    • In short you never communicate with a Debt Collector, they have no power here at all. The snotty letter is only used to respond to a properly worded Letter Before Claim. The only time you would be recommended to contact the PPC is to send the snotty letter. You do nothing but keep the tripe they send you unless you receive a letter before claim.
    • Probably to do with the Creditor accepting the reduced payments claim as part of the IVA. - Thats my guess anyway.  As for the mount outstanding... 60k is incredible and im pretty sure a DRO wouldnt cover that much even after the new legislation.    For you @Alfy - Please stay headstrong and stop worrying. My viewpoint on debt with debt collectors is simple. You are a figure on a spreadsheet loaded into a database for them to run a collection cycle through.  They dont care about emotions or your situation, they just care about paying off their shareholders and trying to turn a profit.  They use varying tactics to increase the pressure on you to the point where you will break. People then fall for this an either cave in to DCAs before doing their own due diligence on the debts that are purchased or turn to IVAs like you have.    They are better ways to handle this and Im glad you feel better after a good nights sleep - I hope you can keep it up. 
    • Good afternoon,    I am writing in reference to the retail dispute number ****, between myself and Newton Autos concerning the sale of a Toyota Avensis which has been found to have serious mechanical faults.    As explained previously the car was found to be faulty just six days after purchase. The car had numerous fault codes that appeared on the dash board and went into limp mode. This required assistance from the AA and this evidence has already been provided. The car continues to exhibit these faults and has been diagnosed as having faults with the fuel injectors which will require major mechanical investigation and repairs.    Newton Autos did not make me aware of any faults upon purchase of the vehicle and sold it as being in good condition.    Newton Autos have also refused to honour their responsibilities under The Consumer Rights Act 2015 which requires them to refund the customer if the goods are found to be faulty and not fit for purpose within 30 days of purchase.    Newton Autos also refused to accept my rejection of the vehicle and refused to refund the car and accept the return of the vehicle.    It is clear to me that the car is not fit for purpose as these mechanical faults occurred so soon after purchase and have been shown to be present by both the AA and an independent mechanic.   Kind regards
    • Commercial Landlords are legally allowed to sue for early cancellation of the lease. You can only surrender your lease if your landlord agrees to your doing so. They are under no obligation even to consider your request and are entitled to refuse. You cannot use this as an excuse not to pay your rent. Your landlord is most likely to agree to your surrendering the lease if they want the property back in order to redevelop it, or if they wants to rent it to what they regards as a better tenant or at a higher rent. There are two types of surrender: Express surrender in writing. This is a written document which sets out the terms of the surrender. Implied surrender by conduct. (applies to your position) You can move out of the property you leased, simply hand your keys back and the lease will come to an end, but only if the landlord agrees to accept your surrender. Many tenants have thought they can simply post the keys through the landlord's letter box and the lease is ended. This is not true and without a document from the landlord, not only do you not know if the landlord has accepted the surrender, you also do not know on what basis they have accepted and could find they sue you for rent arrears, service charge arrears, damage to the property and compensation for your attempt to leave the property without the landlord's agreement. Unless you are absolutely certain that the landlord is agreeable to your departure, you should not attempt to imply a surrender by relying on your and the landlord's conduct.  
    • I had to deal with these last year worst DCA I have ever dealt with. Just wait for the constant threats of CCJ and how you'll lose in court and how they won't do mediation and they want the judge to question you with a load of "BIG" words to boot with the letter. My case was struck out in the end, stupidity on their part as I admitted to owing the debt in the end going through the court process was just a formality as they wouldn't let it drop despite me admitting the debt regardless. They didn't send the last part of the court paper work in so it ended up being struck out     .

    • 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,

 

 

I have applied for a HSBC loan for 7500 pounds but have been referred online, When I rung up the customer service rep. was also surprised along with his supervisor of why I have been rejected. My case has been forwarded to a team for review.

 

What I don't understand is, that I have never missed a single DD payment ever in my life. I had a HSBC loan for 2,000 which I settled a day before applying so that I have no loan with HSBC, which should have been a good thing as I have settled the loan early. I have an overdraft, a credit card with vanquis.

 

I have a permanent income which is well above the average wage as I'm a higher education lecturer.

 

I've been told by HSBC over the phone that I'll be contacted in one working day i.e. Saturday (as they are open on Saturday).

I really don't know what has happened as I have never even missed a single dd for my TV license. HSBC have really put me off because I have been banking with them for such a long time and have such a good history with them.

 

I hope HSBC get back to me with good news, but I don't understand why I was referred online, as I had settled my existing loan a day before, and I had never missed a single payment for that loan. So why have I been referred.

 

Kind Regards

I'd personally advise you not to go with HSBC. To cut a long story short, HSBC put a "default" on my credit file WITHOUT notifying me and I couldnt get a mortgage for a house last year as my credit checks came back failed several times. So in the end I purchased my credit file and it said "HSBC Default of £216.49" which wasnt my fault in the first place.

 

Now if they didnt notify me that they we're going to do doubt they would discuss your refusal.

 

You should be able to get credit with a good credit record. Make sure you dont have any defaults on there.

 

Personally I would go with TSB or Natwest for bankign/credit etc.

 

Goodluck and let us know the outcome.

I went all the way to court to seek compensation for "damage to creditworthiness" against HSBC. I lost unfortunately.

I have had a call from them saying that they will be offering me an APR of 17.4% after doing some FURTHER checks! I mean they had an offer on for 6.2% APR, and now this is what they are doing. They have given me a further 48 hours waiting time for the final checks! I have been banking with HSBC for so long, last time I applied for a loan for 2000, It was in my bank account in 5 minuted, I have settled that loan and don't know why this time they are taking so long. I have banked with HSBC all my life and they are the only ones I bank with.

Further to this, HSBC have been telling me to transfer my credit card with them for so long, everytime I ring them, after this hassle should I really transfer my credit card with HSBC?

you shouldnt always restrict yourself to 1 bank!! If you have a few accounts and remain good with the different banks this allows a good relationship for you and the banks to establish!! So such issues can be resolved a lot quicker!

with regard to the rate of the loan, you may just simply be in the wrong postcode

 

You can have a perfect payment history but if you live in an area where a number of people have failed to pay then you are tarred with the same brush unfortunately....

Don't put all your eggs in one basket, HSBC can be tricky to deal with. Dealing with them for years, if you can get the best rate credit card you can, but not with your bank. I have found Natwest to be very good and supportive through hard times, I also have Barclays for day to day.
