    • This is the other sign  parking sign 1a.pdf
    • 4 means that they need to name and then tell the people who will be affected that there has been an application made, what the application relates to (specificially "whether it relates to the exercise of the court’s jurisdiction in relation to P’s property and affairs, or P’s personal welfare, or to both) and what this application contains (i.e what order they want made as a result of it) 5 just means that teh court think it is important that the relevant people are notified 7 means that the court need more information to make the application, hence they have then made the order of paragraph 1 which requires the applicant to do more - this means the court can't make a decision with the current information, and need more, hence paragraph one of the order is for the applicant to do more. paragraph 3 of the order gives you the ability to have it set aside, although if it was made in january you are very late. Were you notiifed of the application or not?    
    • These are the photos of the signs. At the entrance there is a 7h free sign. On some bays there is a permit sign.  Also their official website is misleading as it implies all parking is free.  I can't be certain of the exact parking bay I was in that day, and there was no PCN ticket on my car and no other evidence was provided.  parking sign 2.pdf
    • Hi, In my last post I mentioned I had received an email from SS who were asking me to hand over the keys to my mother’s flat so they could pass them to the Law firm who have been appointed court of protection to access, secure and insure my mother’s property.  Feeling this, all quickly getting out of my hands I emailed ss requesting proof of this. I HAVEN’T HEARD BACK FROM SS.  Yesterday, I received an email (with attached court of protection order) from the Law Firm confirming this was correct (please see below a copy of this).  After reading the court of protection order I do have some concerns about it:   (a)   I only found out yesterday, the Law firm had been appointed by the court back in January.  Up until now, I have not received any notification regarding this.  (b)   Section 2   - States I am estranged from my mother.  This is NOT CORRECT    The only reason I stepped back from my mother was to protect myself from the guy (groomer) who had befriended her & was very aggressive towards me & because of my mother’s dementia she had become aggressive also.  I constantly tried to warned SS about this guy's manipulative behaviour towards my mother and his increasing aggressiveness towards me (as mentioned in previous posts).  Each time I was ignored.  Instead, SS encouraged his involvement with my mother – including him in her care plans and mental health assessments.   I was literally pushed out because I feared him and my mother’s increasing aggression towards me. Up until I stepped back, I had always looked after my mother and since her admission to the care home, I visit regularly.   .(c)    Sections -  4, 5 and 7  I am struggling to understand these as I don’t have a legal background.  I was wondering if there is anyone who might be able to explain what they mean.  It’s been a horrendous situation where I had to walk away from my mother at her most vulnerable because of; ss (not helping), scammer and groomer. I have no legal background, nor experience in highly manipulative people or an understanding of how the SS system operates, finding myself isolated, scared and powerless to the point I haven’t collected my personal belongings and items for my mother’s room in the care home.  Sadly, the court has only had heard one version of this story SS’s, and based their decision on that. My mother’s situation and the experience I have gone through could happen to anyone who has a vulnerable parent.    If anyone any thoughts on this much appreciated.  Thank you. ______________________________________________________  (Below is the Court of Protection Order)  COURT OF PROTECTION                                                                                                                                                                                   No xxx  MENTAL CAPACITY ACT 2005 In the matter of Name xxx ORDER Made by  Depty District Judge At xxx Made on xxx Issued on 18 January 2024  WHEREAS  1.     xxx Solicitors, Address xxx  ("Applicant”) has applied for an order under the Mental Capacity Act 2005.  2.     The Court notes (my mother) is said to be estranged from all her three children and only one, (me) has been notified.  3.     (Me) was previously appointed as Atorney for Property and Affairs for (my mother).  The Exhibity NAJ at (date) refers to (me) and all replacement Attorneys are now officially standing down.  4.     Pursuant to Rule 9.10 of the Court of Protection Rules 2017 and Practice Direction 9B the Applicant 2must seek to identify at least three persons who are likely to have an interest in being notified that an application has been issues.”  The children of (my mother), and any other appointed attorneys are likely to have an interest in the application, because of the nature of relationship to (my mother).  5.     The Court considers that the notification requirements are an important safeguard for the person in respect of whom an order is sought.  6.     The Court notes that it is said that the local authority no longer has access to (my mother’s) Property.  7.     Further information is required for the Court to determine the application.  IT IS ORDERED THAT  Within 28 days of the issue date this order, the Applicant shall file a form COP24 witness statement confirming that the other children of (my mother) and any replacement attorneys have been notified of the application and shall confirm their name, address, and date upon which those persons were notified.  If the Applicant wishes the Court to dispense with any further notification, they should file a COP9 and COP24 explaining, what steps (if any) have been taken to attempt notification and why notification should be dispensed with.   Pending the determination of the application to appoint a deputy for (my mother), the Applicant is authorised to take such steps as are proportionate and necessary to access, secure and insure the house and property of (my mother).   This order was made without a hearing and without notice.  Any person affected by this order may apply within 21 days of the date on which the order was served to have the order set aside or varied pursuant to Rule 13.4 of the Court of Protection Rules 2017 (“the Rules”).  Such application must be made on Form COP9 and in accordance with Part 10 Rules.              
    • Unless I've got an incorrect copy of the relevant regulation: The PCN is only deemed to have arrived two days after dispatch "unless the contrary is proved" in which case date of delivery does matter (not just date of posting) and I would like clarification of the required standard of proof. It seems perhaps this hasn't been tested. Since post is now barcoded for the Post Office's own tracking purposes perhaps there is some way I can get that evidence from the Post Office...

    • 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.

I have just received a court claim form from MBNA credit card sold to Arrow Global who passed to Restons Solicitors.

 

The particulars of claim are:

 

The Claimant claims payment of the overdue balance due from the Defendant under a contract between the Defendant and MBNA dated on 17/06/2004 and assigned to the Claimant on 20/12/2011 in the sum of £4,768.10 plus costs of £165 = new total of £4933.10

 

I cant work and cant pay as a single disabled mother. Can anyone please tell me how to go about defending the reply to the court and what action I must take??

 

I was making a monthly payment of £25 but just cant do it any more, last payment was in 2013.

 

Thank You.

hi

is there any more to their particulars?

edit to round off the amounts.

stick to court deadlines. if you are defending acknowledge service with intention to defend in time.

if defending;

could consider doing an initial request for the docs that they rely on. see the sticky thread.

did you get a default notice (if applicable)? notice of assignment?

any poss missold ppi?

have you previously done a cca request?

Link to post
Share on other sites

Can you let us know the date of issue please ? You will find this at the top right hand corner of the claim form.

 

If you are going to enter a defence then your timeline will be...

 

Date of issue - Plus 5 days for service = XX/XX/XX - Plus 14 days to acknowledge the claim = XX/XX/XXX - Plus 14 days to submit a defence = XX/XX/XX

 

On what basis would you be defending the claim ?

 

If you have not made a CCA request previously, then you should do that now. There is a draft letter in the CAG library, highlighted in green at top left hand corner of the screen. You will need to enclose £1.00 for the statutory fee. This needs to go, I think to Arrow Global.

 

Their Particulars of claim are really quite vague if what you have typed above is all they have put on the form !

 

Did you receive from MBNA, a default notice and termination notice.

 

It would appear you must have received the Notice of Assignment as you didnt cease payments until 2013 which was 2 years after Arrow Global took possession.

 

Did you communicate your financial difficulties in making the repayments to AG ?

yours is likely small claims, so bear that in mind.

 

if no compliant default notice (if applicable) then there should be no enforcement. one poss ground re defence. in your defence get them to prove that one was sent, and if deemed so that it was a compliant one.

check whether have done a cca request as if no compliance on that then there should be no court enforcement. otherwise, for a quid, could send another one. as is a new owner maybe an idea to send one anyway to the current claimant. should get a statement of account with that, so could ask with request for a breakdown of their claim?

when was the original date of the mbna cred card in issue?

a written notice of assignment (sale of the matter to someone else) is required.

have you previously done a sar on this? if so, could do one to the original creditor, mbna? 40 days for them to comply though.

XXXXXX[Z1]

 

MY DETAILS

 

30 July 2014

 

Arrow Globaland CASE NUMBER XXXXXXXXXX

PO Box 5469County Court at XXXXXXXXXXX

ManchesterXXXXXXXXXX Justice Centre

M61 0LW

 

FAO: XXXXXXXXXXX

 

Dear Sirs/Madam

 

Your ref: XXXXXXXXXXXXXand XXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

 

I refer to the Claimants letter dated 27-07-14 which I have only just received on 30-07-14 and the enclosed Witness Statements of ……………………..I apologise if I make any errors but this is created in a rush.

 

I make the following comments on the above:

 

Para 3

The term “true copy of the agreement terms and conditions” cannot be true.The original should have been copied which has not happened..I have never seen the enclosed terms and conditions which are supplied and there is nothing on them to say that they belong to the relevant account.

 

The signature form on 2nd page of Exhibit 1 is unreadable and the date is not clear when it was signed (Ref.: LA-04-04-6144-AB and 31YF7HQ4/AAHE/GB/1CK/2/15.9%).The 3rd page of Exhibit 1 (which I assume is supposed to be the back of the form) contains a complete different reference number

 

The other Signature Form provided on the third page is not signed and contains a completely different reference number.

 

The marker pen which has been put on both barcodes of the above show two different styles, obviously these are not the same documents as otherwise the marker pen would be the same.

 

I have never received any terms and conditions on an A4 sheet, any terms and conditionsthat existed in 2004 were always in tiny print and in columns.There is no reference on the Terms and Conditions to show that they belonged to me or that I agreed with them.Again these are general ones the Claimant must use for anybody.

 

Page 2 of 4

 

XXXXXXXXXXX

 

Para 8

Restons were sent a copy of a Court Order dated in February 2012 which freezes all my assets and income/expenditures that I may have has to be declared to the CPS until POCA proceedings are completed (may take up to 5 years).I was not able to pay anymore as firstly it was my husbands debt not mine and secondly my solicitor said I had to show my creditors the court order.All legal firms were sent the Court Order and then returned the case to whoever had it at the time.Arrow are just trying to hide the fact I have provided them with the Court Order via Reestons which was the reason the claim was returned to them.

 

Para 9

I am disabled and have some mental issues.After my husbands arrest I did not realise that money was still being taken from my account for his debt as he used to give me cash for it every month.

 

Para 10

I had no-one in my house for many months.All I can say is that I can find no record of the transfer of the debt that I acknowledge.See para. 9 comments above regarding payments.

 

Para 11

The reality was these payments were stopped when I had no money for food and had to get a friend to check through my bank statements and see where my money was going.

 

Fredricksons were completely informed of all details why payments had stopped and details of the court order freezing all my assets and finances.This was the reason why the file was transferred to another company.Obviously debt companies were not passing on the full information to the debt purchasing firms as no-one would be interested in buying it.

 

Para 12

The balance shown on first transfer of the debt may have been £5,453.10 but this also consists of high interest charges and bounced payment charges which we much higher than what should have been applied.No-one has provided a statement showing how the £5,453.10 has been built-up.I do not have any paperwork showing the debt myself.

 

Last 6 Pages Exhibit One

I am amazed that the Claimant has falsely used the Credit Card Agreement from another credit card I obtained at a much later date. This is very easily to prove due to:

 

The original agreement was in my maiden name – this is in my married name

 

  1. These contain my address from 2007 onward, in 2004 when the card was issued I was at a completely different address which is shown at the beginning of Exhibit One.


  2. The interest rate on the original Signature Form just about shows 15.9%, the latest interest rate on the last pages quotes 28-29% obviously from a much later date than 2004.


    These also contain no signature or reference number relating to me
     
    Page 1 of Exhibit 2
    3rd line from bottom – entry reads S78 sent to Recon as credit agreement illegible Copy T&C sent - I believe this confirms that the Claimant themselves have “reconstructed” the terms and conditions of any agreement that may have been in place. It is well known that this is a practice that often takes place but is not actually the real agreement that was signed.
     
     
    Page 3 of 4
    xxxxxxxxxxxx
     
    Page 4 of Exhibit 2
    Although I don’t clearly understand all the computer print-out it seems to relate to two different card number xxxxxxxxxxx92 and xxxxxxxxxx94 without any reason why. I don’t understand this and why no explainations has been given.
     
    Also there appears the number xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx07 is also shown without any explanation.
     
    Page marked “16” of Exhibit 2
    7th line – right hand side. This shows that the details of my husband were added to the account. I don’t know why they are there or what it means?
     
    I cannot understand what most of this print-out is supposed to mean as you would need company training to understand it.
     
    Page marked “18” of Exhibit 2
    The dates on this computer print-out seem to be all over the place and it makes its impossible to follow.
     
    Exhibit 3 – Notice of Assignment
    I have not seen this before and was not living at the address quoted at that time.
     
    Exhibit 4
    I don’t understand this – it says £25 was paid by direct debit but minimum payment was supposed to be £1,074.10
     
    Exhibit 5
    This shows a different form of payments made. Since the account has had problems for some time I am surprised to see that on
     
    24-06-13 Balance 4768.10
    21-01-14 4848.10 – Court Issue – Reestons 21-01-14
    23-01-14 4933.10 – Issue Fees – Reestons 23-01-14
     
    As Reestons were again advised of the Freezing Order they cancelled all action and returned the file. Why am I then being charged their fees especially without any proof of expenditure?
     
    Page 2 of Exhibit 1, Paragraph 6.
    This shows an amount being claimed by the claimant as £5,338.10. This amount does not equate to any amount shown on this page.
     
    Also the Claimant states the last payment was made in 2011 yet this sheet says that the last payment was made in 2013.


Page 3 of 4

 

I am sure the court staff will have much more intelligence than me but I still cannot understand how all of this has been put together and why so much of the information is conflicting.

 

In brief, my finances and assets are all under a restraint order which has already been provided to the court and Claimant.If you need another copy please let me know.

 

I am also disabled and a single mother with a 8 year old daughter.

 

I therefore ask the Court not to make a judgement in favour of the Claimant as

 

1) there has been too much documentation provided that just does not make sense;

 

2) no genuine copy of the signature or terms and conditions has been provided;

 

3) even if the court disagrees then the Restrain Order does not allow for any debts to be paid.

 

I am sorry this is so long but it is difficult for me to explain everything as I get so confused and all this paperwork makes it all so complicated for me.

 

I would also ask that the court request the Claimant to clear my credit record should it decide in my favour.

 

Should the court not decide in my favour than I request time to speak to my solicitor to see what sort of payment plan can be put in place if needed.There is absolutely no way that I can get hold of this kind of money under a Restraint Order.

 

Thank you for your assistance

 

Yours sincerely

 

xxxxxxxxxxxxx

truthfully just a few chasing letter and legal companies just passing the file from one to another, I was getting letters from 3 of them at one time and couldn't cope with it so I just ignored it until sent a court claim. This was then returned to the company when they knew about the restraint order and now the company is trying to get the court to issue a CCJ.

I just said I was unable to pay due to the Restrain Order.

I have not provided them with any documents as MBNA didn't provide me with a copy of their papers until last week upon which I sent the letter that I have posted.

Strangely MBNA still kept collecting the direct debit payments for the debt AFTER they had sold it on.

 

 

My defence was that I had not received copies of the agreement when taking the card out, no breakdown of how they got that total and I had

also not received their notices of assignments and that the debt was actually my husbands and he is listed on their computer files on the card.

There are no witness statements on either side apart from a person from Reestons who just used so called file info.

Hi Googley

 

It is vitally important for anyone to offer you help that you do as asked and not summarise. I appreciate it is quicker to summarise but all the information is crucial.

 

Have a look at Andyorch post #11 and give him the information as full and concise as possible:-

 

Defense submitted by you (written word for word)

 

Did the claimant respond

 

What was filled in on the Directions Questionnaire

 

What did the Notice of Allocations state

 

What does the claimants Witness Statement say

 

Thanks
