    • look on the bright side - it would allow Biden to do what he likes ...
    • Few tweaks as the run order was completely messed up and the main point of your defence (reconstituted agreement) pushed to the bottom of the statement.   I, XXXXXX, being the Defendant in this case will state as follows; I make this Witness Statement in support of my defence in this claim and further to my set aside application dated 1 November 2022. 1.The claimants witness statement confirms that it mostly relies on hearsay evidence as confirmed by the drafts in person in the opening paragraph. It is my understanding they must serve notice to any hearsay evidence pursuant to CPR 33.2(1)(B) (notice of intention to rely on hearsay evidence) and Section 2 (1) (A) of the Civil Evidence Act. 2.  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 wrote off as a capital loss and claimed against taxable income as confirmed in the claimants witness statement exhibit by way of the Deed of Assignment. 3. 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. 4.  I became aware of original Judgement following a routine credit check on or around 14th September 2020. 5. The alleged letter of claim dated 7 January 2020 was served to a previous address which I moved out of in 2018, no effort was made to ascertain my correct address.  I have attached a copy of my tenancy agreement which is marked ‘Appendix 1’ and shows I was residing at a difference address as of 11 December 2018 and was therefore not at the service address at the time the proceedings were served.  I have also attached an email from my solicitors to the Claimants solicitors dated 14 July 2022 which was sent to them requesting that they disclose the trace of evidence they utilised prior to issuing the proceedings against me.  This is marked ‘Appendix 2’. The claimants solicitors did not provide me with these documents. 6. Under The Pre-Action Protocol for Debt Claims 2017 a Debt Buyer must undertake all reasonable enquiries to ensure the correct address of a debtor, this can be as simple as a credit file search. The Claimant failed to carry out such basic checks. Subsequently all letters prior to and including ,The Pre action Protocol letter of claim dated 7 January 2020 and the claim form dated 14th February 2020 were all served to a previous address which I moved out of in 2018. 7. Upon the discovery of the Judgement debt, I made immediate contact with the Court and the Claimant Solicitors, putting them on notice that I was making investigations in relation to the Judgement debt as it was not familiar to me.  I asked them to provide me with a copy of the original loan agreement but this was not provided to me.   The correspondence to the Claimant Solicitor's is attached and marked ‘Appendix 3’ 8. On (insert date) I successfully made application to set a side the judgment. The claim proceeded to allocation, 9. The claimant failed to comply with the additional directions ordered by District Judge Davis on the 2 February 2024 'The Claim shall be automatically struck out at 4pm on 3 April 2024 unless the Claimant delivers to the Court and to the Defendant the following documents.' None of these documents were received by the court nor the defendant by that date. (insert date you did receive the documents) I then sent a Data Subject Access Request to Barclays but no agreement was provided. Details the timeline of communication between myself and Barclays are attached and marked ‘Appendix 4’and the copies of correspondence between myself and Barclays are attached and marked ‘Appendix 5’. Remove irrelevant 10.The claimant relies upon and has exhibited a reconstituted version of the alleged agreement. It is again denied that I have ever entered into an agreement with Barclaycard on or around 2000.  It is admitted that I did hold other credit agreements with other creditors and as such should this be a debt that was assigned to Barclaycard from another brand therefore the reconstituted agreement disclosed is invalid being pre April 2007 and not legally enforceable pursuant to HHJ Judge Waksman in Carey v HSBC 2009 EWHC3417.  Details of this are attached and marked ‘Appendix 6’. The original credit agreement must be provided along with any reconstituted version on a modified credit agreement and must contain the names and address of debtor and creditor, agreement number and cancelation clause. 11. Therefore the claimant is put to strict proof to disclose a true executed legible agreement on which its claim relies upon and not mislead the court. 12. It is denied I have ever received a default Notice pursuant to sec 87(1) CCA1974.The claimant is put to strict proof to evidence from the original creditors internal document software the trigger of said notice.  13.   As per CPR 1.4(2)(a) the court encourages parties to cooperate with each other in the conduct of proceedings in order to try and save time and costs for the parties and to also save the time and resources of the court however, despite vast attempts at mediation the claimants have been most unreasonable and have remained unwilling to mediate. 14. Until such time the claimant can comply and disclose a true executed copy of the original assigned agreement they refer to within the particulars of this claim they are not entitled while the default continues, to enforce the agreement pursuant to section 78.6 (a) of the Credit Consumer Act 1974. I believe that the facts stated in this Witness Statement are 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 its truth.

    • As one of you mentioned above I've been in a mess for nearly 20 years now and I'm ready to sort my credit report out now - the main reason I got into second round of debt is my kids being unwell and the state considering them not unwell enough for extra help so despite my son being in hospital for 3 months in one year we got extra zero help and I eventually lost my job and got into debt to just so I can be تا my sons hospital bed at his time of need - my life basically fell apart and all these debts got me again 
    • Gosh mate I've woke up this morning with half the worry I had last night when going to sleep!.  I can't believe how much this forum has helped me over the years and I don't  have the words to explain the gratitude I feel towards you guys -  Now that I've slept on it I feel ready to reject this company and my plan is to make them an offer to accept payments to date as full and final settlement - I will I think write them a letter once my review is completed or maybe just send it now whilst they are reviewing explaining my kids are unwell for which reason I'm struggling to survive and if I can politely request for them to accept payment to date as a full and final - I'll mention I don't have any cash or anyone to borrow from to offer a full or even part amount of the remaining balance of the iva and therfore am unable to make a offer of payment.   If they agree to at least even put my offer to the creditors then I feel it's better I hang in there and that way I won't have to deal with any possibilities of more defaults and ccjs    Right now the only adverse effects on my credit report are the iva that is now 3 years old and 2 Ccj one coming of this July and one thus October.    But I am worried new action will begin and new defaults and Ccj may start to appear because I've paying into an agreement im under the impression the 6 year rules starts again so yes I have lost of mixed feelings about this but I'm not going to lie you guys have put some life back into my breath this week as for the last 3 years I've felt caged like an animal and this morning I feel freer I can't explain how much but certainly my soul feel lighter today thanks to yin because I'm now viewing this review totally different to I do yesterday thanks to you guys

    • 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.

Dear ALI2021

 

I stupidly took a pay day loan out with these horrible people. The loan was for £100 I told them that I couldnt afford to pay them as my partner had been laid off due to the weather at the beginning of the year. In the space of four weeks it had gone up to over £500. I have paid them £200 already keep getting threatening letters telling me doorstep colectors will be attending as yet no one has turned up I have emailed them several times and told them to send me court papers and I will be happy to tell the Judge how my loan went from £100 to £500 in the space of four weeks.

Hi Roxy,

 

I offered them 200 as final settlement figure which is with 2 months interest and they said call them at the end of the month to see if it can be settled... but not sure if they will settle it as they might just take it and add further charges... what you guys think?

Dear ALI2021

Last response from them was doorstep collectors calling to my home nobody has been. I dont really want to go to court but how can they justify adding nearly £400 in the space of four weeks on a £100 loan. Do you know what there interest is as I think I have paid them £165 at present.

  • 2 weeks later...

Roxy they are claiming 400 plus from my oh on a 100 pound loan, So that figure seems about right for MC BUT if you have paid them 165 pounds already

Dear Delboy01

 

I have looked on my account and according to that I still owe £360. I have recieved a further letter from them this week stating that if I dont settle the account by the 22nd April they will start legal action. I keep emailing them and telling them to send me the papers but they dont reply to my emails. What would you do just ignore the letters?

What I did was email them with a settlement figure I could pay, this was refused.

Didnt hear from them despite emailing them for a few months, then received a court summons filed my defence etc

Havnt heard anything from the court or minicredit since Januaryish.

BTW keep your email trail it can be very helpful should you need to use it later. Their refusal to answer your emails wont look good in court.

Absolutely. In fact, the more you can post the better. If they ever bring up that you use this forum they will be effectively admitting they know about the defects in their case yet continued regardless. Could have costs implications ;-)

 

In 90% of all my threads I'm quite open about the information creditors can see. Especially in my HFO thread... they brought in a huge bundle of all my posts from the forum. The Judge practically deemed them irrelevant to the case and classed it as underhand. He also said that my actions in being public were consistent with my open and honest approach and that it was to HFO's advantage that they knew in advance all of my arguments.

 

So don't worry. They'll know everything eventually. Just don't get caught out making libellous statements like others have done.

Is there a telephone you can ring them on all you get on there letteres is an email address which when you send them emails they ignore. I am not really bothered about going to court Delboy01 has been waiting since January for a court date. They actually agreed to the amount that i have paid but then went backward on it because i couldnt pay it on the day they said it was actually the day after never dealt with a company like it.

If you have that in writing keep it as it will be useful evidence. This is why you need to keep emailing.

 

A complaint to Trading Standards via Consumer Direct and the Office of Fair Trading is in order as well. If you have paid them the capital and one nonths interest back that should be it.

Dear sillygirl1

 

Dont know if you have had a breakdown of charges like this from them. Recieved an email from them on the 23.12.2010 stating that they charge £1 a day overdue penalties which added up to £66 then they said my debit card had been recorded in the system for court presentation and attempt fees which have added up to £261 and then a debt recovery fee of £100. I sent them an email on the 22.2.2011 telling them I would only be paying the amount plus one month's interest they asked if i could immediately when i emailed them back and told them it would be the 25th they refused to accept it. I then emailed them again on the 18.3.2011 telling them i would only communicate with them in writing and not to send any doorstep collectors to my home. Nobody has been to my home what a suprise since then i have heard nothing apart from the letter last week stating if I dont pay £360 by the 22nd April they will start legal action bring it on.

Get that email off to the Office of Fair Trading IMMEDIATELY, they CANNOT charge you £1 a day and the claptrap about 'presenting your debit card to court for court fees is way way way beyond reasonable.

 

Get Trading Standards involved in this too as they need to see how unreasonable this lot are.

 

The charges are not valid even though they may have them in the contract, it clearly is an unfair terms and conditions scene, this is meant to be a short term debt - not a long term money making situation for them.

Did you see on the POC they are claiming 9p per day from date of issue,

dont think the judge will like the delay by them to build that up.

There is no provision in law to claim EITHER contractual or statutory post-judgment interest on payday loans of this nature. What they are trying to do is illegal.
