    • The Notice to Hirer does not comply with the protection of Freedoms Act 2012 Schedule  4 . This is before I ask if Europarks have sent you a copy of the PCN they sent to Arval along with a copy of the hire agreement et. if they haven't done that either you are totally in the clear and have nothing to worry about and nothing to pay. The PCN they have sent you is supposed to be paid by you according to the Act within 21 days. The chucklebuts have stated 28 days which is the time that motorists have to pay. Such a basic and simple thing . The Act came out in 2012 and still they cannot get it right which is very good news for you. Sadly there is no point in telling them- they won't accept it because they lose their chance to make any money out of you. they are hoping that by writing to you demanding money plus sending in their  unregulated debt collectors and sixth rate solicitors that you might be so frightened as to pay them money so that you can sleep at night. Don't be surprised if some of their letters are done in coloured crayons-that's the sort of  level of people you will be dealing with. Makes great bedding for the rabbits though. Euro tend not to be that litigious but while you can safely ignore the debt collectors just keep an eye out for a possible Letter of Claim. They are pretty rare but musn't be ignored. Let us know so that you can send a suitably snotty letter to them showing that you are not afraid of them and are happy to go to Court as you like winning.  
    • They did reply to my defence stating it would fail and enclosed copies of NOA, DN Term letter and account statements. All copies of T&C's that could be reconstructions and the IP address on there resolves to the town where MBNA offices are, not my location

    • My defence was standard no paperwork:   1.The Defendant contends that the particulars of claim are generic in nature. The Defendant accordingly sets out its case below and relies on CPR r 16.5 (3) in relation to any particular allegation to which a specific response has not been made. 2. Paragraph 1 is noted. The Defendant has had a contractual relationship with MBNA Limited in the past. The Defendant does not recognise the reference number provided by the claimant within its particulars and has sought verification from the claimant who is yet to comply with requests for further information. 3. Paragraph 2 is denied. The Defendant maintains that a default notice was never received. The Claimant is put to strict proof to that a default notice was issued by MBNA Limited and received by the Defendant. 4. Paragraph 3 is denied. The Defendant is unaware of any legal assignment or Notice of Assignment allegedly served from either the Claimant or MBNA Limited. 5. On the 02/01/2023 the Defendant requested information pertaining to this claim by way of a CCA 1974 Section 78 request. The claimant is yet to respond to this request. On the 19/05/2023 a CPR 31.14 request was sent to Kearns who is yet to respond. To date, 02/06/2023, no documentation has been received. The claimant remains in default of my section 78 request. 6. It is therefore denied with regards to the Defendant owing any monies to the Claimant, the Claimant has failed to provide any evidence of proof of assignment being sent/ agreement/ balance/ breach or termination requested by CPR 31.14, therefore the Claimant is put to strict proof to: (a) show how the Defendant entered into an agreement; and (b) show and evidence the nature of breach and service of a default notice pursuant to Section 87(1) CCA1974 (c) show how the claimant has reached the amount claimed for; and (d) show how the Claimant has the legal right, either under statute or equity to issue a claim; 7. As per Civil Procedure Rule 16.5(4), it is expected that the Claimant prove the allegation that the money is owed. 8. On the alternative, as the Claimant is an assignee of a debt, it is denied that the Claimant has the right to lay a claim due to contraventions of Section 136 of the Law of Property Act and Section 82A of the consumer credit Act 1974. 9. By reasons of the facts and matters set out above, it is denied that the Claimant is entitled to the relief claimed or any relief.
    • Monika the first four pages of the Private parking section have at least 12 of our members who have also been caught out on this scam site. That's around one quarter of all our current complaints. Usually we might expect two current complaints for the same park within 4 pages.  So you are in good company and have done well in appealing to McDonalds in an effort to resolve the matter without having  paid such a bunch of rogues. Most people blindly pay up. Met . Starbucks and McDonalds  are well aware of the situation and seem unwilling to make it easier for motorists to avoid getting caught. For instance, instead of photographing you, if they were honest and wanted you  to continue using their services again, they would have said "Excuse me but if you are going to go to Mc donalds from here, it will cost you £100." But no they kett quiet and are now pursuing you for probably a lot more than £100 now. They also know thst  they cannot charge anything over the amount stated on the car park signs. Their claims for £160 or £170 are unlawful yet so many pay that to avoid going to Court. When the truth is that Met are unlikely to take them to Court since they know they will lose. The PCNs are issued on airport land which is covered by Byelaws so only the driver can be pursued, not the keeper. But they keep writing to you as they do not know who was driving unless you gave it away when you appealed. Even if they know you were driving they should still lose in Court for several reasons. The reason we ask you to fill out our questionnaire is to help you if MET do decide to take you to Court in the end. Each member who visited the park may well have different experiences while there which can help when filling out a Witness statement [we will help you with that if it comes to it.] if you have thrown away the original PCN  and other paperwork you obviously haven't got a jerbil or a guinea pig as their paper makes great litter boxes for them.🙂 You can send an SAR to them to get all the information Met have on you to date. Though if you have been to several sites already, you may have done that by now. In the meantime, you will be being bombarded by illiterate debt collectors and sixth rate solicitors all threatening you with ever increasing amounts as well as being hung drawn and quartered. Their letters can all be safely ignored. On the odd chance that you may get a Letter of Claim from them just come back to us and we will get you to send a snotty letter back to them so that they know you are not happy, don't care a fig for their threats and will see them off in Court if they finally have the guts to carry on. If you do have the original PCN could you please post it up, carefully removing your name. address and car registration number but including dates and times. If not just click on the SAR to take you to the form to send to Met.

    • 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,

 

First time posting/reading the forums here and I'm in need of some advice.

 

I have an outstanding balance with Barclaycard for around £2,500 (credit card - no ppi).

 

 

Due to loss of job back in 2013 I went in to a debt management program,

since then I've been making payments for the last 18 months or so but at a rate under the minimum amount (agreed with my Debt Management Company).

 

 

In my first year of debt management I made a very small payment £100 or so to my DMC and they paid my creditors.

This year my financial situation had improved somewhat (new job etc) so I increased my payment up to around £200 a month,

 

 

Barclaycard accepted the new offer from my DMC but that last month I've received two letters

(one saying if I don't pay all amounts owed in full they will issue a Formal Demand, and then 3-4 weeks later the Formal Demand).

 

 

I'm a little unsure what to do next,

I simply can't pay the money,

I can't pay more a month as the £200 I'm paying now is a struggle

(I only earn £1000 p/m and bills, rent, car, etc etc plus the £200 to my DMC leave me very little to live on).

 

 

I still have a total outstanding amount of debt to the total of around £10,000 (including the Barclaycard money).

 

What do I do next as I

 

 

have until August to resolve this or Barclaycard will issue my debt over to a collection agency to recover the money,

again I don't have any thing for them to recover

and since I've had to move back in with my parents I'd rather that I didn't get someone just knocking at my door....

 

Any advice or help would be appreciated,

additionally it might be worth mentioning that I suffer from a condition called "telephonophobia"

so find it a real struggle to make any correspondence via this method....

Hope you guys can help :)

Are the DMC making the payments to Barclaycard ? Think you need to have a conversation with Barclaycard about what is happening ? Get the explanation and come back for further advice.

 

It may be that BC will only accept reduced payments for a period, before seeing it as a non performing debt. They then sell it to a DCA who is willing to accept reduced psyments over a long period of time. So the DMC will end up paying a DCA instead of BC. It is not a threat to start court proceedings, but simply BC saying that they don't want the debt on their books.

We could do with some help from you.

A few questions if you can answer them please?

 

When did you take out the sharklaycard?

 

Who is the debt management company? (I hope they are free?)

 

Have you checked your credit files?

 

Have sharklaycard been sending you a 'statement of account' every year telling you what the balance outstanding is?

 

Are they still adding interest and charges?

Who ever heard of someone getting a job at the Jobcentre? The unemployed are sent there as penance for their sins, not to help them find work!

Hi,

 

 

Thank you for such fast replies. I thought it would make life easier to just quote you all and give the information asked from each of you (as some of you ask for the same).

 

 

The DMC are Gregory Pennington (no their not free), they have been making all payments on time and on my behalf to the credit agencies for the last 18 months or so.

 

 

The outstanding £10,000 is owed between Barclaycard (credit card), Barclays Bank (personal loan) and Barclays Bank (personal overdraft). I also have my car on a finance agreements but this has been kept in good order and I pay the full payment every month without default or any issues.

 

 

The Barclaycard was taken out around 10 years ago, the loan was in 2012 and the overdraft has been on the account for over 10 years (although not in it until around 2012).

 

 

I'm unsure what you mean about checking my credit files?

 

 

I receive a monthly statement from Barclaycard and I believe an annual one also.

 

 

All interest is frozen on all of my credits since Gregory Pennington first took control of my debt management and repayments.

 

 

If you need anymore details please just ask :)

Dump this parasitic DMC TODAY!!

 

How much of the money you have been paying them have they been putting in their pocket?

If needs be SAR them to get all of the info they have on you regarding the payments they may or not have made to your creditors.

 

You should definitely CCA sharklaycard for the agreement on your CC,

http://www.consumeractiongroup.co.uk/forum/showthread.php?387435-CCA-Request-Consumer-Credit-Act-1974-**Updated-January-2015**

 

The debts, although they are with the same company, CANNOT be pooled together, they have to be kept separate., is this the case?

 

How much of the overdraft is their charges?

Have you reclaimed all of these?

 

The same goes for any charges, including interest levied on those charges on the CC, you should demand they are refunded, which will lower the total outstanding.

 

Check your credit files using Experian/Equifax, or for free using Noddle.

If you've not checked your CRF with either of the big two, Equi/Exp, then they do a free 30 day trial, but you must ensure you

cancel well within the 30 day trial period.

 

Keep a diary of events also, and copies of everything you receive from now on.

The first thing to do on Monday is to contact one of the charities like Step change and get your dmp done by them. You've been paying this company for 18 months for something you could have done yourself for free.

 

 

How do I go about changing everything? When I first setup my DMC I was continuously harassed by Barclays, phone calls to my mobile, home and even work address almost daily, countless letters, threats about not paying in full, letters explaining that none payment will result in court action etc etc... don't really want to have to go through another three or so months of this again :(

I think they take £15 p/m as their "admin fee" which at the time I didn't mind paying as my life was a total wreck (lost job, going through breakup after 10 years together, having to move back in with my parents etc etc).

 

 

I didn't realise that debts from different companies could be put together? How does this work? Is it like a loan to pay off my creditors and then I pay the loan? Or some type of credit agency buy my debts and then I just own them the one sum with agreed payments?

 

 

No charges that I am aware of, the overdraft was free and part of my current account. I'm unsure with the Barclaycard, what charges would you be talking about? I've never been over my credit limit (£8,000).

 

 

I have viewed my credit file with Experian just before I went in to debt management but cancelling this was a total nightmare and they would only do it over the phone....

 

 

Sorry, all of this is new to me and I'm not really up on what everything is when it comes to financial stuff..... I guess that's why I'm here :)

If you contact either Step Change or National Debtline they will give you all the information you need and in most cases do it for you.

That's because they then take a direct debit of £16 per month so don't want to make it easy to cancel. The regulations say that you can get it by post and the maximum that can be charged is £2.

Or consequently Noddle is your best friend from Callcredit. Completely free and no Im not a salesman! :lol:

Greg Pen have been in trouble with the FCA but you wernt to know that. You can go to Stepchange or Payplan and they will help you arrange a DMP or you can go at it alone :)

 

Bet you lots off charges on the account.

 

Do me a favour. List your other debts here and start a seperate thread for each one. We will help you out for sure :) I used to think that it was incorrect to add debts together however, they can do it in some circumstances. (Ive seen people with debts below the old Bankruptcy threshold with the same DCA and then they poole them together to bring it above the £750 limit)

 

We could do with some help from you.

You mention changing to another DMC or going it alone, how does this work? Will I receive the same as I did before (all the letters, phone calls, harassment)? What benefits/restrictions does changing this impose?

 

 

I don't know what my outstanding balance with each creditor is, at the time of taking up DM 18 months ago we were looking at;

 

 

Barclaycard - £3000

Barclays Loan - £7500

Barclays Overdraft - £1000

 

 

I don't have any other debts managed by Gregory Pennington and my Car with Santander is up-to-date and paid-in-full with around 30 remaining payments (£200 p/m).

For the BC a/c and the Barclays Loan a/c, you can reclaim all penalty charges added to the a/c's, eg late or missed pay't fees, overlimit fees, returned pay't fees.

 

If you don't have all a/c data to look for such charges, a single SAR to Barclays will produce data for all a/c's with them.

 

If you do have the a/c data, go through it for each a/c and identify the date and amount of each penalty charge. When you're ready, you can put this data onto spreadsheets.

To my knowledge there isn't anything on any of the accounts, I don't recall ever having to make any penalty charges but if you guys say its worth investigating then how would I go about this??

Hi JV,

 

You'd normally incur penalty charges on the BC and the loan a/c's if you were unable to service them as required. Unless you informed the creditors immediately when you couldn't pay, I'd expect you to have incurred such charges.

 

See the template here - http://www.consumeractiongroup.co.uk/forum/showthread.php?387306-Full-Subject-Access-Request-**Updated-January-2015**

 

You can mention each of the a/c's and their loan numbers to ensure they supply all the required data. Include the a/c with the o/draft, even though you can't recalim charges on that.

I've seen the template letter and all I seem to be requesting is a copy of any information regarding myself which they hold within their systems, is this correct?

 

 

Ok, so not to sound silly here but why do I want this information?

 

 

How is this going to help my case in reference to the Default Notice I've been served (which will be in place before I receive a response)?

 

 

You guys seem to have lost me a little here,

 

 

what exactly am I looking to achieve through this and will it prevent the Default Notice from coming in to effect??

(not that my credit file could get any worse anyway....).

 

This whole situation simply confuses the heck out of me and I'm lost as to what I need to be doing next..

. is going bankrupt an easier option as the people who I know that have done this seem to have gone bankrupt 3+ years ago

but now everything is over and done with, everything seems to have moved on and life is all peachy again

where as I'm trying to continue to make payments and fulfil my outstanding debts (all be it at a slower repayment rate)

and the creditors seem to want to make life as difficult as possible.

 

 

.. all of my credit/loans are unsecured and I don't own any personal assets for them to reclaim (house, car etc etc)

so wouldn't it just be easier to think "fek em" and not pay anything as it can't be any worse then how things are at the moment....

who checked your debts were enforceable before you even signed up with greedy pennies to pay them off?

certainly not greedy pennys that's for sure!

 

 

they not only get fees from you

they also get a % pof every payment you make on your debts by getting the tax back in the backfround.

 

 

and esp so if you are paying debts off to debt collection agencies.

 

 

go read a few threads in this forum

The harassment you have explained is par for the course for financial companies, hence why you should keep a diary of events

with a view to reporting them to the police for the criminal offence of harassment.

 

The letters are simply computer generated, and are spat out at regular intervals on a cycle, they have no idea

at what stage of the threat letters you're at until you contact them, then they look at their computer screen, and

then start reading from their script, which is why you never call powerless DCA's.

 

There are letters you can send to them to instruct them that they are not to continue their phone harassment.

Plus there is one to tell them you won't entertain any of their random doorstep strangers that they might think of using.

Who ever heard of someone getting a job at the Jobcentre? The unemployed are sent there as penance for their sins, not to help them find work!

I've seen the template letter and all I seem to be requesting is a copy of any information regarding myself which they hold within their systems, is this correct?

 

Ok, so not to sound silly here but why do I want this information?

 

How is this going to help my case in reference to the Default Notice I've been served (which will be in place before I receive a response)?

 

You guys seem to have lost me a little here,

 

Hi JV,

 

The SAR is a request for data held by the bank about you INCLUDING details of penalty charges and/or PPI on the a/c. These amounts can be reclaimed to reduce the balance owed to BC.

 

With BC cases, many of our site users have reclaimed penalty charges PLUS compound restitutionary interest. Where the charges go back a few years, the effect of claiming compound int't can be significant making a claim for less than £1,000 in charges worth many thousands of pounds.

 

So, in some cases, reclaiming penalty charges and/or PPI can result in Barclays clearing an a/c in ful AND paying you the balance.

 

If you have all old a/c statements, you can get the data you need from them without the need for an SAR.

 

;-)

We could do with some help from you
