Turnball Rutherford Solicitors have just delivered a Stat Demand for Statute Barred Debt** DISCONTINUED**

[broken arrow]

Issued Date: 26-Mar-2008 Expiry Date: 26-Mar-2013

[Hants38]

I have in Black and white an assignment letter from HFO Capital Limited assignment date of 31st January 2008. This was sent with the CPR request to TR

 

So technically they have conducted a criminal offence then under s39 Consumer Credit Act 1974. I think I will mention this to a certain Spiv

I would just concentrate on your set aside applications at the Mo, but you should though write to the OFT and make complaints.

[Hants38]

Hi BA anyone would think you are trying to shut these bugg£rs down hehehe!!! No I shall indeed complain.

 

I am concentrating on the Setasidebut my question is how can the British Justice System be so wrong in allowing a company with no Credit Licence to take people to court and win judgements against them. Yet knowingly (I assume they know by now with all the posts on the internet about HFO) they do not prosecute HFO for undertaking a known Criminal Offence????

 

It's mad!!!

[dadofholly]

The OFT are looking into it - and hopefully will make good progress

[DonkeyB]

Hants, where are we at? Did you get a copy of the claim form from your bestest mates at Turnbullsh*t Rutherford?

[Hants38]

Hi everyone I ended up at court and saw mr Bolton in person.

 

Stat demand was set aside and ccj has been removed.

 

So thank you to everyone on here for helping.

 

I do know that TR will be on the case again as he did say to me afterwards your not going to give up without a fight are you.

 

I'll post up the next steps when they arrive. He did gloat though about having my debt 2 months prior to obtaining their CCL and said although it is a criminal offence I am not the OFT and under a certain section on the CCA only the OFT can act on this.

 

Basically he says it means nothing

[sillygirl1]

Thats what he thinks, pity you didn't get that in writing or record his little effort at intimidating you.

 

It DOES mean something, and if it had meant NOTHING as he stated then why was the SD AND the CCJ both set aside? If it had meant something then this would not have happened.

 

Big talking man has small brain (and other body parts).

I cannot express my opinion of these persons (stewards that work in a bar) without getting another warning from CAG. However 'Well done you' and I am so pleased!I hope that you have sent a full report to OFT, you must do this immediately! these people are in serious poo poo

[broken arrow]

Well done, should have told bongoloid to stick to DJing.

Report his comments and intimidation to Polly Ashford at the OFT.

So they are aware it is a criminal offence, tough luck HFO the OFT are acting on this, bye bye.......

This is a must.

Report that conversation to the OFT and the solicitors regulation authority.

 

A Criminal Act is not just something to do with the OFT and not you. He is talking crap.

 

Strange that in another case i know of they gave a different reason.

 

Did they not defend that point in the hearing?

Reading through your thread again i have not come accross any evidence such as an agreement, T&C's etc. Have you ever been sent these?

[stu007]

Hi Hants38

 

Read your thread with interest great news on getting this set aside.

 

I may be wrong but could i suggest that you check your Credit File online and see what searches if any have been carried out by any of these DCAs mentioned.

[sillygirl1]

Yes, don't forget to make sure these details are REMOVED from your files, give the CRAS's grief now if they pass you back to the OC, quote the court case and state as CCJ REMOVED details need to be REMOVED and file adjusted accordingly.

 

Yes too to complaining to Polly Ashford about the plank's comments, he needs to go on the TR Revoke Licence with a comment like that, knowingly aiding and abetting a criminal act is VERY SERIOUS if you are a solicitor - Uncle Alice is already under fire, his minions should receive likewise.

[coledog]

Yes agree. That conversation needs to go into a OFT Witness Statement, you must get onto them ASAP

[Hants38]

I will do that this weekend guys and gals and am now preparing myself for the next letter and court action from them.

 

I'll keep you all updated especially with the OFT. thanks

[sillygirl1]

If there is any further court action from them simply cross reference this case and the game is well and truly up. Complete abuse of process if they try again, nothing will have materially changed from the orginal CCJ, except of course additional interest and that alone is not enough to bring a second claim.

[Hants38]

Well I have recieved a whole load of new paper work from them according to my other half. I guess i'll see when I get back home.

 

Interesting though I just checked them out on company's house and on company check http://companycheck.co.uk/company/05717402 they sound more like a one man band no wonder they use students (erm trainee spivs).

 

HFO is even better check out these figures http://companycheck.co.uk/company/05120067 these figures to me look more like a one/two man band outfit. Not the corporate empire they appear to give their unsuspecting victims.

 

Just out of interest they are obviously going down the original debt route and claim my last payment date was in December 2006, I cannot prove this but they have sent some extremely bad statement (supposed statements) with no header or footer and bear no resemblance to any statements I have ever seen. Whats more is I did a SAR to Barclays who insist even in writing they never owned my account yet HFO claim to have bought the said debt from Barclays. Any help burying these guys for good would be appreciated.
