    • Yeah I figured, unlikely I'll need credit anyway mortgage all paid off etc so I'll take that on the chin and learn from the experience. Probably would've beaten that too had I remembered the protocol, first time ever going through the process though sob it wasn't familiar to me  Oh well  
    • This is my slightly amended WS taking on board your previous comments, any suggestions for amendments would be most appreciated.  Thank you for you time.   1.        I am the Defendant in this matter. 2.        The facts in this statement come from my personal knowledge. 3.        I became aware of original Judgement following a routine credit check on or around 14th September 2020. 4.        The alleged Letter of Claim dated 7 January 2020 was served to a previous address which I moved out of in 2018, no effort was made to ascertain my correct address. 5.        The Judgement debt was not familiar to me so I began investigations to ascertain what the debt related to and how such a figure had been equated in any event. 6.        I made immediate contact with the Court, the Claimant Solicitors and the Claimants thereafter, asking them to provide me with a copy of the original loan agreement but this was not provided to me.  7.        I sent a Data Subject access Request to Barclays but no agreement was provided – See appendix 1 which details the timeline of communication between myself and Barclaycard as well as copies of correspondence between us. 8.        I do not admit to entering an agreement with Barclaycard in 2000. 9.       The claimant has failed to comply with the additional directions ordered by District Judge Davis and therefore this claim should be automatically struck out.  10.    The claimants have failed to disclose a true executed copy of the original agreement they refer to within the particulars of this claim. They are not entitled to enforce the agreement pursuant to section 78.6 (a) of the Credit Consumer Act 1974 12.   The reconstituted standard Barclaycard agreement that the claimant has included in the court bundle does not satisfy any CCA request and so the claimant is and remains in default of my CCA request and therefore unable to enforce the alleged agreement. 13.  The claimants have failed to provide proof the assignment, such as a deed of assignment. 14.  The claimant has failed to provide a statement of account setting out how the alleged debt accrued under that agreement 15.   Despite numerous requests to the claimant, I have still not seen any evidence, such as an original agreement or deed of assignment, that substantiates the claimant’s assertion that I owe the debt to the claimant, nor evidence of how the debt was accrued. 16.   As per CPR 1.4(2)(a) the court encourages parties to cooperate with each other in the conduct of proceedings in order to try and save time and costs for the parties and to also save the time and resources of the court however, despite vast attempts at mediation the claimants have been most unreasonable and have remained unwilling to mediate. I believe that the facts stated in this Witness Statement are true.  I understand that proceedings for contempt of court may be brought against anyone who makes, or causes to be made, a false statement in a document verified by a statement of truth without an honest belief in its truth.
    • A set aside application costs £275 which is more than the judgement so not worth it. Not that they would grant a set aside anyway.  Set asides are granted, for example, to people who moved and didn't get the court papers, so have a genuine reason for not defending.  Forgetting doesn't count. Your only choices are to pay up within 30 days, or defy the court and not pay.  If the latter, we've never seen a PPC enforce judgement for a single ticket, ever, you would get away without paying - but you would have a CCJ and a knackered credit file for six years.

    • 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.

I've been paying one of the RBS groups card off at a token rate for about 4 years.

 

They have now started to write insisting I fill in an I/E form or start paying £80 per month or they will take acytion to recover the debt. Now I'm not sure where they get the £80 per month from, the £4 I have been paying is stretching me anyway.

 

How can I tell them politely do go away?

just write to them and thank them for asking for an I/E account after doing the one online with the CAB you find that you have been paying to much in the first place and are now going to reduce your monthly amount to £1 per month till things improve

That's easy to do, thank them for their letter asking you to review you finances, and after going through them you can afford XX for XX months and will review it yourself in say 6 months, by the way they don't have the right to make you send them your/their I&E details only a judge can say that, then make your payments in the usual manner please keep all receipts and keep them safe

 

Have you any further details you can share? are there any charges to reclaim and things like that, all this helps to give you better advise.

Stay off the phone to them don't go through the security say in writing only then hang up,

If I have been of any help, please click on my star and leave a note to let me know, thank you.

I've done that already, but they keep sending demands through. The first demand I replied to I said thanks for reminding me about a review. Please find enclosed my new monthly payment which I have had to reduce by £1 per month due to my increased cost of living.

 

Not sure if that cheered them up to much!

How much is the total owed on this card?

When was it taken out?

How much of the amount is their charges/fees?

 

£1 a month is all you need to pay, they will be very hard pushed to convince a judge that you should pay more.

Who ever heard of someone getting a job at the Jobcentre? The unemployed are sent there as penance for their sins, not to help them find work!

I've done all the prove it and CCA stuff. I'm afraid even though the card was taken out in the late 90's its all enforceable. There's about 2k left to pay.

 

I don't want them getting too snotty as they could push for a Tomlin order..

Can you paste up a copy of the agreement?

any PENALTY charges/PPI?

 

dx

please don't hit Quote...just type we know what we said earlier..

DCA's view debtors as suckers, marks and mugs

NO DCA has ANY legal powers whatsoever on ANY debt no matter what it's Type

and they

are NOT and can NEVER  be BAILIFFS. even if a debt has been to court..

If everyone stopped blindly paying DCA's Tomorrow, their industry would collapse overnight...

I'm paying back small amounts to one of my credit cards

but recently they have been asking me to complete an I/E form to "make sure I can afford the payments".

 

They are threatening to pass my debt to a DCA if I don't comply.

 

I don't really want to get into the realms of an I/E discussion with them,

but neither do I want the debt passed to a grasping DCA.

 

Any suitable tactics to employ?

You don't have to complete an I&E; only a judge can insist you do that. They probably want to see if you can afford to pay more!

 

Which card is it?

 

DCAs tend to be a lot of wind, and they don't have powers like bailiffs. Some are nastier than others, but most of them can be seen off if you are firm with them.

Oh I realise that they aren't worried about my financial health other than to squeeze more money out of me.

Its a Mint card now administered by the RBS.

 

I've had a bit of success with DCA's, but generally it seems better to keep the admin with the card company.

In all likelihood they will pass it onto a DCA whether you fill in an I&E form or not.

 

Even if they did pass it too a DCA, you should still ONLY pay the OC.

 

You can of course fill out your own I&E form, something along the lines of,

Income £500 Mth.

Expenditure £499 Mth.

 

They don't need to know ANY of the private and confidential info on where and how you spend YOUR money.

4 Years, who is it?

 

Have you done all the necessary checks etc?

Can't help thinking they're going to attempt fleecing you for another four years.

Who is the OC?

 

Who is collecting it?

 

Have they bought it or are they simply collecting it on behalf of the OC?

 

Have you reclaimed all of the charges and fees?

 

Have you reclaimed any PPI if there was any?

 

What is the date of default on your credit file?

The OC is one of the RBS cards and the credit card operation in Southend are the lucky recipients. No charges and fees, and its been going since 2004. I've done all the CCA stuff and its a fairly watertight contract, unlike some of the others I have had the pleasure of firing off. CAG has been very helpful in that respect, LOL!
