    • Hello, Following the submission of my defense, last night I received an email from DCBL indicating that the claimant intends to proceed with the claim (I've attached a screenshot of the email for reference) along with the N180 directions questionnaire. I'm unsure how they obtained my email, but I suspect it was through the courts' form when I completed the Acknowledgment of Service. This email almost slipped my attention. I have also today received a letter from court to state they have received my defense.  It appears they are requesting an online telephone hearing with the court. Could you please advise me on the necessary steps I should take at this point? Thank you for your assistance. Letter-Email 25-04-24.pdf N180 - Directions questionnaire (Small Claims Track).pdf
    • Default Amount £9237.88, all this started in 2006 Admitted debt £9075.65 Weightmans added £1515.01 immediately they became involved, no explanation The Statement shows when Marlin bought debt in May 2011 £10439.25 Their statements, not received until the SAR, are based on this. Cabot deducted £1515.01on their statements in January 2019, again did not find this out until SAR. Weightmans added in  2007 after the CH1 etc was confirmed by the court £741.50, made up of Process server fees, Court Fee (they tried for bankruptcy), Solicitors fee and Land Registry fee. Unspecfied Legal costs were added by Marlin in March 2015, again I did not know this until statements received with SAR I had been paying monthly, without exception until December 2018. I am minded to take the property charge, CH1 amount ,deduct all my payments and the subsequent fees, and request/demand a refund on the final payment made? I consistently disputed Weightmans balances, but they never responded. I also told Mortimer Clarke/Cabot that I disputed their amounts.

    • 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.

Update on my claims

 

After fending off the standard letters from Natwest with your last advice I have recently been sent specific reference numbers which are now logged in their system.

 

Also I have just received statements from Barclaycard following SAR and as expected they only date back to November 2006. The visa card was obtained in April 1995 and PPI cancelled January 2010 which makes a total of 177 months paying varying amounts of PPI. From the statements I can see that from November 2006 to January 2010 (38 months) I paid over £1200 in PPI. Any advice on my next move?

 

Thank you

Wow. There are some EXTREMELY helpful and clever folks on here. I hope Paraman has success in his claim and have a feeling that the maths provided by ims21 will come in very handy for my claim (3 loans which were refinanced with PPI on top of PPI on top of PPI, etc.)

 

All the best.

SUCCESS

Just received a letter from RBS who have made offers on each of the payment protection policies I have had since 1998. I should say they are a gesture of goodwill without any admission of liability. The total sum is £13,972 which is just £75 short of the spreadsheet calculations.

 

I must say a big thank you to members of this forum and particularly ims21 for so much help. It goes without saying that a donation will be made once I have sent off the acceptance forms and received the settlement.

 

I must also say that I think it helped that I had most of the information for the accounts to hand (it pays to be a hoarder) and was able to quote account numbers and dates accurately.

 

Thank you all and next stop Barclays.

Congratulations Paraman - great news! Would you mind sharing your covering letter (which I presume included your justification) and the section from the questionnaires that is titled "please indicate why you now consider the PPI to have been misssold"? It would be extremely useful to see examples of successful justifications - sometimes it's not obvious that PPI was actually missold so your experience may well help others with their claims.

Hi mad_dr

 

In my case the PPI involved 3 consecutive bank loans (with PPI) and a fourth without PPI, dating back to 1998.

I believe I was successful for the following reasons

1 -The incredible help from this forum

2 -I was able to lay my hands on the required documents and dates (without SAR)

3 -I have been self employed for 30 years, therefore PPI was worthless .

 

This is my covering letter (names removed) Hope this helps

Your Address

 

Address of Bank

 

Dear Sir/Madam,

 

Re: Personal loan protector policies - (policy Numbers here)

I was sold the above consecutive policies from (date) to (date in connection with personal loans from your bank

I believe that I was mis-sold these policies for the reasons given below, and wish you to investigate my complaints according to your normal complaint procedures.

I was led to believe that my application would be rejected if I did not take out the insurance.

 

The policy exclusions were not explained to me either before or at the time I took out the insurance. I was therefore unable to make an informed decision as to whether this insurance was appropriate for me.

 

I now believe the insurance was unsuitable for me as I was self employed at the time I took out the policy and was not made aware of the specific exclusions relating to unemployment cover.

 

It was not explained to me that the policy premium would be paid upfront as a single premium and would be added to my debt and attract interest.

If my complaint is upheld I require a refund of all premiums paid to the policy, plus any additional interest charged to me because of the PLP. I would also like to claim statutory compensation in view of the fact that I have been deprived of the use of this money.

Please now investigate my complaint within the eight weeks allowed to you and find attached the following documents

Copies of Loan agreements

Financial Ombudsman Service consumer questionnaires for each policy

Loan analysis spreadsheets for each loan

PPI redress calculations under FOS rules for single premium policies

 

Yours faithfully

(your name)
