    • There's no facility for a settlement "out of court" as such. But matters that are started under the "Single Justice" (SJ) Procedure can often be concluded without the defendant appearing. The SJ procedure, as the name suggests, involves a single magistrate, sitting in an office with a legal advisor, dealing with matters "on papers" only. Nobody else can attend. The SJ deals with straightforward guilty pleas. Anything where the SJ believes the defendant should appear, or which should be dealt with by the "ordinary" court are adjourned o a hearing in the normal magistrates'  court .As well as this, all defendants have the right to a hearing in the normal court if they wish. Nobody is forced to have their case heard under he SJP.  In particular, as far as traffic matters go, a SJ will not disqualify a driver and if a ban is to be considered, the case will be passed over to the normal court. Because, following your SD, you will be pleading Not Guilty (and offering the "deal"), your case would usually be heard in the normal court, meaning a personal appearance. To be honest, performing your SD at the court is a more straightforward way of doing things. It avoids any possible hitches involved in serving he SD on the court. But of course, as I said, most courts have backlogs which mean an SD may not be quickly accommodated. If you do end up doing your SD before a solicitor, check with them the protocol for serving it on the court. Do let us know what the solicitor says about Wednesday.

    • Quotes of the day penny mordaunt came out swinging with her broadsword, and promptly decapitated sunak while Nigel Farage, representing Reform UK, made contentious claims about immigration policies, which were swiftly fact-checked during the debate.   Good question though raised at labour about the 2 child benefit cap, which I broadly agree with, but the tory 'trap' assumes tory thinking - rather than child centric thinking. There should be no incentives to have kids as a financial way of life paid for by everyone else ... ... BUT the kids should not be made to suffer for the decisions of their parents Free school meals would feed the kids, improve their ability to learn, and incentivise them to go to school. As an added benefit ... it would invest in our nations future.   How far this should go is a matter for costing, social intent and future path of the nation, but not feeding our nations kids is an abomination. There should be at least one free school meal per day for every child who attends school. Full Stop. Its the cheapest and most effective investment in our future we could make.
    • Hey people, I've been browsing this amazing forum for the past year and recieved a letter today which has made me require some help. Received a claim form from Cabot in the Civil National Business Centre in regards to an Aqua Credit Card taken out in 2018. I failed to make payments due to financial hardship and have not taken out any credit or uses any forms of credit since. Received a lot of letters from Cabot and their solicitors Mortimer Clarke which I've ignored    By an agreement between New Day Ltd RE Aqua& the Defendant on or around 26/03/2018 ('ths Agreement) New Day Ltd RE Aqua agreed to issue Defendant with a credit card. The Defendant failed to make the minimum payments due. The Agreement was terminated following the service of a default notice. The Agreement was assigned to the named Claimant. Cabot Credit Management Group Limited, acting as servicing agent of the named Claimant through its Appointed Representative (Cabot Financial (Europe) Limited), has arranged for these proceedings to be issued in the name of the Claimant. The named Claimant may be entitled to claim interest under the Agreement but does not seek such interest and instead claims interest under Section 69(1) of the County Courts Act 1984 at 8% p.a.from03/03/2023 until date of issue only, or alternatively such interest as the Court thinks fit THE NAMED CLAIMANT THEREFORE CLAIMS 1. 3800.82 2. INTEREST OF 379.84 3. Costs How would I go about this and what could happen? I don't remember much details about the card either.
    • cause like you said in post one, 99% of people think these are FINES (it now reads charge). and wet themselves and cough up. they are not, they are speculative invoices because the driver supposedly broke some imaginary contract by driving onto privately owned land which said owner may or may not have signed some 99% fake contract with a private parking co years ago, thats already expired or has not been renewed or annually paid to employ them dx

    • 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.

Good afternoon and, in the event I am advised, thank you :-)

 

I have received a county court claim form.

 

It is addressed to me in my married name, which goes back to 2007/2008

(I have used my maiden name since I left my husband in late 2007)

and it has been addressed to me at my current address.

 

The debt is £299, in addition there is a £25 court fee plus solicitors costs of £50. Total: £374

 

I have no idea what it is for or when it is from. The claimant and solicitors respectively:

 

 

  • Arrow Global Guernsey Ltd, London
  • Drydensfairfax Solicitors (Drydens Ltd), Bradford

Particulars of the claim:

1. The claim is for the sum of 299.00 in respect of monies owing by the defendant on a credit agreement held by the defendant with Phoenix Recoveries (uk)

under an account number upon which the defendant failed to maintain payments.

 

2. A default notice was served upon the defendant and has not been complied with

 

3. By virtue of a sale agreement between Phoenix Recoveries (UK) and the claimant who has a genuine commercial interest.

 

The defendant has been notified of the assignment by letter.

 

Re: 1. I do not know who Phoenix Recoveries (UK) are.

Or any of the other entities on the claim form.

I do not know what the account is or where the debt was accrued.

 

2. I am unaware of a default notice

3. I do not know what the sale agreement is, regardless of what Phoenix Recoveries have stated.

 

If anyone can assist me with regard to how I deal with this.

 

I genuinely am clueless.

 

I had a traumatic couple of years up to 2009 and I really cannot place the debt.

 

I know when I left my husband he ignored all household bills ( all were in my name) until at least the start of 2009

and claimed that I lived in our home right up until that point (I left on December 26th 2007),

so perhaps it is something related to that?

 

For the record I paid all bills in the marital home up until August 2008,

despite the fact I was living elsewhere.

 

 

Again, thank you.

Can you please let us know what the date of issue is - you will find this at the top right hand corner of the claim form :)

 

Arrow Global are a Debt Purchaser - as for Phoenix, it would appear that they had originally purchased a debt from a creditor and they have then sold it on to Arrow. What you need to establish is, who was the company that Phoenix purchased the debt from originally ?

 

Anyway, you need to send a CPR 31.14 request, which is a request for copies of documents, to the solicitor named on the claim form. I have linked you to the draft below.

 

You can only request copies of documents mentioned on the claim form, which are..

 

1: The agreement

2: The Default Notice

3: The Notice of Assignment

4: Statement of account, to show how the £sum claimed has accrued.

 

So read the draft carefully and amend where indicated.

 

You should send it as soon as possible and by at the very least, recorded delivery. If you can afford Special Delivery, then use that service.

 

http://www.consumeractiongroup.co.uk/forum/showthread.php?387484-LEGAL-CPR-31.14-Request-Request-for-information-when-a-Claim-has-been-issued.

 

You then need to send a CCA request, not sure if that should go to Arrow Global or the solicitor = will check that for you. You need to include a £1.00 with this request - it is a request for a copy of the agreement on which they are basing their claim. You need to send this, even though you have made a request for a copy of it within the CPR request.

this should be interesting

 

as phoenix is owned by the terresa group both in Luxembourg I think it is [s.a.r.l]

 

years ago they brought a whole portfolio of dodgy shop direct

and

dodgy HSBC debts

 

don't think in all the threads here

that phoenix has ever come up with paperwork for any debt

they claim someone owes

 

which is why they sell them on.

to buyer like AG.

Just to confirm, the CCA request needs to go to the Solicitor as well as the CPR request.

 

As dx has advised, it looks as though there is a previous owner.. the original creditor, prior to Phoenix, so it looks as though they might not be able to prove this debt with an agreement.

 

Your timeline is as follows...

 

Issue date 16.06.2014 + 5 days for service = 20.06.2014 + 14 days to acknowledge the claim = 04.07.2014 + 14 days to submit a defence = 18.07.2014.

 

You MUST acknowledge the claim online by the 4 July, very important you do that or they will obtain a judgment by default. Send off the CCA and CPR request as soon as you can. Give them about 10 days to respond, let us know if they do or dont, we can take things from there.

Morning

 

I have signed up with Noodle. Whilst I don't have a high credit score (I don't have any loans or mortgage or credit cards etc) nothing appears in the last six years. Could it be a bill? I absolutely do know that my ex husband did not pay any bills until early 2009. Anyway. I have downloaded and changed the document accordingly and will send it special delivery asap.

 

I will return. It's all quite confusing.

If there is nothing on your credit file, it is possible that this debt could be older than 6 years. I have drafted a further letter for you to send to the solicitor - below. This request is purely for information, if we can establish when monies were last paid or liability acknowledged, it is possible we could find this debt is statute barred.. fingers crossed. This doesnt mean that the debt is extinguished, just that after 6 years of non payment or acknowledgement of liability - the claimant is unable to bring an action in court to collect.

 

You will need to reconvert the document back to word and fill in the blanks where necessary. Again, this goes to the solicitor named on the claim form.

Bloody hell you are awesome, big huge thank you!

 

For the record I am ok to agree a payment with *whomever* providing I am presented with whatever proof is required that demonstrates I do indeed owe something to someone. I really wasn't having a good time back then so I am a bit confused as to what it is. Or isn't.

I have heard nothing from the claimants.

 

I failed to acknowledge the claim by the 4th.

 

I'd got the damn 14th July in my head.

 

I guess it is now over, judgement will have occurred.

 

I still have no idea what it is for -

though my bank manager friend said it will be water rates but I don't owe the water board a penny.

 

How do I proceed from here.

 

Again advice greatly appreciated.

I have called the County Court.

 

They have informed me that I can still acknowledge the claim four days late.

 

I was asked if I wanted to defend or not.

 

I explained that I can't say as I have no idea what the claim is for.

 

She advised me just to call them and ask 'it is that simple, why not just call then',

 

I explained that I had been advised not to do so and to document correspondence etc.

 

She simply gave the the number of the claimants and said 'call them and ask'.

Mildly confusing.

Ok well I caved in and called the claimants.

 

They won't tell me however it was passed to the legal team who have said that yes,

they have received my CPS but haven't sorted out the info in order to send it to me.

 

So - I have 30 days from the date of judgement to pay £396 otherwise the judgement will stand.

 

I have explained my perspective to the claimants and that I need to know what the hell it is for.

 

Is there some kind of protocol for this.

 

And thank you once again.
