    • Hi I was caught shoplifting 4 items £20 worth, I’m petrified the Police will come to my house now please can you help. What can I do I worried about my job. 
    • I heard nothing more from J&P but have now had an email from the bank saying they have instructed IDR to act on their behalf?  so are they just passing it back? Selling it on again? I don’t know if this is a good or bad thing 
    • I posted a couple of years ago about our debt situation and have been trying to pay off our debt as best we can. It is a possibility I maybe made redundant in a few months time, so I am trying to find out everything I can about what happens in today’s world when you can’t pay. I keep finding conflicting advice on various sites so I wanted to post this quote to get thoughts. It claims basically that the dca will likely get enforceable documents these days and therefore it’s likely you will have to pay dca at some point during the 6 year process.    on here I read a lot of comments assuming the exact opposite of this. A lot of the threads on here state the beginning of the process but I never see conclusive stuff about what happened from start to finish to get insight into whether debts post 2015 have been enforced etc. I hear a lot here not to pay dca companies but most my debts are post 2015 debts I am all up to date on our debts but if I lose my job it is likely I’ll end up where I tried to avoid in the first place. Which is destroying our files and dealing with DCA. I’ll post it below so you can see what I mean.   It is likely that any debts incurred after 2007 will end up with all the documentation being provided and being enforceable. Therefore you should use the time while awaiting responses going through your Income & Expenditure and considering any possiblity of making a full and final settlement. It can take a number of months to reach the stage of a hearing date and exchange of witness statements and normally you would be able to settle or come to an arrangement to pay before the court hearing, once documents have been provided, although this isn’t guaranteed.
    • depends who said sols state their client is. IDRWW vis~IDR(worldWide) are a debt collector regulated & registered in the UK & USA    they are not solicitors. they use various 'for hire' - here use our letterhead paper tiger solicitors. its just a case of who's stupid enough to join their folly. IDR law used to be their fav but they lost do much money, they broke ties after almost being struck off and now do Will/Probate disputes only. IDR Legal are their sols wing. moriarty law Judge and priestly Taheel - a foreign DCA that use absolutely any trick in the book to extort money even pretending to be any of the above inc being the bank themselves in phone calls.

    • 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,

 

I was wondering if anyone can offer me any advice on what i can or should do.

 

I got a call from fredrickson international today about an outstanding mobile phone bill. The bill originally £150 has now gone up to £706! They were asking for immediate payment, which i cannot make as i am currently unemployed. The woman took payment of £27 and said they she willl give me until the 30th October to come up with £260 and the rest the following month! As i am currently unemployed i very much thought i will have that amount of money by then. Is there anything i can do?

Okay. Have you received any letters from them about this debt before now? Unfortunately it's a bit late now, as you have paid by phone, they now also have your card details but had you come here first etc this could have been avoided.

 

Who is the creditor, is it Vodaphone?

 

The charges they have added are unlawful far as I know. Therefore I was going to suggest you send the prove it letter but as you have paid them a sum not sure how to proceed now.

 

I certainly wouldn't talk to them on the phone anymore. I am sure there will be advice from others soon.

Best advice I can give is to immediately cancel your card, and request a replacement.

 

Wait until they next telephone (won't be long!) and inform them that you will only deal with them in writing.

 

Do not, under any circumstances pay them anything more.

 

Who is the original account with, and how old is the debt, ie when did the first lower amount become payable.

 

Ignore all the stuff they have said to you over the 'phone, I advise never to speak with them on the 'phone (that advice is for all DCAs not just Freds). They will say loads of stuff over the phone that they would never dare to put in a letter.

 

The amount you owe, is the original amount, ignore the added on charges.

Thanks for the advice so far.

 

Ok, i will cancel the card. Lucky it was only an 02 money card and it only had £30 in it anyway. Yeah the original creditor was Vodafone and the debt is from July 2009. Next time they phone i will say i will only deal with them in writing. So do i only have to pay the £150?

 

Thanks

I was also wondering if Lee from Vodaphone would also be useful here, I understand he's very good at sorting these things out. Something to consider anyway.

Thanks guys, i have emailed vodafone and will post the reference number on here as soon as i get it.

 

The debt came about when i fell behind on monthly payments, i did contact vodafone and inform them i wasnt going to meet the payment date. I didn't hear anything from until a few weeks ago when i received a letter from Fredrickson International and today a phone call to ask for payment.

Hi Kamalamrani,

 

I'm pleased to see that some great help has been on hand while I've been away.

 

I'd certainly like to take a closer look at your case to see what's going on here.

 

Having checked our emails I can confirm that I've now got yours and will be getting back to you as soon as I can.

 

Kind regards,

 

Lee
