    • Honestly you are all amazing on this site, thank you so much for your help and time. ill keep an eye out and only return when i receive a claim letter for sure also, i updated my address with amex and tsb before i even missed payments. the initial address was my family home but i dont reside there. to avoid a bombardment of letters there i have now updated my address, will they send all threats etc to the new address? Or old address?   do you reccomend i send both tsb and amex my update in address via a letter?
    • 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.

The thing is

 

i had my freezer in november 2011

in december it staring to freeze and defrost all the time

didn.t do anything until january when

 

i phoned hotpoint up and they told me [which was so wrong] was to put an airdryer in my freezer

and melt the ice

 

now i was doing this for months until april, when

 

i had enough and phoned bayv

 

i didn.t take insurance out with them but with hotpoint as at this point i didn.t know my legal rights.

 

They got someone out to fix it and

i had many more repairs after that

i.ve had to same parts that causes this

i.ve had 2 new doors on the 8/10/13 after doors broke

they live at my house.

 

Well got up this morning and the warning lights are flashing and its telling you its over heated

and the food is no longer anygood and is defrosted etc

 

can.t get it fixed until monday and

normally u knock it off and it stops

but today no it keeps flashing which ain.t a good sign

 

freezer full and fridge got lots of meat etc which is no good.

 

what i.d like to know is

 

how do i get a replacement on this fridge freezer cause i.ve had enough

 

i know i.m entitled to one as its never been fit for purpuse

but how do i go about it.

 

My insurance is with dg and can i claim for food waste off them

can.t afford to waste all that food and money

i.ve got very soggy boxes in freezer.

Purchased November 2011

 

go back to the retailer demand a full refund and compensation for unusable freezer food and quote SOGA

(google this and have a read )and

 

state the Fridge Freezer is not fit for purpose.

 

You will probably get a fight from the retailer.

 

Come back to us and we can help further.

Sorry not come across Buy as you View,

 

I have Googled this scheme and understand the system.

 

I am pleased they are offering a new one,

this is a start.

Dig your heels in and insist you want the same size Fridge Freezer,

 

Try the same Hotpoint model if they cannot offer the colour,size etc from another maker.

I generally find Hotpoint OK,

 

have Fridge Freezer and Washer dryer both hotpoint,

the chances of getting another bad one is probably remote

 

Good Luck FS

OK I understand,

 

is there not a model available from another supplier at a similar price and size that you require,

 

if so insist on this as a replacement,

 

reminding them of the cost of damaged food and the huge waste of time and inconvenience you have experienced

 

Regards

Hi again

 

right they said i can have a bigger fridge and only one they do is beko side by side

which is a bit more expensive 400

 

so they want me to pay this plus interest on top of the 400 over what ever terms i want .

 

But this fridge is only 599 in argos to buy now

so why would i pay over 500 for a year on this fridge when i.ve already paid nearly 1000 already

plus another year left on it which will be over 2000 in a years time

i can buy 3 fridges for that.

 

what should i do.

Hi,

they do not seem to have compensated you for the vast inconvenience you were put to

and the loss of frozen food,

 

tell them you will off set this substantial amount against the new appliance,

and you do not propose to pay them any further money,

apart from that amount originally agreed until they have made an acceptable offer of compensation.

 

Should they not agree,

EMAIL their CEO direct and also the CEO of Hotpoint,

 

who I think is based in Italy

 

,if you have problems tracking down these people shout and I will have a further search

Yeah when i done this was before i knew all my rights

as you told me about them before with bh a

nd now i practally know everything .

 

I know that they should of been fixing the problem and for first year they did .

 

i told them i didn.t want their insurance and they told me they would cover me for first year after that was upto me

so i took out insurance with dg straight away so

 

last year they have been doing the repairs.

 

Won my claim with bh am suppose to be taking bayv to court for previous misselling if the insurance.

 

I know i can win it as did with bh.

 

just taking me longer as just had a baby 3 minths ago and not been well either.

 

in the 3 months i.ve had 3 repairs its becoming a joke now.

 

So bayv want me to finish paying for my hotpoint fridge for another year that i.ve had left plus the extra 400 on this new one

they are exchanging for plus interest

 

it comes to about 2100 maybe more time i finished paying for it.

 

This new fridge is only 599 at the most to buy brand new

their cash price is more than double that

then nearly double that with interest over 156 wks its a joke

and can.t believe how i.ve used these companys over the years cause i know i won.t again.

Yeah i know that now

 

what do i tell bayv that under soga they are to replace the fridgefreezer free of charge as its in the replacement clause

 

.they got back to me this morning and said they will take £25 off the 400 + interest for loss of food and low cost phone calls what a laugh and

 

i told them no way is that acceptable

 

.i.ve had about 20 repairs land hotpoint ain.t a low cost number to ring and

 

its been more than once i.ve lost food .

 

My fridge tells me when the tempature over heats and gives u a warning that the level is high and food as been ruined and to throw it away

 

.this as happened many times and as it was happening over night

 

you wouldn.t know until morning when everything is ruined.

Hi antonia26 ,

Further to our recent correspondence,

you have advised that you do not wish to accept our offer of a Free replacement which is the same model as the one you currently have.

 

We have therefore offered you one which is the closest specification to the one you have had Free of charge and you have also rejected this offer.

 

You have now requested a much larger model and advised you were happy to pay for the upgrade.

As you have chosen a model which is more expensive this will be chargeable to yourself as this is not a like for like replacement.

You have also advised you were happy to wait two weeks to be able to have this item as this is delivered directly from the manufacturers due to the size.

 

The offer for a Free replacement to the same model is still applicable

or alternatively the Free replacement which is of a similar specification is also available.

 

We would also like to remind you that you have not paid for any extended warranty or EPS cover on this item.

You have not previously advised us of any loss of food or provided us with any receipts as proof of loss,

however we have offered you £25 as a gesture of goodwill on top of the offer of a Free like for like replacement.

 

Please advise how you would like us to proceed?

Kind Regards

BAYV

The fridge you offered me was half the size of my fridge and i thought i would have to pay the difference

but then advised that i didn.t have to pay any difference also thw fact of the matter is i would have to pay the rest of the year left on my agreement

and the 400 plus interest and that fridge freezer is only worth just over 500 at the most 599 ,

 

why would i go and pay you all that money when i can buy one out for less.

 

So now i.ll quote what trading standards supply of goods and service act 1982:

the goods supplied as part of the hire contract must be

: of satisfactory quality

: fit for their intended purpose and any purpose made known to the trader

: as described.

If you hire goods which do not confirm to the contract,

which means they are not of

satisfactory quality,

fit for purpose or

as described,

 

you have the right to redress.

 

The type of goods hired ,

the nature of the breach and the length of the hire contract can determind the remedy you are entitled to.

 

these remedies can be repair or replacement of the goods or full or partial refund,

 

if the hire contract is cancelled or altered.

You may also be entitled to claim conseqential damages(losses you incur as a direct result of the trader hiring faulty goods out to you.

 

i.ve accually got a legal right to a refund or replacement as my item is of not satisfactory quality and is not fit for purpose.

 

i think the best thing is a refund so i can go and buy another fridge which is cheaper for me

and the contract can be cancelled

 

i.ve paid over a third so we can do this .

 

look forward to hearing from you.

 

I can get hotpoint copys of every repair to show you what i.ve had done

and how many times it has over heated and

it tells you that the food in the fridge is not safe to eat and

 

i.ve also taken insurance out on it which i didn.t need

as your responable for fixing it

 

as in this has been breaking down since a month after i had it

 

at the time hotpoint gave me false information about it

and i struggled for months with the problem until i phoned them again and

 

they told me to phone you and since then i.ve had repair after repair

 

i was hired a faulty item which by law cancels our contract as goods wasn.t what it was described as.

Supply of goods and service act 1982.

 

When a trader hires out goods to a consumer,

a service is provided so the supply of goods and service act 1982 applies.

 

You are entitled to expect that the hire service is carried out.

 

The goods supplied as part of the hire contract must be

: of satisfactory quality.

: fit for their intended purpose and any purpose made known to the trader.

: as described.

 

If you hire goods which do not confirm to the contract .

 

Which means they are not of satisfactory quality ,

fit for purpose

or as described ,

you have the right to redress.

 

The type of goods hired ,

the nature of the breach

and the length of the hire contract

can determind the remedy you are entitled to.

 

These remedies can be repair

or replacement

or the goods

or full

or partial refund,

 

if the hire contract is cancelled or altered.

 

You may also be entitled to claim consequential damages losses you incur as a direct result of the trader hiring faulty goods out to you.

 

Circumstances when customers do have a legal right to a refund,repair or replacements.

 

If the items does not match the description.

Is not of satisfactory quality.

Is not fit for purpose.

 

Each of these circumstances would mean that the item doea nit conform to contract and therefore it can be described as faulty.

 

I.ve paid for insurance which i didn.t need as your responsable for repairs for 6 years.

 

It also states that a refund repair or replacement should not cause them too much inconvenience .

 

So offering me a fridge that is the same value is no good as its the size i need

and that would be a big inconveinence that fridge was a hell of a lot smaller

and the side by side is only a little bigger than my one now.
