    • Your point 4 deals with that and puts them to strict proof .....but realistically they are not in a position to state that within their particulars they were not the creditor at the time of default but naturally assume the OC would have...so always worth challenging and if you get a DJ who knows his onions on the day may ask for further evidence from the OC internal accounts system. 
    • I see, shame, I think if a claim is 'someone was served' then proof of that should be mandatory. Appreciate your input into the WS whenever you get chance, thanks in advance
    • Paper trail off the original creditor often confirms the default and issue of a notice...not having or being able to disclose the actual copy or being able to produce a copy less so. Creditors are not compelled to keep copies of the actual default notice so you will in most cases get a reconstituted version but must contain accurate figures/dates/format.     .    
    • Including Default Notice Andy? Ok, I think this is the best I can do.. it all makes sense with references to their WS. They have included exhibits that dates don't match the WS about them, small but still.. if you're going to reference letters giving dates, then the exhibits should be correct, no? I know I redacted them too much, but one of the dates differs to the WS by a few months. IN THE ******** County Court Claim No. [***] BETWEEN: LC Asset 2 S.A.R.L CLAIMANT AND [***] DEFENDANT ************ _________________________ ________ WITNESS STATEMENT OF [***] _________________________ ________ I, [***], being the Defendant in this case will state as follows; I make this Witness Statement in support of my defence in this claim. 1. I understand that the claimant is an Assignee, a buyer of defunct or bad debts, which are bought on mass portfolios at a much-reduced cost to the amount claimed and which the original creditors have already written off as a capital loss and claimed against taxable income as confirmed in the claimant’s witness statement exhibit by way of the Deed of Assignment. As an assignee or creditor as defined in section 189 of the CCA this applies to this new requirement on assignment of rights. This means that when an assignee purchases debts (or otherwise acquires rights under a credit agreement) it also acquires certain obligations to the borrower including the duty to comply with CCA requirements (such as the rules on statements and notices and other post-contractual information). The assignee becomes the creditor under the agreement. This ensures that essential consumer protections under the CCA cannot be circumvented by assigning the debt to a third party. 2. The Claim relates to an alleged Credit Card agreement between the Defendant and Bank of Scotland plc. Save insofar of any admittance it is accepted that the Defendant has had contractual agreements with Bank of Scotland plc in the past, the Defendant is unaware as to what alleged debt the Claimant refers. 3. The Defendant requested a copy of the CCA on the 24/12/2022 along with the standard fee of £1.00 postal order, to which the defendant received a reply from the Claimant dated 06/02/2023. To this date, the Claimant has failed to disclose a valid agreement and proof as per their claim that this is enforceable, that Default Notice and Notice of Assignment were sent to and received by the Defendant, on which their claim relies. The Claimant is put to strict proof to verify and confirm that the exhibit *** is a true copy of the agreement and are the true Terms and Conditions as issued at the time of inception of the online application and execution of the agreement. 4. Point 3 is noted. The Claimant pleads that a default notice has been served upon the defendant as evidenced by Exhibit [***]. The claimant is put to strict proof to verify the service of the above in accordance with s136 and s196 Law of Property Act 1925. 5. Point 6 is noted and disputed. The Defendant cannot recall ever having received the notice of assignment as evidenced in the exhibit marked ***. The claimant is put to strict proof to verify the service of the above in accordance with s136 and s196 Law of Property Act 1925. 6. Point 11 is noted and disputed. See 3. 7. Point 12 is noted, the Defendant doesn’t recall receiving contact where documentation is provided as per the Claimants obligations under CCA. In addition, the Claimant pleads letters were sent on dates given, yet those are not the letters evidenced in their exhibits *** 8. Point 13 is noted and denied. Claimant is put to strict proof to prove allegations. 9. The Claimant did not provide a true copy of the CCA in response to the Defendants request of 24/12/2022. The Claimant further claims that the documents are sufficient to pursue a Judgement and are therefore copies of original documents in their possession. Conclusion 10. Without the Claimant providing a valid true copy of the executed Credit agreement that complies with the CCA, the Claimant has no grounds on which to enforce this alleged debt. 11. The Defendant was not given ample evidence to prove the debt and therefore was not required to enter settlement negotiations. Should the debt be proved in the future, the Defendant is willing to enter such negotiations with the Claimant. On receipt of this claim I could not recall the precise details of the agreement or any debt and sought clarity from the claimant by way of a Section 78 request. The Claimant failed to comply. I can only assume as this was due to the Claimant not having any enforceable documentation and issuing a claim in hope of an undefended default judgment.   Statement of Truth I, ********, the Defendant, believe the facts stated within this Witness Statement to be true. I understand that proceedings for contempt of court may be brought against anyone who makes, or causes to be made, a false statement in a document verified by a statement of truth without an honest belief in it’s truth.

    • 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.

Hi everyone, looking for some help on where to go now!

 

My car was lifted by a logbook loan company today (Loans 2 go)

apparently the previous owner took out a log book loan on the vehicle in March 2013.

 

 

I bought the vehicle in May 2013 and had no correspondance sent from Loans 2 go to inform me that there was any outstanding finance on the vehicle.

The guy who was loading my car onto his truck was the first I knew about it.

 

I have spoken with Loans to go

they say there is a £3000 loan outstanding (original loan was £650)

and that I need to pay that to get the vehicle back.

 

 

However the guy that sold it to me had the logbook (must of applied for a duplicate as L2G have a log book in their possession)

and the check I did on my phone never flagged anything up as outstanding

(I have since learnt these checks do not include finance information).

 

 

I bought this car in good faith it was clean, he had a log book and all the numbers matched etc.

 

What can I do

who can I speak to to deal with this for me

anything I say to them falls on deaf ears.

 

 

We cannot afford a solicitor to deal with this

 

 

I also want to send them copies of the receipts for the parts we bought for the vehicle which we want back as legally I own them!!

 

Anyone know what I can do???

Hi Neil and welcome to CAG

 

sadly this is becoming a common problem,

 

and there is not too much you can do

If a car is subject to a logbook loan, the loan company is the legal owner of the car until the loan is paid off in full.

 

If you buy a car that has a logbook loan on it and the person you bought the car from stops paying the money back,

 

the finance company can repossess the car and keep it until the debt is paid in full.

 

This applies even if you bought the car in good faith and did not know it had a logbook loan. The loan company does not need a court order to repossess the car

 

if you want the car back

 

 

you can negotiate with the lbl co to settle the outstanding loan, and then claim against the vendor

 

if you just want your money back, your claim would be against the vendor

 

did you ask to see the bill of sale when tha car was being taken?

Hi Oldrouge.

 

Yes the guy that took the car gave me a copy of the bill of sale and the vehicle repossession authorisation form.

 

 

I also have receipt that he has taken the car, but refused to sign it!

Hi renegadimp.

 

Yes it seems to have been done all legit.

 

 

They have the log book,

they did an address check to make sure he was a resident of where he said he was

(he has since left so they can't find him)

 

 

and have copies of his bank statements to prove he had income

and could "afford" the repayments.

 

 

I can't find anything that could null the agreement!

if the bos was correctly registered

 

then your only options are as above I,m afraid

 

try to negotiate with the lbl co

 

and then try and find the vendor

 

check to see whether the lbl co are members of the CCTA

 

here is their code of practice

Thanks for thr replies Rouge

 

 

already checked that and they are a member of the CCTA.

 

 

The vendor seems to have vanished from the face of the Earth

 

 

the Loan Company have been trying to find him for 18 months!

 

 

He doesn't live at the address he was at any more and

 

 

his phone numbers are now dead.

 

 

He has probably gone back to whatever country it was that he originally came from!

I have been doing some digging into this in my spare time.

 

 

I believe their is a loop hole that the Bill of sale has to be registered in the high court within 7 days on signing to be effectual in law.

 

 

Without them registering within 7 days they are stuffed.

 

 

You will need to check with the high court to check the date the Bill of Sale was registered against the date on the finance agreement

do try and negotiate with the lbl co

 

they are only interim authorised by the FCA at the moment, and are under severe scrutiny

 

and must apply for full auth early next year

 

so they will want to be seen as whiter than white at the moment

I will mate. Anyone know if I can ask for the parts we bought for the vehicle back if we have receipts to prove we bought them? We had to buy an injector, altenator, startermotor and a wing mirror for the vehicle while we owned it!

have you checked the witness to the bill of sale was NOT an employee

 

 

it must be an independent person.

It was an employee it was their cashier.

 

 

But again its another myth an employee can sign as witness.

 

 

Infact there was a case in 2011 where Loans 2 go got taken to court for the same thing by the office of fair trading. See Below...

 

This subject of witnessing deeds was recently addressed within the context of bills of sale

by the Upper Tribunal (Administrative Appeals Chamber) in the case of Log Book Loans Ltd v Office of Fair Trading [2011] UKUT 280 (AAC)(1).

 

 

Specifically, the Upper Tribunal needed to decide whether a bill of sale was rendered void under the Bill of Sales Act 1878

and the Bill of Sales (1878) Amendment Act 1882 (the "Bills of Sale Acts")

in circumstances where the execution by the grantor of the bill of sale was attested by an employee of the grantee,

where the employee had negotiated, agreed and signed on behalf of the grantee (i.e. the lender)

the credit agreement between the grantor (i.e. the borrower) and the grantee.

 

 

Conclusion - The Upper Tribunal concluded (by a majority) that it is possible that an employee of a person

benefiting from the grant of a bill of sale could attest a signature.

Tell me about it mate. I have had lots burst today!!

For your info from the FCA

What we will do next

Given the evidence, this is a priority area to address.

 

As a small market with a few dominant players, we believe it is important that logbook lenders are quickly assessed, which is why we are requiring them to apply for full authorisation from 1 January 2015.

 

Logbook lenders that wish to continue providing logbook loans need to demonstrate how they meet our threshold conditions. These include conditions on suitability (including that a firm’s affairs are conducted in an appropriate manner regarding the interests of consumers) and on business models (including that the firm’s strategy for doing business is suitable for its regulated activities and that its business model is not exploitative of customers).

 

Firms that fail to meet our threshold conditions will be unable to satisfy the necessary authorisation standards and will not be allowed to continue trading in the market.

 

We will also respond to issues through our supervision and enforcement to ensure standards are maintained in the market.

 

We will take action where we find evidence of actual or potential consumer harm caused by firms not complying with legal requirements, our Principles for Businesses, or the conduct of business rules in our Consumer Credit sourcebook (CONC).

As the car was sold knowing there was finance on it then that makes it theft, have your reported it to the police? If not, do so and get a crime number.

 

 

You have his name and the fact he has disappeared makes no difference, it will go onto the police computer so should his name need checking at some time in the future, even just a traffic check, this theft will come up.
