    • Is this sufficiant for a letter of claim  ? Letter Of Claim       Reference: Techzone Mobile Phones Samsung A71 Mobile Phone £140 Purchase date 29. 5. 24     I the claimant purchased a 2nd hand Samsung A71 mobile from Techzone Mobile Phone unit 10 of the indoor market at the Potteries shopping centre. Initially the phone worked well until I used the camera and found debris in the camera lens spoiling pictures making it not fit for purpose. I contacted the seller who offered a replacement which I initially accepted but later rejected and wanted a refund in full which the seller refused saying they Do Not give refund is unlawful and goes against the Consumer rights act 2015. Therefore I intend to issue proceedings against you in a county court without further notice unless you reimburse me the above amount in Full within 7 days from the date of this Letter     ------------------------------------------    I think its best if i hand him the letter as posting it might not get through so can claim expenses traveling up there ?   or would it be best to just post and get 'Signed for'  ?   Should i also put in the letter of claim interest added or leave that till the Particulars letter ?
    • Ok thanks, I really need help with my mental health over this I’ve called 111 Hi sorry just one more thing can they contact my workplace?
    • Sorry to shatter your leftie dreams 🤣😂🤣😂     Donald Trump gets a SIX-POINT bump in approval after being found guilty on 34 counts according to snap Daily Mail poll: 'I think it was a waste of taxpayer money' WWW.DAILYMAIL.CO.UK Teflon Don rides again, according to an exclusive poll for DailyMail.com which found that the guilty verdict in Manhattan... James Johnson, who conducted the poll, said Trump might be waking up as convicted felon but he was winning over the voters who matter.   Our snap poll of a representative sample of likely voters shows that for most Americans the trial has not changed their deep-set views of Trump,' he said.  'But amongst those who are open to changing their mind, people feel more positive by a margin of 6 points. That is outside of the margin of the error of the poll and we are saying that is significant. 'It extends to Independent voters too. Look at the explanations and it is clear why: people feel it was a politically motivated trial and view Trump as a "fighter" against what they see as injustice.

    • It’s all with current lenders and no missed payment to date. so with any reduced payment to them it’s likely to be going to debt collectors at some stage. we jointly own a property together me and my partner

    • 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.

Simply send them the letter from the library on this site telling them that they are not allowed to visit you in person at any time or at any place.

 

Also, write and tell them the amount that you can realistically afford taking into account other debts, rent etc and wont leave you with nothing. If they try and say no, that is their problem. If they tried to take you to court, theyd get much, MUCH less.

Any advice i give is my own and is based solely on personal experience. If in any doubt about a situation , please contact a certified legal representative or debt counsellor..

If you are unemployed the MOST you should pay towards this crazy figure is £1 a MONTH, do NOT offer one single penny more. A judge in a court of law may even suggest 50p and want a full breakdown of how QQ came to that figure.

 

How much did you orignally borrow?

Share on other sites

The you owe round about £800, and not the amount they are claiming.

 

I think the next thing is complain about both QQ and Mackenzie Hall to the OFT and Trading Standards, East Ayrshire Trading Standards to be specifric, the OFT and TS are doing an in depth investigation into the murky market that is PDLs.

 

Mucky Hall really have hit the bottom now picking up debt already dropped by Fredricksons due to the amount of complaints and queries....

Report them to East Ayrshire Trading Standards, they have already contacted you 'in writing' a text is THAT!

 

You need to speak to Sam Gardiner or Alan Stewart at East Ayrshire TS as they are aware of Mucky Hall and their miserable tactics.

 

They are having a laugh.

I do the same with another company who keep sending me letters to pay up. I can only afford one takeaway a month so most of the leaflets just sit in my kitchen next to the cookery books. I also make sure they are overstuffed....

 

QQ need to know they cannot override EU law and guidelines, they think they can because they are not based in the EU, which is their downfall as technically they cannot take you to court, they have to use a third party and have a very very good case. I have yet to see any Particulars of Claim from QQ.

I have recieved another email from them, stating i pay the amount in full.

On wednesday 2nd May 2012 i requested they provide me with proof of the debt they purchased from quick quid abd recieved no response yet they are still asking me to pay up.

 

It almost seems as if they do not read the emails that they recive and spend the whole day bullying people into paying up

That doesnt sound right. Hopefully someone else can help out here as i havent seen anyone needing to confirm it, especially as you sent the letter, enclosed the fee, they have your address on file, and can send it there.

Maybe they do just want to confirm data protection details? They have those details anyway, so maybe just confirm them? At least then you'll know if they have the original CCA

True. But why the DOB. Never really hear of that from a PDL. And its rare to have a creditor asking for confirmation.
