    • 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.

Hi folks , another family issue .

 

My son took a payday loan out to cover his mortgage, as he was in court over it a few weeks ago and wanted to be up to date with his repayments. The loan was due to be paid last week and wasnt .

 

On wed 23rd oct emailed his payday loan company , providing them with an expenditure form and an offer of repayment of £10 per month . their reply is below

 

Thank you for your email.

 

You currently have an outstanding balance of xxxxxx

We would like to offer you 2 repayment plan options.

1)Balance over 2 months -£xxxxx per month

2) Balance over 3 months – £xxxxx per month

Please note whilst your account is not in a repayment plan status further interest will be incurred and our system will try to recoup the full outstanding balance at any given time.

Finally, we will also look to sell your account to a doorstep collection agency.

Please confirm which option you would like to go for should you want to set up a repayment plan with us.

 

His reply

 

Sorry but I can't afford that much. I was told to stop all non piortirty debts and focus on my mortgage and rates r else I will lose my home. I went to court last week and unless I keep to my payments the mortgage company will be granted repossion straight away. As for rates they were granted a order by the court already and I need to get it up to date by April.

Their reply

 

Thank you for your response.

 

Taking into account that you only recently opened your account with us last month and we have received no payments to date back, there is little in terms of a repayment plan we can offer you.

 

Please let us know should your circumstances change and if you are able to split your balance over 2/3 months.

 

Many thanks,

 

My son was at work and didnt reply to their last email . Thurs 24th Oct loan company take £100 from his account followed by a further £50 Fri 25th they took another £100 leaving him broke with 3 kids to feed.

 

Am I right in thinking they were a bit premature in taking £250 of him as he had made contact and was trying to negoiate with them and had in fact made them an offer? Should he or does he have grounds to complain to ombudsman , and incur these people a charge ? Or does he have and fighting chance of getting his money refunded ?

 

Any help would be much appreciated.

Hi theshuffler

My first thoughts.Yes the mortgage payments are a priority.

Is your son getting any help with his mortgage problems.Advice from anywhere.

I doubt you will get money refunded.From the payday loan company.

I know it is to late now but when possible payment problems arise best to cancel the CPA then contact the lender.

Many people it seems are borrowing for mortgage payments,heating,eating.

I dread to know what would happen to many if interest rates went up.

Many people who are working using foodbanks all wages gone on bills,mortgage rent.

Cancel as soon as possible,today if you can the CPA at the bank.

Or have they now taken the full amount owing.

Then he will be back in control and offer what he can afford.

With 3 children is he claiming all possible benefits,Working Tax,Child tax,Council tax etc.

Just in case

'most' banks now are getting very pro-active with refunding the money taken by CPA.

 

New june 2013

 

Regulator orders Banks and mutuals to review complaints about not cancelling recurring payments from November 2009.

Consumers who have set up a regular payment from their account will now be able to successfully cancel that arrangement

by contacting their card provider, the Financial Conduct Authority said.

The FCA has been examining how easy it is for customers to cancel Continuous Payment Authorities (CPAs)

due either to payday lendersicon or for other regular payments such as subscriptions or gymicon memberships.

 

CPAs, which are also commonly called recurring transactions or recurring payments,

are relatively easy to set up but can be hard to cancel, causing problems for consumers trying to manage their finances,the FCA said.

 

Now, following the FCA review of how the largest high street banks and mutuals process requests to cancel CPAs, they have agreed that they will ensure that when a customer asks for a recurring payment to end, that will be sufficient to cancel the arrangement. They have also confirmed that should a payment go through by mistake following cancellation by a customer the customer will be refunded immediately.

 

In addition to securing this commitment, the largest banks and mutuals have agreed to review every individual complaint they have received about the non-cancellation of a CPA and to pay redress where payments have continued to be made despite the customer cancelling the arrangement. This applies to all complaints since November 2009 when the Financial Services Authority, the FCA’s predecessor, began regulating banking conduct.

 

Clive Adamson, the FCA’s director of supervision, said: “It’s important that consumers are confident that banks are meeting their everyday banking needs. Today customers can be confident that when they ask for a Continuous Payment Authority to be cancelled – it will be cancelled - and that it can be done easily.

 

“We recognise that historically this is an area where some customers have struggled but the banks and mutuals have responded positively to our work on this issue. From now on we expect them to be getting this right. In addition, they have committed to review past complaints.”

however this does not resolve the 'debt' to his PDL company.

 

really really silly idea to borrow money from a 2000%+ lender to avoid mortgage issues.

 

however needs must, the tv adverts need to be stopped

as most younger people just don't realise the implications down the line.

 

nuff said.

 

no way you can help him?

 

if you cold kill the PDL now

it will save £100's in the coming months.

 

the implications on his cra file & future borrowing [inc negotiations on mortgage stuff]

 

could be scuppered for 6yrs if they mark his file.

Thanks folks , Yes silly I know , but when your backs to the wall keeping his mortgage payments was his priority .the credit file isnt an issue as he dug a few holes for himself before.

 

I told him to cancel with the bank but he had already cancelled the card thinking they wouldnt be able to take any more , I have told him they still can access his account and they will .

 

 

My main question is Have the loan company been unfair after him telling them he couldnt affored their repayment options ?

 

Did they give him enough time (12 hourss ) to reply to them ?

 

He told them he couldnt afford £178 yet they went ahead and took £250 surely that is unfair ?

Everything in the contract tells him of their intentions , On second day after repayment due they will take interest , then 40% of balance then a further attempt to recover the remaining 60%

Anywhere i can read up on the unfair term bit? Below is the part of the contract Im talking about

 

1. Once we have signed the agreement we will pay the amount of credit into a bank account nominated by you. This agreement will come into force as soon as it

has been signed by the borrower and signed on our behalf.

2. You agree to repay the amount of credit together with the interest and any charges by the repayment shown by no later than 8.00 pm on the date shown.

3. You grant us permission to debit all sums due under this agreement using either a continuous payment authority charged to the debit card to which the authority

relates, by direct debit or by a standing order set up by you at our option. You must ensure that sufficient funds are available to make full repayment on the day the

repayment falls due. You authorise us to attempt to collect full repayment as set out below.

4. On the day the repayment falls due we may make up to 7 attempts to collect the full repayment, as follows:

4.1 we will make an initial attempt to collect the interest due. If that attempt is successful, we will make 2 further attempts, the first to collect 40% of the capital due,

rounded up to the nearest multiple of £10, and the second to collect 60% of the capital outstanding, rounded down the nearest multiple of £10;

4.2 if our initial attempt to collect the interest is unsuccessful, to allow time for your salary to be paid into your account, we will make up to 4 further attempts to

collect the interest due;

4.3 if any of these attempts to collect the interest due is successful, we will then make 2 further attempts, the first to collect 40% of the capital due, rounded up to

the nearest multiple of £10, and the second to collect 60% of the capital outstanding, rounded down the nearest multiple of £10; and

4.4 once we have successfully collected the interest due, but have failed to collect any capital in the two attempts made, we will not make any further attempts on that day

Ok.4, 4.1, 4.2 4.3 4.4 are unfair and some banks even consider them fraudulant transactions and flag them as such.

 

A fair clause would be them debiting the account ONCE that day and DEFINITELY not SEVEN attempts, then sending you notice that payment was not made. Giving you the opportunity to make another payment within the deadline they set.

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..

Dx the bank insist that there was no CPA set up and the money was debited from his card , which has now been cancelled . Anyone else think its strange that they offered him a lolipop in the shape of £40 . Hardly the actions of a company who believe they are right.

if they are saying theres no CPA then if the company did not write to him better that 7 days that it was being taken

then go do a chargeback.

Funds now back in account . Now to negoiate a repayment plan . I raised a complaint with their complaints department , however their reply failed to address any of the questions I raised.
