    • forewarned is forearmed as they say? if i dont have the facts straight off wouldnt it just start a timewasting excercise of letter tennis?  
    • My ex blamed me for her not paying her bills she says I controlled her money. So I have been told I need to pay them as it was my fault. She has not paid the bills where she lives now which was my house. I'm not allowed contact with her and again she is blaming me. As in this type of case it is victim led so no matter what stupid thing she says she is believed. It is for me to prove otherwise.
    • No SAR yet but they have confirmed via email that they have everything and will supply it by this month end.    When you say the FOS considered it a personal loan due to personal guarantee who is the FOS? Financial Ombudsman?  But then that doesn’t make sense as they haven’t been involved yet.    Santander in their final response to my original complaint did not agree to it. They turned my complaint down and specified that the selling dealership had agreed to treat it as personal for settlement purposes.    I guess they could not agree to it as then they would be guilty of miss selling but they gave me what I wanted by saying I would not get treated as a business customer in regards to finance charges.    Awful bank to deal with. Will never touch them again. 
    • Background I am in dispute with Clerical Medical over, amongst other things, statements that I haven't received. They didn't resolve my complaint in time so invited me to complain to the FOS, which I did The FOS investigator in his findings has written that  Clerical Medical have mow provided all missing statements apart from two. One of these is for the policy year 2021 - 2022, which they say is unavailable due to a system migration. I have twice asked the FOS investigator for a copy of his screen shot to try and resolve this discrepancy but they have ignored me so today I submitted a subject access request. I said I was primarily interested in the screen shot but I also asked for everything they held against the complaint reference number. The response I got from firstly the Data Protection Operations Senior Coordinator, then secondly the investigator was that  The investigator expanded on this and said I'll wait the 40 days and see what they come back with then make a decision on next steps at that point, but I want to make sure I've got my facts in the right order before I start arguing with them. They seem to be saying that my SAR doesn't cover the screen shot because it isn't personal data but I disagree. I have a reference number that identifies my complaint and therefore indirectly identifies me. I think that means everything that is held against that reference number, including the screen shot, is my personal data and is in scope of my SAR (subject to exemptions). Who is right?

    • 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.

Getting really hacked off with this now. I asked Barclaysharks for copies of all letters, and in particular letters from/to Belmont Thornton about the ppi claim. They said I would have them within ten days. A month later I receive a parcel from them " thank you for requesting copies if your statements" they've already sent statements!!!!

 

How is it possible for an organisation such as Barclays to so utterly incompetent?

 

They also said I would receive a response to my penalty charges claim "within a week" two weeks ago!!!

 

Looks like small claims is in the cards clearly trying to be reasonable with these clowns gets you nowhere grrrr

All of the above have been copied in on every single email I have sent for months along with a few others. But they still make mistakes/are incompetent. One even put in writing "to be honest I haven't got a clue"!!!!!

 

Ps the David walker one doesn't work anymore

Letter from sharklays today :

 

Thank you for contacting us about the charges on your account. I am sorry you feel the charges incurred are unfair.

 

In have looked into your complaint carefully and have ton inform you that any charges incurred were made correctly and in accordance with our terms and conditions that customers agree to when they take out one of our credit cards. On that basis I must inform you that I cannot uphold your complaint.

 

We are satisfied that our charges of £12 are in line with out actual and estimated costs which are incurred and comply with relevant legislation and guidance.

 

Yada yada

 

She can't have looked at the account that. Carefully because the majority of the charges were £24, not £12!

Had a copy of the letters finally. However, they have not included a copy of the original default notice. Amin correct on thinking, seeing as I never received one to begin with, and a copy doesn't appear to exist now, I can challenge the default on my file which has been taken over by lowells? Would it be Barclays or Lowell or both I go for?

Hi Hacked Off,

 

As Default Notices are not routinely kept as hard copies a note is made on the debtors file stating that a DN was sent on a specific date, and that is all they would have to state if challenged, ''the record shows a DN was sent on xx xx xxxx''.

 

You would challenge the original creditor if anyone.

A set aside is for court judgements, not defaults.

Barclays, but as said all the need to state that a DN

was issued.

I wouldn't think so no. What does the DN say?

 

Failure to rectify this by dd/mm/yyyy will result in us informing credit ref agencies yadda yadda yadda?

It doesn't give a specific date just " you must make the minimum payment by the date shown in your monthly statement" by this point I wasn't receiving monthly statements. This is also the first I've seen of this dn as it went to the wrong address.

Then the DN is faulty and not worth the paper it's written on.

 

You would need to take it up with the CRA and advise them that you believe the default date is incorrect, they will then get onto lowlifes on your behalf and ask them.
