    • Received a final demand today Final demand.pdf
    • Here is my final draft: I, XXXXXX, being the Defendant in this case will state as follows; I make this Witness Statement in support of my defence in the claim and further to my set aside application dated 1 November 2022. The claimants witness statement confirms that it mostly relies on hearsay evidence as confirmed by the drafts in person in the opening paragraph. It is my understanding they must serve notice to any hearsay evidence pursuant to CPR 33.2(1)(B) (notice of intention to rely on hearsay evidence) and Section 2 (1) (A) of the Civil Evidence Act.   1.        The claimant failed to comply with the additional directions ordered by District Judge Davis on the 2 February 2024 'The Claim shall be automatically struck out at 4pm on 3 April 2024 unless the Claimant delivers to the Court and to the Defendant the following documents.' None of these documents were received by the court nor the defendant by that date.   2.        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 wrote off as a capital loss and claimed against taxable income as confirmed in the claimants 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.   3.        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.  I have attached a copy of my tenancy agreement which is marked ‘Appendix 1’ and shows I was residing at a difference address as of 11 December 2018 and was therefore not at the service address at the time the proceedings were served.  I have also attached an email from my solicitors to the Claimants solicitors dated 14 July 2022 which was sent to them requesting that they disclose the trace of evidence they utilised prior to issuing the proceedings against me.  This is marked ‘Appendix 2’.  The claimants solicitors did not provide me with these documents.   4.        Under The Pre-Action Protocol for Debt Claims 2017 a Debt Buyer must undertake all reasonable enquiries to ensure the correct address of a debtor, this can be as simple as a credit file search. The Claimant failed to carry out such basic checks. Subsequently all letters prior to and including ,The Pre action Protocol letter of claim dated 7 January 2020 and the claim form dated 14th February 2020 were all served to a previous address which I moved out of in 2018.   5.        I became aware of original Judgement following a routine credit check on or around 14th September 2020.   6.        Upon the discovery of the Judgement debt, I made immediate contact with the Court and the Claimant Solicitors, putting them on notice that I was making investigations in relation to the Judgement debt as it was not familiar to me.  I asked them to provide me with a copy of the original loan agreement but this was not provided to me.   The correspondence to the Claimant Solicotors is attached and marked ‘Appendix 3’   7.        I then sent a Data Subject Access Request to Barclays but no agreement was provided. Details the timeline of communication between myself and Barclays are attached and marked ‘Appendix 4’and the copies of correspondence between myself and Barclays are attached and marked ‘Appendix 5’.   8.        The claimant relies upon and exhibits a reconstituted version of the alleged agreement.   It is again denied that I have ever entered into an agreement with Barclaycard on or around 2000.  It is admitted that I did hold other credit agreements with other creditors and as such should this be a debt that was assigned to Barclaycard from another brand therefore the reconstituted agreement disclosed is invalid being pre April 2007 and not legally enforceable pursuant to HH Judge Waksman in Carey v HSBC 2009 EWHC3417.  Details of this are attached and marked ‘Appendix 6’.   The original credit agreement must be provided along with any reconstituted version on a modified credit agreement and must contain the names and address of debtor and creditor, agreement number and cancelation clause.   9.        Therefore the claimant is put to strict proof to disclose a true executed legible agreement on which its claim relies upon and not try to mislead the court.   10.   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. Until such time the claimant can comply and disclose a true executed copy of the original assigned agreement they refer to within the particulars of this claim they are not entitled while the default continues, to enforce the agreement pursuant to section 78.6 (a) of the Credit Consumer Act 1974. 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.

    • Hi folks, I've just found previous documentation. I thought it had gone missing. I'd forgotten that I did appeal it through POPLA but I can't find the thread on here that, I assume, I posted for help. Appeal letter is dated 27/10/2020 with a rejection. I genuinely had forgotten about this so apologies for misleading you. A lot has happened in the years since the ticket was issued. We closed down a couple of businesses and moved to the opposite end of the country to retire. The documents I have are scanned copies. I no longer have the originals. The NTK is also in there. If there's anything you'd like to see, please let me know and I'll post them, although it probably won't be until tomorrow now, but I'll be looking in on this page tonight. Thank you for the responses so far
    • Hello! After emailing them I received this reply:   I have drafted the following, please would you be able to comment as to if you think it is correct/sufficient? "Thank you for your email.   Thanks you for confirming that the vehicle does not have these features as stated in the advertisement.    I am sure you are aware that the Consumer Rights Act 2015 provides the short term right to reject within 30 days. Statutory rights cannot be taken away from a consumer, and any attempt to do so is illegal.   Please can you advise how best to return the vehicle?" Thanks in advance!

    • 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.

Barclay they made me another offer and I have till 18/11/2013 to accept it the offer is made of the original charges + interest However, barclays saying

1) I need to pay income tax on the interest that I have claimed as it's compensation payment. Therefore barclays will deduct 20% from the interest awarded.

2) The settlement sum will also cover any other claims may be said to arise out of the same fact.

 

Can I I deal with the tax myself?

I don't understand what do they mean the second condition?

 

Any hep will be appreciated as I have only few days to make a decision.

1) PPI payouts are usually formed from three elements.

 

The first two constitute the compensation. They are:

 

A refund of the premiums paid

Interest you have paid on the premium

The third part is additional interest on the compensation at 8% per annum (not compounded, so no interest on interest). It is this part that is taxed.

 

Tax is owed for the tax year you are paid compensation in.

 

Who owes tax?

 

Interest on PPI compensation is treated the same way as savings so all taxpayers who are paid additional interest will owe tax.

 

This is because the idea of compensation is to put you in the place you would have been had you not been mis-sold.

 

Had you not paid out the PPI premiums it is assumed you'd have that cash in the bank. Additional interest is paid as compensation as it is assumed you'd get a return on that money in the bank.

 

Therefore, it is taxed as a savings account would be.

 

However, interest is not always paid on credit card PPI redress. Where it is not paid there is no tax owed.

 

How do I know if I've been paid interest?

 

It should be split out from the compensation on your redress offer letter from your lender.

 

How much tax will I owe?

 

You pay savings tax, and hence PPI tax, depending on what tax band you're in from your earnings.

 

A basic rate taxpayer (who pays 20% tax), for instance, will pay £20 for every £100 in interest.

 

Won't tax be automatically deducted?

 

Some providers deduct basic rate tax at source but you'll need to check, as if they don't, or if you owe more than they deduct, you'll have to organise a payment yourself (see below for how to pay).

 

Of the major banks, only RBS and Natwest deduct tax. Barclays (including Barclaycard), Halifax, HSBC, Lloyds TSB and Santander do not deduct tax.

 

If tax is deducted at 20%, higher and top rate payers will need to make a top-up payment.

 

What if I got a refund years ago?

 

You must declare any tax paid within the last six tax years, says HM Revenue & Customs (HMRC).

 

Many PPI reclaims will go back to 2006, while the bandwagon picked up momentum in 2007 when we launched our PPI reclaiming campaign, so most will owe tax as the majority of payouts happened over the past six years.

 

How do I pay tax owed?

 

If you owe money and you are an employee, let HMRC know by contacting your tax office or call its income tax helpline on 0845 300 0627.

 

It can then readjust your tax code, which lowers your personal tax-free allowance, so the additional cash can be collected via your wage packet.

 

If you fill out a self assessment form, you must declare any interest as savings interest on that form and pay money owed as part of your overall tax bill.

 

If you cannot afford to pay, contact HMRC as it can give you more time in exceptional circumstances.

 

 

2) Simply means that the settlement is in F&FS no further claims can come from this matter.

 

Regards

 

Andy

Thanks Andyorch for the detailed explanation, by the way my claim is to do with credit card charges no PPI .I do understand that same rules are applied when it come to the tax. At the moment, I am unemployed it is possible to claim the deducted tax back or tell

barclaycard not to deduct the tax and i will take full responsibility regarding the tax issue.

2) I do have another barclaycard (visa) with a lot of charges over the years, does it means I am not allowed to file a claim?according to their second condition (see #52).

3) They also mentioned, barclaycard bought back the debt from Lowell group . Therefore they will deduct an £xxx from the settlement. My question do I need to see the evidence of their purchase as I have seen a case in this site one of the member had a similar case, BC deduct an amount from the settlement money and when he checked his credit file he found that the debts was reported by DC as not settled.

Ok, Andyorch thanks for your help. I will email barclay litigation department and state my condition of the offer:

 

1) I am not a tax payer and if the deduct the tax from the compentiation,they need to send me a tax certificate of payment.

2) The payment shoul be made as cheque and not in the barclaycard A/C.

3) Wipe out any data on my credit file relating to barclaycard debt.

4) Not*to set off the £xxx in respect of an account which you sold to a third party (lowell). The amount you repay to me will be used to clear debts owed to creditors on a pro-rata basis at my discretion.

 

My point is they sold my A/c to DC for a fraction of the value of the original debt and set off in account book as bad debt for tax purposes. Now they are saying the brought it back and the wanted to set it off against the settlement.

 

"The authority for my views is the case of Edlington Properties v. Fenner & Co. Ltd [2005] EWHC 2158 (QB) which affirms this position that the assignor has no right of set-off to a third party (assignee) for a damages claim brought against it post-assignment, as any equitable set-off in this regard is personal in nature and the debt sold is not transferred subject to it."

Any comment or I am pushing my luck?
