    • In terms of "why didn't I make a claim" - well, that has to be understood in the context of the long-standing legal battle and all its permuations with the shark. In essence there was a repo and probable fire sale of the leasehold property - which would have led to me initiating the complaint/ claim v SPF in summer 19. But there was no quick sale. And battle commenced and it ain't done yet 5y later. A potential sale morphed into trying to do a debt deal and then into a full blown battle heading to trial - based on the shark deliberately racking up costs just so the ceo can keep the property for himself.  Along the way they have launched claims in 4 different counties -v- me - trying to get a backdoor B. (Haven't yet succeeded) Simultaneously I got dragged into a contentious forfeiture claim and then into a lease extension debacle - both of which lasted 3y. (I have an association with the freeholders and handled all that legal stuff too) I had some (friend paid for) legal support to begin with.  But mostly I have handled every thing alone.  The sheer weight of all the different cases has been pretty overwhelming. And tedious.  I'm battling an aggressive financial shark that has investors giving them 00s of millions. They've employed teams of expensive lawyers and barristers. And also got juniors doing the boring menial tasks. And, of course, in text book style they've delayed issues on purpose and then sent 000's of docs to read at the 11th hour. Which I not only boringly did read,  but also simultaneously filed for ease of reference later - which has come in very handy in speeding up collating legal bundles and being able to find evidence quickly.  It's also how I found out the damning stuff I could use -v- them.  Bottom line - I haven't really had a moment to breath for 5y. I've had to write a statement recently. And asked a clinic for advice. One of the volunteers asked how I got into this situation.  Which prompted me to say it all started when I got bad advice from a broker. Which kick-started me in to thinking I really should look into making some kind of formal complaint -v- the broker.  Which is where I am now.  Extenuating circumstances as to why I'm complaining so late.  But hopefully still in time ??

    • 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.

In 2004 I defaulted on a loan with Welcome Finance after I became disabled.

 

they sold the £2635 debt to Cabot.

I had other loans previous to this with Welcome and these were paid off or transferred to their next loan.

 

I recently applied to them with a PPI claim to which they agreed to pay back one of the loans but as for the one they sold to Cabot they said they had been in touch with Cabot and the account was still live and therefore they would buy back the debt and apply the PPI to the outstanding balance.

 

I have never been in touch with Welcome or Cabot since 2004 and I believe it would be statute barred in any case.

 

Of course the one PPI they plan to pay back is the lesser amount one and the larger PPI amount is for the one they sold on.

 

Not convinced that Welcome have been in touch with Cabot nor am I convinced the account with Cabot would still be open but I am no expert so I may be wrong. To be honest I do not trust anything that Welcome Finance tell me.

 

Any advice would be most welcome ( pardon the pun)

what date is the loan they are looking to off set against

and is this the FSCS you are dealing with?

 

yes they can by back and offset

it being SB'd has no bearing in E&W.

no that's the way to do it.

 

then for that date sadly they can offset

 

what about all the others?

if you had a chain of refinance then it only takes ONE loan to have PPI and that runs thru them all

getting more int and PPI added each time

 

did you send them an sar?

One point though.

 

I have only been communicating with Welcome via email and they do not have my current address.

 

Requesting a SAR via email is fine but I doubt if they would wish to email back with a ton of data and therefore it would probably have to be sent via post.

 

As this debt is 14 years old and bearing in mind they say the account is active with Cabot is there any danger they might try to come after me for the debt?

you should never NOT inform your creditors of your correct address

outside of 6yrs or not.

you run the risk of a backdoor CCJ.

 

so read the sar and its posts and follow the guideline regarding old addresses there and what to do.

 

send the SR by 1st class post, get free proof of posting from any PO counter

All I can see under the SAR template is this

ull Subject Access Request under the new GDPR 2018 regime

tips for a successful SARicon......

 

you MUST sign the SAR.

 

if you have moved since taking out 'whatever' you are sending the SAR for

you should include a list of your addresses from the time of taking out the 'whatever'

 

and if you have moved

its worth including a copy of your current CTAX bill

to prove who and where you are now.

 

an SAR always goes to the original creditor

regardless to if the debt has been sold to a no powers debt collectionicon agency

 

 

It is saying to give all the addresses that I have lived at since taking out the loan. Not sure how to get around this. Can I give them a relatives address for them to send the SAR Info back to me?

Ah sorry I read your post incorrectly - I thought you said "you should NOT inform your creditors of your correct address" where in fact you said "you should never NOT inform your creditors of your correct address" my apologies. I will get it sorted now
