    • Any update here?  I ask as we have others now taking on CPM.
    • I am sorry about getting your status mixed up.  I have noticed one thing in your excellent WS. On their claim they are only pursuing you as the keeper-I think it is  in their Point C that  states along the lines of -the driver did not pay , so the keeper is liable. So on your No keeper Liability section  You may prefer  to alter 13 to    . It is trite Law that the driver and the keeper cannot be regarded  as the same person and the claimant has failed to offer any proof who was driving.  BY  only pursuing the keeper  when the PCN does not comply with PoFA must mean that their claim fails. See what the Site team thinks as it should  stop the Judge from looking at who was driving as your statement preempts them from even thinking about it.
    • What would suffice as proof? I just emailed them back my date of birth. Should I send a copy of driving licence? 
    • Which Court have you received the claim from ? Northampton   MCOL Northampton N1 ? Manual Claim CCMCC (Salford) ? New beta WWW.MONEYCLAIMS.SERVICE.GOV.UK ?   If possible please scan redact and upload a full page copy of page 1 of the claim form.   This has been uploaded in my previous messages in the bundle of documents     Name of the Claimant ? Asset Link Capital (NO5) Limited   How many defendant's  joint or self ? Self   Date of issue – top right hand corner of the claim form – this in order to establish the time line you need to adhere to./   14/02/2020   ^^^^^ NOTE : WHEN CALCULATING THE TIMELINE - PLEASE REMEMBER THAT THE DATE ON THE CLAIMFORM IS ONE IN THE COUNT [example: Issue date 01.03.2014 + 19 days (5 days for service + 14 days to acknowledge) = 19.03.2014 + 14 days to submit defence = 02.04.2014] = 33 days in total Not relevant as his claim was set aside, and has now been brought to the court again by the claimant       Particulars of Claim   What is the claim for – the reason they have issued the claim? Please see bundle of documents in previous thread   What is the total value of the claim? £10,734.1    Have you received prior notice of a claim being issued pursuant to paragraph 3 of the PAPDC (Pre Action Protocol) ? No   Have you changed your address since the time at which the debt referred to in the claim was allegedly incurred?  Yes - this is one of the grounds for getting it set aside   Did you inform the claimant of your change of address? No Is the claim for - a Bank Account (Overdraft) or credit card or loan or catalogue or mobile phone account? Credit Card   When did you enter into the original agreement before or after April 2007 ?  Apparently 2000   Do you recall how you entered into the agreement...On line /In branch/By post ? I do not recall entering into an agreement with Barclays   Is the debt showing on your credit reference files (Experian/Equifax /Etc...) ?  It was, but it is not anymore   Has the claim been issued by the original creditor or was the account assigned and it is the Debt purchaser who has issued the claim. Assigned to Asset Link   Were you aware the account had been assigned – did you receive a Notice of Assignment? No - although they have provided a copy of the assignment notice in their bundle of docs for the hearing   Did you receive a Default Notice from the original creditor? I don't remember - but again a copy of a letter has been provided (see bundle on previous thread)   Have you been receiving statutory notices headed “Notice of Sums in Arrears”  or " Notice of Arrears "– at least once a year ?  No    Why did you cease payments?  2015   What was the date of your last payment? December 2015   Was there a dispute with the original creditor that remains unresolved?  I wrote to Barclaycard back in 2015 to ask them to send proof of the original agreement but they just sent me a reconstituted document which had no personal deals on relating to me   Did you communicate any financial problems to the original creditor and make any attempt to enter into a debt management plan? yes - step change took control and set up payments of £1 pm

    • 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.

We have hit the lull that my husband has not worked since christmas properly and we have tried to ask welcome for some understanding and time to get back on track. The are not very forthcoming at all. We borrowed 14,000 altogether over 10years. we are paying £343 a month but their capitalisation charges are just as much so therefore will our loan ever come down??

 

What are these charges that are so much? Can they threaten repossession even if they have not asked for an income expenditure details how can I rid them of harrassing us continually and being charged for these calls. My husand has reached the end of his teather and I am so near with them too.

 

Please advise, will be ever so gratefull

Hi Blue capitalisation is what is commonly known as interest hope that helps a little.

 

Have you told them in writing you want no futher verbal (telephone) contact?

 

Dont panic about being charged for calls that is something you can claim back.

I am a consumer just like you, please get a second opinion or investigate yourself on anything I advise as I am in no way legally trained. Everything I know has come from the Mighty CAG and fellow CAGGERS. :cool:

Sorry to hear they are harrassing you so much. I only joined this forum a few weeks ago so am not the best to advise you but we are in a similar situation. The loan with welcome is not mine but my partners and i felt so strongley about they way they treated him i joined here for advice. We send off a letter about telephone and doorstep harrasment over 2 weeks ago but sadly that hasnt stopped them, i would say if anything they are worse than ever! We are the end of our tether with them and their threats. Also my partners loan is 103 a month or something like that and each month they are adding on 106 capitilisation so it will never be paid off, how can that be legal???!!!

HELP! I have today received a letter from Welcome Financ containing a Default Notice, I am alreadyat my wits end with them as last week I asked them to ring me so I could talk properly instead of in the office and I have not heard from them.

My husband has been out of work for quite a while, I have taken on as many repayments as possible and cannot literally afford to pay Welcome, they are aware of our situation.

Our house has gone back on the market this week as we are pretty certain that if its not sold it will almost certainly be repossessed.

I wonder if we handed the keys back to the mortgage people what order do the loans fixed to the house get settled? is there any particular order? We have the mortgage which has a suspended possession order, fixed loan with welscum and a court order on which we had on car finance which is currently being paid monthly under arrangement by myself.

We are worried sick that we dont know what to do in the right way, please any help and advice would be welcome to us ;-)

Hi, just wondered if someone can help me, I have had my SAR returned and my statement says that I have had £718.25 worth of charges in telephone calls to me and charges for letters from 4/1/2006 to 3/4/2010.

 

Can I collect this back from welcme or can they say that it is legal and stands as their charges? If so is there a letter that I can use as a template.

 

We have had enough of them ;-(

 

Any help will be so gratefully received

I got my charges back. I believe it is wrong for them to charge interest on charges which is why they now send a letter stating if the charge is paid in the timescale interest will be added. I would write to them and tell them the charges should not have been charged interest.

if they charge interest on their charges then claim it back the same way as PPI + 8% as well.

 

there are many threads about his .

just remember you charge them intererst from the date EACH charge was levied not enmass in one lump .

I have today spoken to Welscum and they have confirmed that they do charge interest on charges applied to my account ie telephone calls or charges for letters issued.

 

So far I have according £157 worth of charges which is being charged a monthly interest of £2.63 (this months charge). How do I go about reclaiming and calculating the interest at 8%?

 

Again any help is gratefully recevied :D
