    • Yeah I figured, unlikely I'll need credit anyway mortgage all paid off etc so I'll take that on the chin and learn from the experience. Probably would've beaten that too had I remembered the protocol, first time ever going through the process though sob it wasn't familiar to me  Oh well  
    • This is my slightly amended WS taking on board your previous comments, any suggestions for amendments would be most appreciated.  Thank you for you time.   1.        I am the Defendant in this matter. 2.        The facts in this statement come from my personal knowledge. 3.        I became aware of original Judgement following a routine credit check on or around 14th September 2020. 4.        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. 5.        The Judgement debt was not familiar to me so I began investigations to ascertain what the debt related to and how such a figure had been equated in any event. 6.        I made immediate contact with the Court, the Claimant Solicitors and the Claimants thereafter, asking them to provide me with a copy of the original loan agreement but this was not provided to me.  7.        I sent a Data Subject access Request to Barclays but no agreement was provided – See appendix 1 which details the timeline of communication between myself and Barclaycard as well as copies of correspondence between us. 8.        I do not admit to entering an agreement with Barclaycard in 2000. 9.       The claimant has failed to comply with the additional directions ordered by District Judge Davis and therefore this claim should be automatically struck out.  10.    The claimants have failed to disclose a true executed copy of the original agreement they refer to within the particulars of this claim. They are not entitled to enforce the agreement pursuant to section 78.6 (a) of the Credit Consumer Act 1974 12.   The reconstituted standard Barclaycard agreement that the claimant has included in the court bundle does not satisfy any CCA request and so the claimant is and remains in default of my CCA request and therefore unable to enforce the alleged agreement. 13.  The claimants have failed to provide proof the assignment, such as a deed of assignment. 14.  The claimant has failed to provide a statement of account setting out how the alleged debt accrued under that agreement 15.   Despite numerous requests to the claimant, I have still not seen any evidence, such as an original agreement or deed of assignment, that substantiates the claimant’s assertion that I owe the debt to the claimant, nor evidence of how the debt was accrued. 16.   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. 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.
    • A set aside application costs £275 which is more than the judgement so not worth it. Not that they would grant a set aside anyway.  Set asides are granted, for example, to people who moved and didn't get the court papers, so have a genuine reason for not defending.  Forgetting doesn't count. Your only choices are to pay up within 30 days, or defy the court and not pay.  If the latter, we've never seen a PPC enforce judgement for a single ticket, ever, you would get away without paying - but you would have a CCJ and a knackered credit file for six years.

    • 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.

Thanks for your reply. I modified the letter I found on this thread and couldn't send via their webform as it said acct not found. When I used the email address they provide on their website I got mail undelivered response from their mail server. Clearly they do not seem to be bothered by complying with anybody. I have an iPhone. I'm not sure how to block SMS but best to keep getting them as it is a paper trail of sorts to their scare tactics....

id completely agree with fkofilee. i got the same when i spoke to them 'oh, so you didnt really intend to ever pay us back then?!' great way to open negotiations! :)Id complain to the financial ombudsman, a)its harrassment and b)its obstruction - ie they cant increase a debt if you're making a concerted effort to pay it. Also I wouldnt worry about the balliff stuff. I got the 8 days to pay then the countdown, it got to the end and nothing happened then a few weeks later i got it again! basically they need a court order to make any visit like that and they know it. It's just scare tactics to get people to pay. :)

Hi,

 

I've been following this site for a while as I'm currently going through a bit of financial realignment in my life. I liked the look of it because most the responses on Money Saving Expert seemed to be along the lines of "I told you so - you deal with it!", whereas these actually seemed informed and not judgemental.

 

Foolishly I had nine payday loans and the continual rolling, reloaning etc all got a bit too much for me - a lesson lived is a lesson learnt and all that. I contacted Debt Line (I should have used CCCS in hindsight) who arranged my payment plan with the creditors - currently it all seems to be going to plan with the creditors (some of who I expected real nastiness from) except for Toothfairy Finance.

 

I took a loan of £200 for a month (£276 with interest) and defaulted - the debt has now been upped to £760 since they "passed it on" to Northern Debt Recovery. After a bit of research on here and other sites I continued to question every email they sent me and they continue to tell me that all their charges are legal and proportionate and that anything that I have read including the OFT are not accurate and should not be trusted. I copied the OFT in my final email response and surprisingly I've had nothing from them.

 

I also asked in my last email (probably foolishly) what their involvement with Marshall Hoare was - no response about that but then coincidentally Marshall Hoare began to leave me voicemails and threats of "fast tracking a CCJ". I did top this off with what their involvement was with a director with firearms convictions was - apparently that's not true either though the internet says otherwise. The final straw came when one of the multiple voicemails said that "because we can't reach a conclusion via email perhaps you'd like to phone us" - no chance.

 

Basically I would assume I'm looking at another £200 on top of this current debt as no doubt NDR will "pass" it on to Marshall Hoare - for the time being I'm playing hardball by refusing to deal with them via phone and keeping the OFT and Credit Direct in the loop, it seems Debt Line only want to deal with them when a final figure is reached and don't look to be sorting that themselves (that seems like a bit of a waste of money too!) - what I'd like to know is, does anyone know of anyone actually being taken to court by any of the above and has anyone fought to pay the actual debt and not the make believe one they've instilled against rules set by the OFT?

 

Thanks!

 

I have also had a lot of problems with this company, it turns out that Speed credit, and NDR, and Marshal Hoare are all the same company, they just use frightening letters to try and get you to pay, i have told them to take me to court but they dont, i have also had letters saying that they are coming to my house in 7 days, they dont come..... turns out they are not even certified baliffs.

Stick with the Debt management company you will be fine

Can anyone clarify the difference between a "Granted" and "Current" CCL? Refering to MHB, *may have been looking at something else for the Granted Status though*

 

P.s. Does anyone else have an error every few clicks or so on the public register?

In the event that this is not forthcoming or that they do not respond to us within a reasonable time frame we are entitled to and will return to corresponding with you directly.
  4. Their offers to date have not been acceptable.
  5. Full interest and costs will continue to accumulate during the time they negotiate with us.

2.13 of the OFT Guidelines on Debt Management ....collection actions, including default notices and litigation, can ensue and that there is no guarantee that any existing or threatened proceedings will be suspended or withdrawn

definitely not acceptable what they wrote, as mentioned above, report it to oft.

 

Also make sure that whoever manages the debt on your behalf knows about the problems and is aware that tf / speedcredit / mh / ndr are still changing the amount demanded.

Get it to the OFT as advised, they are talking through their rear ends as usual.

 

Apologies if I am really asking a stupid question but I went to OFT website and it says not to contact them direct as they don't respond to individual or trader but to go through advicedirect?

Hi, another speed credit/Toothfairy/NDR guy here.

 

I joined this site specifically to join in the complaints with this shoddy company.

 

Like many others I fell into the trap of payday loans,

 

i'm quite young, got my first "real job" and let my finances get out of control - not an excuse I know.

 

I'm trying to get myself out via a DMP with CCCS and everyone but NDR/speed credit has been reasonable and even polite.

 

The way they treat their "customers" is dreadful.

 

I'm trying to pay them back but all they are doing is making it difficult and sending threatening emails that make no sense.

 

After reading all the complaints on the internet and amount of people that have gone to the OFT, I don't understand how they are still able to operate in this manner.

 

What does it take to get them to clean up their act?

 

Is BBC watchdog a possibility?

BBC Watchdog is a possibility, the problem is obviously that they are not the government, so they can't shut a company down, so even if you managed to get Toothfairy exposed there, what would the actual result be besides bad publicity for Toothfairy? Toothfairy would probably just give the 2 - 3 people featured on watchdog some leeway and continue trading as usual.

 

Besides, there is a risk that it backfires as well, just look at wonga, they are frequently mentioned in the media in negative ways, yet in a perverted way it still works as promotion for them and they make millions.

Although watchdog won't fix the problem, it will make more people aware of the questionable behaviour involved in PDLs!

 

It is wrong how Wonga get to sponsor certain football clubs and sports and it sickens me to the bone how the most recent adverts are targetting pensioners.

 

It just goes to show they prey on the vunerable and profit from it greatly, which to me is the ethos of PDLs - I will reccomend to everyone i know to never use one!

Hey guys,

new to the forum,

 

kinda having fun with these people myself at the moment.

 

Just got a question for you

 

- can web loans processing collect toothfairy debts?

 

I have WLP contacting me with regards to my TF loan and just not sure if they are allowed to.

 

I did offer TF a payment plan for next 3 months but they are having it non of it,

 

so they can go whistle and take me to court.

 

Is toothfairy dormant,

 

if so what does that mean for us?

 

Many thanks

lingus - just ignore marshall - if you know you have paid then leave it at that - I've had dealings with them and NDR with my friend - a bunch of muppets - don't phone them, just send them a recorded letter with the proof - thats it - then get them out of your life - good luck!

 

I had TFF asking me for income proof etc - told them to whistle - still claim they need it before i can set up a plan :(
