Remember, the claim will proceed anyway even if you don’t respond. If the claim goes against you, it will be very difficult to make a counter claim as you didn’t respond to the initial small claim.   You may be unaware that you are the defendant in a small claims case that a Creditor has bought against you. When the small claims form arrives follow these initial steps:   1: Read the Form Carefully   The detail about the claim that is being bought against you will be in the ‘particulars of claim’ section. If this section isn't completed, or has the words ‘particulars of claim to follow’ take no action now and wait until you are sent details of the claim against you. You may want to consult a lawyer at this stage.   2: Respond in Time   It’s vitally important that you respond to the claim for you have been sent. Remember that there is a 19 day (5 +14) time limit on this to acknowledge the claim.You must submit before the 19 days are up, so post your response with plenty of time.If your intention is to defend the claim in full you get a further 14 days to submit your response ...so 33 days in total.   3: Talk to the Claimant   Just because a small claim has been bought against you and a claim form issued, this doesn’t mean you are not allowed to contact the claimant directly. In fact the court encourages you to try and settle the claim without the need for a court appearance. So, try and resolve your dispute directly with the claimant if you can.   Not Responding to a Small Claim   If you ignore the small claims form when it arrives this can have an adverse impact on your financial status. The court will continue with the small claims lawsuit that is being bought against you even in your absence as this is a legal requirement. When the small claim is processed you will be sent a bill showing the amount you owe and any additional costs. The small claims against you is a legal process that will be recorded on the Register of Judgements, Orders and Fines. This information is used to check your credit, so could have a negative impact when you next apply for any credit. To avoid damaging your credit rating reply to your small claims docket as soon as you can.   How to Respond to Your Small Claims Form   When you received your form from the court you will also have been sent a response pack. In this pack you will see the option that are open to you. These include:   • A dispute claim form. You can use this form if you do not agree that you are liable for the small claim being bought against you and wish to submit a Defence. • Details about how to pay the amount being claimed from you. • Details about how to admit to part of the small claim against you, and how you can ask the claimant for more time to pay.   There are Two Types of Small Claims:   Fixed Amounts:   If the claim against you is for a fixed amount of money your response pack will contain three forms. Form N9 (acknowledgement of Service), form N9A (admission form) and N9B (defence and counterclaim form).   Unspecified Amounts:   If the amount being claimed is unspecified you will be sent forms N9 and N9C (admission form) and N9D (defence and counterclaim form). It is vital that you read the accompanying explanatory notes before choosing which form to send back.   Paying the Small Claim   If you want to make full payment of the amount being claimed against you this amount will be shown on the claim for you have been sent, and will also have details about where to send the money. Don’t forget, this must be done within the 14 day time limit or your case will proceed to the next stage.   In some instances you would like to pay, but need more time, you can give details about the delay you would like on form N9A, which should be in your response pack. It’s also a good idea to read leaflet EX309: The Defendant Admits by claim as this gives more details on this aspect of your case when fixed amounts of money are involved. Leaflet EX308 gives details of cases when unspecified amounts are being claimed against you.   Also please read forms EX326 and EX160A   How to Defend a Claim Against You   Disputed claims are handled by filling in the appropriate form from your response pack. You have three choices: Form N9, N9B or N9D. Read the note accompanying each form carefully to ensure you completely correctly. Pay special attention to the allegations raised on the form. If you don’t respond to each the court will assume you are admitting guilt.

Not that of the creditor or claimant. If you have requested information with them after the claim has been issued - or have entered into discussion with them and they say something like "We will put this on hold for a period of time". You cannot and must not ignore the timetable from the court.   This thread should serve as an example   http://www.consumeractiongroup.co.uk/forum/showthread.php?416202&p=4547677#post4547677   The OP in the case above was in communication with the CAG Vodafone rep. A claim was issued during this time. The Rep in good faith said he would ask the Claimant to put things on hold.... they did not.. the OP ignored advice from caggers to continue with the court timetable and did not submit a defence. The claimaint obtained a Judgment by default.

    • 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.

Hmmm...anyone out there willing to provide a witness statement in time for Shedder that Barry Davies does NOT respond to 'phone calls and CANNOT be contacted?

Here is a basic witness statement that I have done for you to hand the court, might help the judge make an informed decision.

 

If you contact me by PM, I will provide you with a proper signed version

 

 

 

 

 

WITNESS STATEMENT OF UK26

 

 

I, UK26 of XXXXXXXXX say as follows:

 

I have been involved personally in a previous case with the Capquest Group of Companies. The matters in this witness statement are of my own knowledge from my dealings with Capquest.

 

1) Capquest purchased an alleged debt account from Capital One Bank “Credit Card Account” and was pursuing me for payment of this alleged account. Once I received correspondence from the company “CapQuest Debt Recovery Limited” I requested copy of the alleged credit agreement from Caqquest Debt Recovery Limited, which was provided to me, at some point in time, however on receipt of this, it was discovered that the agreement was unenforceable in law under the consumer credit act 1974. CapQuest also sent me copies of bank statements which listed all the transactions under the alleged account. It was discovered that more then half of the balance of the account consisted of “Over Limit Fees, Late Payment Fees, Default Charges and Payment Protection Insurance”

 

 

2) The charges where discussed with Capquest Debt Recovery Limited, however was not satisfactory addressed by Capquest Debt Recovery and instead of dealing with the matter concerning the dispute, sent a letter advising its intention of issuing a statutory demand within 7 days of the letter.

 

 

3) The agreement did not permit the creditor the right to make default charges on the account as the term required by the consumer credit act 1974 was missing from the agreement. This was recorded in correspondence to Capquest Debt Recovery Limited but was unsatisfactory addressed by Capquest.

 

 

4) Numerous letters where sent to Capquest advising that the agreement was unenforceable and was duly passed to my solicitors Waller Needham & Green to further make Capquest Debt Recovery Limited aware of its unenforceability of the account.

 

 

5) A reply from Barry Davies who is employed as Head of Legal Services at the Capquest Group of Companies sent a reply to my solicitors Waller Needham & Green asking for us to confirm why the agreement was unenforceable and that they contend that the agreement was indeed enforceable and keep arguing this point in many of the previous correspondence.

 

 

6) My solicitor indeed replied to Capquest making them fully aware of why the agreement was indeed unenforceable. I issued a county court claim against Capquest Debt Recovery Limited and Capquest Investments Limited under case number: xxxxxxxxxx in the Peterborough County Court and was later transferred to Southend County court.

 

 

 

 

7) I tried to contact Mr Barry Davies on many occasions by telephone without success, the contact telephone numbers that Mr Barry Davies provided the court on the N9 Response Pack to my N1 Claim form was “0870 084 2565” This number is for a department within Capquest, and when asked to speak with Mr Barry Davies I was always asked for my Name and contact number and Mr Barry Davies would return my call. At no point in time did Mr Barry Davies return any of my phone calls when requested. I would like to point out that during the last 24 hours before my case was due to go before the district judge for a 3 hour trial, I received a letter from Mr Barry Davies inviting me to contact him by telephone on 0871 574 3068.

 

 

( 8 ) On 1st July 2010 I contacted Mr Barry Davies by telephone as requested on his letter that I received. During this telephone conversation, Mr Barry Davies agreed that the agreement was unenforceable and did not want to take up anymore of the courts time. I am under a confidentiality agreement with Capquest and cannot disclose any specific information. However I would like to make the following noted.

 

 

A) From my very own personal experience with the Capquest Group of Companies, it would appear to me, that if you challenge any of the information they hold against you, they what it would seem is threaten you with Statutory Demands in the hope that the alleged debtors payees money to Capquest to avoid bankruptcy proceedings. My solicitors Waller Needham & Green pointed out to Capquest that this is an abuse of process where there is a litigate dispute.

 

 

B) It is recorded in so many other cases, I hear about what Capquest are doing nationally to most of this customer base, instead of dealing with any enforcement for repayment of debtor accounts via the County Court by issuing a county court claim, it would indeed appear that Capquest are in fact choosing to issue statutory demands as this put greater fear upon people in efforts to try and secure payments that would otherwise not be made unless by order of a court following a successful county court claim against the debtors.

 

I believe the facts stated in this witness statement are true.
