    • I posted a couple of years ago about our debt situation and have been trying to pay off our debt as best we can. It is a possibility I maybe made redundant in a few months time, so I am trying to find out everything I can about what happens in today’s world when you can’t pay. I keep finding conflicting advice on various sites so I wanted to post this quote to get thoughts. It claims basically that the dca will likely get enforceable documents these days and therefore it’s likely you will have to pay dca at some point during the 6 year process.    on here I read a lot of comments assuming the exact opposite of this. A lot of the threads on here state the beginning of the process but I never see conclusive stuff about what happened from start to finish to get insight into whether debts post 2015 have been enforced etc. I hear a lot here not to pay dca companies but most my debts are post 2015 debts I am all up to date on our debts but if I lose my job it is likely I’ll end up where I tried to avoid in the first place. Which is destroying our files and dealing with DCA. I’ll post it below so you can see what I mean.   It is likely that any debts incurred after 2007 will end up with all the documentation being provided and being enforceable. Therefore you should use the time while awaiting responses going through your Income & Expenditure and considering any possiblity of making a full and final settlement. It can take a number of months to reach the stage of a hearing date and exchange of witness statements and normally you would be able to settle or come to an arrangement to pay before the court hearing, once documents have been provided, although this isn’t guaranteed.

    • 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.

2008 I suppose.....

 

The finger in the dyke finally gave-way and everything hit the fan.

 

I have no idea what the state of play is at the moment, but there were some big loans which the DCAs are probably still chasing.

 

Iam only now looking at things as next month sees the first "6 year" anniversary with the first problem.

 

I had contact with lenders, DCAs, door-knockers, etc throughout that year before finally dropping off the

 

radar and disappearing to another part of the country.

 

I was fortunate that I had left an old bank account dormant for 20 years & I have been able to continue to use this.

 

Other than that I don't put my name on anything.

 

No idea which claims proceeded past demands or if any made it to CCJ's (which I believe scuppers the 6 year rule?).

 

I would like to move back to my own part of the country but don't know where to start to see if the all-clear will sound next year........

You can check for CCJ's here http://www.trustonline.org.uk/ whilst a CCJ would stop the limitation period, they still only have a certain amount of time in which to enforce the CCJ before they have to go back to court to get permission to enforce it.

 

Have you managed to get any credit since? Mobile phone?

Checking your credit file is also a good start, but be aware when you up date your address then they will also be able to see this.

 

Are they all loans?

With which banks and circa amount?

When did you first take these agreement out?

Who ever heard of someone getting a job at the Jobcentre? The unemployed are sent there as penance for their sins, not to help them find work!

Thanks BB, dx.

 

 

Can't get on to Noddle - not sure if the site is down?

 

 

Not tried to get any credit - phone is PAYG.

 

 

Mostly credit cards & couple of bank loans. Really getting to the point where I can't remember exactly, but cards (3/4) were maxed out up to 10k.

 

 

Maybe 20K on one loan. Cards probably from 2000 & loans from 2002/3.

 

 

I use an address, but it's not "my" address.

OK anything that old can be CCA'd,

is all the credit with the same bank?

 

 

Yes, two bank loans with the same bank. The last one was early 2008. Oh, just remembered there was also £1k due after I returned a vehicle on HP and this was the shortfall which was immediately sold-on to a DCA again early 2008).

 

 

I've had a look at trustonline. Is it safe to give payment details on there?

 

 

(I'm still at the stage where I don't like cars parking outside the house lol).

  • 6 months later...

Back again. Been very busy for the past few months. Just watching the clock ticking down now as things must be hitting the 6 year anniversary almost every week.

 

 

Had a look at the credit report sites but not sure what to put for my addresses for the last 6 years as I haven't had an official address.

It's been either with a mate or house sharing with nothing in my name.

 

 

Also don't want to put my current address down to have the report sent to me here.

 

 

Any way round it without causing other people problems by using their address?

If you can't provide verifiable identification data i.e. previous and current addresses, and

a current debit/credit card registered to your current address not even the free CRA Noddle will provide any service.

Ok, tanks.

 

 

It's really just any CCJs I'm worried about. Is there a central register where I could check for these?

anything on your credit file

like defaults or ccj's

vanishes after 6yrs never to return.

 

 

Hi dx,

 

 

Still trying to get a grip on my own "6 years" timeline.

 

 

How long after initial negotiations for the debt (ie default letter, demands, token payments, etc) have stopped can a creditor apply for a CCJ?

 

 

Then does the 6 years start from the date of the CCJ or the original default?

 

 

Cheers.

SB runs from last payment or signed ack letter by you.

 

 

they have to start a court claim within that period

 

 

If they do the clock stop

 

 

if they get judgement then 6yrs from then or again your last payment if you pay toward a CCJ
