Mobile Money

[EllyPS]

Hi

 

A mutual friend of mine & my husband (who is now my estranged husband) kindly bought a car for my husband to set up a taxi business on 1st Nov 2011. There was no business partnership, just a verbal agreement between the 3 of us that my husband would start to repay £50 per week from 2nd week in Nov to compensate our friend for loss of interest for withdrawing money from his savings account. We also agreed that from January 2012 we would start to set aside larger sums of money so that by then end of the first 12 months of the taxi business my husband would be able to repay our friend all of the money he paid for the vehicle plus the set up costs he also loaned him.

 

My husband left our family home on 1st Dec but continued to run his taxi business. He never paid a penny back to our friend although it was agreed that he should have been paying £50 per week. On Christmas Eve my husband was arrested on an assault charge & our friend took his car back only to discover that my husband had taken a loan against the vehicle with Mobile Money.

 

The issues are - my husband was not the legal owner of the car although he was the registered keeper but the V5 clearly states that it is not proof of ownership, Mobile Money state on their website that you must be the legal owner of the vehicle but they accept the V5 as proof. Mobile Money state that you need to show proof of income, my husband signed for this loan on 29th Nov - he would not have had any proof of income at that stage. The CA and BOS are signed by the same person - an employee of Mobile Money, also they show different figures for monthly repayments.

 

Can my friend argue that the BoS is invalid to protect his vehicle - it's locked away at the moment as he is afraid to use it in case MM turn up to take it away.

 

Thanks

As per my response to your other post:

 

To answer your question, even though the purchase of the car was through a friend, the legality of who owns the car would be your husband (Unless a contractual agreement was signed prior to the car being bought). You friend under the data protection act, wouldn't be able to discuss anything with regards to the mobile money account with mobile money, as the loan lays with your husband and so couldn't even challenge the BOS as that is also in your husbands name.

 

Now depending on when your husband took out the loan with Mobile Money, the DVLA have recently issued and still in the process of issuing new V5 documents, which if the original V5 document is green and being held by mobile money, then the V5 is invalid and can no longer be used.

 

Now if your friend has proof that he is the legal owner, then the BOS and Credit Agreement do become invalid, as the money would be classed as fraudulently obtained by your husband. Valid proof would be a BOS from the place the car was bought, with your friends signature as ownership on the BOS and valid receipts of money to the amount of the car going from your friends account IE: Credit Card Transaction. With these and a good solicitor, it can then be argued that the money was obtained fraudulently and that though your husband is on the V5, the ownership belongs to some else.

 

Without anything as valid proof and I hate to be blunt, but your friend would be up a creek without a paddle and it would be down to your husband to either pay off the loan or contest the BOS.

Hi I have to say I have been through all this.

I have had a satisfatory result to my case.

Is your husband willing to help you?

I will send you the link to my Thread as soon as I have concluded it today.

In the mean time keep the car hid preferably in a locked garage MM will definitly come for it and when your husband borrowed the money he would have had to give 3 references of people who MM could contact if the payments are not made.

It is a very difficult case to prove that a company such as MM otherwise known as Log Book Loans have done anything wrong if your husband was the registered keeper and had all the documents in his name.

My advice would be to get the owner of the car along with proof of purchase to go at 9am to your local county court and apply for an emergency court order to prevent MM from repocessing the car until you have made further enquiries. But as previously stated he will need to prove that he is the LEGAL Owner, with bill of sale and proof of were the money came from.

I got an order on the day although it cost £175.00 mine was to prevent MM from selling my car (Different Story)

If you are in contact with your husband and the car is registered at your home, I suggest he applies for a new log book V5 and get your friend to register the car in his name, he will have to explain to the DVLA if he wants to avoid another keeper on his car. The debt will follow the car no matter what until you get to court but you should be able to use the car without it being taken if the court listens to your EMERGENCY case. (GET THERE EARLY)

i recieved lots of help here and my case was similar i will post link soon and hope it helps

Hi

Thank you for all this advice.

Good News! Yesterday my friend received a call from the operations director at Mobile Money to say they will no longer be pursuing the car and will return the V5 and MOT to him!! Apparently they will directly pursue my estranged husband for HIS debt, I have had an email confirming this. Let's see if they are true to their word!

 

Thanks again!!!!!!

You should first of all approach the lender for an answer, before you get carried away, I should know.

Last time I got a nice payoff/discount due to LogBook Loans tactics

Hi thank you for your advice,i had raised a complaint to a David Nicholls i got a response from the director who replied that he could not uphold ,my complaint ,so i responded to him with detailed incidents with the bailiff and my neighbours and residents,ask him to re- investigate which the company director has confirmed he will do so.

no one has any idea how am having to face residents everytime i step out of my house ,enquiring and questioning why the bailiff from mobile money is discussing my personnel details and exhibiting copies of my photo ID ,bailiff has made me look like a criminal.i just want the whole issue to be dealt in an amicable manner,not only thatthe bailiff also advised me of how the london branch manager does not follow the company procedure and the tactics that are used are illegal,and still they carry on bullying victimise and harrass vulnerable customers,i just hope the director is honest enough to see that wrong has been done to me and others if there is someone else. thank you i will update you once i have a response.

What was the outcome here?

 

And remember, they are not bailiffs, just a bully boy vehicle removal firm employed by MM to intimidate you.

 

Try googling "Denial of Access Rights" for some template letters. But i doubt that it would work. Simon Furnival (owner), Mobile Money and their inbred staff think they are above the law and couldnt care less how they treat their customers. I know, I went through it all with them, and once they realised I was playing them for fools, they backed off and left me alone.

 

Hide your car and have a good nights sleep, and if pinky and perky turn up at ungodly hours, record them on your mobile phone and LET THEM KNOW YOU'RE RECORDING THEM TOO.

 

UKD!

Hi Thank you

Well Simon furnival sent a respone to me with his findings. He has admitted that the reps were not bailiffs and that also apologised and confirmed that the reps would not be given copies of the agreement or any data and apologises for the inconvnience and then thanked me for bringinig it to his attention and also stated that the response sent to me would be his final response to my complaint about the data protection breach and that would await the ombudsman decision which we are,as for the damages and the humiliation for exhibiting my documents and the agreement copies all i get is an apology ,Simon has no idea what i have suffered and still suffering,i awaitthe response from the ombudsman and theni will take further for defamation of character n the data protection breach. will update you as soon as i get a response. tinsel31

Simon Furnival couldnt, and wont care less what the ombudsman's decision is.

 

We had a court order against Mobile Money ORDERING them to remove a clamp they had put on my car. They had until 3pm on the day to remove it, and they totally ignored the court order. Luckily a samaritan removed the clamp when nobody was watching (ive heard they got £80 for it on eBay too )

 

Just be careful about this bunch of inbreds. They care not about anything apart from getting money from you. If it means breaking the law, in their eyes...... so be it.

 

UKD.

Thanx Hun will do i have a solicitor involved and until the ombudsman make a decision they have suspended possesion of my vehicle on the grounds that i pay 10.00 a week towards my debt,which is difficult at present but as simon put it in writing to myself solicitor n the ombudsman i still doubt his confirmation ,
