I'd let things run

 

 

you have the ace now

 

 

don't play that card or write to anyone outside of hearing carters next move FROM THE COURT THEMSELVES.

 

 

you claim for damages to the CRA file will most prob be against Shop Direct

and is un related to carters speculative claim I suspect.

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...

We have received the DQ today. It has to be returned to the court and BC/Lowell by 15 January.

 

Should I tick no to mediation and state my reason as being, I would be unable to make any agreement with the claimant as the account was statute barred before they issued the proceedings.

Just had a call about booking an appointment for mediation.

When asked if we would be willing to negotiate a payment plan via mediation we said no.

They asked why not and we informed them that we would not be able to agree to any payment on the account

when we have the mediation appt, as Lowell are in default of a CCA request,

and because a SARN to the original creditor has provided us with paperwork

proving the account was statute barred before court proceedings were issued.

 

They then decided that mediation was pointless in this case

and said they would inform the court of this,

and inform the court that the debt is statute barred.

 

They also said I should inform the claimant that the account was statute barred before they issued the claim, as this may end the matter.

 

 

So do you agree it is now time to let Lowells / Carter know?

or wait for a hearing date from the court and submit the evidence with the witness statement?

I personally would just adapt and introduce it as part of your witness statement ...to change a defence you must make application and seek the courts/claimants approval...and there is the fee.

Thank you Andy, I will now just wait to hear from the court.

 

I just hope the judge does not get annoyed by the failure to let the claimant know about the statute barred status. Do not want to get a rollicking for wasting the courts time, when notifying the claimant may have stopped the court proceedings.

If you only became aware of it after you submitted your defence and introduced it within your WS...cant see why the court should be vexed.

They will be more vexed at the claimant bringing a claim on a statute barred debt.

Went to court this morning.

 

The Judge was not impressed with Lowell.

 

 

Said they failed to provide evidence of assignment of the debt,

told them their CCA response did not comply with the CCA 1974

and their "agreement" failed to contain all the terms and conditions at the time the account was taken out.

He said the agreement had been varied and as such they should have provided the original agreement.

 

 

Lowell flatly refused to disclose whether this signed agreement they produced was a true copy or a reconstituted copy.

To which they were informed they were in breach of CONC guidelines in relation to misleading creditors,

as the Judge's belief was that the agreement was reconstituted.

 

 

The Judge was concerned that the "signed agreement" was fraudulent as he was happy that it was not my sons signature

based on official documents containing his real signature that we produced in court.

He also agreed it was most likely statute barred too.

 

The case was dismissed,

we were awarded costs,

and told we should take the matter of the fraudulent signature, and breach of CONC guidelines to the appropriate bodies for Lowell's / Carter to be dealt with.
