    • Yeah I figured, unlikely I'll need credit anyway mortgage all paid off etc so I'll take that on the chin and learn from the experience. Probably would've beaten that too had I remembered the protocol, first time ever going through the process though sob it wasn't familiar to me  Oh well  
    • This is my slightly amended WS taking on board your previous comments, any suggestions for amendments would be most appreciated.  Thank you for you time.   1.        I am the Defendant in this matter. 2.        The facts in this statement come from my personal knowledge. 3.        I became aware of original Judgement following a routine credit check on or around 14th September 2020. 4.        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. 5.        The Judgement debt was not familiar to me so I began investigations to ascertain what the debt related to and how such a figure had been equated in any event. 6.        I made immediate contact with the Court, the Claimant Solicitors and the Claimants thereafter, asking them to provide me with a copy of the original loan agreement but this was not provided to me.  7.        I sent a Data Subject access Request to Barclays but no agreement was provided – See appendix 1 which details the timeline of communication between myself and Barclaycard as well as copies of correspondence between us. 8.        I do not admit to entering an agreement with Barclaycard in 2000. 9.       The claimant has failed to comply with the additional directions ordered by District Judge Davis and therefore this claim should be automatically struck out.  10.    The claimants have failed to disclose a true executed copy of the original agreement they refer to within the particulars of this claim. They are not entitled to enforce the agreement pursuant to section 78.6 (a) of the Credit Consumer Act 1974 12.   The reconstituted standard Barclaycard agreement that the claimant has included in the court bundle does not satisfy any CCA request and so the claimant is and remains in default of my CCA request and therefore unable to enforce the alleged agreement. 13.  The claimants have failed to provide proof the assignment, such as a deed of assignment. 14.  The claimant has failed to provide a statement of account setting out how the alleged debt accrued under that agreement 15.   Despite numerous requests to the claimant, I have still not seen any evidence, such as an original agreement or deed of assignment, that substantiates the claimant’s assertion that I owe the debt to the claimant, nor evidence of how the debt was accrued. 16.   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. 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.
    • A set aside application costs £275 which is more than the judgement so not worth it. Not that they would grant a set aside anyway.  Set asides are granted, for example, to people who moved and didn't get the court papers, so have a genuine reason for not defending.  Forgetting doesn't count. Your only choices are to pay up within 30 days, or defy the court and not pay.  If the latter, we've never seen a PPC enforce judgement for a single ticket, ever, you would get away without paying - but you would have a CCJ and a knackered credit file for six years.

    • 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.

Thank you sooo much dx i was getting panicky for a minute!

 

That makes much more sense

 

- one question about the spreadsheets i did,

i have the Compound Int and the Statutory Int and now due to the amount of time elapsed the total is well over £8k :shock:

- do you think that sounds right or have i cocked it up somewhere maybe?

 

I'm so grateful for your replies i really am,

and so thankful i came on and commented again

 

- i was so tempted to just add the letter to the rest of the pile!!!

 

Thank the Lord i didn't

- sounds like this is one i need to reply to...

the CISHEET should already have a claim to date from before, that remains the same.

 

the statint sheet should show todays date in the claim to box [it increments auto] so resave it before you print it

 

 

attach both to the reply form

 

 

ensure all paperwork has their ref number on it too

Hi again,

sorry to be a pain!

I don't know it makes a difference on the wording but when i am completing Box D 'I dispute the debt'

 

i write 'the balance is solely made up of penalty charges,

do i need to say plus interest?

 

As the debt itself is £1000,

the penalty charges total £750

but the stat int and compound int total £8k since 2009...

 

i.e. I didnt want them to say i was making an incorrect statement if you know what I mean. Or i am worrying over nothing?

 

Thank you as always

Try not to get side tracked with this as it will be irrelevant to Lowell...and they will probably still issue a claim.

 

I think a simple reason as to why you dispute it is enough without attaching spread sheets.

Me again!! Do i need to add this text on also (to box D) the debt purchaser has yet to provide any or all of the required documentation, and then add the bit about my penalty charges onto the end?

 

Also do i send the CCA request to the same place as the reply form? as they seem to be dealing with it all now? (they letter says they are acting for Lowell Portfolio) - or do i need to send that direct to Lowell Portfolio?

 

Sorry for so many Q's :-( promise this will be it ..... (maybe!!)

Hi all,

Just a quick update.

 

I received a letter to say they are compiling their information in line with the pre action protocol.

 

I have also received a letter from a really old debt stating that they have now confirmed where we live (from Lowell - via Cabot), it's an old bank account debt which was bought by Cabot some years ago and we have heard nothing for years, I be sure how many years exactly but i can't recall making a payment for 7-8 years at least let alone communicating with them.

 

I guess now Lowell have linked the account they think they will go for money!!

It doesn't show on hubby's credit record

- is there anything we should do to find out how long it was since we last made payment?

 

I don't know if it makes any difference but the original Lowell account (Re the update) is now showing as a closed account on Clearscore.

Does that mean anything significant? That was from June 2018...

 

Thank you all
