    • sorry I have been confused by Statute Barred meaning. I thought with Statute Barred the debt cannot be chased 6 years after you have stopped paying.  Originally I set up a payment arrangement with all the companies around 2008 when things went horribly wrong. At that time the payment arrangement was with the original creditors.  I still have one of the original creditors who I pay each month (Cap1). I thought that if you make a payment arrangement you have to stick to that situation throughout. Also, MDR (Moorcroft) have been taking a monthly payment on behalf of M & S Bank for about 5 years. When I sent MDR a CCA request I got a copy of the original agreement sent to me directly by M & S Bank about 5 weeks after my CCA request. Sorry for my ignorance but would you suggest I stop paying all including Cap1 who are the original creditor? TIA

    • Dear all, I am hoping for some advice/guidance on this matter. I received a LoC dated 12/04/24 and replied to this on the 2/05/24 disputing claim with the following reasons: 1: [Inadequate Affordability Assessment]: I contend that your institution failed to conduct a thorough assessment of my financial circumstances prior to approving the loan. As a result, the loan amount and repayment terms were not suitable for my income and financial situation. 2: [Unsustainable Repayments]: The repayment schedule imposed by the loan agreement placed an undue burden on my finances, making it impossible for me to meet my other financial obligations without experiencing significant hardship. 3: [Lack of Transparency]: Your institution did not adequately disclose the risks associated with the loan, including any potential increases in interest rates or fees over the loan term. I also added the following: Under the Consumer Credit Act 1974 and the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) regulations, lenders have a legal obligation to conduct thorough affordability assessments and ensure that loan agreements are suitable for borrowers' circumstances. I hereby request that your institution: 1: Conduct a full investigation into my claim of irresponsible lending. 2: Provide me with copies of all documentation related to the loan application and approval process, including affordability assessments, credit checks, and correspondence. 3: Cease all collection activities related to the loan until this matter is resolved. Yesterday i received the attached reply via email and it included: 1: The Original Loan agreement 2: An account statement 3: A copy of a default notice letter. The email included a link for a direct debit set up page where you enter their reference and your bank account details (looks like a standard D/D set up page) but there is nothing to indicate the amount of the D/D that I might be agreeing to. I also think two days response time is not long enough to appropriately reply. Any thoughts appreciated   Email-compressed.pdf

    • 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 wonder if anyone could help me as I'm worried about Final notice I got today from G24 as it mentions a debt recovery agency and wondered if anything had happened recently to change the rules around PCNs. I received a PCN from G24 2 weeks ago after going shopping in Staples and overstaying my welcome by 15 mins as I spent a long time talking to the sales asst there. G24's PCN has time-stamped pictures of my car entering and leaving the car park. After looking at some of the the threads on this forum that I decided to ignore the letter. Today I received a Notice to Owner/Keeper/Hirer/Driver Final Reminder from G24 saying the liability for the parking charge lies with you, the owner/keeper/hirer/driver. Basically, I was given 14 days to pay the reduced amount and as they haven't received any money the outstanding amount is now £90. The scary sentence is "Failure to pay the increase amount will result in G24 Ltd forwarding the outstanding debt to a Debt Recovery Agency where you may incur additional costs". I am really unsure of the next step I should take as they have mentioned a debt recovery agency. I would be really grateful for any information or help.

The part where they say

 

"Failure to pay the increase amount will result in G24 Ltd forwarding the outstanding debt to a Debt Recovery Agency where you may incur additional costs"

 

actually means

 

"Failure to pay will wind us up, and we will pass it on to the cleaner on the next desk to see if they have any more luck trying to [problem] you"

 

Ignore all of it.

Please don't confuse a debt recovery agency with properly appointed court bailiffs. Debt collectors are just ordinary citizens with no special powers. They cannot enter your premises, they cannot seize goods and they cannot blacken your credit record.

Ignore.

 

They're well known scamsters and easy to ignore.

 

Today I received a Notice to Owner/Keeper/Hirer/Driver Final Reminder from G24 saying the liability for the parking charge lies with you, the owner/keeper/hirer/driver

 

I see G24 are still committing fraud then.

Thanks for all your support but am still worried and getting a little stressed by this. Had two letters from CCSCollect which I think is the inhouse collection for G24 (even though based in Thornton Heath). First quite polite but 2nd really nasty with big black lettters stating notice of intended legal action. Sentences like "This is a notice of intended legal action which will be relied upon by the creditor even if not read" & "Documents are being prepared for the final recovery of this debt." and giving only 2 days for any action on recipients part. I'm assuming this is part of their tactics to panic you into sending cheque, or paying online by credit or debit card. I can see pay at this point.

Lesson learnt is check everywhere that I park for any signs but I am sure some will evade me and don't go back to the car park where I got the ticket....

just idle threats to frighten you, just ignore some more, eventually they will stop as they realise they cant frighten you into paying a scamvoice
