    • good idea take some pix and put them in a PDF read UPLOAD dx
    • thread title updated moved to overseas debt forum. sadly as they are outside any UK jurisdiction upon DCA rules which state in the UK they must not call employers, there not alot you can do to stop these scammers. make sure you totally make private ALL social media twitter/facebook/linked in etc etc as there no-way for them to findout where you work otherwise so you must have a leak somewhere. find it. your employer details arent even legally available to UK DCA's so how have they found it out to date???  simply write to the BANK informing them of your correct and current address ALWAYS!!. if you want to arrange payment or not TO THE BANK ONLY thats upto you. never ever ignore a Statutory Demand a Letter Of Claim a Court Claimform. if if if any of those ever happen. till then ignore and rewash. dx

    • Hello All,  I’m hoping someone can help me urgently here. Firstly, I’d like to say I have read multiple other threads and have some what an idea of what I should be doing, however my case might be slightly different so coming with my own questions here.    my situation is I lived in Dubai and had a credit card and a loan, loan with HSBC and credit card with Emirates (or the other way round), I lost my job and was forced to leave the country as I was staying in the country on my companies visa.    since coming back, after a few years 2 different debt collections agencies have been approaching me (one being IDRW and the other J&P). I’ve never answered IDRWW and they constantly chase me by calling and messaging me and my employer. My current company is ok with this as I explained the situation but I’m soon to be joining a new company who definitely won’t be ok with being messaged and called. I’m afraid to continue to ignore them as they may message and calm the new employer as they have before and I’ll lose my job. However, it seems clear from these forums that dealing with the debt collection agencies is never a good idea. You shouldn’t agree to the amount or pay anything.    j&p caught me on my phone but I still haven't sent them any money or confirmed the amount they’re saying is owed, they keep pushing to pay off the “principal” amount by making monthly payments, from reading these forums it seems like if I make one of those payments (they have provided bank details for ENBD), then it’ll just be paying off interest and not actually clearing the principle debt and the bank won’t even approve receipt of payment or that it’s coming off principle.    this is my predicament as ignoring them might not be an option if they chase my new employer. Maybe there’s a way to ensure the debt collection agency don’t contact my new employer?? I don’t know? Massively appreciate peoples help here. Thanks,

    • 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.

Welcome secured loans/charge - sold to Alpha/Prime -repo received - ***Claim Dismissed***

My thinking is that there must be a process whereby charges can be disputed. e.g. a creditor, for what ever reason, won't remove it once the debt is paid. That link I provided above seemed to be an avenue - albeit I only skimmed over it.

 

I can see you've done a hell of a lot of work with this. It's admirable, to be perfectly honest.

 

Nevertheless, I think and hope you'll get through this claim and then you can set about addressing things properly. Maybe this claim will settle any issues over there being a chain with all the loans, thus enabling you to take the current Claimant to court later for any reclaimable charges you believe are due. This might substantially reduce the debt balance or even cover the whole amount. The charge will then be much easier to remove from that point. Does that make sense?

Land registry email

 

entry C4 on your title relates to a charge you took out with Progressive Financial services who subsequently went into Liquidation and a portfolio of their charges (over various properties) was sold to Alpha Credit Solutions on 17 September 2016.

 

Once a charge is paid the Loan Company should apply to Land Registry to have the charge dis-charged from the title. You will need to seek Legal advice on how to have this charge removed if it has been satisfied.

 

There is no entry of a charge dated 2008 in favour of Alpha Credit on your title so they would not be entitled to repossess your property.

Yours sincerely

 

They simply don't want to advise you, and are suggesting you get proper legal advice. I'm pretty sure there are options contained within that link.

 

All I'm doing here is trying to help with creating a logical plan of attack by playing the cards you've got in the best way possible. There are clearly issues outstanding, but I think it's not a bad idea to break it down into steps and then just take one step at a time. Step 1 is to get through this repo claim.

Yes it does.

 

Perfect sense I just need to get everything over to the judge clearly and consisly in next hearing.

 

Especially with how much has already been paid to loan. Just over what was borrowed so that’s good too.

 

My figure I was hoping to negotiate to pay them back monthly was around £75/100. Not even sure if that could be an option. Cos it’s up to judge now anyway isn’t it of he’s going to go through the figures

 

The judge already decided he was quashing the repo.

 

So hopefully that still stands next time too

Personally, I think it makes sense to take the remaining loan balance and divide by number of repayments remaining. e.g. £18k with 180 payments left equals £100 p/m.

 

 

....but hit them with a claim of your own later if you can't do anything this time around.

the claimants timings regarding their submission over the relationship between progression finance and welcome finance and the subsequent charge and allocation is serious flawed...

 

its a very big subject ….but its not..

 

not playing games...in basic terms the claimant is wrong...why.

please don't hit Quote...just type we know what we said earlier..

DCA's view debtors as suckers, marks and mugs

NO DCA has ANY legal powers whatsoever on ANY debt no matter what it's Type

and they

are NOT and can NEVER  be BAILIFFS. even if a debt has been to court..

If everyone stopped blindly paying DCA's Tomorrow, their industry would collapse overnight...

I have already paid to issue the counterclaim against them.

 

The Claimaint has issued a Vexatious claim all along. Changing their story at every oppurtunity.

 

I have all the paperwork to hand and it’s in order so if there’s anything you want to see or know just ask

I'm not sure what you mean DX - but one thing I note is it that in the Claimant's Response to Defence, they state in para 3: "The Defendant has provided a Financial Account.....which confirms that account balance was redeemed in April 2007."

 

Moving to para 4, they state: "The Defendant applied for a further advance in August 2008...".

 

Although they do mention in para 33 that the 2008 loan paid off a subsequent loan - that being acc. 661. Details appear very sketchy on this loan, that links 257 to 984. So much so, that they don't establish a link at all. Nowhere is the 661 account explained or substantiated regards it's role in keeping the charge alive.

 

Is this the loan that hasn't been notified to Land Registry?

 

I just had a peek at the statement they include in RP12 exhibit. It's difficult to work out at a glance, but does show the 661 account at the top and contains a chronological activity history. The amount of charges are absurd! One month that I just picked at random has £150 for "outside call fee".

 

Repayments were £68 p/w - right? ...£272 p/m. Yet, interest was nearly £500 p/m in early '08....plus the added fees. The balance on that account rose from £27k in January 08 to over £30k in Aug 08. The new loan then suddenly costs just £200 or less in interest. What was their game??

I’m going to email you something now it will provide some clarity for you.

 

I believe they are being sketchy on 661 due to the fact it came under the old CCA legislation and should be voided

 

There is a link but they have not provided it it’s 303

 

661 doesn’t link directly to 257

 

I firmly believe that any subsequent charge the LR should have been notified and the legal charge dates changed to correspond with the loans.

 

They were always amended date wise from 2001 to 2006

And maybe a witness statement?

 

I haven’t been asked by the judge to provide anything. But I could really help me if I did. Cos I don’t think my defence done enough. My arguements on each hearing has got the judge on my side as I have made the other side look incompetent . But I just want this finished once and for all on the 15th June

 

They have to provide a Skeleton arguement 7 days before and provide a trial bundle 2 days before

If the claimant has submitted a witness statement in response to the order then the defendant is always entitled to respond...providing its constructive and new and not just regurgitating information.

 

If not then a simple skeleton argument should suffice.

Hi Cruz

 

You'll have the benefit of seeing the Claimant's skeleton from the middle of next week, so you can adapt your own accordingly if necessary. In the meantime, do you want to start listing your key points in defence? i.e. Dispute with OC, Arrears, CCA, Charge, Penalty Charges, etc - that sort of stuff. We can add or subtract points between us in due course.

 

I've got a good skeleton argument here somewhere that I'll pop up when I find it. This will give you a good idea of content and structure. Once you start laying out the basis of what you want to cover, writing the rest will flow and you should feel much clearer then about your approach for the hearing.

Also, I'm mindful of the advice given by ell-enn earlier in the thread, so I need to revisit that and work out if your approach to the hearing this time around needs to be similar to those previous. The aim of the game is the same - the defeat the repo claim. I don't want us to over-complicate things when something much simpler will get you over the line. Let's see how it goes.

He called possession off and said that there aren’t any arrears and I was techicnally in front.

 

The other party wanted to appeal it's written all out on page63/4 see also post 1277

 

 

Ongoing Dispute with welcome finance from March 2015. With regards to IR, penatly charges fake insurances . Sold on almost immediately

 

 

Should the agreement still be covered by CCA

 

The charge on property should have been discharged upon settlement of 257. Then a new one taken out for 661 or 983

 

The Claimaint issuing claim without having facts dates and amounts correct

 

However Now they have upped the arrears so they look they they are more than to Ppi refund. Still don’t add up to themissed monthly payments

Ah, ok... that's a positive. I will go back and re-read that bit. If this stuff is being considered at the hearing, then it's fair game for including in your skeleton and really turn the screw on them. Their case is so full of holes that I doubt they know whether they're coming or going anyway - more a case of hoping they can wing it on sparse information, and avoiding the truth.

I’m just praying the dj was true to his word and is coming back out of retirement to finish this off as he said he would.

 

All along he said that IR can’t be used in a repo case. When I referred to the history and background of loans.

 

Yet now the judge wants breakdowns and its looking to me as if he is opening the statement and figures right up. Even if it is only 984

 

The interest reduction arguement and then falsely claiming interest helped me
