    • I'm sure I've said before that it's fine and dandy bringing in rules that favour you or your party, but you have to consider how it would play out if your opponents get in and want to use the same rules...

    • look on the bright side - it would allow Biden to do what he likes ...
    • Few tweaks as the run order was completely messed up and the main point of your defence (reconstituted agreement) pushed to the bottom of the statement.   I, XXXXXX, being the Defendant in this case will state as follows; I make this Witness Statement in support of my defence in this claim and further to my set aside application dated 1 November 2022. 1.The claimants witness statement confirms that it mostly relies on hearsay evidence as confirmed by the drafts in person in the opening paragraph. It is my understanding they must serve notice to any hearsay evidence pursuant to CPR 33.2(1)(B) (notice of intention to rely on hearsay evidence) and Section 2 (1) (A) of the Civil Evidence Act. 2.  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 wrote off as a capital loss and claimed against taxable income as confirmed in the claimants witness statement exhibit by way of the Deed of Assignment. 3. 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. 4.  I became aware of original Judgement following a routine credit check on or around 14th September 2020. 5. The alleged letter of claim dated 7 January 2020 was served to a previous address which I moved out of in 2018, no effort was made to ascertain my correct address.  I have attached a copy of my tenancy agreement which is marked ‘Appendix 1’ and shows I was residing at a difference address as of 11 December 2018 and was therefore not at the service address at the time the proceedings were served.  I have also attached an email from my solicitors to the Claimants solicitors dated 14 July 2022 which was sent to them requesting that they disclose the trace of evidence they utilised prior to issuing the proceedings against me.  This is marked ‘Appendix 2’. The claimants solicitors did not provide me with these documents. 6. Under The Pre-Action Protocol for Debt Claims 2017 a Debt Buyer must undertake all reasonable enquiries to ensure the correct address of a debtor, this can be as simple as a credit file search. The Claimant failed to carry out such basic checks. Subsequently all letters prior to and including ,The Pre action Protocol letter of claim dated 7 January 2020 and the claim form dated 14th February 2020 were all served to a previous address which I moved out of in 2018. 7. Upon the discovery of the Judgement debt, I made immediate contact with the Court and the Claimant Solicitors, putting them on notice that I was making investigations in relation to the Judgement debt as it was not familiar to me.  I asked them to provide me with a copy of the original loan agreement but this was not provided to me.   The correspondence to the Claimant Solicitor's is attached and marked ‘Appendix 3’ 8. On (insert date) I successfully made application to set a side the judgment. The claim proceeded to allocation, 9. The claimant failed to comply with the additional directions ordered by District Judge Davis on the 2 February 2024 'The Claim shall be automatically struck out at 4pm on 3 April 2024 unless the Claimant delivers to the Court and to the Defendant the following documents.' None of these documents were received by the court nor the defendant by that date. (insert date you did receive the documents) I then sent a Data Subject Access Request to Barclays but no agreement was provided. Details the timeline of communication between myself and Barclays are attached and marked ‘Appendix 4’and the copies of correspondence between myself and Barclays are attached and marked ‘Appendix 5’. Remove irrelevant 10.The claimant relies upon and has exhibited a reconstituted version of the alleged agreement. It is again denied that I have ever entered into an agreement with Barclaycard on or around 2000.  It is admitted that I did hold other credit agreements with other creditors and as such should this be a debt that was assigned to Barclaycard from another brand therefore the reconstituted agreement disclosed is invalid being pre April 2007 and not legally enforceable pursuant to HHJ Judge Waksman in Carey v HSBC 2009 EWHC3417.  Details of this are attached and marked ‘Appendix 6’. The original credit agreement must be provided along with any reconstituted version on a modified credit agreement and must contain the names and address of debtor and creditor, agreement number and cancelation clause. 11. Therefore the claimant is put to strict proof to disclose a true executed legible agreement on which its claim relies upon and not mislead the court. 12. It is denied I have ever received a default Notice pursuant to sec 87(1) CCA1974.The claimant is put to strict proof to evidence from the original creditors internal document software the trigger of said notice.  13.   As per CPR 1.4(2)(a) the court encourages parties to cooperate with each other in the conduct of proceedings in order to try and save time and costs for the parties and to also save the time and resources of the court however, despite vast attempts at mediation the claimants have been most unreasonable and have remained unwilling to mediate. 14. Until such time the claimant can comply and disclose a true executed copy of the original assigned agreement they refer to within the particulars of this claim they are not entitled while the default continues, to enforce the agreement pursuant to section 78.6 (a) of the Credit Consumer Act 1974. I believe that the facts stated in this Witness Statement are 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 its truth.

    • As one of you mentioned above I've been in a mess for nearly 20 years now and I'm ready to sort my credit report out now - the main reason I got into second round of debt is my kids being unwell and the state considering them not unwell enough for extra help so despite my son being in hospital for 3 months in one year we got extra zero help and I eventually lost my job and got into debt to just so I can be تا my sons hospital bed at his time of need - my life basically fell apart and all these debts got me again

    • 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 there and thanks for reading,

 

I leant my car to my partners brother last November whilst he was over here on holiday as he lives in Spain.

My insurance allowed him to drive so no worries there.

 

Whilst he borrowed the car he parked on Private land in Cardiff and received a PCN which he never told me about.

 

obviously after the ticket was not paid or appealed they wrote to me advising me of the fact and to which I replied with the drivers details and his address in Spain.

 

I heard nothing more until about 4 weeks ago when I received a letter from a solicitors acting on behalf of the parking company advising me that if I did not pay the PCN in full plus expenses I would be taken to court.

 

I wrote back to the solicitors advising them that I was not the driver at the time of the ticket being issued and again gave them the name and address of the driver all be it a Spanish address.

I told the solicitors they should direct their action at the driver and not me.

 

Today I have received a county court claim asking for £256 to paid or a CCJ will be registered against me.

 

I have replied to the court claim with a full defence and explained to the court what I have wrote above.

 

My question is

 

as I was not the driver at the time of the ticket being issued and I have supplied the drivers details on 2 occasions am I liable for the charge?

 

Any help or advise would be great.

 

Thanks

COPY OF DEFENCE SUBMITTED ON COURT PAPERS

 

My vehicle was parked on private land 7/11/15 in Cardiff.

at the time of this ticket being issued I was not the driver of the vehicle.

 

The parking company that issued the ticket wrote to me advising me that a parking ticket had been issued and had not been paid.

 

At this point this was the first knowledge I had of a ticket being issued.

 

I advised the parking company that I was not the driver of the vehicle at the time

and supplied them with the contact name and contact details of the driver who was.

At this point I thought that was the end of the matter.

 

A few weeks later I received a letter from Gladstone Solicitors

advising me that an unpaid parking fine had been issued by Link Parking Ltd.

 

I again wrote to Gladstone Solicitors and I have pasted a copy of this letter below.

 

At every point I have responded with the claimant

and on both occasions I have supplied them with the details of the driver

at the time the ticket was issued.

 

They should take this action up with the driver and not me and thus this claim is invalid.

 

Vehicle Registration number *******

PCN Number *******

 

To whom it may concern,

 

I am writing in response to your letter dated 18/02/2016 in which you are threatening me with court action in regard to a non payment of a parking fine.

 

I would like to point out that I did respond to the original letter from the PCN issuing company

advising them of the details of the driver at the time so I am some what dismayed at the escalation now to yourselves.

 

I will once again include the details of the driver in charge of the vehicle at the time

and would ask you now take this up with them directly

as I have fulfilled my full legal obligation in supplying you with these details.

 

The driver at the time was ***** ****** who lives at the address

 

below.

 

removed

 

If you continue to correspond with me I will record all the details

and charge you £50 per hour in administration fees to cover my time

so pursue the driver of the vehicle and not me or take notice of my fees as listed above.

 

Kind regards

 

 

Leanne ***

I wonder whether it is worth sending the Solicitors a letter inviting them to withdraw on the basis that you will defend having complied with request to notify their client of the driver, with a statement from the driver that they have not been contacted.

We could do with some help from you.

That is an option but surely the solicitor has already ignored my letter to them disclosing the drivers details and opted to issue court papers. I am not going to pay for a ticket when I was not the driver and had complied with giving them the drivers details

Of course the solicitor has ignored it, he knows he has zero chance of bringing an action against someone in spain.

He will be continuing to pursue you for it because there is no one else he can target, he also knows if you defend, he doesnt have a leg to stand on.

 

Uncle's letter seems like a good idea

Also,

do you have the original paperwork sent by Link and the subsequent correspondence from Gladstones?

 

Gladstones are the IPC in another frock so as the IPC says it doesnt use the PoFA regarding keeper liability

they can only pursue the driver as their letters are mostly not compliant witht he POFA.

 

 

If the paperwork you have fails to meet the criteria then Link will be acting with vex

and you can go after them for full defence costs

and I would suggest that would include the air fare of your main witness, hotel costs etc etc.

 

Also, contact the council where the car park is and see if Link have planning permission for the signage

that they rely on to form a contract.

 

 

This should be applied for and granted under the advertising display hoardning regs of the Town and Country Planning Act.

 

 

Do not accept that it is deemed consent, it isnt.

Any signage that doesnt have PP is there illegally and you cannot enter intoa contract

based on illegality even if you wanted to.

 

When you know about the planning permission (if they dont have it)

write to Gladstones and demand sight of the contract between the landowner and Link

that assigns the right to enter into contracts with motorists and make claims

and take legal action in their own anme.

 

 

Also ask for a copy of the planning consent for the signage.

 

 

This should be done as a CPR 31.14 discovery request.

Give them 14 days to provide the evidence or you will ask for the claim to be struck out

as having no locus standi, cause for action and being vexatious.

 

Dont ask Gladstones nicely, let them know you will be after their client (if the PP isnt there)

as nothing more than a bunch of crooks.
