    • 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 am new to this site and have just come across a few threads mentioning Toothfairy/Marshall Hoarers Bailiffs. I received this email 2 days ago and have no way of contacting them especially by phone on a charging number. They have no email to contact them on. I did set up a £50 repayment plan from 31.12.12 but was unable to pay due to work problems.

I am in contact with Citizens Advice but don't have an appointment until Wednesday 9th Jan 2013 to get any payday loans settled.

 

Is this email legit and will they turn up at my house this week?

They are a difficult bunch to deal with to say the least, they wont accept your payment plan, "pay it all in one go" is all they will accept.

 

Personally id ignore them :), but im not sure what youd do :)

 

We could do with some help from you.

Hi

Please do not ignore this email, you must email them back setting up an affordable repayment plan, even if you can only afford £5.00 a month then state this. Also send them a financial statement (list your income and all outgoings) this will show your disposable income (what you are left with once all outgoings have been paid). Send this by email and set it so you are sent a read receipt, this acknowledges they have read your eamil. Also send the same letter and financial statement by recorded delivery and check it has arrived, this can be done online.

Also state in your letter you will not be discussing any payment proposals with any agents attending your premises all contact must be made via post.

 

If agents arrive at your house try not to answer door but if you do just inform them you have sent correspondence regarding this issue and you are waiting for a reply. The threat of court action is merely standard procedure but they will take this route if you do not offer payment and adhere to that payment.

KAz is right, dont ignore them. I do for a good reason but everything else ive dealt with from other companies has been sorted.

Sending an Income + Expenditure List wont help. They dont have a valid email address and its all done via an online form which is very primitive.

 

No matter if you pay £25, they have a policy NOT to stop interest. So any payment would be negated by interest.

If someone does turn up tell them to shoooo off, they are normally trespassing.

 

Debt collectors have no right to anything you do until they receive a Warrant of execution which will be issued by a court and executed by a legal bailiff which these people do no have.

 

Now to the joking part - "All Visits May Be Chargeable" oh dear - Seems they have shot themselves in the foot. DCAs have a way of sending letters saying May, Might.... And never will ^__^

 

Please be strong :)

Marshal Hoares would be acting in the capacity of Debt Collection Agent.. and NOT as Bailiff in this respect.

 

I am a little concerned that TF have elected to use such a company who might possibly confuse consumers.

 

If they do turn up - then you can ask them to leave - they have no power of entry.

It is extremely worrying if they are claiming to be acting in their capacity of Bailffs when they are only collecting as Debt Collection Agent. You should actually make a complaint to the OFT about this.

They will not show up at your door, don't worry about that.

Even if they did, unless they show you evidence that they have been sent by the Court even a foot in the door is a crime.

 

With other pdls I'd advice to negotiate a suitable repayment plan, with this particular one though, just pay what you can when you can and only the amount actually owed (original loan + 1 month interest + initial default fee minus any payment already made), then simply tell them to stick it where the sun doesn't shine if they demand more (which they will beyond any doubt).

 

If you did pdls the honour of considering them bottom of the barrel lenders toothfairy wouldn't even be stuck to the underside of the barrel, much less inside of it and there is zero evidence of them ever doing more than send threatening communication.

 

Just pay it back when you can so you can later pat yourself on the back, feel good and say you've done the right thing.

Hi, I'm new to this site. If anyone is having problems with MARSHALL HOARES BAILIFFS here is there landline number 01224931013, yet occasionally they will say they are NORTHERN DEBT RECOVERY.

 

Back in October 2012 I applied for a £200 loan with SPEED CREDIT, signed the agreement for £200 loan yet was processed for a £400 loan, I received the agreement for a £400 loan too!!

 

Strange that as I know I didn't sign for that amount as it stated 200 on the one I signed, I contacted them straight away and could not get through so I contacted fos (financial ombudsmen service) to report it, they got in touch with them and gave them 8 weeks to resolve my problem, I had 350 left of the 400, I offers it them all back and wait 2wks for the other 50 pound which they refused to take, they gave me a week to pay it back without interest, I couldn't get the other 50 so was stuffed!!

 

 

I offers them 200 back that way they could reduce my loan to the original amount of £200 but oh no they refused, to cut a long story short, I now owe £1150 I was on a payment plan but I couldn't afford so they cancelled it ad they wouldn't accept my offer, its been in dispute since day 1, I've passed it over to fos to take on and deal with, I have kept every email, text and recorded all calls, they are all mouth no trousers and they will not take you court as the longer they keep the harrasing calls going the more money they make off you by the interest.....everytime they ring I say " HAVE YOU GOT A COURT DATE YET?" they say court date for wat... I reply " TO TAKE ME TO COURT FOR THE OUTSTANDING BALANCE, PLEASE ONLY CONTACT ME WHEN IT'S TO INFORM ME OF THE COURT DATE" HANGUP!!

 

I always say that now n if they get into an argument or hissey fit tell em " you won't accept my offer so the only way this will be resolved is via court so I suggest you take it to court and I will have my say in court with all the harassing evidence I have...hang up.

 

They won't take you court and northern debt recovery, Marshall hoarse bailiffs, is under Gary chapple and oliver larholt director names to whom I have both of there numbers direct, but waste of space, well I've had enough and I am taking legal action against them for harrasment and the obvious fraud they committed by sending me a different loan and agreement.

 

 

If anyone is in the same position I would go see the cab cause they can help to get this sorted and help :)

I'm guessing you had an email from NDR today saying you needed the full amount available in your account from midnight tonight?

 

I just had that one and hit reply twice with the same response. I said as was my legal rig I withdrew any right for them to take money from my account, that if they did I would report them as it would be illegal. I also then went on to say that I was reporting them to the relevant authorities as I had sought independent legal advice and they had no leg to stand on other than to ask for their original loan plus one month interest which is all I will repay. I then mentioned how bad they looked pursuing the debt through more than one company and that the FOS would love all the correspondence i had from them. I gave them until 5pm to acknowledge receipt of my email and said if I didn't have it by then I would assume they were willingly breaking the law and would be straight on to all authorities interested and ensuring that I did everything in my power to make sure they lost their licence.

 

Haven't heard anything yet. Next step is a recorded phone call, which I am going to make on loudspeaker and record. I've also rang my bank cancelling CPA and would suggest you did the same. I think they are running scared as they know they are under serious investigation!

If you want to cancel any payments through your bank, you must get it done in writing and get written confirmation of the acceptance of your instruction. If you call them, the call's never seem to be found or recorded if they let the payments through.

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..

Yep, best to do it in branch and get a piece of paper signed by the branch manager confirming that they've done it, can be a pain to get it, but short of changing to a different bank its the only 100% safe way.

The following article will be in the CAG newsletter which is being sent to all members at this moment.

 

OFT issues rules for continuous payment authorities

The OFT has issued a set of principles for businesses using continuous payment authorities (CPAs) amid concerns that customers are not always being made aware of what they are signing up to and may be misled about their rights to cancel.

They have clarified that customers can cancel a CPA with either the company taking the payment, or with the bank or card provider.

Once a customer has told the bank or card issuer that they have stopped permission for the payments, the bank or card provider must halt payments and has no right to insist that you agree this first with the company taking the payments.

hi. I took out a 100 pound loan with community payday fell behind with payment after been poorly. had other financial problems too. received only 1 email after mg debt had been passed on to mh bailiffs. this was 18 months. had voicemails and texts saying I will be getting a bailiffs to my door within 7 days. never had one. got paid on a Friday checked ny balance on the Saturday. they had gone and taken 156 pounds from my bank without me knowing about it. phoned them spoke to a woman only for her to tell nr how it's all my fault. she kept talking over Me so I demanded to speak to someone higher up. a Man called back ten minutes later saying it's all my fault and there is nothing he was willing to do . to say he shouted at me was an under statement . I'm hoping citizens advice will be able time help as the bank said they can't retrieve my money as it has already left my account . this wasn't a direct debit either. has anyone else experienced the same ancient does anyone know if this is legal????????????

Go to your bank, demand a chargeback as it was an unauthorised transaction. File a full complaint with the idiots at MHB ( they are NOT bailiffs. they are a DCA) and send a letter to the OFT.

 

Also, STAY OFF THE PHONE. Only deal with financial matters in writing. They will say and do ANYTHING over the phone.

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..

Do you think people should be complaining about the banks who keeping giving their customers false information too?

 

"We can't stop a continuous payment"

"We can't issue a chargeback"

 

Consumers need to be protected from these fiends by their banks and this just isn't happening. It's a disgrace.

Have you gone to both the FOS and OFT, they are actively taking complaints against PDL companies at the moment, I've had a partial result with my complaint against another PDL and am pushing for financial compensation.

 

All complaints are counting at the moment so yours could be the one which makes the OFT decide that they will not be renewing any of their licences.

 

I still maintain it should be 'one licence per trading name' to stop widespread abuse and mis-representation (and false information gathering).

Do you think people should be complaining about the banks who keeping giving their customers false information too?

 

"We can't stop a continuous payment"

"We can't issue a chargeback"

 

Consumers need to be protected from these fiends by their banks and this just isn't happening. It's a disgrace.

 

Yes, to both the OFT and the Financial Ombudsman :)

Well after chasing Banks etc and regulators/MPs etc in the past few years, Letter from HSBC change to our Terms & Conditions:- D.D/S.Os etc pay out on a certain day if no funds to pay then they will do a further check in the afternoon to see if sufficient (cleared) funds are available at that stage of the day i.e. by 3.30 p.m.

 

Anybody followed me on this subject the last few years would know I was trying to get Banks to stop debit at 00.01A.M. on a day to pay Direct debits before credits to accounts etc and ignoring credits to account on that day even at the openig time of the Bank, all the reply received eventually was tell the counter assistant that deposits were for that days transactions (Debits) no firm answer. (Told not a guarantee).

 

so a step in the right direction here.

 

Also where Debit Card recurring payment being changed so that you can cancel these with Bank OR retailer.

You're already allowed by law to cancel recurring payments with the bank, they just have to wake up and realise it!
