    • The Notice to Hirer does not comply with the protection of Freedoms Act 2012 Schedule  4 . This is before I ask if Europarks have sent you a copy of the PCN they sent to Arval along with a copy of the hire agreement et. if they haven't done that either you are totally in the clear and have nothing to worry about and nothing to pay. The PCN they have sent you is supposed to be paid by you according to the Act within 21 days. The chucklebuts have stated 28 days which is the time that motorists have to pay. Such a basic and simple thing . The Act came out in 2012 and still they cannot get it right which is very good news for you. Sadly there is no point in telling them- they won't accept it because they lose their chance to make any money out of you. they are hoping that by writing to you demanding money plus sending in their  unregulated debt collectors and sixth rate solicitors that you might be so frightened as to pay them money so that you can sleep at night. Don't be surprised if some of their letters are done in coloured crayons-that's the sort of  level of people you will be dealing with. Makes great bedding for the rabbits though. Euro tend not to be that litigious but while you can safely ignore the debt collectors just keep an eye out for a possible Letter of Claim. They are pretty rare but musn't be ignored. Let us know so that you can send a suitably snotty letter to them showing that you are not afraid of them and are happy to go to Court as you like winning.  
    • They did reply to my defence stating it would fail and enclosed copies of NOA, DN Term letter and account statements. All copies of T&C's that could be reconstructions and the IP address on there resolves to the town where MBNA offices are, not my location

    • My defence was standard no paperwork:   1.The Defendant contends that the particulars of claim are generic in nature. The Defendant accordingly sets out its case below and relies on CPR r 16.5 (3) in relation to any particular allegation to which a specific response has not been made. 2. Paragraph 1 is noted. The Defendant has had a contractual relationship with MBNA Limited in the past. The Defendant does not recognise the reference number provided by the claimant within its particulars and has sought verification from the claimant who is yet to comply with requests for further information. 3. Paragraph 2 is denied. The Defendant maintains that a default notice was never received. The Claimant is put to strict proof to that a default notice was issued by MBNA Limited and received by the Defendant. 4. Paragraph 3 is denied. The Defendant is unaware of any legal assignment or Notice of Assignment allegedly served from either the Claimant or MBNA Limited. 5. On the 02/01/2023 the Defendant requested information pertaining to this claim by way of a CCA 1974 Section 78 request. The claimant is yet to respond to this request. On the 19/05/2023 a CPR 31.14 request was sent to Kearns who is yet to respond. To date, 02/06/2023, no documentation has been received. The claimant remains in default of my section 78 request. 6. It is therefore denied with regards to the Defendant owing any monies to the Claimant, the Claimant has failed to provide any evidence of proof of assignment being sent/ agreement/ balance/ breach or termination requested by CPR 31.14, therefore the Claimant is put to strict proof to: (a) show how the Defendant entered into an agreement; and (b) show and evidence the nature of breach and service of a default notice pursuant to Section 87(1) CCA1974 (c) show how the claimant has reached the amount claimed for; and (d) show how the Claimant has the legal right, either under statute or equity to issue a claim; 7. As per Civil Procedure Rule 16.5(4), it is expected that the Claimant prove the allegation that the money is owed. 8. On the alternative, as the Claimant is an assignee of a debt, it is denied that the Claimant has the right to lay a claim due to contraventions of Section 136 of the Law of Property Act and Section 82A of the consumer credit Act 1974. 9. By reasons of the facts and matters set out above, it is denied that the Claimant is entitled to the relief claimed or any relief.
    • Monika the first four pages of the Private parking section have at least 12 of our members who have also been caught out on this scam site. That's around one quarter of all our current complaints. Usually we might expect two current complaints for the same park within 4 pages.  So you are in good company and have done well in appealing to McDonalds in an effort to resolve the matter without having  paid such a bunch of rogues. Most people blindly pay up. Met . Starbucks and McDonalds  are well aware of the situation and seem unwilling to make it easier for motorists to avoid getting caught. For instance, instead of photographing you, if they were honest and wanted you  to continue using their services again, they would have said "Excuse me but if you are going to go to Mc donalds from here, it will cost you £100." But no they kett quiet and are now pursuing you for probably a lot more than £100 now. They also know thst  they cannot charge anything over the amount stated on the car park signs. Their claims for £160 or £170 are unlawful yet so many pay that to avoid going to Court. When the truth is that Met are unlikely to take them to Court since they know they will lose. The PCNs are issued on airport land which is covered by Byelaws so only the driver can be pursued, not the keeper. But they keep writing to you as they do not know who was driving unless you gave it away when you appealed. Even if they know you were driving they should still lose in Court for several reasons. The reason we ask you to fill out our questionnaire is to help you if MET do decide to take you to Court in the end. Each member who visited the park may well have different experiences while there which can help when filling out a Witness statement [we will help you with that if it comes to it.] if you have thrown away the original PCN  and other paperwork you obviously haven't got a jerbil or a guinea pig as their paper makes great litter boxes for them.🙂 You can send an SAR to them to get all the information Met have on you to date. Though if you have been to several sites already, you may have done that by now. In the meantime, you will be being bombarded by illiterate debt collectors and sixth rate solicitors all threatening you with ever increasing amounts as well as being hung drawn and quartered. Their letters can all be safely ignored. On the odd chance that you may get a Letter of Claim from them just come back to us and we will get you to send a snotty letter back to them so that they know you are not happy, don't care a fig for their threats and will see them off in Court if they finally have the guts to carry on. If you do have the original PCN could you please post it up, carefully removing your name. address and car registration number but including dates and times. If not just click on the SAR to take you to the form to send to Met.

    • 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 all,

 

Well I've got my self into the same mess as so many others here. I have 4 payday loans and I just cannot afford to pay them back in one go so need to set up payment plans.

 

They are.

 

Quick Quid = £700. paid £175 twice (interest) to roll over. £875.00 to repay in full.

 

Payday uk = £350. paid £87.50 once (interest)to roll over £437.50 to repay in full.

 

Payday express = £400 have not made a payment yet but interest would be £118.00

 

Wonga = £550.00, but breakdown on their webiste is weird. - says capital repayment £550, interest repayment £250.02, transmission fee £11.00, other charges £20 ( i think this was the deferral fee) and - (minus) repayments made is £353.21 but then they say the total to repay is £477.81? seems like I've pad a lot but still a lot to pay??

 

I have cancelled my debit card, and I want to write to each of these to explain that I cannot pay them in full but want to set up re-payment, I am worried because quick quid has my work phone number and I have read around that they will call work numbers, that would be awfull for me and could get me into a lot of trouble - can I stop them?

 

Can anyone help me here with a template to send please?

 

Thanks

 

Myfamily

You need a full breakdown of all the debts before you negotiate repayments. ALso, before you do that, you need to secure your bank account. If you dont, and they get a hint that you wont repay them on time, they are known for dipping into your bank account and taking what they want anyway.

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..

OK. Just start by writing to each lender - before you miss payment offering x amount per month for x months. Maybe something as follows:

 

Amounts are for example purposes only.

 

I am writing to inform you that I am seeking advice and assistance regarding my current financial difficulties. I am in the process of going to a debt management plan however, I wondered if you would be so kind to accept a repayment offer with myself. I believe the repayment from a debt management would offer you 10 pound per month and I am wondering if you will accept 50 pound per month on the loan.

 

To this end, I would appreciate if you could allow me to offer to you the monthly payment plan. I am contacting all my creditors today and have advised my bank also. Please email me back rather than phone as I need to ensure everything is confirmed in writing.

 

Also, during this period, could you please confirm interest and/or any other charges do not accrue on my account.

 

Please also confirm your bank details so I can begin payments. I would be happy to make my first payment to you when I get paid in 2 days time.

 

I look forward to hearing from you as soon as possible.

Well, I've defaulted with quick quid - althogh I tried to contact them to set up a repayment plane befroe the payment due date but got no reply, I have offered them £50 per month, but they are refusing to give me their bank details so I can make payment - they insist that I can only pay by direct debit, debit card, or cheque. I have told them that this is not acceptable but I would see what I could do (so I thought I would get a pre paid card instead and not tell them t was pre-paid!!).

 

But I got and e-mail today saying that they will not set up the plan without my new card or bank details and in order to check the details there noeeds to be £1.00 in the account, the address needs to be the same as mine which it would anyway but am wondering if they are trying to check if it's a proper accout that way?

I gave them the card details of any 02 pre-paid card and they set up an arrangement no problem at all.

 

Still, they're the only payday loan company i have left to pay off and i've paid little to date since i defaulted in November 2011.

 

Don't worry about them lot too much and use their resolution service if needs be.

 

That's what worked for me.

Prepaid cards work well. You just need to make sure that you never tell them that it is a prepaid card, and pay it over their website. If you tell them its prepaid, they will decline it straight away as they know they cant pass on the details, or more-so start debiting it whenever they like.

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!

 

The 02 prepaid card shows when QQ have made numerous attempts to debit the card for money.

Hi Jbscot

 

CPA = Continuous Payment Authority.

 

I called the bank and cancelled my debit card but some of these loan companise can use the bank details that you give them for money to be paid in and take money out of your account so you have to cancel the CPA on your account from any of these companies.

 

Apparently some banks are better than others at doing this, I called mine and they were quite good, 2 of these companies tried at the end of last month to take their money and it was refused.

 

Still having problems with quick quid though, they refuse to give me their account details, so I'm going to reduce my offer to them now and tell them that I'm going to send them a postal order each month, (the reduction in their offer is to take into account the increased cost to me to pay them this way - petrol, cost of the postal order, postage and time going to the post office) :-)

I agree with Jamie. Never pay a PDL by Direct Debit. They can alter the date and amount they debit as and when they choose to do so.

this CPA or recurring payment is scary. The FSA have told the banks that if someone requests to cancel a transaction at the bank then this MUST be completed and therefore if any further transactions are taken from the account then this would be an unauthorised transaction. The banks are frequently telling the customers to contact the retailer or payday loan company to cancel this CPA or recurring payment. The direct debot scheme offers more protection than the Continuous Payment authority. This is why even when we cancel our debot card and have no direct debot set up they can just take as much as they want whenever they want. I am going to call the bank of scotland today to cancel these CPA's and to test their knowledge on this and then I will cancel my debit card. I will then contact Wonga and QQ to request that any recurring payment/continous payment authority is cancelled immediately.

Hi Everyone,

 

Can anyone help?

 

I sent e-mails to all the Payday loan companies above and told them I have had a change and cannot afford to paybakc in one lumps sum and asked for an arrangement.

 

Payday express were due today and have so far called me 12 times!! They have sent an e-mail which reads

 

"Thank you for your recent contact and your request for a repayment plan.

 

Our accepted criteria for a repayment plan are as follows:

 

 

· Significant Loss of income

 

· Unexpected change in personal circumstance, e.g. Long term sickness

 

· Severe Disability or illness (including close family members)

 

· Terminal illness or Mental illness (including close family members)

 

· Deceased (including close family members)

 

· Redundancy or Reduced hours (contractual hours reduced by company)

 

 

All or any of the above may require documented evidence, i.e.

 

· If you are now unemployed or in receipt of financial support, please provide proof of unemployment or redundancy. If your contractual hours have been reduced by your employer, please provide a letter from your employer on company headed paper to confirm this.

 

· If your circumstances have changed due to personal illness, please provide a copy of a doctor’s note or hospital letter.

 

 

If your financial circumstances have changed we may be prepared to consider a reasonable and affordable repayment plan.

 

A repayment plan does not vary or release you from the terms and conditions of the signed loan agreement, so if you fail to comply with the terms of repayment plan we have the right to obtain payment of the full amount outstanding together with accrued interest and charges from any of the debit cards that you have supplied to us.

 

At 120 days past the original due date whether an agreed repayment plan is in existence or not we may register a default on your records with credit reference agencies.

 

 

Should you wish to discuss these options or your account please call our office on 0115 908 1163* and one of our Financial Difficulties advisers will be able to assist you. You can also contact us via email at [email protected], there may be up to a 3 working days delay in responding due to the number of emails we receive.

 

 

Our opening times are: Monday to Friday: 9am – 5.30pm

 

Best regards

 

Express, Collections Support "

 

 

I am currently going through hell with a repossession case with Barclays First Plus and my wages have not changed but sue to court case, I have various other expenses and I just cannot afford this, I am not prepared to give them proof of anything!! I don't think they are entitled to it - are they?

 

Can anyone help me with a reply to this e-mail, I have made my offer and that's it, I am not sending any documents to them.

 

Please help.

Stick to your guns. They have no right to see any of that info. If they refuse to give you bank details, send in postal orders and tell them that you are deducting the cost of the po and stationary used, from the amount you owe. They cannot refuse this payment.

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..

Ok. Heres what you do. Write down the date and time of each call. Send the company the telephone harassment letter. Give them 2 days to receive it and action it. Keep those calls logged. If they still harass you, inform the OFT, giving the details of every call, and also OFCOM.

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..
