Defence

 

The Defendant contends that the particulars of claim are vague and generic in nature. The Defendant accordingly sets out its case below and relies on CPR r 16.5 (3) in relation to any particular allegation to which a specific response has not been made.

 

 

Paragraph 1 is denied with regards to the defendant entering into an agreement referred to in the Particulars of Claim (‘the Agreement’) the Claimant has yet to disclose any such agreement.

 

 

Paragraph 2 is denied with regards to the Defendant owing any monies to the Claimant the claimant has failed to provide any evidence of the termination/ assignment/breach/balance as requested by CPR 31.14 on the XX March2017 as acknowledged by the letter received on the xxMarch by the Claimants Solicitors. The Claimant is put to strict proof to: (Question here they have supplied me with the copy of the assignment do I leave it or remove it marked red I have added termination notice)

 

Paragraph 3 is denied. The Defendant does not recall receiving notice of the debt being legally assigned to the Claimant. As per Civil Procedure Rule 16.5(4), it is expected that the Claimant prove the allegation that the money is owed.

 

(a) show how the Defendant has entered into an agreement; and

(b) show how the Defendant has reached the amount claimed for, and;

© show how the Claimant has the legal right, either under statute or equity to issue a claim

 

 

Alternatively, if the Claimant is an assignee of a debt, it is denied that the Claimant has the right to lay a claim due to contraventions of Section 136 of the Law of Property Act and Section 82A of the consumer credit act Act 1974.

 

Notwithstanding the above should the alleged amount claimed include an early termination charge(s) amounting to the entire balance of the remaining contract. OFCOM guidance states that any Early Termination Charge that is made up of the entire balance if the remaining contract is unlikely to be fair as it fails to take into account the fact that the provider no longer has to provide and pay for their service.

 

By reason of the facts and matters set out above, it is denied that the Claimant is entitled to the relief claimed or any relief.

 

I believe the facts stated in this claim are true

[AndyOrch]

You cant deny entering the agreement..there are 3 pages here that state otherwise ?

 

Just because the claimant has or cant disclose any agreement is not a reason to deny entering into the agreement.

[mystirio]

would this be a better line to take

The claim is denied with regards to an amount due under an agreement. The Claimant has failed to disclose any agreement or statements on which its claim relies upon.

[dx100uk]

why not use the alternative..I have in the past had financial dealing with..but do not recognise this particular account

 

look at OTHER defences too, you can mix n match lines

[AndyOrch]

Not really...the claimant is not at liberty to disclose any documents until after you submit a defence.

 

The process....

 

Claim

 

Defence

 

Allocation

 

Disclosure and evidence.

[mystirio]

paragraph 1 i have had financial dealings with orange in the past however i cannot recall this account(agreement) and as yet the claimant has yet to supply me with a copy of the Account/Agreement mentioned in Paticulars of claim

 

does this sound better not very good on this sorry

 

thanks andy i will study the other cases and work a plan out

 

can i ask a question regarding documents if i was to recieve a letter of assigment from orange as the copy i have here would it not be on offical orange headed paper and secondly would the person who signed it in unreadable form put his printed name and tile of job down on it I AM not for one minute thinking someone else has done this

 

trying again

 

1.The defendant entered into an agreement with orange under account ref xxxxx (the Agreement).

2.The defendant failed to maintain the required payment and the service was terminated.

3.The Agreement was later assigned to the Claimant on the xxxxxxxand notice given to the defendant. Despite repeated request for payment the sum of £xxxxxx remains due and outstanding.

 

And the claimant claims

a)The said sum of xxxxxx

b)Interest pursuant to s69 of the County Courts act 1984at the rate of 8% per annum from the date of assignment to the date of issue of these accruing a daily rate of xxxx but limited to one year,being xxxxx

c) Costs

 

Defence

 

The Defendant contends that the particulars of claim are vague and generic in nature. The Defendant accordingly sets out its case below and relies on CPR r 16.5 (3) in relation to any particular allegation to which a specific response has not been made.

 

1. It is agreed that a relationship did exist between the Defendant and Orange however, I cannot recall this account (Agreement) and has yet to supply me with a copy of the Account/Agreement mentioned in particulars of Claim.
   
2. The defendant denies being served with notice of termination of service.
   
3. The defendant is unaware of any legal notice of assignment or Notice of Assignment pursuant to Law and property Act 1925 Section 136(1).
    
   Therefore the defendant denies owing any money to the Claimant and the claimant is put to strict proof ,
   

 

1. Show how the Defendant has entered into an Agreement.
   
2. Show how the Defendant has reached the amount claimed for.
   
3. Show how the Claimant has legal right ,either under statue or equity to issue a claim.
   
4. Put to strict proof to provided in writing signed by the assignor at time of alleged Assignment.
   

As per Civil Procedure Rule 16.5(4) it is expected that the Claimant prove the allegation that the money is owed; having been provided with written requests for information under CPR 31.14 and to date have failed to provide any such documentation as detailed on the particulars of claim.

 

Notwithstanding the above should the alleged amount claimed include an early termination charge(s) amounting to the entire balance of the remaining contract. OFCOM guidance states that any Early Termination Charge that is made up of the entire balance if the remaining contract is unlikely to be fair as it fails to take into account the fact that the provider no longer has to provide and pay for their service.

 

On the alternative, if the Claimant is an assignee of a debt, it is denied that the Claimant has the right to lay a claim due to contraventions of Section 136 of the Law of Property Act 1925.

2.Paragraph 3 is denied .The defendant is unaware of any legal notice of assignment or Notice of Assignment pursuant to Law and property Act 1925 Section 136(1).
