    • okay, perfect and thank you so much for the help once again. so firstly i am going to initiate the breathing space, during this time it's likely ill receive a default. when i receive the default are you aware of how long it will take for me to know whether the OC have sold it off to DCAs? Once it's with the DCAs i do not need to worry as they cannot issue a CCJ only the OCs can Even if i decide to come an arrangement with the DCAs no point as the default will remain for 6 years paid or not paid I should only consider repayment if the OC still won the debt and then issue a CCJ? Just to confirm the default will not be seen after 6 years? No one can tell I had one then after 6 years ill be all good?
    • I'm not sure we were on standard tariffs - I've uploaded as many proofs as I can for the ombudsman - ovo called last night uping the compensation to 100 from 50 pounds for the slip in customer service however they won't acknowledge the the problem them not acknowledging a fault has caused nor are they willing to remedy anything as they won't accept the meter or formula was wrong.   I'd appreciate more details on the economy 7 approach and I'll update the ombudsman with any information you can share. 
    • To re-iterate and highlight my urgent question on this one: The N24 from the court did not include any instructions to submit paperwork 28 days before the date, unlike the N157 received for other smaller claims. Do I have to submit a WS for this court date? Link has!...
    • No, reading the guidance online it says to wait for a letter from the court. Should I wait or submit the directions? BTW, I assume that the directions are a longer version of the particular of claim accompanied by evidence, correct?
    • Thanks for opening, it's been another rough year for my family and I've procastinated a little.. Due to the age of my defaults on this and other accounts (circa 2021), I really need to avoid a CCJ as that will be another 6 years of credit issues. Mediation failed as I played the 'not enough info to make a decision' however during the call for some reason they did offer settlement at 80%, I refused. this has been allocated to small claims track, court date is June 3 and I've received their WS. I'm starting on my WS. They do appear to have provided everything required of them (even if docs could be reconstructions). Not really sure what my argument is anymore but I do want to attend court and see this through. Should a judgement be made against me then I will clear the balance within 30 days and have the CCJ removed - this is still possible isn't it? I'm going to be reading up today and tomorrow and hope you can provide me some guidance in the meantime. Wonder what your advice would be given the documents they have provided? I am now in a position to clear the debt either by lump sum or a few large installments - Is this something i should look into at this late stage? Thanks as always 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.

Hi ya

 

As requested, I have not attached a copy of my original application form, however this has been signed by both myself and on behalf of M&S, as this is a standard application form and if i removed all personal details would be blank.

 

I do attach the terms and conditions and agreement as supplied in responce to my request under section 77/78 of the CCA 1974,

Yes, but is the signature document easily legible, and does it contain any reference to prescribed terms overleaf or on page X for example?

 

Mine wasn't and didn't. ;)

 

Cheers

I have played letter ping pong with M&S for ages, they sent in respect of a preference account and credit card - application forms with no prescribed terms or ref to them.

 

They have used the "can be embodied in another doc" arguement, which is flawed as what they have sent doesn't make any ref to any other docs, and even if it did is balls as they can not be embodied in any other document than the executed agreement itself ... which must have a clear relationship, page nos etc linking all associated pages. So T&Cs don't count ... the letter you have had is a carbon copy (i.e template) of the same letter I have recently recd from the very same person ... who is real by the way, as I've spoken to him, but knows nothing about what he writes ... which tells me he's on the unenforceable team who just send out template letters .... and hope for the best ....

 

Also, point to consider ... my credit card actually started life as a marks and spencer STORE/CHARGE card, which M&S in their wisdom simply replaced with a credit card .. with no new agreement issued ... so I also have them on this too ... as what they sent me is for the ORIGINAL charge card ... so in effect they have NO executed agreement at all for the credit card they are chasing ....

 

Have a read through my thread, may give you some pointers ...

 

But I would also suggest that you scan and post your agreement (minus personals) so that you can get the specific help you're asking for ... ;)

I played that game with them too, with them insisting they were right and I was wrong, then they appeared to give up as they disappeared for a while. They may have just been waiting to see if I made a complaint to any relevant bodies (ICO or would it be Financial Ombudsman?).

 

However it seems that they have now engaged the services :rolleyes: of CDUK to try and pressure me into paying :rolleyes:. Needless to say, I'm just ignoring them, and I assume they'll soon get fed up with me not answering their calls or letters.

 

Except the other morning when I foolishly answered a 'Number Withheld' call. It was some git from CDUK who I told to "Fcuk off" and hung up. He immediately phoned back, got the same answer and some more choice words and I hung up on him again. This was repeated immediately with the same outcome.

 

It seems I upset them because the next day I received a Really Angry Letter In Red Ink And Large Typeface :D

 

Cheers

Well ... I would just send a letter to CDUK stating the account is in dispute with their Client, and that the matter should be referred back to them.

 

When M&S write to you again, you could send a "put up or shut up" letter ... saying that you will not correspond any further with them or their representatives, unless they provide the information you require ... i.e a correctly executed agreement ..... or they take you to court - an action which will be cited as frivilious and vexatious and vigirously defended .....

 

Doubt they will go the court route, if there's no prescribed terms within the 4 corners of the agreement, they know they are scuppered ...

 

Don't forget to scan your agreement for relevant advice for your particular agreement....

 

Mines def bogus so pretty confident they won't attempt any court action with me, but if they do I will be getting a Solicitor to represent me and they will squashed ... !!! :p
