    • Yeah I figured, unlikely I'll need credit anyway mortgage all paid off etc so I'll take that on the chin and learn from the experience. Probably would've beaten that too had I remembered the protocol, first time ever going through the process though sob it wasn't familiar to me  Oh well  
    • This is my slightly amended WS taking on board your previous comments, any suggestions for amendments would be most appreciated.  Thank you for you time.   1.        I am the Defendant in this matter. 2.        The facts in this statement come from my personal knowledge. 3.        I became aware of original Judgement following a routine credit check on or around 14th September 2020. 4.        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. 5.        The Judgement debt was not familiar to me so I began investigations to ascertain what the debt related to and how such a figure had been equated in any event. 6.        I made immediate contact with the Court, the Claimant Solicitors and the Claimants thereafter, asking them to provide me with a copy of the original loan agreement but this was not provided to me.  7.        I sent a Data Subject access Request to Barclays but no agreement was provided – See appendix 1 which details the timeline of communication between myself and Barclaycard as well as copies of correspondence between us. 8.        I do not admit to entering an agreement with Barclaycard in 2000. 9.       The claimant has failed to comply with the additional directions ordered by District Judge Davis and therefore this claim should be automatically struck out.  10.    The claimants have failed to disclose a true executed copy of the original agreement they refer to within the particulars of this claim. They are not entitled to enforce the agreement pursuant to section 78.6 (a) of the Credit Consumer Act 1974 12.   The reconstituted standard Barclaycard agreement that the claimant has included in the court bundle does not satisfy any CCA request and so the claimant is and remains in default of my CCA request and therefore unable to enforce the alleged agreement. 13.  The claimants have failed to provide proof the assignment, such as a deed of assignment. 14.  The claimant has failed to provide a statement of account setting out how the alleged debt accrued under that agreement 15.   Despite numerous requests to the claimant, I have still not seen any evidence, such as an original agreement or deed of assignment, that substantiates the claimant’s assertion that I owe the debt to the claimant, nor evidence of how the debt was accrued. 16.   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. 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.
    • A set aside application costs £275 which is more than the judgement so not worth it. Not that they would grant a set aside anyway.  Set asides are granted, for example, to people who moved and didn't get the court papers, so have a genuine reason for not defending.  Forgetting doesn't count. Your only choices are to pay up within 30 days, or defy the court and not pay.  If the latter, we've never seen a PPC enforce judgement for a single ticket, ever, you would get away without paying - but you would have a CCJ and a knackered credit file for six years.

    • 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.

Thoughts in your day


Recommended Posts

I wanted to start this thread as a middle ground for 'What made you smile/swear today.' We have thoughts which don't make us smile or swear but you contemplate on an issue. What concerns you, what worries you, how you would rectify it. There's also the good things that work, you may have new ideas, a space for any thoughts you have on your mind.

 

My thought today is how large privatised companies can hold the country to ransom, being big and powerful and if there's a problem you will do our bidding. The Banks and energy companies come to mind.

It is said the Chinese are chess players, play over the long term to win. The thing is finding out exactly what the prize is for winning. We have to make sure short term gain so prevalent in our society now, doesn't put us in a bad position long term. It's a concern when another country is investing so much so quickly, at what price?

If some MPs feel they need a pay rise to meet their financial needs, how do they connect with people who do not earn any where near their current salary or those unemployed. They are advocating we can survive this 'austere' period so why can't they on the wages they earn. Simple really I suppose, they don'y do austere. I don't see that as leading by example.

Good to see you SG:-D Hope your all goes according to plan. Nice violin piece in the song reminds me of the violin played in 'You wear it well' Rod Stewart 1972.

We performed on Weds, don't have to borrow mics anymore! Vid in the making so we can see how we performed.

 

I may go to a local tnite for mince pies and mulled wine. Mine prefer to watch Tottenham in the rain, good luck!

 

Christmas Supermarket Secrets BBC1tday very interesting.

The PM rejects a petition which had received 100,000 sigs in one day calling for foreign aid cash to go to British flood victims. Instead he pledged a blank cheque for councils to deal with the floods. He insists money is no object. He went on to say we are a wealthy country, we have a growing economy. If money is needed for clean-up, money will be made available. He vowed householders would each get thousands of pounds to help protect their properties against future inundations. Now, this is a very different take on the dreaded austerity stance. If we have a national deficit, how can we afford foreign aid? I think the public deserve transparency on what the master plan is, and they wonder why they don't get a majority.

 

Barclays will be adding to the unemployed claimants. That's bankers for you.

Because when your cushy job at Downing Street comes to an end, you use your contacts to gain a position in the UN as an Ambassador.

 

This guarantees a top wage, kick backs, nice hotels, 3 lunches a day plus banquets in the evening & all at the expense of most of the UK.

:madgrin:

 

It's becoming clear to those affected by the flooding how the water is managed. It really wasn't transparent and we see again how the truth is air brushed. Climate change experts want that 500 mil to sort our long term flood management needs. Overseas aid should become home aid.

We are starting to see the admission of the changing status of National Insurance contributions. It was set up to fund the state pension and the NHS, unemployment contributions? We are guided to understand, maybe for some time, it's use has had a wider scope. Maybe there was a concern people's concept was the NI contributions were for a specific reason, and there were certain expectations from that. I suppose it won't be long before it's amalgamated with tax deductions so it can be justified to be used for general use.

I have a friend who is a registrar. There was a marriage to take place which was reportied to immigration. The couple could clearly not communicate with each other. Immigration was contacted and they said they did not have anyone available to get to the venue and intervene. The marriage had to go ahead because there was no one in authority to intervene on what was clearly a questionable 'marriage'.

 

Water cannons? What are you expecting? Social discontent? I wonder why.

 

Mr Clegg asked if the Government have any clout with bankers bonuses. His reply IMO was a resounding No!

The Church shouldn't have to feel they need to consult MP's before they speak out for the electorate, as IDS has suggested this morning. The Clergy know more about what's happening at grass roots I believe.

Very frustrating for you and the family BC. Tell the authority you've got a problem with time wasters, maybe they can find a way to stop this, i.e the person viewing is obligated you can view their home. Hope you get the move you want soon.

I believe we are starting to see the demise of the NHS. Jobs are gradually being migrated to private companies. Jobs are being downgraded to pay staff less. Staff being asked to reapply for their jobs. Seems it's being done under the radar so it doesn't get noticed.

Glad the paps are reporting 'What recovery.' It has to be felt by the ground force before recovery is a reality. It's when people have money in their pockets to spend in the economy you can claim recovery. One glimmer of hope is the talk of starting the HS2 project from both ends. I believe it would be Crewe and London and then meeting in the middle. This makes sense creating jobs in more than one place in the country at the same time.

The new garden city proposal in Ebbsfleet. Lets hope it gets off the ground soon and we don't see overseas investors taking advantage of it, which has happened in London.

 

The thought the most clever and able always come from the privileged schooling as was George Osborne's inference I think. Granted the facilities are top notch but intelligence does not stop with these education establishments. Intelligence is one thing they don't hold the monopoly on.

 

The Crimean referendum.

 

The missing plane is a mystery we are told but when you think a plane can disappear into the abyss without trace in these times, seems incredible.

I can see now why they didn't like the Clergy speaking out about poverty and the likes of loan sharks, the gagging order against protest and speaking out against the Government. Now I thought we were a democracy http://www.theguardian.com/politics/2014/jan/28/lobbying-bill-passes-house-lords

 

I keep getting a pop up at the side of my CAG home page for League of Angels and how i've got to guard her. Maybe there's a msg there.

It is reported we are becoming a Downton Abbey society. I presume they mean by this, 'know your place'. This would also cover not having ideas above your station. I have noticed mens beards are very much in now so they may have a point.

Maybe i'm missing something with the Prestorious case but, you would know the other person is not in the bed, where they were.The brain then thinks the person they can hear is the person who was in the bed. The following course of events the way he describes them has not convinced me his actions were not premeditated.

 

One of the clips I saw of him in Court during the case showed him laughing at something. Very inappropriate I thought. I'm sure Reeva's friends won't hold back on their thoughts.
