    • Your point 4 deals with that and puts them to strict proof .....but realistically they are not in a position to state that within their particulars they were not the creditor at the time of default but naturally assume the OC would have...so always worth challenging and if you get a DJ who knows his onions on the day may ask for further evidence from the OC internal accounts system. 
    • I see, shame, I think if a claim is 'someone was served' then proof of that should be mandatory. Appreciate your input into the WS whenever you get chance, thanks in advance
    • 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. Creditors are not compelled to keep copies of the actual default notice so you will in most cases get a reconstituted version but must contain accurate figures/dates/format.     .    
    • 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.

    • 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 have finally bit the bullet and filed my MCOL!!!!! I never recieved a second offer however whenever I call them regarding day to day running of my account they keep telling me HO are looking into it!!!!!!

 

Now I have a problem.....My spreadsheets have a total amount for charges then interest then judicial interest. I did not include the figure for judicial interest on my MCOL total amount as it will be ongoing (i think?) However I did include the part in my particulars of claim regarding the daily amount of judicial interest.

I am going to post my spreadsheets to the court manager do I leave of the judicial interst amount? And what letter do I now send to the bank with copies of the statements (do i leave out the judicial interest on those to)?

 

I had sent copies of spreadsheets with LBA originally but have had more charges applied.

 

I feel like i'm in a pickle......Please HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!????????

Hi Claire

Dont panic im sure the sec69 can be added at the AQ stage ( although if it is on your SS you have to send a copy to Woolwich/Barclays and the court anyway so it will be on their anyway just enclose a covering letter with them explaining this.(and dont forget to clearly mark your Case number on everything you send to the court and W/B).

If you have had more charges applied do a seperate sheet and send it with the others.

Once you have filed you will i believe have to save them for another time:(

Thanks Al! Think I was just getting in a flap because I want to make sure its done properly.

 

I will send statements with Judicial interest amount included. In letter to the bank do I just inform them I have started court proceedings and I am including a detailed copy of figures for their reference, will that cover it?

I do not think that is correct regarding including SI at AQ stage. Personally I would amend your claim. To amend use this form:

http://www.consumeractiongroup.co.uk/forum/bank-templates-library/41901-form-n244-application-notice.html

 

Once you file your claim, then you cannot add further charges with applying to amend it formally, normally this delays the whole process, usually better off waiting and then starting a new claim once the initial one is completed. However, in the case of your interest should amend soonest.

 

Anyway, as you filed on line send 2 copies of your schedule of charges, clearly marked with your claim no. and a brief covering letter asking for them to be filed with your claim to:

 

The Court Manager,

Money Claim On Line

Northampton County Court

21-27 St. Katharine's Street

Northampton

NN1 2LH

 

Dear Sir/Madam

 

(Your Name) –v- (Bank)

Claim No: ********

Date Issued: xx/xx/xx

 

Please find enclosed a schedule of penalty charges taken from me by the defendant, along with interest claimed at the annual rate of 8% pursuant to section 69 of the County Court Act. The interest in addition to the amount in charges equates to the total amount of my claim, namely £(AMOUNT).

 

I respectfully request that the enclosed schedule should be attached to the particulars of my claim.

Yours sincerely,

 

Wait until you receive the Notice of Acknowledgement (not the Notice of Issue) from the court and then send a copy to the bank’s solicitors, since they are the ones who will now be dealing with your claim

 

Dear Sir,

 

(Your Name) -v- (Bank)

Claim No: ********

Date Issued: xx/xx/xx

 

 

Please find enclosed a copy of my schedule of charges relating to the above claim.

 

Yours faithfully

I have recieved notice of issue. So at the moment i'm tring to get one step ahead and get my court bundle ready. I'm a little worried though as I'm not 100% on some of the details and jargon, I guess I'm just gonna keep reading over it till it sinks in and makes sense!

As said before I am trying to get my court bundle ready. Printing 3 lots of everything but I am now wondering if I should wait until I receive Notice of acknowledgement (just thinking of all the trees)!!!! Or court date?

Also do I need to photocopy my bank statements 3 times as there are about 80 odd pages worth.

Any advice much appriciated! Thanks guys and gals

I never bothered with the bundle at all Claire (It was because of the tree thing not laziness;) ).

 

I was always aware I may need to, but your okay for a good while yet. When you get your court date (or post up if something happens in between) call Barclays and they should settle within the week:)

 

JMHO.

Hiya all! Just another wee question....

Person living at english address (for MCOL) is going to be away all next week as mentioned before woolwich have until 11th to acknowledge claim (next sunday) do you think this would pose a problem for me if anything arrives by post to that address while she is away?

 

P.S Thai has some under the counter bank vids available (claire chuckles uncontrolably)!!!!

That won't pose any probs Claire, you won't be needing to do anything for a couple of weeks at least because Barclays will intentionally drag thier heels to max out your wait. Having said that they are soooo busy these days they're probably left with no choice but to need all the time afforded to them by the process.

 

Thai has no under counter vids, Thai not live in dark ages, Thai have Broadband;)

Hi there just to keep you updated I have received Notice of Acknowledgement stating that they intend to defend! Tomorrow I will post copy of schedule of charges to banks legal Dept then do I just wait 28 days and see what happens? When would I receive AQ?

You don't need to send SOC at this stage, unless they don't have one already, they now have 14 days to defend (plus the extra bit Barclays like to abuse the proces with). Thier defence should arrive via court communication with AQ included. Your doing great hun x

 

It goes without saying, fibs aside, they have no real intention to defend - you shall be paid before they show the nation what they are really all about..:rolleyes: prciks;)

Thanks once more Thai!

I'm really getting into this now, the more things progress the more certain I am that I'll have all my money back soon so much so that I have got 6 of my friends and relatives starting to claim back charges too, when i first told people what I was doing they thought I was mad taking on a big financial org but with all the press and tv coverage they have been asking me what to do. I have put them onto this site and gave them copies of the template letters they need to get them started and its all thanks to people like yourself and the many others on here that this major kick up the banks ass is happening. POWER TO THE PEOPLE!!!!!!!! xxx

Just want to check in case you have not done so, that despite post 69 you do need to send a copy of your schedule of charges as post 54 to the court and then to whoever is representing the Woolwich as you filed using MCOL.

Im confused here GuidoT are you saying its because claire filed using mcol she now has to send SOCs ? and that those of us who submitted SOCs when filing our claim personally to the court (not via mcol) dont need to???.

 

As that is what I did I presume I dont need to do anything but wait for the AQ.

Delboy01 - With MCOL you cannot attach the SOC - they need to sent separately.

 

If filed the traditional way by post or in person you should have attached the SOC to your claim form (N1) so there is no need to send a further copy.
