    • Documents arrived today dated 27th March.  This is a cc taken out a long time ago (2008) and they don't seem to have been able to provide a copy of a CCA agreement, just reams of print outs of lines of texts from old bank statements, default notices etc.   
    • Documents finally arrived today from PRA group.  New day have sent me lots of paperwork, copies of default letters and statements, print out of what looks like a CCA that would have been completed on online, IP address as signature.  This debt is not too old, so possible this is the true copy of agreement ?  Not sure what my defence would be beyond irresponsible lending. 
    • pers i wouldn't.. all you need to know is in the posts of that thread....that being section 127(3) of the CCA refers. if under a CCA return, the 'creditor' claims its a recon, it must not contain any details like a sig, tickbox, or typed name (whether you signed physically or by online tickbox) 1. those are not necessary in a recon, so why inc them? (faked??) 2, it cant thus be a recon!!, it must be a copy of the 'original' from the original creditor, not from a debt buyers filing cabinet. they shouldn't not be 'mixing' some original docs from the OC with crap from their filing cabinet, claiming its ALL a recon! because some of it is faked. just remember there are far more docs like NOA and a DN that are as equally important to a court claim of 'this debt is enforceable'. never rely solely upon the dodgy agreement argument.

    • 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.

This is what Lloyds have sent me,

clearly not the original as the font is exactly the same as on the new 1

and it looks like it was literally printed yesterday,

shocked really as I only sent the letter friday but theres a copy of this, the current terms and a statement.

 

Now i'm no expert but I think this is probably what they send everyone,

 

 

how do I know this is what I agreed to?.

 

 

Confusing as hell though,

"see condition 8" etc.

 

 

Clearly deliberately written with the intention of making little sense, but please can someone have a look. :)

Hi,

 

Does the paperwork have your name, address or signature anywhere on the document?

 

If not then they are just generic terms and conditions.

 

If this ever came to court and they produced the same documents with your signature on it then it would be (in my opinion) enforceable but at the moment, they haven't complied

If you are asked to deal with any matter via private message, PLEASE report it.

Everything I say is opinion only. If you are unsure on any comment made, you should see a qualified solicitor

I believe that "agreement" is freshly printed as you so rightly think.

 

There are no dates to ascertain what year they belong to. (when was the original agreement started?)

 

Two choices. Accept what they have sent or challenge it. I would go for the latter but it's your choice

Hi Craigbadger. Not sure what they have sent you but will check this tread again tonight, as I cant always see or open attachments at work. Mine was opened about 1996, and I was sent a generic set of T&C's.

There is no such thing as a 0% credit card....... someone out there is paying for it, and for once its not going to be me.:razz:

Ok, well i'm going to write back asking for a copy of the original agreement anyway. I'm in a position where I have nothing to lose, considering bankruptcy so even if I get a few weeks with 1/5 less phone calls it worth while :D

 

Let me know if yours looks the same, as said ive removed my name and address from the top of page one but otherwise its completely generic.

Hi

 

just compared your with mine, similar typeof twaddle, but not identical. I had never actually read what they sent me but it made me laugh. Statements such as:

 

1. from 1st October 2008, we will not charge.... ( my account was opened in 1996)

 

2. The total charge for credit is shown in your original agreement

There is no such thing as a 0% credit card....... someone out there is paying for it, and for once its not going to be me.:razz:

In regards to what Lloyds sent me

 

this is a print off of a generic agreement with my name and address printed at the top.

 

There is nowhere on the form a mention of the date and no signature or even a box.

 

Silverfox said in the thread that they had not complied but if they had a true signed copy with this information

on that it would be correctly executed but again this was not guaranteed to be the agreement I signed.

 

Can anyone tell me where I should go from here?.

 

I notice someone has recently received a copy of their Lloyds agreement

and the enclosed letter recieved was worded different to mine

but they are saying they dont need to supply anything with a signature

but surely there needs to be evidence it was the same one I agreed to?

 

Btw this is what they said on the letter. For some reason this just sounds iffy to the degree they dont even know my original terms.

 

I have enclosed with this letter

:a copy of your original agreement, which has been updated with the current financial profile of your account

 

:a copy of current terms/signed statement etc.

Re: my request under the Consumer Credit Act 1974

 

Thank you for your recent letter sent to me, the contents of which are noted. I appreciate your quick response to my original letter. However, the reply received by me does not fulfil your requirements under the Consumer Credit Act 1974.

 

The Act demands that I be supplied with a true copy of any properly executed credit agreement that exists in relation to the above account. I may ask for this on demand providing that a fee of £1.00 is paid. This fee was sent with my original letter.

 

My request remains outstanding. The items you sent in your reply, does not constitute a true copy of any credit agreement that may or may not have been signed by me on the opening of this account. It neither confirms that I am liable for any alleged debt to you, nor gives me any chance to evaluate whether any original agreement was ‘properly executed’.

 

I still require you to send me a true copy of the original credit agreement that you allege exists. As you will know, under the Consumer Credit Act 1974, a judge is not permitted to make any enforcement order unless the creditor can provide a true signed copy of the original credit agreement. This means that unless you can produce such an agreement, this alleged debt is not enforceable in law.

 

You had until XX/XX/2008 to provide me with the true copy I requested. You are now in default of my request. Any account I hold with you is now in legal dispute. Whilst the account remains in dispute, you are not permitted to ask for any payment, nor am I obliged to offer any payment to you. Furthermore, whilst the dispute remains, you are not entitled to charge any interest on the account, nor make any further charges to the account. Additionally, you are not entitled to register any information on this account with any credit reference agency.

 

To register information with a credit reference agency, you must have written consent from the customer to collate and share such information. This consent is given in the form of a signed credit agreement, so until you produce such an agreement, you may not do this.

 

The requirement for consent to share data is a clear requirement of the Data Protection Act 1998. any such attempts to share my data without my consent will be met with a complaint to the Information Commissioners Office

 

To sum up, I will not be making any further payments to you until you provide me with the document I have requested. Whilst you remain in default of my request, you are not permitted to take any action against this account. This includes adding further charges and passing any information to the credit reference agencies.

 

Should you not have any signed credit agreement in relation to this alleged debt, please confirm this in writing to me.

 

 

I look forward to your reply.

 

Yours faithfully

Print name do not sign

 

**amend to suit your circumstances.**

Hi I am now subbing,

 

Just starting out with these for my OH, had standard response by the looks of it so planning to put account in dispute for non-compliance.

 

Cerberusalert, if you are around at all, your letter in post 2 is a differently worded letter to the account in dispute letter in the library, so is it more appropriate now in view of recent test cases and what CCC's believe they can produce?

 

Here is my thread, any help appreciated thank you.

Hi Craigbadger,

 

They have just sent CCA for my oh, variation to yours.

 

You would have thought they would be consistent in what they are sending out to people now, although they are endeavouring to locate the copy of the original!

and no doubt they will keep on endeavouring but never find them!!! Ive been waiting a year now, sent off a SAR, they lied about never receiving it although I sent it recorded delivery so have proof. Still waiting for the outcome of an investigation by the ICO.

I think thats the "how long is a piece of string question",

my original photocopy turned up less than a week after the reconstitued copy which I was surprised by.

 

I imagine they have literally millions to hunt through so having a common name might be a good thing.

 

The only thing I couldnt be sure about was whether it was a photocopy of the agreement or that of a microfiche.

 

 

We could do with some undercover staff in these companies to confirm what they actually do with agreements

 

 

ie scan and destroy, archive in Britain, archive in Afghanistan or just destroy and forget about them.

 

I think every case is very different though.

They do not have to send you the original

 

Taken from the OFT's guidance on unenfroceable agreements.

 

2.17 The copy of the executed agreement must be a 'true copy' of the original. However, as confirmed in the recent case of Carey v HSBC Bank plc, the term 'true copy' does not mean a carbon, photocopy, microfiche copy or other exact copy of the signed credit agreement.

2.20 The creditor or owner may not have preserved a copy of the executed agreement. Since the requirement is not to provide an exact copy, let alone a carbon, photocopy or microfiche copy, it can reconstitute a copy. It can do this, for example, by re-populating a template of the relevant agreement form with the details of the specific agreement taken from its records, a method approved in Carey v HSBC Bank plc. This will provide the information that the debtor or hirer may require as to the terms of the agreement. If the creditor or owner does provide are constituted copy, it should explain that that is what it has done, to avoid misleading the consumer that this is a contemporaneous copy. It can explain that this procedure is satisfactory under the Act.

The copy only has to show the exact terms and conditions as per the original.

It is true about Carey v HSBC Bank plc but if they were to bring proceedings they could be brought to 'strict proof' and have to produce the original. Even though technically they do not have to provide an exact copy with a CCA request which includes a signature it would be difficult for them to explain to a court why they hadn't tried to prevent the need for court action if they had evidence of an enforceable agreement beforehand.

Yeah no problem, as requested.

 

 

This is where someone tells me its unenforceable,

 

 

i'm confident the 2 sheets match although there is nothing concrete to say that the 2 match, it does refer overleaf.

 

 

Although tbh theres so much other things I can reclaim on this account(including the ppi which I didnt even notice till receipt of this)

I agree Cerberusalert, the original would have to be shown upon request by the courts.

 

On the otherhand reference an explaination to the court they would simply say it is their right to produce a copy of an agreement under the CCA which it is and by doing so they will have fully met the conditions of a CCA request.

 

Then when an original was produced in court it would be put to the consumer to explain why they were trying to wriggle out of an agreement where goods/money had been received by them on a techicallity.

 

The only way a judge would rule an agreement unenforceable would be for clear breaches such as a wrong APR, incorrect perscribed terms breaches such as those.

 

People are too much relying on the fact an agreement may be incorrectly executed and really should be encouraged not to do so rather than dig a bigger hole for themselves.
