    • 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.

I can only concur with BA PT and WD in this, No CCJ, so no addition of any fees permissible, this mob must be reported to MOJ PDQ. You are in safe hands belle withBA WD and PT

 

WD it is of great concern that Claire Sandbrook of Sherfarce touts out to these shysters. Perhaps MOJ sdhould remove any license or consents for the Dog The Bounty Hunter wannabee resident in the USA, to be a HCEO?EA here. Well she is now not a UK Resident so should not be operating in debt recovery here any more.

 

Those documents are sufficient for MOJ to kick this shower known as dcbl very hard indeed. They are more cowboy than Parking Eye to say the least.

We could do with some help from you.

Can I personally thank all those with the right experience for aiding this thread.

I wasn't absolutely sure of the situation but I did believe that what they are doing is wrong and I am relieved my belief was justified.

 

Hopefully, this action will earn them 12 points from the BPA as this is a serious case of misleading.

 

No doubt they will say it is a computer error. Nope! Computers don't make errors, people do.

 

As well as reporting them to the MOJ and the BPA, I would inform Trading Standards as they may already have similar cases.

It is time that with new Regulations over a year old for the cowboy element to be investigated, outed shamed and shut down. Watchdog Rogue Traders might be a vehicle to kick it off. Well we can hope.

 

Those documents are so wrong and chock full of unlawful charges it is unreal, especially as it is a PPC invoice for parking in a disabled bay at an ASDA

as per belle:

 

"I parked in Asda, Cardiff Bay in a disabled space on a match day.

I literally ran in to put my lottery on. "

Thank you, I would really appreciate help with a letter :)

 

I am making some enquries about this and will draft something for you later this afternoon.

 

On a slightly different subject, this debt is for a private parking ticket. The legality of these tickets will finally be resolved once and for all tomorrow when the Supreme Court deliver it's judgment in the Barry Beavis case. Fingers and toes all crossed.

I agree with the comments already made, they have illegally edited a prescribed form to infer more powers than they actually have and potentially charge fees that are not permissible.

 

One for the FCA and MoJ to deal with.

I wonder how many other people have received these letters & demands from DCBL. In my view and because they are making folks believe they are acting as an enforcement agent in these cases complaint should also be made to CIVEA, also the terms they are using "second enforcement stage" is something more accustomed to the language HCEOs use and would therefore say complaint must also be made to the HCEOA.

 

Whilst I accept both CIVEA & HCEOA are both self governing bodies for the Enforcement industry this matter is so wrong & DCBL must be brought to book or ostracised for their behaviour. It has been said previously elsewhere that the Authorised HCEO for DCBL is one who lives abroad - the Lord Chancellor is responsible for for these appointments and it would do no wrong to copy the LC with any communications.

 

Members of the Enforcement Industry who post on this Forum have said there is nothing preventing the ordinary Joe Public making a complaint about the actions of the Authorised HCEO or for those who offer themselves as "HCEO for Hire". I assume therefore they have made representations themselves as actions such as these are doing more harm than good to the industry. It appears that the Enforcement sector have learned nothing and wish to press the self destruct button instead.

In this instance the main complaints lie with the FCA and the MoJ although the HCEOA may also be interested in some capacity.

 

DCBL's US based HCEO is not a Director of this company nor a shareholder. She merely gives them her authority to enforce High Court writs in her name since the rapid demise of her own company.

 

Strangely, their former HCEO (who gave his name to over 15 companies at one time) is still listed as a Director and minority shareholder.

 

It is always disappointing when a small relatively new company like this continually break rules and regulations. The enforcement industry has made some positive steps in recent years and whilst it's by no means perfect it is these very actions that drag us back.

Doesn't matter she is not a Director as enforcement is carried out in her name and it is in her own best interests to ensure all the other employees toe the line as it is her neck that the axe will fall on as in the case it looks as if she is condoning their actions.

As she is non resident, perhaps she feels untouchable whilst in the USA, and might have no intention of returning to the UK.

More reason for the Lord Chancellor to remove her Certifications.

It looks like they have used one of their bailiff forms to make it look legit but is in fact just a dca letter. No court ref or the like but a box saying parking charge reference that makes it all official- no it doesnt.

I would be double checking the possibility of a CCJ and then be making a complaint to the FCA about this.

Hi, how would I double check?

Ive checked my credit report and trust online.

Ive definitely not had any court letters.

 

Bailiff Advice is drafting me a letter so im going to wait until I send that before I do anything else.

 

To be honest its all a bit confusing but Im willing to do whatever is necessary to stop them doing this to anyone else.

I meant check previous addresses and if you were looking at credit reference agency reports check with trustonline. As you can see they are relying on a frightening name and bluff t6o make themselves a fortune. This isprobaby a criminal offence if you could but get someone interested in pursuing it but as you havent lost money they wont bother.

I was sent copies all correspondence last night and have carefully compared the Notice of Enforcement from DCBL with the government's statutory notice and it is indeed very interesting to note how DCBL have 'doctored' their notice. It is simply shocking. I will post more on this later today.

Will you be forwarding them suitably redacted to MOJ, with a side by side comparison, Certainly they should be informed of these shenanigans done on behalf of a bottom feeding Private Parking Contractor, to collect on a dodgy Invoice.

Just to add, we have a few more of these. All the same. All relate to either Cardiff Retail Park or Talbot Green. AFAIK, they are no longer at CRP but all of this is being passed to Cardiff Trading Standards. Any more send them there.

I would also add that you can complain to the BPA and the DVLA too. The contract that NGPM have with the DVLA to get keeper details has this clause

 

C3. Debt Collection

C3.1. The Customer shall abide by the FCA Debt Collection Guidance whenever it seeks to recover payment of unpaid Parking Charges from any person.

 

Clearly they (and DCBL who are BPA Members) are in breach of their (KADOE) contract so the BPA/DVLA should be made aware.

They will certainly try to rip everyone off. After all, that's their business model. It'll be a case of arguing how the ruling does not apply, case by case. E.g. no contract anyway, different circumstances which do not pass the relevant tests (see http://www.hardwicke.co.uk/insights/articles/the-law-on-penalties-after-parkingeye-v-beavis), amount charged is unconscionable and extravagant, ...
