So far no credit file has arrived, Experian no response and equifax 2 seperate requests to confirm my new address... only sent call credit last week so,, that's okay. any advice on an appropriate way to chase my credit file at experian..?

 

have sent a default letter today to Lowell concerning the Cap 1 debt. Am thinking I will chase Cap 1 for charges to be repaid. ( I had some luck with reclaiming abbey charges 3 years ago b4 the test case etc..)

 

If they don't respond is it likely they'll remove entries on my credit file, can i force them ? If the debt is in default, which it now is, hooray! and they cannot sell it on or claim on it,, what happens next..??

 

thanks all again... the journey continues but am excited now instead of lost..

Can only advise being persistant with experian.

 

You can go either way on the crap 1 account. Claim your charges back OR go the unenforceable/non compliance of CCA route. It's impossible to call anything yet on this as you only just notified lowlife that you consider them to be defaulting on your CCA request. Do you have any idea of how much unfair charges could be on the account? if you don't have a full set of statements etc. you should SAR crap 1 as soon as you decide which way :)

it is highly unlikely they will remove defaults from credit file..as to can you force them? well you could initiate court action yourself..the problem is..is that although the debts are unenforceable because of the paperwork this doesnt mean they dont exist...and stopping them trashing your file is difficult....they will eventually drop off after 6 years anyway...

i'll look into my statements and add up the charges, this will take a while cos theyre in boxes..

Need that credit file...:confused: so i can see who has defaulted my file in the past and when. and when they might stop affecting things..

 

So a debt may just stay around until 6 years old?

also if a DCA commits an offence what does it mean..?

Sadly, due to the implementation of the CPUTR 2008 in to UK law, the criminal offence no longer applies to non compliance of a CCA request :(

 

The breach of OFT guidlines and the CPUTR that the DCA/OC commit if they fail to furnish within the 12 + 2 working day timescale should at all times be reported to TS, the OFT your MP and anyone else you think should know, if they recommence collection activity :D

so basically, they've failed to provide a CCA within the 12 + 2 working days. I've notified them that the account is in default which means it will stay with them but they cannot chase me for it. Nor can they default my credit file any further. So is that it,??

basically thats is it..you are now safe in the knowledge they cannot enforce said debt..take court action etc etc..but they can default your credit file...remember unenforceability does not mean debt doesnt exist...it does..it is just unenforceable

  • 2 weeks later...

hello everybody, new developments ,,,

the 2 summits of my mountain are owned by lowell, an old 2005 cap 1 cc, and, capquest an 11grand loan.

 

the first, lowell's is now in default and i received a letter last week stating that they haven't received a cca from cap 1 but that cap1 are looking for it 'retreiving the paperwork,' and once they Lowell receive it they'll post me a copy and want payment in full. So can they do that.?

 

secondly, i have asked capquest for a cca, they go into default today and they're letter states 'we can confirm we are in receipt of the' cca and 'in accordance with the data protection Act 1998' require me to contact them to confirm 'important security information. We will be unable to send' ..'until you have doen this.'

 

Do I call i'm not into telephone calls and will not undersign a debt by giving my date of birth to these guys, but do they have a legal standpoint here?

 

thankyou as always..

they nearly always state that once they have found cca they require full payment...well what they want and what they get are 2 different things...this is sent in order to frighten and worry you..accept it for what it is just another one of their boring threatograms...capquest were happy to harrass you when they believed you were the debtor..yet want more info before sending the cca...wait for time limit to be up and then put account into default...end of...dont ring em..and no they dont have a legal standpoint here...there is a letter on here telling them they were happy to deal with you before you asked for cca..so why not now..ignore em..send in dispute letter after deadline
