    • I am sorry about getting your status mixed up.  I have noticed one thing in your excellent WS. On their claim they are only pursuing you as the keeper-I think it is  in their Point C that  states along the lines of -the driver did not pay , so the keeper is liable. So on your No keeper Liability section  You may prefer  to alter 13 to    . It is trite Law that the driver and the keeper cannot be regarded  as the same person and the claimant has failed to offer any proof who was driving.  BY  only pursuing the keeper  when the PCN does not comply with PoFA must mean that their claim fails. See what the Site team thinks as it should  stop the Judge from looking at who was driving as your statement preempts them from even thinking about it.
    • What would suffice as proof? I just emailed them back my date of birth. Should I send a copy of driving licence? 
    • Which Court have you received the claim from ? Northampton   MCOL Northampton N1 ? Manual Claim CCMCC (Salford) ? New beta WWW.MONEYCLAIMS.SERVICE.GOV.UK ?   If possible please scan redact and upload a full page copy of page 1 of the claim form.   This has been uploaded in my previous messages in the bundle of documents     Name of the Claimant ? Asset Link Capital (NO5) Limited   How many defendant's  joint or self ? Self   Date of issue – top right hand corner of the claim form – this in order to establish the time line you need to adhere to./   14/02/2020   ^^^^^ NOTE : WHEN CALCULATING THE TIMELINE - PLEASE REMEMBER THAT THE DATE ON THE CLAIMFORM IS ONE IN THE COUNT [example: Issue date 01.03.2014 + 19 days (5 days for service + 14 days to acknowledge) = 19.03.2014 + 14 days to submit defence = 02.04.2014] = 33 days in total Not relevant as his claim was set aside, and has now been brought to the court again by the claimant       Particulars of Claim   What is the claim for – the reason they have issued the claim? Please see bundle of documents in previous thread   What is the total value of the claim? £10,734.1    Have you received prior notice of a claim being issued pursuant to paragraph 3 of the PAPDC (Pre Action Protocol) ? No   Have you changed your address since the time at which the debt referred to in the claim was allegedly incurred?  Yes - this is one of the grounds for getting it set aside   Did you inform the claimant of your change of address? No Is the claim for - a Bank Account (Overdraft) or credit card or loan or catalogue or mobile phone account? Credit Card   When did you enter into the original agreement before or after April 2007 ?  Apparently 2000   Do you recall how you entered into the agreement...On line /In branch/By post ? I do not recall entering into an agreement with Barclays   Is the debt showing on your credit reference files (Experian/Equifax /Etc...) ?  It was, but it is not anymore   Has the claim been issued by the original creditor or was the account assigned and it is the Debt purchaser who has issued the claim. Assigned to Asset Link   Were you aware the account had been assigned – did you receive a Notice of Assignment? No - although they have provided a copy of the assignment notice in their bundle of docs for the hearing   Did you receive a Default Notice from the original creditor? I don't remember - but again a copy of a letter has been provided (see bundle on previous thread)   Have you been receiving statutory notices headed “Notice of Sums in Arrears”  or " Notice of Arrears "– at least once a year ?  No    Why did you cease payments?  2015   What was the date of your last payment? December 2015   Was there a dispute with the original creditor that remains unresolved?  I wrote to Barclaycard back in 2015 to ask them to send proof of the original agreement but they just sent me a reconstituted document which had no personal deals on relating to me   Did you communicate any financial problems to the original creditor and make any attempt to enter into a debt management plan? yes - step change took control and set up payments of £1 pm

    • 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.

Think I am going to have to play this one by ear

 

What I do depends on whether the SAR response comes through

 

Once I file a defence, presumably a court date is then set. This would extend the time that I have to get the SAR response. One question though - how much costs & sourt fees are added at this stage? The claim is for approx £1300 if that helps in terms of what track it gets allocated to.

 

At what point can I do the CPR thingy?

 

Cheers

Never to early, as soon as anyone is in receipt of a summons send off a CCA sect 77/78 request and a separate CPR request.

Already done a CCA request (earlierin thread) which they responded to after some delay. For the CPR - can I ask for a full breakdown of transactions and charges on the account - i.e. how do they come to the figure they are claiming? Is there a template CPR letter that also states that the defendant suspects that a large proportion of the balance is made up of charges?

The CPR wont get your full statement the CCA should give you a statement of account, maybe 2/3 months some supply a full 6 years.Have you done a DSAR previous to litigation being commenced? Do you still have access to on line banking with this account? Have you never retained any statements (hard copy) from the account?

The CCA response I received some time ago had a copy of the agreement and one statement. Claim form is from Arrow's sols. SAR was sent to MBNA approx 1 week before claim form turned up. In my SAR letter, I requested details of all charges (not just 6 years). Don't have any old statements and it was never online so no access

So if you have no statements filed and no access to the history how do you know that the claim may contain a large number of unfair charges?

On the one statement they did supply it had one £12 late fee and one £12 overlimit fee. On my equifax report (which only goes back 6 years) there are 20 late payments. Account limit was £700 and closing balance was showing at £1300. Hence it is likely that at least £240 in late charges have been applied and probably a simialr figure in overlimit fees (that's just in 6 years and I remember my finances being a mess for a long time before 2007) . That's my thinking, is it flawed? Please tell me if I'm barking up the wrong tree here. The truth may hurt but I'd rather know what I am dealing with and make the right call. (sorry for no paras - my work pc browser doesn't likle tjis forum)

Also, my recollection is that I often had charges applied to the account. That's all the info I have and unitl I get SAR response and/or CPR, I won't know for sure...

On that understanding then until you are in possession of said data and able to quantify an exact figure you would have to submit a short holding defence

with the implication that the claim is largely made up of unfair charges and it will be your intention to defend and request an accurate adjustment.

Worst scenario is you lose on all points or they might agree a settlement and drop the claim another would be that the claim is adjusted but you still get a CC(albeit for a lesser amount)

...and if I do end up with a CCJ, I can always pay up within 28 days and avoid it being placed on my credit file (nullify it) so long as the costs and fees don't mount up too high. Going to sent CPR request tomorrow so will be back on here to read threads and compsoe letter.On page 3 of this thread, ims makes some interesting points about the way that unfair charges mount up with compounded interest. Will have to look into that a bit more too

Question that has just popped into my head: Can I counterclaim for charges that are over 6 years old or not?

Well the Claimant will argue not under Statute Barred but of course that is nonsense I have seen claims go back further than 6 years

Hi

 

As Andy rightly says, you can claim back further than 6 years.

 

The basis for that is s32(1)© Limitations Act 1980. The relevant case law is Kleinwort Benson v Lincoln City Council.

 

You'll need to be familiar with these aspects in case you need to present your case in court.

 

Regards

Right - going to work on the CPR

 

Is this template the right one?: http://www.consumerwiki.co.uk/index.php/DCA:_Using_CPR_31.14_to_Your_Advantage

 

If so, I'll personalise this and add a bit about needing to know all the chages applied to the account since it was opened in 1999

Hi Mr Hat

 

The CPR31.14 is only for documents referred to in the P.o.C (if any) CPR18 would be away to inquire information re statements/charges.

Their PoC refers to an Agreement an Assignment an a Default Notice so the CPR 31.14 should take care of those.

 

With a CPR 18 request you must request information pertaining to points you raise but dont turn it in a fishing excercise.I would send both.

I'll get working on both. I did read that they may claim that they need not comply with CPR 18 if the claim is under £5k and likely to end up in small claims...

Please treatthis letter as a request under CPR part 18.

I suspect that alarge proportion of the amount being claimed is made up of chargessuch as 'late fees' and 'overlimit fees'.

I thereforerequest the following documentation:

1. A full listof transactions on the account since it was opened in November 1999including all charges and interest added. This can be in the form ofstatements or a print out of all transactions from MBNA's systems

2. Any otherdocuments that you intend to rely on in court

Iwill require this information within the next fourteen days. I mustadvise you that if the information is not forthcoming, it will bereported to the Court that you are trying to frustrate proceedingsand denying me the opportunity to file a defence and counter claim.

I do hope thiswill not be necessary and look forward to hearing from you.

thanks Andy.

 

I'll get printing and send them by recorded delivery tomorrow.

 

My final qs and then I'll stop bothering you! :-)

 

1. I have not yet acknowledged. Would it be wise to do so tomorrow especially as I have stated that I have acknowledged the form in my letters?

 

2. Seperate envelopes or same envelope? I'm assuming seperate

 

3. Which address do I send them to? Claimant (top left box) or 'Address for sending documents and payments' (box beneath Claimant box). I assume the latter but better to be sure

 

Cheers, Mr Hat
