    • Have we seen your court bundle?   If we haven't then it's probably an idea to post it up here especially the index page and the witness statement so we can see if there is anything which might need adding or changing 
    • "Care to briefly tell someone who isn't tech savvy - i.e. me! - how you did this?" Its pretty simple although not obvious. You open the google maps app > click your profile picture > Click Timeline from the list > click today > choose the date you want to see the timeline from. Then you'll see your timeline for that day. Often, places you have visited will have a question mark beside them where google wants you confirm you have actually visited. You either click 'yes' if you have, or you click 'edit' to enter the actual place you visited. Sometimes, you'll see 'Missing visit' This probably happens if your internet connection has dropped out at that time. You simply click 'Add visit' and enter the place. The internet on my crappy phone often loses connection so I have to do that alot.   OK dx, understood mate. 
    • I have now been given a court date vs Evri, 4th Sept 2024. I have completed my court bundle, when am I expected to send copies to the court and Evri and should it be in hard copy or electronic? The Notice of Allocation states that no later than 7 days before the directions hearing both parties must send to the other party their final offers to settle. Does this mean I will have to tell Evri what I'm willing to settle? Rgds, J
    • Ok how about this to the CEO? I know it sounds super desperate but lets call a spade a spade here, I am super desperate: Dear Sir, On 29th November 2023 I took out a loan of £5000 with you. Unfortunately very early into 2024 I found myself in financial difficulty (unexpected bills and two episodes of sickness and the tax office getting my tax code wrong resulting in less pay for two months) and I contacted you (MCB) on 13th February 2024 asking if there was any way I could extend the length of my loan to 36 months. I fully explained why I was requesting this and asked for your help. I did not receive a reply to that email so I again contacted you on 7th March 2024 to advise you of a change in my circumstances which resulted in me having to take out a DMP and asking you to confirm that the direct debit had been cancelled. You would have also received confirmation of this DMP from StepChange but you did not acknowledge receipt of my email. I have only managed to make one payment from my loan but did try and contact MCB to discuss extending my loan, help etc.  I have now therefore fallen behind on several of my debts, yours included, and as a result you have lodged a Cifas marker against my name for "evasion of payment", which has resulted in me having to change banks, which has been an extremely difficult process because of the Cifas marker. I do not feel you have been fair or given me the opportunity to fully explain my situation to you before you lodged the marker against my name. I appreciate it is a business and you have acted accordingly, but I did try to make contact to arrange alternative arrangements and at no point, not even to this day, did I ever intend to not repay my loan. I cannot stress to you enough how much this has affected my mental health. I am having trouble sleeping and my existing health condition has been exacerbated by all of this. What I would like you to do is to please, please remove the Cifas marker and let me make arrangements to pay the loan back through a DMP.  Please sir, I am begging for your help here. I am not a dishonest person and I have never been in a situation like this before. I am desperately trying to make things right but this marker is killing me. Please can you help me? I look forward to hearing from you. Yours faithfully,

    • 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 Guys Need Some Help

 

My partner took out a loan with welcome in 2007 which up until end of march all payments were met

due to circumstances with money ect she could not afford the repayments

 

 

rang them offering to pay £30 at the end of april which she did, she has cancelled her standing order with the bank

and told them she would pay something at the end of each month,

 

 

it seems thats not good enough as for the last 4 weeks they have been bombarding her with phone calls,

to mobile, home and even her place of work

the last straw was a home visit earlier today of an agent from local office the next payment is not even due yet.

 

Any ideas on what the way forward is

 

many thanks KH41

Re: Harassment by telephone

 

ACCOUNT NUMBER: XXXXXXX

Dear Sirs

I am writing in relation to the quantity and frequency of telephone calls that I have received from your company, which I deem to be personally harassing.

I have verbally requested that these stop, but I am still receiving calls. (Delete if necessary)

I now require all further correspondence from your company to be made in writing only.

I am of the view that your continued harassment of me by telephone puts you in breach of Section 40 of the Administration of Justice Act 1970, and the Protection from Harassment Act 1997.

If you continue to harass me by telephone, you will also be in breach of the Communications Act (2003) s.127 and I will report you to, FOS, OFCOM, Trading Standards and The Office of Fair Trading, meaning that you will be liable to a substantial fine.

Be advised that any further telephone calls from your company will be recorded.

 

Also please be advised that I will only communicate with you in writing. I have noted your repeated attempts to contact me by telephone over the past few weeks/months and these have been duly logged by time and date.

 

Furthermore, should it be your intention to arrange a “doorstep call”, please be advised that under OFT rules, you can only visit me at my home if you make an appointment and I have no wish to make such an appointment with you.

 

There is only an implied license under English Common Law for people to be able to visit me on my property without express permission; the postman and people asking for directions etc (Armstrong v Sheppard & Short Ltd [1959] 2 QB 384

. per Lord Evershed M.R.). Therefore take note that I revoke license under Common Law for you, or your representatives to visit me at my property and, if you do so, you will be liable to damages for a tort of trespass and action will be taken, including but not limited to, police attendance.

 

 

send recorded

My partner is with welcome finance paying them £1 per month out of his jobseekeers. When ever they ring or send a letter they charge £10 to his account!! so be wary of this!

 

Then he should charge them exactly the same everytime he calls or writes to them!

Actually there is a link between them I found this on the money saving forum.

 

...Welcome Finance is YES Loans ONLY lender, so DON'T APPLY to YES Loans as they will take your money and keep you waiting for their 'paperwork' for weeks before they tell you they can't do the loan for you.... THEY ARE COWBOYS!

HI All, firstly thank you everyone for all your help much appreciated

 

Ok an update

 

I googled for welcome earlier and got nottingham number for compliance and decided to give them a call, they seemed very interested to hear about one of there branch managers strong arm tactics and i advised them i was sending them the harrassment letter and an i&e letter with an offer of payment from my OH.

 

Just for good measure i got my OH to phone welcome branch manager up who is chasing her , who at first tried to negotiate with her but when informed she had sentoff letters and spoken to notingham his whole atitude changed , accepting her offer of payment, promising to take her phone details off file and do everything in writing in future.

 

personally think its a crock of **** but will see

Good evening

I received a claim form yesterday from the court in regard to welcome finance loan,

sold to Lowell sometime in 2007/8 from the statement of accounts

 

ive had from Lowell it says client agreement dated 04/08/2007

so im assuming this is when I took the loan out

if so I would of defaulted on the account august September 2008.

 

I have not paid anything since and im sure I have sent of cca requests before and have had nothing back so account should be in dispute but im not sure .

 

so basically I have posted the letter here and hope someone can give me so advice on what I should do . I have gone online and refuted the claim

 

I received this today from Bryan carter

 

looking forward to your replies and good advice.

 

 

Name of the Claimant ? Lowell

 

Date of issue –13-10-2015

What is the claim for

1.the claimant claims the sum of 1959.21 being monies due from the defendant

between the claimant and welcome finance under reference number XXXXX

and assigned to the claimant 30-08-12 notice of which has been given to the defendant

2.the defendant failed to maintain contractual repayment under the terms of the agreement

and a default notice has been served which has not been complied with.

3.and the claimant claims 1959.21

at a rate of 8% per annum

from the date of assignment of the agreement to date

but limited to a maximum of one year and a maximum of 100

amounting to 156.73

When did you enter into the original agreement before or after 2007? ( 04 08 2007 )

Has the claim been issued by the original creditor

Have you been receiving statutory notices headed “Notice of Default sums” – at least once a year ? ( No )

Why did you cease payments? ( Harassement from Main office and refusal to accept my offer at the time )

What was the date of your last payment? ( not certain but think around may/june 2009 maybe before )
