    • Thanks dx for your kind words. I plan to renew my season ticket and write a new begging letter as following, can I ask for any suggestion about it?   Dear Investigator/Prosecutor,   Thank you for your reply. I deeply regret my actions and the inconvenience they have caused.   I’m extremely remorseful for my crime. and regret it everyday. I often ask myself ‘’how can I do that thing just because I felt it is interesting. There are a lot of crimes in the world, but feeling it’s interesting is certainly not a reason to crime. I should not crime with any reason.’’ I think about these things every day, and I understand that I can’t blame anyone but myself.   I thanks to the staff who stopped me, as this is a valuable lesson in my life. I told myself that I should never ever repeat such a thing again, and never ever do anything which is possible to be in breach of any law. As a result, I carefully tap my oyster card every time before I enter the station now. I remind myself that I did a wrong thing before, and I should never let it happen again.   Although my monthly travel expenses do not warrant a season ticket, but I just renew my season ticket (please see the attachment). I understand that a crime cannot be truly compensated for, but purchasing a season ticket offers me a small measure of comfort, knowing that my actions caused a loss to the public interest.   I received an email which ask me to negotiate being class teacher in this summer (please see the attachment). I hope that I could teach the lovely students again, which may not be allowed with a criminal record. I would please ask that you would please provide me a single opportunity to settle all outstanding sums owed outside of court without the need for legal proceedings which would have a determinantal impact on my teaching career.   I sincerely apologise again for my crime. If you need anything further from me to help you please let me know.    Yours sincerely,
    • You did what??? You asked them to send you the documents that without them you had  a 100% ironclad win in Court. Why on earth would you do that? As it happens in this case, there is still enough mistakes in their PCNs and the NTH to have your case cancelled. Amd it may be that not sending those documents in the first place along with the ICO complaint and the letters from Alliance themselves which would confirm by the dates on the letters may be enough to cancel it anyway. I hope you have kept their letters as evidence? The chances are that Alliance will not actually take you to Court because of their errors but you never know.  You have made so much extra work for yourself in your WS if they decide to push their luck.though. Can you please post up their letter where they give the reason why I wasn't sent with the NTH.
    • I'm not sure that I fully agree with my site team colleague above.  My understanding is that there is nothing to stop you recording but it is strictly for your own personal use.   
    • I live in a student house, with 5 tenants, unihomes is our utilities provider, who we each have a direct debit set up with and have paid each bill every month. Two letters were sent in my name by BWLegal saying I had two outstanding payments due adding up to over £3500, I have tried to contact british gas (as that is apparently our houses provider) as well as Unihomes. Nothing has helped and BWlegal are pursuing legal action if these debts are not resolved by the 1st May. What do I do? I've called Bwlegal when i bring up that the debt isnt for me and for unihomes they hang up on me. so I am stressed and do not know what to do
    • cant do either if its not in a public place or on your land. dx

    • 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.

when you took out the loan in 98 were you self employed or what was your situation as most ppi insurances at the time were very dubious and most peeps were co ersed into taking out these sort of deals without choice so i would be reclaiming but you need to look at the ppi thread how to reclaim and get it in it may now even knock a few thou off the debt

Hi patrick, is this re: my link thread? my husband was employed at the time, but they made it clear that if we didn't take out the PPI, then we wouldn't be likely to get the loan, even though it was apparently optional. I will have a look at the ppi thread, but not sure how much it will be that I am claiming back at the moment. Will try to get something started though anyway. Thanks again, magda

also write a complaint to the FSA concerning your PPI that you were forced to purchase this product without it your loan would have been refused and they have refused to send you any details /data concerning the PPI who it is from and what the policy entails and also you are still being penalised for a policy that is of no use to you they have also refused to give you the repayments data you have already made and are demanding full compensation plus intrests

see how that goes on its also in the FSA website how to register your complaint concerning the ppi reclaims

I have recently had a claim brought against me by Asset (that is a separate link). The thing is, I have just read on another thread http://www.consumeractiongroup.co.uk/forum/payment-protection-insurance-ppi/101677-me-welcome-ppi-struggling.html that if the total amount of credit i.e, 15payments x £65 (for example) = £975.00 is not shown, then the agreement is not properly executed. My own agreement with First National (now Asset Link) just gives number of instalments and amount of repayments (as it did in this person's case) but not the actual total amount repayable which in my case would be £4076.40. The actual amount of borrowing is the only figure quoted which was £1741 (including the PPI). So where do I actually stand on this? any help much appreciated as I'm running out of ideas as far as the court case is concerned (apart from the PPI) Magda

The courts have also clearly stated that if a creditor does not follow these obligations exactly then they are not entitled to the benefit of the contract:-

 

1.In the case of Dimond v Lovell [2000] UKHL 27, Lord Hoffmann said , at page 1131:-

 

“Parliament intended that if a consumer credit agreement was improperly executed, then subject to the enforcement powers of the court, the debtor should not have to pay.”

 

2.Sir Andrew Morritt, Vice Chancellor in Wilson v First County Trust Ltd [2001] EWCA Civ 633 said at para 26 that in the case of an unenforceable agreement:-

 

“The creditor must…be taken to have made a voluntary disposition, or gift, of the loan monies to the debtor. The creditor had chosen to part with the monies in circumstances in which it was never entitled to have them repaid;”

 

3.When this case was appealed to the House of Lords on a matter regarding the Human Rights Act (Wilson & Ors v Secretary of State for Trade and Industry [2003] UKHL 40), Lord Nicholls of Birkenhead said:-

 

49 The message to be gleaned from sections 65, 106, 113 and 127 of the Consumer Credit Act is that where a court dismisses an application for an enforcement order under section 65 the lender is intended by Parliament to be left without recourse against the borrower in respect of the loan… when legislation renders the entire agreement inoperative, to use a neutral word, for failure to comply with prescribed formalities the legislation itself is the primary source of guidance on what are the legal consequences. Here the intention of Parliament is clear.

Am today gonna write to my credit card companies asking for copies of the CCA - wot shall i do about my signature? have read that they can scan it in - shall i just use a different font as my signature? also, should i send cheques or postal orders?

Re. signature: you can print or create a digital signature & insert that on all your corresp. I use Online Personal Signature Maker - MyLiveSignature - Free Personal Signature Generator (it's free) but there are others out there.

Re. payments: Don't send a cheque - 'cos it has your signature on! And as you say, it can be scanned by the unscrupilious. PO's are advisable.

Any knowledge I possess or advice I proffer is based solely on my experiences in the University of Life. Please make your own assessment of legality, risks & costs before taking any action.

Hi There,

I applied for a CCA 2 months ago, have followed their non communication with another letter to say they are in breach of their contract and that I will be taking action against them in 14 days without prior notice.

 

They have replied to say they are still awaiting the original CCA from the lender and will be in touch shortly.

 

What do I do now? Send a solicitors letter?

 

Thanks

No, I would just ignore them now and see what happens. If they do not manage to provide a CCA then all good and well. However, some of them do suddenly materialise after many months, as they suddenly manage to obtain it from the original creditor. This has happened to me. For the time being you are perfectly entitled to cease payments until such time that an enforceable CCA is forthcoming. Or, if you wish, you can continue to make payments. Up to you. Magda

Sorry to jump into this discussion guys and gals, but when you get a chance once you've finished can anyone make sense of this and the 40% rule?

 

Schedule 1 items 1-4

 

http://www.opsi.gov.uk/si/si2008/pdf/uksi_20080831_en.pdf

 

Could make a lot of secured lending be viewed quite differently in my opinion...seems odd though..
