    • Honestly you are all amazing on this site, thank you so much for your help and time. ill keep an eye out and only return when i receive a claim letter for sure also, i updated my address with amex and tsb before i even missed payments. the initial address was my family home but i dont reside there. to avoid a bombardment of letters there i have now updated my address, will they send all threats etc to the new address? Or old address?   do you reccomend i send both tsb and amex my update in address via a letter?
    • 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.

MSE people criticising CAG for supposedly "getting in bed" with a DCA? Now there's a (bitter) laugh.

 

Because MSE is (supposedly) unmoderated (it isn't!), you will find that any attempt to advise on bank charges, CCA compliance, debt, even consumer laws, gets flamed by people who know little, but are quite happt to take a "moral" stance, you know, the "well, you shouldn't have spent what you didn't have", or "you borrowed it, you have to pay it back" etc... the number of people who have come on here and found it a breath of fresh air so just not to get judged because they'd got in trouble, you'd be amazed!

 

MSE is sadly riddled with bank workers, undercover DCAs and other "financial advisors". :-(

I had to have a nosey... Oh, how I laughed... :-D

 

Posting there, we have (that I can recognise): 2 users who threw their dummy out of the pram for being moderated. 2 users who left CAG under a big nasty cloud and are not welcome here in any form or shape. They are the ones slagging off CAG and leading the "go elsewhere" campaign.

 

We also have a small handful of people sitting on the fence, but only reading the postings from the 1st category, are (understandably!) concerned that CAG may have sold out (site team, I hope you'll be happy to hear that your pockets are being lined with DCA money, when you get paid, let me know, will you? :-D)

 

And finally, we have a couple of recognisable people who are firmly dismissing the above nonsense, including, and I salute him for it, Mr Ton, who I believe himself left CAG after disagreements and yet is not afraid to stand up for CAG values.

 

Oh, the comedy value. :razz:

The MSE thread was started by the same person who was prolific in flaming and waging a dispuptive campaign here.You will see that the vast majority of the 4 pages of posts there are Wrinkleys own.

Nottingham Phil was also actively engaged in the same disruption.

Moderated posts were done so because it was needed,and also because the disruptions were taking up enormous amounts of team time.

 

Some of the things being alleged were totally unfounded,and these sorts of untruths can quickly fester into wider concerns for those who may believe them.

 

It is being suggested (or inferred) that the CAGs pockets are being lined by DCAs which is totally not true.

These are examples of some of those things that have to be addressed.

 

The MSE thread is very one sided,and does not reflect the truth of the matters.

Yes, like I was a time ago; it did upset me at the time because I began to think WTF was going on, as I was just trying to give someone a helping hand when they obviously needed it. I think it was about a home visit from a DCA, someone had been scared to death by them at their door so I told them what to do. Next, someone really did lay into me. The thread was ultimately locked but I was just amazed with the vehemence behind it. I began to think what was going on TBH, as it got a little like being surrounded in a wagon at times for purely getting people to know they could do something about the rubbish they got off a DCA or creditor. However, I stuck it out over there and gave as much advice as I knew to give at the time because I felt it was worth something to the people who didn't know and maybe wouldn't know if no one told them. I know from reading follow up messages it did make a difference to them as well but also because they then had the ground tools with which to take control of their situation(s).

 

It was amazing to see how many didn't know they could challenge the enforceability of a credit agreement least of all. However, like anything else in life, you don't need to know something until you need to. Just having someone there who wasn't going to judge, attack them for being in debt and 'why did you do this and' ... it's all so very easy for some to speak until it happens to them and then they know the 'whys' and realize they will be treated no differently to anyone else whether they be a merchant banker or an ordinary soul on benefits once you get into the den of DCAs. Many were very grateful for it as well, because many (including myself at one point) were at the end of their tether and didn't know who to go or what do do next when the letters started coming. Most of those were very often directed to this forum, which I saw other members doing quite a lot.

 

I haven't bothered with it over there for a while, though. I think mostly it was because I could not really tolerate people being treated harshly when they should be being helped. By a minority as the site is clearly very good for what it is.

On a slightly different note, but still relating to the tangents on this thread, I finally worked out what Oilyrag was on about when he started having a go at me, it's an old thread from January peddling a load of bull from the lawful rebellion/freeman persuasion. There's a relief, now I can sleep happily. :razz: Hi, Pinky69, I can see you watching the thread, you may remember it too, it was about "templates" Nuke 'em was suggesting sending to DCAs, and you and I, amongst others were none too impressed. :razz:

Lordy, Lordy!

the CAG member posted on this thread, Booky;

post #186.

Yes, I know. :rolleyes: But as I said, as this isn't HIS/HER origianl thread, then I suggest the place it to keep it on track would be on HIS/HER original thread and therefore your little admonition is also off-track in that respect. Savvy?

 

In other words: This thread has now gone so OT and all over the place that of anyone wants to have an on-topic convo about what they're up to, their thread is really where that info should be. No disrespect to the poster of #186 intended, incidentally. ;-)

Considering that this isn't Spidey's thread, I'd suggest THAT would be the place to keep it "on track", AC. ;-)
