    • 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. Signed: _________________________ _______ Dated: _____________________

    • 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.

Yes dx, I sent my DQ back.

 

I realise that they my defence and the contents of their letter are 2 different things but they state that in their letter that they cant enforce it so surely that means they cant try and get a judgement against me or am I going screwy in the head?

no the letter says they can enforce the 'debt' under section 78

 

 

that is a totally different issue from being able to enforce a court judgement.

 

 

ok, ofcourse, they cant, as they need an enforceable agreement to get a judgement.

 

 

might sound silly, but

 

 

cabot have simply replied to your section 78 request

in the manner that they must under the FCA rules they are governed by...

 

 

 

 

I very much doubt the CCa dept shall we say

has any knowledge whatsoever about the on going claim.

This is the letter I received from Cabots in February:

 

"Your request for information under the Consumer Credit Act

 

Unfortunately cabot has not been able to provide you with the requested information within the relevant time period.

 

What happens next?

 

We shall continue to request the information from the original lender to assist you with your request. In the meantime, we would like to inform you that your account shall remain on hold with the Customer Care Dept until such time we can comply with your request.

 

Your account

 

Your credit agreement is currently unenforceable, which means we are not permitted to obtain a judgement or decree against you in court. However, you are still obliged to repay the outstanding balance as confirmed in this letter and therefore we would recommend you to contactus as soon as possible to set up a repayment arrangement or continue with your existing payment plan."

 

So you see, they clearly state that they cannot obtain a judgement against me, so why the hell are the solicitors still pursuing it??????

 

Maybe someone could advise me what to do next. I have ticked mediation, as have they. Should I write to the solicitors enclosing a copy of Cabot's letter and ask them what they are playing at, or should I still keep quiet and wait for a court date?

 

This seems to be becoming a bit of a farce.

well they don't want to lose face

 

 

they issued a speculative claim

hoping for a non contested default judgement

as they and other DCA's do 1000's of times a week

 

 

you called their bluff.

I had a call today from the courts mediation service to make an appointment for telephone mediation. When I explained reasons why I disputed that I owed any money to Cabot, they said that mediation was not the answer and a date will be made for a hearing.

 

What will I need to do before I attend the hearing?

Hi CAG,

 

After weeks of nothing, I have today received a Form N24 General Form of Judgement or Order.

 

It says that the judge has read the court file and "IT IS ORDERED THAT: Claimant must file a reply to defendant by ** June 2015"

 

What does this mean please someone?

Not sure in what context what they must reply to....CCA/Dislosure/Witness statement ? But what ever if they don't by June...then it looks like sanctions will be imposed.

Ok, here is the latest.

 

After I receive the form, I phoned the court to find out what was going on and they said that they had sent a request to Weightmans for a defence and had to submit it within a specified time period.

 

I have today received a copy of the defence from Weightmans that they have now filed with the court which means that a court date will now be iminent.

 

Recaping on the whole thread,I have disputed this debt because 1. I have never heard of Moneyway, 2. I never took out any loans in 2008/09 which they state & 3. If I did, it would not have been in my maiden name.

 

  • I wrote to Cabot stating that I disputed this debt and requesting a copy of signed agreement
  • They wrote back saying they did not have it on file but would request it and anticipated within required timescale
  • I defended the claim with statute barred defence as I knew if there was such a debt it would be SB because its in my maiden name. thought that would have been the easiest way .......WRONG!
  • then got a letter from weightmans saying it was not SB as I apparently made a payment in 2009 (There is nothing on my credit file re this debt) so they were cracking on with the claim.
  • Received a letter from Cabot stating that they could not get CCA so account was on hold and they could not get a judgement against me in court back in Feb. Nothing has changed since then.
  • Weightmans have continued to push the claim and I have done nothing but sit and see if Cabots and Weightmans actually communicate so Weightmans will realise they cannot continue because of the letter I have from Cabot, but o no, its still going full steam ahead and that is really where we are now.

I anticipate that I will get a court date through this week.

So, I need help please Caggers with the following questions:

1. Do I need to do a written defence to the court?

2. Is it to late to add to the defence that they have also failed to produce paperwork and they have admitted in writing they cannot get a judgement against me?

3. Should I send a CPR to Weightmans to see what documents they are actually going to pull out the bag at court?

I can post on here there reply to defence if anyone would care to see it.

Any help in plain english would be so appreciated. (Not good with legal jargon)

Thanking you all in anticipation>

No Andy, I dont recall making payments to Moneyway or Cabot in the August, in fact to my knowledge I have never had any dealings with this company I have never heard of Moneyway. They havent as yet come up with any documents to prove I ever had an agreement with them.

 

What I need to know now a court date is looming is can I send further documents to the court or can I take these with me? Do I need to prepare anything to take with me?

Just wait now and see if they wish to proceed...If they do you will have to complete a directions questionnaire and once submitted the the court will direct you what and next you have to prepare

for.

Okay .....I advise on that many threads I forgot you had already done it......

 

So if you have participated in mediation then you must have had the Notice of Allocation ?

Yes I received a Notice of Allocation a few weeks ago.

 

 

Then I got a letter from the court that I mention in post #86.

Weightmans complied with the judges request and the reply to defence I recieved the other day which is the document I posted a couple above.

This is why I am concerned as a court date will fall through my letterbox any day now and I dont know what I should do next.

 

 

I want the hearing seeing as weightmans are not giving up because I want to explain to the Judge that I genuinely dispute having anything to do with this debt

as I have never heard of them and they cannot produce docs.

 

 

I will also explain that the reason I defended as SB is because the alleged debt is in my maiden name

and I havent been known as that since 1996 when I got married and there is nothing on my credit file.

 

 

They have failed to comply with my request to provide docs which I requested in Feb and as mentioned earlier in the thread,

Cabots have written to me recently stating that as they cannot produce docs they cannot obtain a judgement against me.

 

What I need to know is should I send a CPR to Weightmans as I havent done that and can I submit a secondary defence of no CCA?

Normally the Notice of Allocation advises the trial date and Directions in the event that mediation fails.......I state normally in view of the Order you received N24...which is not normal.

Are there any directions contained in your notice of Allocation?
