    • god they've got at you haven't they. told you all the usual utter BS. a CCJ vanishes from your credit file on it's 6th B'Day regardless to being paid off or not or paying or not. same with any debt with a registered defaulted date - it vanishes from your file on the DN's 6th B'day regardless. creditfix are Knightsbridge, (they renamed) there are 100's of threads here on Knightsbridge, if i remember rightly 2 of the directors of a certain very big IVA provider were struck off for embezzling £1m's out of debtors. pers i'd stop paying now.  end of . just ignore them all. 99% of your debts are to utterly powerless DCA's and probably were never owed in the first place only goes to firm up my belief from post one..you got had blind. its very easy to deal with the debts even those with CCJ's. can you copy and paste what you credit file says regarding the IVA please?

    • Sorry I meant credit fix - I really wish I'd known this before - kicking myself right now  If they come back to me asking for more money I'll cancel it and start trying to deal with the debt myself let's see what they say  Feeling tempted to cancel it now but scared that some of the debts will do more CCJ's on me and I'll have to wait 6 years again.  2 of the CCJ come of this year and then I'll only have the iva in credit file - effectively if I'd have not took out the iva in 2021 I'd have clear score by now - but then again would I because I would have been hounded the last 3 years, as bad as it is it's saves me lots of headaches whilst my debt was still within the 6 year mark.  I think most of them are near there but in all honesty no point chasing them if I do cancel iva I'd jjst wait for the ones who contact me and then start the relevant letter process on them.  Of over 6 years easy if not still possible to write off. My true victory would be having the iva wiped off my credit file as mis sold or something that way I Don't have to wait till 2027 Other option is to fight back and ask for them to offer the creditors to accept payments so far and use the following method    Will your IVA firm agree to complete your IVA on the basic of funds paid to date? The Guidance lists a lot of factors to be considered in deciding whether a settlement on the basis of funds paid to date should be proposed. You should read the list. But that may not give you any feel for whether they apply to you or not. The following are my thoughts on when an IVA should be treated as settled, not failed. They assume that you have £75 or less to pay a month: if you would currently qualify for a Debt Relief Order, then your IVA should be settled now  There is no point in making your IVA fail and you have to apply for a DRO – it will not generate another penny for your creditors. If you are renting and owe less than £50,000, check the DRO criteria now and talk to National Debtline on 0808 808 4000 about whether you qualify. You may have been told at the start of your IVA that you aren’t eligible – still check now as the DRO criteria have changed, your situation has got worse, and some people were given incorrect information about DROs at the start. if you have no assets that would be realised in bankruptcy (eg a house with equity, car worth over £2000), then your IVA should be settled now Same as (1), there is no point in making you apply for bankruptcy after your IVA fails. if your only asset is a car that is worth less than £8000, then your IVA should be settled now A car that is worth say £5000 would normally be sold in bankruptcy and you would be given a small amount to buy a cheaper car. But your creditors would not get any benefit from this as the Insolvency Service takes the first £8000 raised to cover its own costs. if you have significant assets, the closer you are to the end of the IVA, the less reasonable it is to fail it If you have been paying your IVA for 4 years, you have done your best over a long period. It isn’t your fault you can no longer continue. The fact you may have had equity to release isn’t relevant as that simply isn’t going to be possible. if your situation will clearly improve soon, then it’s unlikely your IVA will be settled I mean real improvements, not hoping that prices fall. If I can get them to accept payment to date or threaten with cancellation hopefully they may accept it -  Other option is to try and borrow money and pay make a full and final offer  Or I can just ignore and hope for the best which I'm very tempted to do especially if they respond to my review with bullying tactics despite me being skint as a fart with no mortgage as renting  It's so stressful but I've just checked the iva agreement from 2021 and it's Cabot 2 accounts Lowell about 5 accounts and then lots of repeats of the same debt with for example zopa and Cabot same amount listed twice -  also loyyds banks but I'm sure that's older than 6 years and not on credit file anyway  If I can somehow remove the iva from my credit file I'd be happy

    • 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.

Thanks for the letter, its the usual misleading rubbish.

 

NOTHING is outstanding at all, it is only outstanding IF a court claim is bought and IF a judge decides in the stores favour.

 

Why would anyone care if the claim is passed to a debt collector, hey have no powers to do anything more than RLP and in fact I'd recommend it as they would no doubt act in a slightly more professional manner than RLP, its worth remembering that that the potential claimant is still the store NOT RLP nor any DCA.

 

RLP appear to have missed some important options from the list which are:-

 

v. Dismiss the claim in its entirity as there is no legal basis, (in fact if a claim was started I would be tempted to enter a Summary Judgement to have it dismissed on that basis).

 

In any event, all this prolonmged letter tennis only has relevance when used as part of a Pre-Action Protocol CPR (note the words pre-action, it is very clear that RLP have no intention of going anywhere near a court room after their previous embarassment, therefore it is totally irrelevant).

 

Also again Jackie and her gang are still deluded if they think that 'mitigating factors' have any relevance at all in a CIVIL claim.

 

As mentioned above, its nearly over, you are sensible enough not to give in to their demands for unwarranted money :)

Ok so just over a month with no letters.... and I got another today!

 

This one isn't from RLP, which was expected as they apparently "passed my case" onto whoever. Anyway... here is a picture of the letter below. Do I need to send a letter back to this debt collector? Any info would be great, thanks.

It's fine. After all of this I'd like to think this thread will help plenty of people with what to expect.

Bog standard letter from Snotcall. Bottom feeding DCA of the lowest possible order. You can safely ignore them or tell them to do one. RLP will not want to pay for them to send you too many letters as it all gets rather expensive for them!

 

Interesting that they list the Creditor as Primark - I am sure Jackie would be most distressed if you sent her ill-gotten gains directly to Primark instead of her own pocket!

Any advice given is done so on the assumption that recipients will also take professional advice where appropriate.

Is ignoring the right thing to do? Renegadeimp (I think that's his name) said this last time.

 

"They only letter you need to send is to the DCAicon, if and when they contact you. If that happens, come right back here and we can tell you what to say."

 

If replying to them is the best option, could someone tell me what to say... so i can just copy and paste it and send it?

 

Secondly, I'd quite happily send these letters to primark if that'd help, as I'm sure they are oblivious as to what RLP is doing, or rather... how they go about threatening people.

 

Anymore info would be great, thanks.

Also note the use of the word "claim", not "debt" - An acknowledgement perhaps, that the sum being asked for is not a genuine debt.

 

If replying to them is the best option, could someone tell me what to say...

 

I do not acknowledge that the claim of £174.39 is owed to you or any client you purport to represent. Any further communication from yourselves or third parties acting on your behalf will be treated as harassment and will be reported to the relevant authorities.

Hi

Some people want to be pro-active with the bottom feeders (sorry - DCA) and I am one of them-mainly cos I like to bait them.

 

Now it is with Scotcall, this farce is getting closer to being finished.

 

I would send them a simple one liner:

 

"Any claim you allege is denied and therefore I refer you to Presdram and Arkell."

Interesting also that the amount is quite precise £174.39, yet as we know when questioned in Oxford, they couldnt really come up with a decent explanation of how the cost was clacul;ated instead prefering to fall back on the old 'its a contribution to the costs' line (implying that they are a lot more, although still being unable to provide a decent explanation).

Hello, sorry i just read these posts.. i am not able to understand what is the new organization rather than RLP. I still has not received any mail from RLP but still curious to know what this matter all about

 

Scotcall is a debt collection agency who are used by RLP when they fail in their attempts in getting you to pay up. This debt collector has as much power over you as I do- none! It is just the final steps before RLP give up

I don't have microsoft word on this computer so I'm going to have to use a friends to type it out and then send it. I just fear that they won't receive the letter before the "7 days". Would they send another letter or attempt to call?

 

I'm working 60 hours this week I barely have a minute to eat nevermind write a letter and post it haha. Bad timing!

Don't worry about the time frames they say. It means nothing. You could ignore them if you wish as they still cannot do a thing to you.

 

As for not having Microsoft Word. There is a free program on the interweb called Open Office. It works very well.

They are just desparate to get you to pay them before they spend any more moneyon more letters etc. Dont encourage them by writing at all, just ignore them.

If the creditor really is Primark then they have no right to chasing you at all, only Primark can do that. Now as Primark havent supplied you with any goods or services they arent going to be after any money so why should you pay these people?

Ok well I guess I'm ignoring this letter too, unsure if it's the right decision but we'll see in a couple of days.

 

Does anyone know what the next letter will be like, usually its a routine right... RLP, threaten threaten threaten, DCA... then what

It is highly likely you will get around 3 letters from snotcall with the final one saying something along the lines of:

 

As you haven't contacted us etc. we may now recommend to our client that they take legal action.

 

This means bu**er all as their client (RLP) cannot do that anyway.

 

No need to stress.

If scotcall contact you, ignore them. Totally. They send 2-3 generic letters then run off. They are literally the DCA that is at the very bottom of the barrel. They just like making lots of noise to make them appear tougher than they actually are.

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..

Hello all,

 

Finally i got the letter from RLP.

 

Its written that "our client is anxious to recoup their costs, they are also inclines to use Civil Recovery as a deterrent against further incidents. in consideration of the particular circumstances of this case, our client is prepared to suspend this case indefinitely, providing you are not involved, or are suspected to be involved, in any further incidents on any of our clients premises.

 

You are further notified that your details will be held n strict accordance with the Data Protection Act 1998.

 

If you do not believe you are responsible for the incident then you should send a full written response within 21 days, clearly outlining the specific areas of dispute and providing a defense.

 

This is just a part of the letter, rest its explaing what exactly happened that day.

 

My question:

 

What is my next step?

why they have not mentioned any fine or compensation in the letter? are they going to come my place and take me to jail?

what is this Data Protection Act? Will i be stopped at the Airport while going back to India.

 

Reply ASAP.

 

Thanks

Ignore it. Or send the one line letter.

 

You will NOT go to jail. How many times do we have to say it before people listen.

 

RLP HAVE ABSOLUTELY NOTHING TO DO WITH THE LEGAL SYSTEM AND NEVER WILL.

 

They have no rights, no legal standing nothing. it is one woman trying to trick money out of people by playing on their guilt. Plain and simple.

 

Primark probably dont even know RLP are sending the letters with this content.

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..

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...
