    • In addition to the advice and questions asked by my site team colleague above, where did you get the template from which you used to reply to the letter of claim?
    • should have come here first really. What you requested was a load of irrelevant twaddle. What was the original debt? Have you moved since taking it out? If TM Legal are chasing, that should means that Perch own it now? Did you get the letter of claim by email or post? You should kill the emails immediately.

    • 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.

I have a payday loan with this company which i have defaulted on. I have cancelled by debit card so they cannot take payment. It is not a very large debt (originally £60 now over £100 with int and charges) but I cannot afford to pay it at the moment as my husband is currently out of work. I have received e-mails from them and I explained the situation. They then tried calling my mobile and then my workplace. This second phonecall was quite aggressive. the person said things like it was very poor on my part as a first time borrower etc. i asked him not to call my workplace and to remove the number from my file but he refused saying if they cannot get me on my home or mobile number they will carry on calling the office, even though i was adamant I cannot talk in working hours.

 

I offered to pay £20 a month but he said they only do weekly repayment plans so i would have to pay £20 a week! I said I could pay £5 a week but he seemed to ignore this.

 

I only want to deal with them by e-mail or post as I found his manner very unfriendly, how should I best go about this?

Hi there newlywed

 

Is it possible for you to open a new bank account and move your priority direct debits over the new one? The reason I ask is that these people, although you have cancelled your card, may have your bank details and try and set up a direct debit without you knowing.

You also need to email them requesting an arrangement for a payment plan - what YOU can afford. Do not let these people bully you, they will try every trick in the book to frighten you into paying what you cannot afford so REFUSE to speak to them on the phone. There are templates in the CAG library regarding telephone harrassment. Sorry, don't know how to do a link (d'oh!) but if you go up to the top of the page you will see "library". Just click on that and have a look around. It also does a template for requesting a payment plan. If you have any problems just post here again and you will get plenty of advice. In the meantime, don't worry hun, this is a great site and lots of these guys are brilliant with advice and support. x

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...

Just catching up with this thread. 24/7 Money Box have a right to contact you about an account unpaid, but must do so in a way that is fair and doesn't constitute harassment. The Office of Fair Trading's debt collection guidance makes it clear in sections 2.6 (a) and (j) that if the creditor knows that it is going to be publicly embarrassing for you to speak about this in your place of work, it is then against their guidelines to continue to contact you there in order to try and make you do so.
