    • Thank-you dx, What you have written is certainly helpful to my understanding. The only thing I would say, what I found to be most worrying and led me to start this discussion is, I believe the judge did not merely admonish the defendant in the case in question, but used that point to dismiss the case in the claimants favour. To me, and I don't have your experience or knowledge, that is somewhat troubling. Again, the caveat being that we don't know exactly what went on but I think we can infer the reason for the judgement. Thank-you for your feedback. EDIT: I guess that the case I refer to is only one case and it may never happen again and the strategy not to appeal is still the best strategy even in this event, but I really did find the outcome of that case, not only extremely annoying but also worrying. Let's hope other judges are not quite so narrow minded and don't get fixated on one particular issue as FTMDave alluded to.

    • the claimant in their WS can refer to whatever previous CC judgements they like, as we do in our WS's, but CC judgements do not set a legal precedence. however, they do often refer to judgements like Bevis, those cases do created a precedence as they were court of appeal rulings. as for if the defendant, prior to the raising of a claim, dobbed themselves in as the driver in writing during any appeal to the PPC, i don't think we've seen one case whereby the claimant referred to such in their WS.. ?? but they certainly typically include said appeal letters in their exhibits. i certainly dont think it's a good idea to 'remind' them of such at the defence stage, even if the defendant did admit such in a written appeal. i would further go as far to say, that could be even more damaging to the whole case than a judge admonishing a defendant for not appealing to the PPC in the 1st place. it sort of blows the defendant out the water before the judge reads anything else. dx

    • 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.

Hi all,

 

I followed the instructions from another thread I have going and sent the CCA request back to Cabot and they have responded. At the same time I sent a IRL to HSBC and I have the responses back from both parties that I'll post up here.

 

Complaint Letter to HSBC - their response

CCA Response from Cabot + the CCA

 

Hope there's still something to be done.

 

Thanks.

Steve.

I was with RBS. I was a student back in late 1980s. I ran up a £3.5K o/d. Could not afford to pay it back (I have Serial Startup Personality Disorder). I said that they had 'fined' me more than my overdraft in over twenty years, and that I was not prepared to engage with them anymore. They eventually gave up. Premise is: you cannot get blood out of a stone. 

Do not be scared by these people. They are just trying to run their business model, and as long as you have not made any untrue statements, you are morally and legally in the clear. This is just my opinion, and may not be legally binding.

@BazzaS No.. :) Just that I like to make new ideas work, but have yet to get good at making money out of them! The ideas have worked, and I am now on my sixth startup. I didn't consider contract law in the past though. I have learned my lesson!

Anyone able to update me on proper procedure here?

I have now received another letter from cabot asking me to setup a payment plan.

As you can see from the 1st post, all the current correspondence has been done.

 

Cabot sent back a reconstructed CCA and HSBC have ignored my complaint by stating they sold it to Cabot and don't believe that they mis-sold me a credit card.

 

So where do I go from here?

 

Thanks.

might be an idea to write to cabot and tell them the card debt is under a serious complaint with HSBC that is being investigated by the FOS??

and itr should not have been sold on whilst under dispute.

Ok thanks.

 

Although to be fair, HSBC had already sold the debt to Cabot by the time I raised the IRC with HSBC... even though, I will still tel cabot there is an ongoing complaint with the FOS.

Hi,

 

I have received the response from the Ombudsman, so what next?:

 

Your complaint about HSBC UK Bank Plc

 

I’d like to take the opportunity to thank you for your continued patience whilst I’ve been looking at this complain for you.

I’m an investigator here at the Financial Ombudsman service. My role is to consider all the information both parties have sent me and independently investigate the complaint to see if the business has treated you fairly.

 

After carefully reviewing all the evidence available to me, I don't think that HSBC have done anything wrong, therefore I won't be asking them to do anything. I know this may come as a disappointment to you but I'm hoping my email to you will explain my reasons why.  

 

My understanding of this complaint

You took a credit card with HSBC in November 2016.

By the notes it looks like you were requesting to transfer an existing credit card balance with Vanquis to the new card.

 

The main complaint points you've raised are;

You don't feel the correct affordability checks were carried out to ensure you could afford the credit because of this you feel you've been treated unfairly

 

My investigation

I've checked the details from the point of application to ensure that HSBC acted with diligent care before considering you for a credit card. 

 

I would expect HSBC to carry out an assessment of your circumstances at the time which would mean carrying out a credit search under your name and address which they did. If anything was flagged to show that you had any defaults, large balances with no commitment to pay them off or was applying for credit on a regular basis, then I'm sure the card wouldn't have been accepted. 

 

You applied for the credit card online which would suggest that an HSBC sales advisor wasn't involved in the sale of your card. However, someone from HSBC contacted you after the card was approved to ensure that you would be comfortable with the £2000 credit limit. 

 

I'm aware that people's circumstances can often change from when the lending was taken out. It would be the responsibility of the customer to contact their lender and explain their financial position if this has changed. In any case, I would expect a lender to deal with their customer sympathetically and positively when they do become aware of any financial difficulties and work together to find suitable solutions which are affordable.

 

You've said that HSBC have been in contact with you to collect the debt owing.  I have contacted HSBC about this and they've said if you're not happy about them pursuing you for the debt, you will need to raise this as a separate complaint to them. 

 

Next steps

 

I think this is a fair outcome in the circumstances, for the reasons I’ve explained.

But if you decide that you don't accept what I’ve said, then please let me know by 17 January 2020.

 

If I can’t resolve things then an ombudsman here can look at everything again and make a final decision.

If I don’t hear from you by that date we might not be able to look at your complaint again.

Update:

 

This account has now been moved to Robinson Way who are now asking me for money that I don't have. No initial letter to say we are the new account holders, no letter from Cabot to say they had sold it.

Any ideas where I now stand?

 

Their letter:

 

We know you might be worried about the Coronavirus (COVID-19) and how your finances may be affected during this rapidly changing time. So we wanted to remind you that we're here to help and there are options available to you for support.

 

Little blurb about how to manage my account online

 

Blurb about change in circumstances and to notify them.

 

Nothing about taking ownership/charge of the account from Cabot.

 

PS. Been given my three months notice so will also be unemployed by the end of Aug. Yay!

PS. Just received a voicemail from Cabot chasing this debt. Asking me to contact them etc etc. Still no written comms. Once I receive something, I'll update. In the meantime, if the FOS have come back and rejected my complaint and cabot can produce an 'online' CCA where do I stand?
