    • Thanks for that. I will give them till Tuesday. Thanks for your help, very much appreciated. 
    • Ok thanks for that, well spotted and all duly noted. Yes they did eventually submit those docs to me after a second letter advising them I was contacting the ICO to make a formal complaint for failing to comply with an earlier SAR that they brushed off as an "administrative error" or something. When I sent the letter telling them I was in contact with the information commissioner to lodge the complaint, the original PCN etc quickly followed along with their excuse!
    • its not about the migrants .. Barrister Helena Kennedy warns that the Conservatives will use their victory over Rwanda to dismantle the law that protects our human rights here in the UK.   Angela Rayner made fun of Rishi Sunak’s height in a fiery exchange at Prime Minister’s Questions, which prompted Joe Murphy to ask: just how low will Labour go? .. well .. not as low as sunak 
    • From #38 where you wrote the following, all in the 3rd person so we don't know which party is you. When you sy it was your family home, was that before or after? " A FH split to create 2 Leasehold adjoining houses (terrace) FH remains under original ownership and 1 Leasehold house sold on 100y+ lease. . Freeholder resides in the other Leasehold house. The property was originally resided in as one house by Freeholder"
    • The property was our family home.  A fixed low rate btl/ development loan was given (last century!). It was derelict. Did it up/ was rented out for a while.  Then moved in/out over the years (mostly around school)  It was a mix of rental and family home. The ad-hoc rents covered the loan amply.  Nowadays  banks don't allow such a mix.  (I have written this before.) Problems started when the lease was extended and needed to re-mortgage to cover the expense.  Wanted another btl.  Got a tenant in situ. Was located elsewhere (work). A broker found a btl lender, they reneged.  Broker didn't find another btl loan.  The tenant was paying enough to cover the proposed annual btl mortgage in 4 months. The broker gave up trying to find another.  I ended up on a bridge and this disastrous path.  (I have raised previous issues about the broker) Not sure what you mean by 'split'.  The property was always leasehold with a separate freeholder  The freeholder eventually sold the fh to another entity by private agreement (the trust) but it's always been separate.  That's quite normal.  One can't merge titles - unless lease runs out/ is forfeited and new one is not created/ granted. The bridge lender had a special condition in loan offer - their own lawyer had to check title first.  Check that lease wasn't onerous and there was nothing that would affect good saleability.  The lawyer (that got sacked for dishonesty) signed off the loan on the basis the lease and title was good and clean.  The same law firm then tried to complain the lease clauses were onerous and the lease too short, even though the loan was to cover a 90y lease extension!!

    • 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.

Hello

 

BWlegal has sent a letter dated 14th August 2017 requesting a final payment from me.

 

I see that the debt they refer to is a closed account on my credit file and the last record on the credit file was from T/A Payday Express, (and recorded by them) showing as 'satisfied ' default assigned in January 2017.

 

I have not paid any monies toward the debt which had a default registered from 2013 until January 2017.

There have been no default notices recorded after January 2017.

 

I have letters from Payday Express and Prac dated April 2017 saying the debt was assigned in December 2016 to Prac who use BWlegal.

 

I hope the above is not too confusing, I do want to resolve the issue but is bwlegal entitled to be asking for payments from me?

 

Look forward to your responses

its what debt buyers do

try and fleece you

 

so PDE sold Prac the debt in jan 2017.

 

don't get what you mean by a satisfied default..

 

if a debt is sold by the original creditor

they will zero the balance and mark it in their books as satisfied

however the balance has been sold on to the debt buyer for 10p=£1

and they will chase you for the full amount owing

you're just lucky they haven't updated the credit files yet.

 

was this your only PDL?

was your credit file already shot at that period?

Yes.

 

On my noddle account it shows closed accounts and there is a monthly record of 'D' in a red circle and under the circle it shows 'DF', (Default , when you hover online on the D) . In January the message under D is DA which I am assuming means 'debt assigned'

Thank you dx100

 

I have read the step by step guide.

 

I think I have to send a dsar to Payday express .

 

I can let bwlegal know this if they send a letter of claim.

 

I think my complaint to bwlegal /prac are the delays in letting me know who owns the debt .

That bwlegal/ prac have not recorded defaults on my credit file.

 

Could one of my arguments in a complaint be that I only pay the value that bwlegal /prac bought the debt for?

original creditor IS who lent you the money

PRAC are a debt buyer

BW Legal are brain dead solicitors for hire

actually they are quite useless in most of what they do.

and you don't deal with them anyway

 

 

9/10 it use of letterheads only in the printer

oh and they cant default you

only the original creditor can

other than marking your calendar which is meaningless anyway

 

 

deal with the debt owner or the OC for the IRL complaint

Hi hope you can help

I have just received a response to a sb letter I sent to PRA Group in Nov 2018. Should I be getting the following correspondence from them?

They have replied with a letter dated 10 days after my sb letter to them as follows:

My current address

Dear xxxxx

 

Reference : xxxx

I write with regards to your recent correspondence regarding the above referenced account.

The sb letter I sent to PRA group has been retuned together with the letter above in the same envelope.

PRA group called my mobile this morning but I ignored it and didn't answer because the number was unrecognisable at the time. I later googled it and found out that the number calling me was PRA group.

Look forward to your response and thanks in advance.

Remember, you havent requested anything. You have informed them of the status of the account.
