Hey guys I have received a County Court summons for £244.96 Inclusive of Court Fee @£25 and Legal Representatives costs @£50.

 

The original debt was from "Three Mobile" and it says I failed to maintain contractual payments. It says the debt was legally assigned to "Lowell Porfolio 1 Ltd"

 

I can't remember if I paid this in full or not as it was a few years ago.

 

Is there anything I can do about this?

Hi there thanx for the reply but I did say above that I searched the site and there were no answers to my questions posted.

 

Your link makes it even more vague as it links to a 2011 post about Greece lol.

 

Please help me. I know you said it was self help but I can't find what else I need to do if anything and also can't find what defence I need?

You have until the 15th Feb to submit a defence.

Just wait until around 12th or so for any letters you may or may not receive from the claimant or solictors.

If they haven't responded or failed to give a compliant response then your defence will be the std holding / no paperwork defence.

You will be asked to put up a defence draft statement in this thread and will then be advised if it requires more work re-drafting to provide a suitable successful defence.

 

You have sent a CPR request to Cohen but have you sent anything to Lowell?

There is no agreement for a mobile phone contract, so there is little point in asking for one. However, you can ask Cohen to provide a statement of account which shows how the debt has arisen. Also if you have never received the Notice of Assignment then you can request a copy of that also.

 

Example of a mobile account and successful outcome:

http://www.consumeractiongroup.co.uk/forum/showthread.php?444786-Lowells-Carter-claimform-o2-Mobile-debt-***Settled-Claim-Withdrawn***

 

Worthwhile checking other examples of mobile cases won in the Legal Sucesses:

http://www.consumeractiongroup.co.uk/forum/forumdisplay.php?190-Legal-Successes

 

You will see drafted and full examples of the types of defence to apply. It's not simply copy and paste as each case is unique and requires redrafting.

Ok update on this one peeps.

 

The other week I got a letter from Lowells threatening me with usual ...

 

. A couple of days later they agreed to an extension to gather forms and information I had asked for

 

then the other day I got a letter confirming that they had discontinued the claim???

I didn't even put in a defence?

 

So this is over BUT even though I have asked before I didn't get an answer :

- On what grounds would I have defended this?

 

 

Why was this case dropped?

 

 

What is it that has been done wrong by them that makes them drop these cases

before it is defended or goes to court for a hearing??

Case dropped

loo in the links I posted

prob couldnt substantiate the claim so ran away

 

were hoping as all DCA's do

for a default rubberstamped non contested judgement

whereby nothing is checked.

you called their bluff by entering the defend all reply

show your cards fleecers or bugger off..

 

 

that's why whatever a claim is for ALWAYS DEFEND ALL

 

 

well done

Whatever their reason is irrelevant...main thing is that it has been discontinued.

 

So well done...and thread title amended to reflect the outcome.
