    • 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.

Hello everyone

 

After a reading some of the posts over the past week, it really brings it home to me how much the banks are making out of people. I have calculated that I have paid £2399.00 since 2001. I have sent my preliminary letter and schedule of charges and recieved a letter this morning saying they will reply again within 5 days after making investigations. This falls within my 14 day deadline.............I suppose this means that they are taking it seriuosly!

Scampjet v HSBC. more advise please!

 

I have recieved another reply from HSBC stating basically that they are right and I am wrong. They are saying that the OFT ruling concerned only credit cards and that thier charges are justified. I have just dowloaded the lba template, but would like to know if there is anything else I should do before sending it and also, they say that I should continue to contact them via their internal complaints proceedure. should I do this aswell?

Hello all! more advice needed please.

 

I have recieved a letter from HSBC and they say that their charges are fair and the OFT ruling applies only to credit cards. I have read in one section of this site ( can't remember which) that this is common. I am about to send the LBA letter to them but they are suggesting that I should take it to the next stage of complaint as per their internal complaints procedure. Should I do this aswell?

Hi Scampjet

 

This is YOUR claim, YOU are in control here, NOT them. Stick to YOUR timetable and the proven method used by thousands of people on this site.

 

There is no need to do anything other than send in your LBA. Simple. The LBA is suffice and shows you mean business, don't waste your time and postage with internal complaints procedures.

 

I had a successful claim against HSBC in March so I can tell you personally that you mustn't be tricked into doing anything other than by playing by the CAG rules ;-)

Hi all,

 

Hsbc has made me an offer of £2000.00 2days after LBA 14 day period expired. They have given me 10 days to respond. the reason for thier offer is that they are mindful of the costs involved defending the claim should it proceed to court. ( though they are confident they will win if they do)!

 

They have sent a form to claim the money in the form of a statment that the claim has been settled. I assume from this offer, that should I proceed to court for the full sum of £2,880. that they think I will win.

 

However, £2000 is a good offer. But now I have another problem. They wish to cridit my HSBC account with the offer within 7 days of recieving the signed statment. But I want the account to be closed. We have a DMP in place and because the offered payment to the HSBC is less than the agreed monthly payment, they have not closed the account as we have requested them to, but are debiting the account for the monthly payments of our loan account from it. As the amount of the DMP is not enough to meet the payments they are applying a recall charge of £30 per month plus interest to the account. As this has been going on for a few months, the overdrawn balance on our current account is now £750.00. We believe they have not closed the account in order to keep applying charges, as if the account is in debit it cannot be closed. Are we right? We have written to them to accept the offer under the condition that the account is closed and are prepared to accept that some of the money is used to pay off the current account balance ( less charges & interest) so that it can be closed and have asked that the remainder be paid direct to us by cheque. We think that the banks offer to pay directly into our account is designed to ensure that they still have control and will demand that the money is paid off our loan, so that they do not have to accept the DMP. Our thinking is that if the current account is clear of debt, there is no reason for them not to accept the DMP. Do you think they will go for this? Also, as they have accepted payments into the account under the DMP are they still able to say that they do not accept the agreement?

i would write and accept the offer (should you not want the hassel of persuing the other 880 - however 880 is quite a sum and i'd be tempted to chase it all - after all it is yours!)

 

put in your letter that you require the funds to be paid in cheque madee out to you and under no circumstances do you wish to have it paid into your HSBC account - they should honor this and then you can still go for a DMP and do what you wish with the money

People who haven't made mistakes, haven't made anything!

Thanks for reply jo5eph,

 

I gave HSBC 7 days to respond to my request and said that I would settle upon reciept of funds..............Nothing yet though.........7 days up to day. Do you think they will be tied down to a timscale or will do things in thier own time? I,m wondering now if I,ve done the right thing! I don,nt want to go to court unless I have to!

Thanks Michael,

 

I have copied the info for filling in the N1. Is there any 'legal speak' I need to include in the breif details section on the front, or is it just a general statement?

 

And 3 copies of my charges schedule?

well I've done it now! .........Filed my N1 today.

 

I do hope it's not £120.00 wasted.

 

Apparently in my area (S.Wales) they have had so many claims of this nature that "if it does go as far as a hearing, It will probably not be held at my local court as they have designated a judge at Cardiff court for such cases!" I wish I could have claimed on-line though.......at the moment they are unable to process the claims for 10 days on average because of the backlog and sheer volume!

Why couldn't you claim online? Was it just the delay?

 

All will be well, it might just take a little longer

 

Good luck

 

No.......................I hav'nt got a debit card anymore!...........HSBC took it away!:)

hello all,

 

Had a letter 2 days after I told the bank I was on my way to town to serve papers. They phoned about current account balance, but when I told her my intentions and that the bank had acted contrary to thier own advice regarding debt ( we asked for every kind of help thier leaflets suggested and got turned down on the grounds that we had a managed loan) she replied...."oH!" and with a few more mumbles said thank you and hung up. the letters they sent were obviously put together in a hurry because they were in the same envelope and consisted of: one option to make reduced payments on our managed loan account for the duration but reserving the right to amend the agreement at any time and all the while applying interest. Or a reduction on our present payments but more that the first letter. including interest and amalgamating the current account balance with the present managed loan balance. effectively a new managed loan, in which we would have paid them twice the original debt by the time its finished. they also sent us 2 shiney new debit cards which they took off us in August! Needles to say I have returned all the agreements and debit cards. I find it interesting though that as we followed their own advice to the letter at first, before we heared about being able to re-claim charges, as soon as I mentioned serving papers at court.................they offer us a carrot. I can only assume it is to try to cover their mistakes! Anyway, recived notice of service today and their 14 days is up on 14th DEC. I will carry on reading various posts to glean more info on what happens next........But any more input from the experts will be welcome!

as you've probably gathered if you've read very many threads - when you receive your acknowledgment, it will state their "intend to defend fully" the claim. this then buys them another 14 days. but it also gives you the opportunity to get a name at dg and send them your schedule of charges. this has helped speed up the process in some cases - though not all. but surely worth a try. so, next thing to watch for is the service papers from the court and probably an acknowledgment. good luck. happy waiting - this can be gruelling at times - just keep reading to be infomed and maybe help some of the real newbies to get to where you are now.
