Lowell claimform - old Very Shop Direct CAT 'debt'

[JackF]

Hello,

I just received a letter this morning from County court Business centre, which states that I owe Lowell £289.78 including court fees, ect...

 

I do not understand why I need to pay these fees

because I've never held a account which states to be on the letter with Shop Direct.

 

I remember buying a TV from Very.co.uk,

but I had paid the full amount,

and thought it was done and dealt with.

 

And now I receive this

 

please guys could you help me?

 

Really frustrated with this, and do not understand any of these nonsense.

 

If there is any details I've missed out,

or you would like to aid/help me in this, please post,

so I can know, and bare with me in advance.

 

Thank you guys. ^.^

what do you mean by a letter

you mean a claim form N1

or a judgement for claimant

very ARE SHOP DIRECT [their parent company]

[JackF]

Not entirely sure with the name of the form, as it doesn't really state, but it has sections to fill.

 

But, I never agreed to shop with them (Shop Direct), and if they sold or whatever without my consent I'm sure there's something here.

 

States this at the bottom of the page.

N1SDT claim form (04.14)

N9B

N9A

N9SDT

very are a catalogue company

shop direct are the parent company they and JD Williams own most of the 100's of catalogue firms

you obv did pay this off

so they sold it to a DCA/debt buyers [lowells]

and they've taken it to court

easy to defend

please answer the link before you do anything further

but get a move on

time is ticking.

[JackF]

I will try and fill it out tomorrow.

Hopefully.

 

I hope by this week should have it completed,

do you think that's enough time?

Because I have other jobs pending that's the thing.

hey don't waste too much time

you only have 19 days to ack the claim!!

and a total of 33 days to file a defence!!

 

that link is not that important for the minute

 

but getting the claim ack'd and sending CCA/CPR IS!!

 

forget the paper claimform, you don't need to do anything wit that...

 

look at it

goto the mcol website

 

register

and the select the AOS box

[acknowledge the claim]

defend all

leave jurisdiction unticked

click thru to the end and confirm.

 

get a CCA request running to the claimant

and

get a CPR 31:14 running to the solicitors

 

ideally you should so those three things done TOMORROW!!

 

just click the black links for the CCA/CPR

 

DONT sign either of the two letters

leave the £1PO BLANK and uncrossed.

 

 

if you don't then you risk getting a CCJ by default...

[JackF]

never done this and am really scared, I

don't even where to begin if someone could help me that'd be great, skype or something?

 

Hopefully I can get this done by today, as today is the only day I am off from work this week.

[dx100uk]

Follow my post

Everyone else manages it

[JackF]

I'm extremely stupid when it comes to things like this. :s

 

I even tried to log in to the MCOL website but it wont let me and says incorrect claim number.

 

 

I've called them and they've said that since you can access online, they'll send me a form for me to fill in, and she was asking me over the phone if it's a defence of admit.

 

 

I told her it was a defence, hopefully that's what I was meant to say, I'm so nervous when it comes to things like this.

Have you registered yet, so you can log onto the MCOL site ?

 

If not that might be the problem ?

[JackF]

They sent me a form over the emai.

[unclebulgaria67]

Suggest you have a cup of tea to calm your anxiety and come back to this.

 

They just sent you a form by email, because you said you had problems online.

[JackF]

She told me there'd be instructions how to fill it out. And she sent me a form..

.. I specifically told her as well, I do not have a printer,

please send a copy or reset password. And she said, It'd be done in the email.

[JackF]

Okay, now, recalled them and just got off the phone they've told me that I can literally write up the defence in the body of the email, and it should be fine. But the problem is I'm not sure how to defend it. That's where I need the help.

I hope I've said the right thing by saying I need to defend the claim. And do I need to get a solicitor?

[AndyOrch]

What you need to do Jack is to start reading other threads (as you have only ever looked at 4 threads ...3 today since you joined) and you will already know all the answers to the problems you are encountering.

 

This is a self help forum..yes we will guide you but you have to put a little leg work in also...we simply do not have time to spoon feed you.

 

Regards

You don't need to enter your defence now as you have only just received the court claim.

 

All you have to do is acknowledge receipt of the court claim.

 

Do you understand this ?

[JackF]

I actually do not understand.

I can't access the online MCOL, so they've sent me an email for me to write up a defence,

so do I need to write that up or do I need to do something else?

[JackF]

You don't need to enter your defence now as you have only just received the court claim.

 

All you have to do is acknowledge receipt of the court claim.

 

Do you understand this ?

 

Okay, I guess, I've acknowledge the claim form.

 

What is the next step,

 

I am incredibly sorry in advance If I am demanding or anything else.

 

I just need to get this done, and I am really upset about other things that are currently going on,

and I just want to get this resolved asap,

 

I can tick the boxes one by one.

 

Not asking for empathy either I thought I'd just put it out there.

 

And for those who are helping.

I love you guys so much,

and I really do appreciate you helping me

and having patients.

[unclebulgaria67]

How have you acknowledged the claim ?

[dx100uk]

So have you got mcol working yet please?

Let's go one step at a time

[JackF]

No MCOL does not seem to work, the password seems to be wrong at all times,

and I even called them up and have asked them to reset the password,

but they've told me rather then that just send the defence via email.

These guys over the phone aren't helpful at all.

[dx100uk]

Not time for defence yet

You need to back the claim first!

 

When you go on mcol

Are you clicking

Register as an individual user

Then popping in your email

Then getting the long passcode

Then using those to log in

Then select AOS respond to a claim

Then use the claim form number & password

 

You have to Register first

Then log in

Then select AOS

[JackF]

Yes this is exactly what I did.

But it doesn't go the next page,

like from when you put the details on the box "Respond to claim made against you"

Filled it out with details, and says it's incorrect every time.

 

 

I double checked, multiple times, and still no luck. That's why.
