    • This time you do need to reply to them with a snotty letter to show you'd be big trouble for them if they did try court. We will help this evening.  
    • Hi, I just wanted to update the post and ask some further advice  I sent the CCA and CPR request on the 14th May, to date I have had no reply to the CCA but I received a load of paperwork from the CPR request a few days ago. I need to file the defence today and from the information I have read the following seems to be what is required.  I would be grateful if some one could confirm suitability. Many thanks   Claim The claim is for the sum of £255.69 due by the Defendant under an agreement regulated by the Consumer Credit Act 1974 for a PayPal account with an account reference of xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx)  The Defendant failed to maintain contractual payments required by the agreement and a Default Notice was served under s.87(1) of the Consumer Credit Act 1974 which has not been complied with. The debt was legally assigned to the claimant on 15-09-21, notice of which has been given to the defendant. The claim includes statutory interest under S.69 of the County Courts Act 1984 at a rate of 8% per annum from the date of assignment to the date of issue of these proceedings in the sum of £0.00. The Claimant claims the sum of £255.69   Defence  The Defendant contends that the particulars of claim are vague and generic in nature. The Defendant accordingly sets out its case below and relies on CPR r 16.5 (3) in relation to any particular allegation to which a specific response has not been made. 1. Paragraph 1 is noted. I have had financial dealings with PayPal  in the past but cannot recollect the account number referred to by the Claimant. 2. Paragraph 2 is denied. I am not aware of service of a Default Notice by the original creditor the Claimant refers to within its particulars of claim.  3. Paragraph 3 is noted. On the 14/5/2024 I requested information related to this claim by way of a Section 77 request, which was received and signed for by the claimant on 20/5/2024. As of today, the Claimant has failed to respond to this request, and therefore remains in default of the section 77 request and therefore unable to enforce any alleged agreement until its compliance. 4. Therefore it is denied with regards to the Defendant owing any monies to the Claimant, and the Claimant is put to strict proof to: (a) Show how the Defendant has entered into an agreement and: (b) Show the nature of the breach and evidence by way of a Default Notice Pursuant to s.87(1) of the Consumer Credit Act 1974. 5. Paypal (Europe) S.A.R.L is out of the juristriction of English Courts. 6. As per Civil Procedure 16.5 it is expected that the Claimant prove the allegation that the money is owed. 7. By reason of the facts and matters set out above, it is denied that the Claimant is entitled to the relief claimed, or any relief.
    • Thanks @dx100ukI followed the advice given on here... then it went very quiet!  The company was creditfix I think then transferred to Knightsbridge (or the other way around) The scammer independent advisor was Roger Wallis-having checked his LinkedIn profile just this morning, it does look like he's still scamming vulnerable people... I know I was stupid for taking his advice, but i do wonder how many others he has done this to over a longer period of time (it came as a  massive shock to him when our IVA suddenly failed). Lowell have our current address (and phone numbers if the rejected calls over the past couple of days is anything to go by!) No point trying the SB because of the correspondence in 2019? Thanks
    • I have received the following letter from BW Legal today.  Also includes form if I admit the debt and wanting my income details.  Do I reply to this LETTER OF CLAIM please?  Looks like they are ready for court now??  Thank You BW Legal - Letter of Claim.pdf

    • 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.

Hi,

 

This post is on behalf of a family member, who has been mis-sold PPI on a Barclays personal loan.

 

The story goes that he took out the PPI as he was led to believe that it would help his application, i.e. might not get the loan if he didn't accept it; also he is and was at the time self-employed.

 

Some time into the loan he suffered a bad broken leg, which had complications and meant that he was unable to work for quite some time. He claimed on his PPI and was duly paid for (a maximum) of two months, before they stopped the payments on the basis that his self-employment made him ineligable to claim. He doesn't believe that any premiums or interest were refunded.

 

It gets a little bit more complicated, because a couple of years after the original loan was taken out he borrowed some more, so a new loan was taken out and the old one paid off. I'm not sure if the new loan had any PPI, but he thinks he still has the paperwork available (which I will post up as soon as poss).

 

I've attached the original loan agreement, which refers to terms overleaf, although there is nothing on the reverse.

 

Could I just have some advice on whether he can claim and some pointers on how?

 

Thanks

OK, so we really have to get the details of the second loan and whether there was PPI on that too. Surely the bank wouldn't have sold a second PPI policy, that would be mad!

 

As Arnie says 'I'll be back'

 

Thanks again ims

Yeah...good innit?

 

This is one of the ways that our "respected" banks managed to fleece us. Sell you a useless policy on loan 1, roll it into loan 2 and possible sell you a useless policy on loan 2 as well.

 

In any event, even of they did not sell you a loan 2 policy, there would have been a rollover from loan 1 unless they rebated the loan 1 ppi fully.....which in my experience is highly unlikely.

 

Yes, get that loan 2 agreement.

Beggers belief really.

 

Just out of interest (excuse the pun) what rate do we apply to the spreadsheets to include restitution? Same as we discussed over on my other thread?

Hi

 

You'll have to decide first whether you are going to go the court route or fos route. fos would award premiums plus the bank's interest plus 8% statutory.

 

For a court action you can go for a higher rate in restitution but you wouldn't claim the 8% as well.

 

As we know, fos do all the work but can take time.....court is quicker but you do a lot of work.

 

You could approach them initially for the amount fos would award since if they ay up straight away, you'll have a nice amount back with virtually no work. If they decline then you can pass to foss to get what you want or you can take the court route and go for a higher rate at that time.

 

There are different spreadsheets to use for loans as opposed to credit cards.

 

Regards

Thanks for the quick responses ims,

 

Obviously it is up to the victim to decide, I shall explain both routes as best I can. Let's say he decides to go direct for what the FOS would award, bank rate + 8%, when is the 8% applied to the claim? Sorry, just want to get things straight so he can make an informed decision.

PS. Yes, I noted that there were links to spreadsheets via your signature point 1 thread.

Hi

 

The 8% is charged on each of the ppi payments made (including the bank's interest) and runs from the date of the payment to the date of settlement. The claim to this interest is submitted as part of the initial claim.

OK, I see the statutory interest spreadsheet, but which one do you use for the bank rate calculations? Little bit confuddled!

Hi

 

What you do is work out from the agreement what percentage the PPI was of the total loan. Let's suppose it is 10%. Now, since the repayment include part capital and part interest, if you take 10% of that repayment then that is the amount that is going towards the ppi and the bank's interest on that ppi. So that bank's interest is taken care of.

 

You enter that 10% of each monthly repayment into the 8% spreadie and the sheet calculates the 8%.

So just as an excercise to see if I understand fully, if I take the agreement above as an example, I should calculate as follows:

 

Loan Principle = £8,500.00 + PPI Principle £1,710.06 = £10,210.06

 

£1,710.06 / £10,210.06 (result x 100) = 16.75% (rounded up to nearest decimal)

 

so the PPI portion of the monthly repayment is: 16.75% of £219.57, which is £36.78 (rounded up) BTW I cheated here because I couldn't for the life of me remember how to work it out, could you refresh my very bad memory on this formula please ims.

 

Anyhow, so £36.78 is the charge amount to use in the spready, I believe?

 

 

Thanks,

Which formula do you want me to refresh you on?......don't follow you :noidea:

I know I should know it and I did, but have since forgotten: How to calculate the the PPI amount i.e 16.75% of £219.57 = £36.78 (I used an online calculator :oops:)

 

Cheers,

Hi ims,

 

Right, I have some further details now, but I will recap what I have so far because I want to check my sums.

 

Loan 1 - March 2002, £8,500 over 60 months.

 

Loan Principle = £8,500

PPI Principle = £1,710.06

 

PPI Percentage = 16.75%

 

Monthly Repayments = £219.57

PPI Monthly Amount = £36.78 (16.75% of £219.57)

 

In Feb 2005 loan 2 was taken out for the amount of £10,000, over 60 months. No PPI this time.

 

So I calculated, using the loan analysis sheet, that 34 payment were made on the original loan leaving a balance of £5,084.97, which was rolled over to the new loan.

 

Of that balance, 16.75% relates to the PPI balance = £851.73

 

£851.73 as a percentage of £10,000 = 8.52%

 

The repayments were £210.57, so 8.52% of this figure is £17.94, which represents the amount per month for rolled over PPI.

 

Q1. Am I calculating this correctly?

 

The other question that I have relates to the spread sheets, if I may explain:

 

At this stage, it has not been decided which route that he wants to pursue (FOS 8%SI or Court 24.9%). So I wanted to produce two sheets showing what the claim amounts would be for each route.

 

For the FOS I used StatIntSheet.xls which amounts to around £3,500 (approx)

 

For the Court route, I used CISheetU.xls at 24.9%, which comes out at approx' £10,500

 

However, as a test to check the figures between the two sheets, if I change the CISheet.xls to 8% the figures don't match. The claim amount comes out at around £3,800 as opposed to £3,500.

 

So either I have cocked up the CISheetU.xls sheet when cutting and pasting the data columns or the two sheets calculate interest slightly differently!

 

Q2. Could you please enlighten me as to where I have gone wrong, if i have. Am I using the wrong spreadsheet for the CI?

 

EDIT: Sorry I forgot to ask this originally:

 

Q3. Should it be decided that this goes the court route, which track (or court) would it take. i.e Small Claims or County?

As the claim for charges is around £2,400, but the total with interest (£8,200 approx) in restitution, would be in the region of £10,500. ?????????

 

Thanks again in advance.

Hi Master Chief,

I believe that the 8% stat interest is simple interest whereas the CI sheet is compound interest. So putting the 8% into the CI sheet would be giving you compounded interest instead of simple hence the higher figure.

Also with the claim again I think so long as the claim without interest is below £5000 then small claims is where you go. You would be asking the judge to consider interest in restitution instead of simple.

If I'm wrong then someone will hopefully correct me.

 

 

Thanks xboxer, that all makes sense. Will have to check that I haven't buggered up the sheet another way, hopefully not by having to retype all the data, aaaaarrrrggggh!

 

BTW: Your username, do I take it that you are a fellow gamer or does it have pugilistic connotations?

All of the above....Spot On.

The other question that I have relates to the spread sheets, if I may explain:

So either I have cocked up the CISheetU.xls sheet when cutting and pasting the data columns or the two sheets calculate interest slightly differently!

 

The statutory interest sheet uses simple interest....the CI sheet uses compound interest so the calcs will always be different as you are not comparing apples with apples

 

Q2. Could you please enlighten me as to where I have gone wrong, if i have. Am I using the wrong spreadsheet for the CI?

 

EDIT: Sorry I forgot to ask this originally:

 

Q3. Should it be decided that this goes the court route, which track (or court) would it take. i.e Small Claims or County?

As the claim for charges is around £2,400, but the total with interest (£8,200 approx) in restitution, would be in the region of £10,500. ?????????

 

For that amount you need to be prepared for it to be handled outside small claims and this then opens up the question of costs should the case be lost.

 

Thanks again in advance.
