    • Where a person who owns or partially owns a property enters into an IVA, it's usual practice that in the fifth year, the person has to attempt to remortgage the property to release equity. It's extremely rare that a homeowner will be successful in remortgaging due to having a poor credit rating. Where the owner is unable to remortgage, the IVA is extended for a further year. This is absolutely normal practice in an IVA, and if your sister cancels payments to the IVA, the IVA is at risk of failing and she could be made bankrupt, therefore losing any equity she has in the property. 
    • Right. So I think it would be  good idea to give a brief description of the property, for example detached house, or flat or terraced. And some sort of identifier so we can distinguish from other properties you handle. An incomplete street address eg "No.14" would do so while preserving your privacy. Is the freehold title discrete for the property, or does it cover other leasehold properties? And a bit about your history, how current ownership came about. At one stage you said it used to be your family home, elsewhere you wrote that you'd bought the leasehold. Did those comments refer to this property? Did you acquire it on the open market, or from your family? Is this the house with the garages, where you own the freehold? Trying to understand whether there are underlying reasons that might account for problems with valuation, eligibility for finance, and the fact that neither you nor Lender found it possible to sell. Finally (for the moment) you refer to existing litigation. Does that relate to this property? If so it would be good to give a brief overview. Civil or criminal? What role do play .. claimant, defendant, appellant, respondent?  Charge, or cause of action. You don't want to go off on separate path that would better joined to the current proceedings.

    • 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 everyone,

 

I am aware there are others threads and there are a wealth of information contained in them, having just read through, but I am after a bit more help if possible and what steps to take next.

 

I too have made the mistake of using mincredit and defaulting - here is a summery of my original loan, date applied and when it was owed and how much I currently owe today (less than 2 months after defaulting)

 

 

Order date Amount applied Current balance Due date balance Due date Status

2012-10-24 £100.00 £714.00 2012-11-19 debt collection

 

I have emailed them 3 times using the automated email link on their site and received no response, they have called several times and left voicemails.

 

How do I proceed from here? What would you suggest should I do first and then from then on?

 

This is causing me many a sleepless night, I am astounded that 100 (of which I only got 80!) has turned into 714 in 6/7 weeks!

 

Please help!

first of all dont panic they cant touch you with regards to sending bailiffs through your door, its a low priority personal debt and the courts will recognise this

 

i currently have the same problem but my debt stands at £1062 and 3 companies already have tryied to get this amount from me.

i kindly said to them on the telephone .. please provide me with a breakdown of the debt including charges that have been applied until i have this information no arrangements will be made.

 

thats why they keep changing debt recovery companies because they cant justify the charges. just relax and repeat the same message to all the companies that are trying to "recover "the debt. each one will leave you alone in time,

 

in the mean time contact and file a complaint with the trading standards authorities and the finicial ombudsman

 

i have done both and ive recieved emails to say they are investigating minicredit and their "henchmen"

Actually its better if you form a full complaint to the OFT and let them know of everything that has happened, including all communication, and their refusal to respond, instead, they choose to push up the debt with unlawful charges and say you are ignoring them.

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 my advice helps you, click the star icon at the bottom of my post and feel free to say thanks

:D
