    • I see they're trying to round up asylum seekers and lock them up for about three months so they can be put on planes to Rwanda. I'm a bit surprised that this is legal.  
    • thought for the day "Prime ministers need a big strategy that tells you where you’re going, you need a bunch of tactics that get you there, and you need the ability to take everybody else with you."   Now I know you are all thinking 'why is the  UKs destination Rwanda ???
    • Asset Link filed for a default CCJ against me, in relation to an old Barclaycard debt which I apparently signed an agreement for back in 2000.   I did not own a Barclaycard in 2000 so I know this is not true.  The CCJ notice was sent to an old address so I did not receive it.  Years later when I found out about the CCJ when I applied for credit, I put an application in to have the CCJ set aside.   As part of the set aside case, I was asked by the judge to provide a draft defence, should the CCJ be set aside.   The defence I provided was that I did not admit to the debt as I had not been provided with any evidence of an original loan agreement.   I won the case and the CCJ was set aside.   Link then filed to court again to make me pay the debt.   We both filed directions questionnaires and the judge allocated the claim to the small claims track.   As part of the directions, additional directions given were as follows ' Additional Directions in a claim for an Assigned Debt - Because the claim is in respect of an assigned debt the Court makes the following directions for the management of claim.  The claim shall be automatically struck out at 4pm on 3 April 2024 unless, before that time, the Claimant delivers to the Court and to the Defendant the following documents'  It then listed various documents such as an original agreement, deed of assignment, notice of default, statement of account setting out how the alleged debt accrued under that agreement etc.     The Claimant failed to provide these documents within the deadline provided and instead I received a copy of a bundle of documents provided by them in preparation for the court date, this was received weeks after the deadline.    I have called the Court to ask if it has been automatically struck out and they advised that it is not automatic and that I should still send my witness statement by the deadline provided, which is Wednesday.  This does not give me much time to prepare my witness statement.   I have never done anything like this before and I am unclear what my witness statement should include.  My thoughts were that I should keep it simple and stick to the facts, like the fact thy have not provided evidence of the original agreement, or the deed of assignment of the debt.   They have provided a copy of a default notice from Baclaycard dated 2015, this states a figure of £550 but the debt they say I owe is £10k.   I am not sure what makes a valid default notice?   I have previously requested proof of the debt from Barclaycard directly and have evidence of emails between us where they have been unable to provide me with the agreement or any documents at all relating to the debt.   Should I include these as an appendix?  Are there any other documents I should include in my bundle?    I have also tried to mediate with the claimants, to save the court costs and time, on a without prejudice basis, but the claimants solicitors refused to mediate.   Should i state this in my witness statement too to show the judge that I have been reasonable and they haven't? Many thanks   Louise
    • Right that's exactly why so many drivers got caught, it had been that way for many years then suddenly changes with no warning
    • The hearing is 25th June, I have downloaded items to different organisations previously but they do it a simple way and I just cross out private things with a felt tip and sent to an email address.  I have looked at the instructions for CAG it seems extremely complicated especially this about having to use a system MSPAINT.EXE that removes your personal information. I am hoping one of my Grandchildren understands things to give me help, I have shown one of my daughters she said she does not understand the instructions. I have a PC and I mainly use a lap top, as previously advised I only understand the straightforward things, sending an email and using my scanner to send a document that I save in a file or send it to an email. I will try and find someone to help me, thanks for your help you have given me so far appreciate it

    • 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.

I took out a loan with Citi in 2007 and made regular payments until 2010 when I had a change in finances and could no longer afford the repayments

- looking back this was stupid I know but I now have to face up to it.

 

Heard nothing until Dec 2011 when I had the usual threats from Robinson Way and

more recently a call from 'their agent' suggesting a settlement figure at which my file will be satisfied.

 

After checking my CRA I see that Citi marked my file as settled in 2009

possibly when the company transferred to Moneyway?

 

Cabot have added a default in 2010 despite having no communication with me.

 

Today, out of curiosity I rang Moneyway to see if they still own the debt or Robbers are collecting on their behalf

- only to be told 'we have no interest in that balance and it has been passed to Cabot'.

 

I have already had a result with PPI on this due to being self employed at the time

but I'm reluctant to fork out to organisations that prey on people's misfortunes or for something that is possibly unenforceable.

 

Any advice please?

 

Should I CCA Cabot or Robbers or both?

Out of the blue came my first letter from Cabot -

 

"Thank you for your recent request for information..

... We do not have this information but have requested it from the OC. "

 

I have never asked these people for this - my request was to RW and they returned my po!

That's because Cabot own the debt, they have

it seems a very large portfolio of old ''associates and

Citi accounts.

It wont be an associates card, as Citi rebranded in very early 2000s.

 

It is usual for an assignee to re-register any defaults ,its actually written in ICO guidance.

 

It looks as though the account has indeed been assigned to Cabot, and that it is likely paperwork will be available

since lenders did improve on their storage and management of data post 2007.

 

It should not be stated that Cabot dont take cases to Court, because we know that they DO.

Out of curiosity, what is the outstanding amount they say is owed ?

 

What you need to be getting is a statement that shows payments made, and what has been added.

suddenly after several months I have received CCA with a very poor copy of a signed agreement

- a slightly different version to the one I have

 

in that they have dated 23/04/08 rather than 23/04/07

stating "date of signature being date of the agreement"

 

I now have 14 days in which to respond or they will escalate the account within their collections procedure.

I have an original credit agreement with the correct dates on.

 

The copy they have suddenly sent through together with a complete list of transactions

 

is signed by the Citi representative but the date of the signature is 08 instead of 07 (2007)

 

- I may have signed 2 copies on application but it's strange they produce one that is different to my copy.

 

I have since had the usual follow phone call from them

 

and to be honest I'm just thinking about coming to an agreement

 

but I really begrudge paying the full amount for something they probably paid £100 for.

What would SAR show?

The discount was from robbers way and was for full and final.

 

original loan with Citi

which then transferred to moneyway (secure trust bank) in 2009.

 

in june 2011 talon tried to get their claws in on behalf of moneyway and then

 

in October Robbers way tried

- when I asked for CCA they passed back to their client cabot.

 

It seems cabot applied a default on my cra August 2010.

 

I have not had NOA from cabot and have now requested this.

 

It seems like cabot bought the a/c but then 'subbed' it out for collection firstly to talon

and the robbers way - why would they do this?

I'm confused!

 

I received a letter in March with a signed copy of an original credit agreement although the authorising signature from Citi clearly states 2008 - it was 2007 - is this then valid?

 

In April a letter saying Cabot have not been able to provide the relevant information within the timescale and so the a/c remains on hold.

 

more recently a letter to say they have recently bought the a/c and unless I agree to make a suitable repayment plan it will move to the next stage of the collection process.

 

it seems the discount offered was probably f & f. any thoughts please?

The ''agreement'' is not compliant if the date is wrong.

Does this show on your credit reference files.

Yes it does show on my credit file with the correct date.

 

It shows as being a 0 balance with Citi in 2009 when the provider changed to moneyway from there it vanished off the radar until

 

cabot appeared

- it then shows a default date which I don't agree with.

 

Although the copy of the signed credit agreement they have sent has my signature and the correct date

 

where the Citi representative has signed they have written the wrong date by 1 year.
