Hello All,

 

I need some advice on how to proceed. I will seek to outline as much as I can below

 

In July 2008 I fell into financial difficulty when I lost an IT contract and struggled to pay all my bills including my credit card bill with Capital One.

 

 

I thought no big problem here,

 

 

I have PPI and will claim... Big Mistake.

 

 

They didn't pay out as PPI wasn't for people in my situation i.e Self-employed.

 

 

Suffice to say the account went into default in Nov 2008 for £680.

 

 

I commenced my pursuit to get

i.)the default removed

ii.) PPI repaid for mis-selling.

 

Capital One ignored me for years even and sold debt to Lowell in Jan 2011.

I never acknowledged debt with Lowell instead directed them to CO as an account in dispute.

 

 

In 2013 CO admitted misselling and refunded PPI payments to the tune of £340 and promised to notify Lowell accordingly.

 

I didn't hear from Lowell until recently when BW Legal contacted me to say they intended to initiate legal proceedings.

 

 

I have today received a N1CPC claim form from the County Court in Northampton for £384 (Court Fees - £35, Solicitor's cost £50) totalling £469.82.

 

I do not want a CCJ on my file as I'm trying to rebuild my life and I don't believe I BW legal or Lowell are acting within the law.

 

What options are available to me?

 

 

I feel like this is Blackmail just as the account is about to become statute barred.

 

Many Thanks

As per the advice on the link provided I have also drafted a CPR31.14 request.

 

 

I am also responding to the court to defend all of this claim by submission of N9B (CPC) form within the next 24hrours.

 

 

Do I need to take any additional action at this time or wait for responses from BW/Lowell?

Are you sending a section 77/78 request also for the agreement ? Is this a Personal Loan or Credit Card?

 

With regards to acknowledgement I would advocate using MCOL and completing everything on line.

Hi Andy,

 

This is for a credit card. I wasn't initially planning to send a section 77/78 request as I already requested for the agreement within the CPR31.14.

 

 

Have I misunderstood the purpose of both requests?

 

I have registered for MCOL and will be using that.

they can in all effect, asdetailed in several threads here

ignore your CPR

 

 

they however cannot ignore a CCA request

 

 

you must send one

 

 

dx

please don't hit Quote...just type we know what we said earlier..

DCA's view debtors as suckers, marks and mugs

NO DCA has ANY legal powers whatsoever on ANY debt no matter what it's Type

and they

are NOT and can NEVER  be BAILIFFS. even if a debt has been to court..

If everyone stopped blindly paying DCA's Tomorrow, their industry would collapse overnight...

  • 3 weeks later...

I heard back from BW. They have asked their client to provide the requested info in CCA within 12 working days.

 

 

That has now run its course and

 

 

i've not heard anything back from them.

 

 

What is my next course of action?

Responding to your PM

 

There are few points that need clarification first before you can finalise your defence bgizzle ...firstly.....

 

What was the date of your last payment to the account..? you state it was defaulted Nov 2008.

 

The second is with regards to the PPI refund...was the balance reduced by said amount of £340 ? Is the claim amount of £384 correct?

 

Regards

Andy.

 

 

Still haven't received the statutory report as requested

 

 

registered for the Credit Expert online service from experian.

 

 

The Credit Expert service wasn't as good as I expected as there was a lot of stuff missing from my file which were on my equifax and Checkmyfile.

 

 

The CR from experian did however have a Lowell entry which hasn't been updated since May 2013

and which the Experian support centre inform me is due to be removed on 10th Nov 2014.

1 The Claimant's claim was issued on (insert date).

If, which is denied, the claimant contends that the Defendant is in breach of the alleged contract, in excess of 6 years have elapsed since the date on which any cause of action for breach accrued for the benefit of the Claimant.

I have been in contact with Cap 1 who inform me that the default notice was dated 8th October 2008 and default entered on 10th Nov 2008. They also confirmed the last payment they received from myself was on 15th July 2008. I hope this helps?
