    • In terms of "why didn't I make a claim" - well, that has to be understood in the context of the long-standing legal battle and all its permuations with the shark. In essence there was a repo and probable fire sale of the leasehold property - which would have led to me initiating the complaint/ claim v SPF in summer 19. But there was no quick sale. And battle commenced and it ain't done yet 5y later. A potential sale morphed into trying to do a debt deal and then into a full blown battle heading to trial - based on the shark deliberately racking up costs just so the ceo can keep the property for himself.  Along the way they have launched claims in 4 different counties -v- me - trying to get a backdoor B. (Haven't yet succeeded) Simultaneously I got dragged into a contentious forfeiture claim and then into a lease extension debacle - both of which lasted 3y. (I have an association with the freeholders and handled all that legal stuff too) I had some (friend paid for) legal support to begin with.  But mostly I have handled every thing alone.  The sheer weight of all the different cases has been pretty overwhelming. And tedious.  I'm battling an aggressive financial shark that has investors giving them 00s of millions. They've employed teams of expensive lawyers and barristers. And also got juniors doing the boring menial tasks. And, of course, in text book style they've delayed issues on purpose and then sent 000's of docs to read at the 11th hour. Which I not only boringly did read,  but also simultaneously filed for ease of reference later - which has come in very handy in speeding up collating legal bundles and being able to find evidence quickly.  It's also how I found out the damning stuff I could use -v- them.  Bottom line - I haven't really had a moment to breath for 5y. I've had to write a statement recently. And asked a clinic for advice. One of the volunteers asked how I got into this situation.  Which prompted me to say it all started when I got bad advice from a broker. Which kick-started me in to thinking I really should look into making some kind of formal complaint -v- the broker.  Which is where I am now.  Extenuating circumstances as to why I'm complaining so late.  But hopefully still in time ??

    • 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 All

 

I have a Welcome Finance CCA which for one reason or another has been bought by MKRR. I CCA'd them last September, and they have sent me a copy of the front page of the agreement with no T&Cs, but the thing that is puzzling me is the figures stated on the agreement. They are as follows:

 

Total amount of credit = 2945.43

Payment over 65 months

APR = 20.80%

AIR = 19.6%

Total charge for credit = 1805.93

Monthly Payment = 73.07

Made up of

Acceptance fee = 75.00

Interest Charge = 1728.93

 

All well and good, and I am no accountant, but I have work this out on several online loan calculators and got the same amount on each of them, which is different to that on the CCA. They are:

 

Total amount of credit = 2945.43

Payment over 65 months

AIR = 19.6%

Monthly Payment 73.88

Total Repayable = 4802.43

 

There is also no total repayable on the credit agreement. My question is, is this CCA enforceable? I was under the impression that the figures given should be correct. Please help

Total charge for cretid = 1857.00

Does anyone know whether the administration charges that Welcome Finance charge are fair and lawful.............or not?

Probably not :) Not sure which charges you are speaking of though. I have not seen a charge from them specifically called "administration charge". They have a long list of other charges to rip you off, most of which are unfair.

Hey Mr. Z

Thanks for the reply.

 

I was talking about charging £25 for a letter as well as other similar charges. The usual list that they give their victims.

Claim them all back. I claimed in the region of 2k in charges w/interest. They have refunded about a third of it. I am fighting them for the rest. But yes, is the simple answer. :)

Hi All,

 

Its been a while since I have had to post on here, but you have all been so helpful in the past and an old debt from 2006 has reared its ugly head again.

 

The original debt was a £3000 unsecured loan that I took out with Welcome Finance in 2003. In 2006, the debt was re-written to lower my payments due to difficulties our family were having because of illness.

 

I have checked the last statement that I have for this debt, and the last payment, or acknowledgement of the debt was on 29th May 2008.

 

Since then, out of desperation I have asked for a copy of the CCA, which never materialised and it has been through several debt collectors.

 

I have just checked my credit file and although I can see everything that I have now, there is no mention of this debt at all.

 

My problem is that we moved house back in May, and all of a sudden, Robinson Way started to write to me saying that their 'reconnection team' wanted me to get in touch.

I sent them a statute barred letter and heard nothing for a while.

 

Now Resovecall have written to me giving me seven days to call them or a doorstep collector will call to help me to reconnect with Robinson Way.

 

I am thinking that I should send Robinson Way a second statute barred letter as well as a doorstep visit letter to Resovecall.

 

Any help here would be much appreciated. Thank you.

Write to them immediately with a copy to Robinson Way and point out to them that there has already been a notification given that the debt is statute barred.

 

Point out the rule in https://www.consumeractiongroup.co.uk/forum/showthread.php?426148-CONC-7-15-Statute-barred-debts CONC 7 which makes it clear that they are not entitled to take any further action again she once they have been informed that the debt is statute barred.

 

Tell them that you are preparing to make a complaint to the financial ombudsman service and also reference to the FCA if there is any more trouble from them

ive merged a couple of old threads for the complete history.

 

pes I wouldn't send the doorstep letter that's old hat now

as BF says you have all the protection and armoury to now make a formal complaint against robbersway as if you sent our SB letter of recent that mentions conc 7 etc then they should not be contacting you nor pass the debt to a powerless doorstepper.

 

robbersway and the collection wing of Hoist portfolio whom I would assume are robbersways listed clients?

it might be better to write to the owner the debt and complain?

 

dx

please don't hit Quote...just type we know what we said earlier..

DCA's view debtors as suckers, marks and mugs

NO DCA has ANY legal powers whatsoever on ANY debt no matter what it's Type

and they

are NOT and can NEVER  be BAILIFFS. even if a debt has been to court..

If everyone stopped blindly paying DCA's Tomorrow, their industry would collapse overnight...
