    • Paper trail off the original creditor often confirms the default and issue of a notice...not having or being able to disclose the actual copy or being able to produce a copy less so.
    • Including Default Notice Andy? Ok, I think this is the best I can do.. it all makes sense with references to their WS. They have included exhibits that dates don't match the WS about them, small but still.. if you're going to reference letters giving dates, then the exhibits should be correct, no? I know I redacted them too much, but one of the dates differs to the WS by a few months. IN THE ******** County Court Claim No. [***] BETWEEN: LC Asset 2 S.A.R.L CLAIMANT AND [***] DEFENDANT ************ _________________________ ________ WITNESS STATEMENT OF [***] _________________________ ________ I, [***], being the Defendant in this case will state as follows; I make this Witness Statement in support of my defence in this claim. 1. I understand that the claimant is an Assignee, a buyer of defunct or bad debts, which are bought on mass portfolios at a much-reduced cost to the amount claimed and which the original creditors have already written off as a capital loss and claimed against taxable income as confirmed in the claimant’s witness statement exhibit by way of the Deed of Assignment. As an assignee or creditor as defined in section 189 of the CCA this applies to this new requirement on assignment of rights. This means that when an assignee purchases debts (or otherwise acquires rights under a credit agreement) it also acquires certain obligations to the borrower including the duty to comply with CCA requirements (such as the rules on statements and notices and other post-contractual information). The assignee becomes the creditor under the agreement. This ensures that essential consumer protections under the CCA cannot be circumvented by assigning the debt to a third party. 2. The Claim relates to an alleged Credit Card agreement between the Defendant and Bank of Scotland plc. Save insofar of any admittance it is accepted that the Defendant has had contractual agreements with Bank of Scotland plc in the past, the Defendant is unaware as to what alleged debt the Claimant refers. 3. The Defendant requested a copy of the CCA on the 24/12/2022 along with the standard fee of £1.00 postal order, to which the defendant received a reply from the Claimant dated 06/02/2023. To this date, the Claimant has failed to disclose a valid agreement and proof as per their claim that this is enforceable, that Default Notice and Notice of Assignment were sent to and received by the Defendant, on which their claim relies. The Claimant is put to strict proof to verify and confirm that the exhibit *** is a true copy of the agreement and are the true Terms and Conditions as issued at the time of inception of the online application and execution of the agreement. 4. Point 3 is noted. The Claimant pleads that a default notice has been served upon the defendant as evidenced by Exhibit [***]. The claimant is put to strict proof to verify the service of the above in accordance with s136 and s196 Law of Property Act 1925. 5. Point 6 is noted and disputed. The Defendant cannot recall ever having received the notice of assignment as evidenced in the exhibit marked ***. The claimant is put to strict proof to verify the service of the above in accordance with s136 and s196 Law of Property Act 1925. 6. Point 11 is noted and disputed. See 3. 7. Point 12 is noted, the Defendant doesn’t recall receiving contact where documentation is provided as per the Claimants obligations under CCA. In addition, the Claimant pleads letters were sent on dates given, yet those are not the letters evidenced in their exhibits *** 8. Point 13 is noted and denied. Claimant is put to strict proof to prove allegations. 9. The Claimant did not provide a true copy of the CCA in response to the Defendants request of 24/12/2022. The Claimant further claims that the documents are sufficient to pursue a Judgement and are therefore copies of original documents in their possession. Conclusion 10. Without the Claimant providing a valid true copy of the executed Credit agreement that complies with the CCA, the Claimant has no grounds on which to enforce this alleged debt. 11. The Defendant was not given ample evidence to prove the debt and therefore was not required to enter settlement negotiations. Should the debt be proved in the future, the Defendant is willing to enter such negotiations with the Claimant. On receipt of this claim I could not recall the precise details of the agreement or any debt and sought clarity from the claimant by way of a Section 78 request. The Claimant failed to comply. I can only assume as this was due to the Claimant not having any enforceable documentation and issuing a claim in hope of an undefended default judgment.   Statement of Truth I, ********, the Defendant, believe the facts stated within this Witness Statement to be 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 it’s truth.

    • AMEX and TSB the 2 Creditors who you need to worry about the least, ever!  Just stop paying them and forget about it, ignore all their threat o gram letters.  Only if, and with these 2 it's a massive if, you end up with a claim form you need to respond, and there will be plenty of help here.
    • No, nothing from Barclays. Turns out i have 2 accounts on here, and i posted originally on the other one. Sorry about that.  
    • Always send with proof of posting from your Post Office, so there is a trail. Conversations , are designed to intimidate into paying, Emails are designed as another way of bombarding. Only EVER communicate in writing, by post.

    • 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’m looking for some advice for my wife with her claim.

Some back ground information, she was a nurse and damagedher back when a patient fell on her in 1980 since then she has been in and outof work until 1995. She has been claiming incapacity benefit since then, whenshe had to give up work permanently. In 2012 she was told to report to the jobcentre plus. She was interviewed there and was told that she shouldn’t havereported to the job centre. He gave her the form to appeal, she filled them inand sent them off. She had a reply saying it was being referred to a tribunal. Sheis still waiting for a date. In the mean time she has been told that her benefitwill be stopped from September.

Any help and advice much appreciated.

you say she was given a form to appeal what was this appeal for?

 

was she transferred from incapacity benefit to ESA?

 

Here's my guess - she was transferred from IB to ESA and placed in the WRAG without a medical. She was asked to attend a Work Focused Interview at the Jobcentre, where the adviser felt that she was not really fit to carry out work-related activity and so gave her the appeal form to ask to be placed in the Support Group where these interviews are not required. She's on contribution based ESA (as she transferred from IB) and that's why she's being told her payments will stop in September - because her 365 days on ESA© will exhaust then.

 

OP, does that sound about right? Could you provide us with as much information as you can figure out?

My wife applied for disability living allowance in April2009 she was assisted with the form filling by the CAB

She had a medical 19 April 2010 on the 27 April shereceived a letter from DWP stating she was not entitled to DLA and how theyreached their decision.

CAB told my wife she should appeal 6/5/2010 sent off anappeal received a reply 16/7/2010 stating the decision is upheld.

On the 10th August she received a letter from ATOSwith an appointment for another medical on the 30th August.

No other correspondence until she received a letter fromthe job centre plus stating that she had been put on the WRAG group 13/09/2012and they would wright to her with a date for an interview.

Interviewed on 31/10/2012. The guy she saw said she shouldn’tbe in the WRAG she should have been put in the Support group. He asked here whyshe hadn’t appealed. Her reply was that she had not received any other correspondence.

He gave her a reconsideration and appeal process leafletto complete a GL24 form. She sent that off same day 31/10/2012. Nothing back tosay they had received her form.

Next letter dated 14/2/2012 saying the enclosed theappeal papers these papers give the reason for our decision. We have sent a copyof the same information and your appeal letter to the tribunal service they willget in touch with you to explain what happens next with the appeal.

She has spoken with the CAB 7/3/2013 and they haveadvised her that she is to inform them of a tribunal date. If that takes 18 monthdoes that mean she will be without any money?

So worst case after 365 day no money loses appeal no more money or is there anything she can do?

 

If the above senario happens your wife can make a new claim for Esa providing 6 months have passed since the original decision, she will need to provide fit notes from her GP, she will be put onto the assessment rate of Esa about £72 per week, alternativly she may be entitled to Income Based Esa if she meets the criteria once her Contribution Esa stops in September. She will receive a letter from Dwp closer to the date to inform her of this, if she meets the criteria there will be no break in payments, payments remain at the same rate as she receives now, My payments stopped last November, been without any income ever since because my hubby works more than 24hrs per week, I did not meet the criteria for Income Based Esa, Won my Tribunal beginning of May, placed into Support Group and now waiting for my payments to be reinstated and any back payments they owe me.
