    • Thank-you dx, What you have written is certainly helpful to my understanding. The only thing I would say, what I found to be most worrying and led me to start this discussion is, I believe the judge did not merely admonish the defendant in the case in question, but used that point to dismiss the case in the claimants favour. To me, and I don't have your experience or knowledge, that is somewhat troubling. Again, the caveat being that we don't know exactly what went on but I think we can infer the reason for the judgement. Thank-you for your feedback. EDIT: I guess that the case I refer to is only one case and it may never happen again and the strategy not to appeal is still the best strategy even in this event, but I really did find the outcome of that case, not only extremely annoying but also worrying. Let's hope other judges are not quite so narrow minded and don't get fixated on one particular issue as FTMDave alluded to.

    • the claimant in their WS can refer to whatever previous CC judgements they like, as we do in our WS's, but CC judgements do not set a legal precedence. however, they do often refer to judgements like Bevis, those cases do created a precedence as they were court of appeal rulings. as for if the defendant, prior to the raising of a claim, dobbed themselves in as the driver in writing during any appeal to the PPC, i don't think we've seen one case whereby the claimant referred to such in their WS.. ?? but they certainly typically include said appeal letters in their exhibits. i certainly dont think it's a good idea to 'remind' them of such at the defence stage, even if the defendant did admit such in a written appeal. i would further go as far to say, that could be even more damaging to the whole case than a judge admonishing a defendant for not appealing to the PPC in the 1st place. it sort of blows the defendant out the water before the judge reads anything else. dx

    • 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.

Does anyone have any dealing with these two.

Lending stream defaulted about 2 months ago and heard nothing at all, is that normal.

Payday express defaulted about 2 months ago as well. Had calls on me mobile and a text saying they will send one of there door to door collectors round, oh and they recently sent me a default notice.

I am waiting for these to be passed to dca’s as previous attempts to come to payment plans didn’t work as they said what I could afford was not enough.

So does anyone know how these companies operate and what dca’s they use?

my advice: payday express will come to an agreement, you can pay by standing order and i believe if you do it over 12 months they will probably accept. lending stream , same thing.

 

no offence, but if you owe them money they are obviously going to call you... what do you expect them to do? seriously, call them or email them say you dont have a card and can pay direct and come to an arrangement, then they'll stop calling you.

I have spoken to national debt line who have confirmed that I can insist they deal with me only by e-mail. Being called 12 times a day by them constitutes harrasment. I have been advised to report them to the OFT and trading standards if it continues.

 

I have been in regular contact with them by e-mail but the call centre still rings me every day.

they would only call you once a day if you answered (speaking from experience) put the boxing gloves down coz you can insist all you want, these bunch of crooks run on rules of their own (at least for now) ... just my advice to you.

 

Advice from the National Debt Line (that I'm more inclined to take, seeing as I don't know you from Adam) is never speak to these people by phone.

 

To be honest, it's only pay day express who are being this cheeky. All the others have been very reasonable and are happy to deal with me in any way I see fit. Apart from Quick Quid though. They are psychos.

lol (quick quid are psycos), national debt line - in my opinion an abolsute waste of time and whoever's paying them money, us on CAG know how to deal with almost every lender and can give and offer free advice to anyone who needs it. What i did was discuss on the phone and confirm everything after the call in writing - they stopped calling after that, your choice, good luck however you proceed.

Whenever they call send an email confirming caller name, time and the fact that you have requested everything in email, and keep the evidence in case they go to court.

 

I have seen one lot of particulars of claim stating the payday loan company had called to make an arrangement to pay but nothing happened, and when the evidence to the contrary was presented as part of the defence they caved in. On this occasion they had called three times a day on landline, twice on work phone and three times on mobile, each time the same email was sent, requesting they set up a payment plan of xxx on xxx date (to pay the loan back over 3 months) and no telephone calls...

Hi all,

A question for anyone who has had dealings with lending stream.

I defaulted with them about 7-8 months ago and have been waiting for them to make contact (buying time really) before I sort them out, but I have not heard I dickey bird from them?

Is this normal it’s like the debt has just disappeared the online account I have with them has been closed and there is no trace of them on my credit file?

Interesting.. I must admit that when I've contacted them in the past they've been very slack in responding. Perhaps you've got away with it?

 

I recently defaulted with PDUK and my credit file was updated within a couple of weeks - not to reflect the default, but just to indicate the amount outstanding on my repayment plan.

 

Lending Stream's website simply says that they pass on information to credit bureaus so other lenders can see that you're repaid on time...

Dulwich,

 

I forgot to mention I received one letter about a month or two after defaulting saying

"We are disappointed you have not made payment please contact us to make payment asap"

That was it still have not heard a thing my finances are improving now so I am thinking of making contact soon ish, but I don’t want to look a gift horse in the mouth if you know what I mean!

I defaulted with them end of January and have had a couple of emails from them after I asked about a payment plan. They sent me their bank details but refused to freeze interest/charges. I said I would not start paying them off until they agreed to freeze everything. Haven't heard anything else since February though. Does anyone know which DCA they use?
