    • Paper trail off the original creditor often confirms the default and issue of a notice...not having or being able to disclose the actual copy or being able to produce a copy less so. Creditors are not compelled to keep copies of the actual default notice so you will in most cases get a reconstituted version but must contain accurate figures/dates/format.     .    
    • Including Default Notice Andy? Ok, I think this is the best I can do.. it all makes sense with references to their WS. They have included exhibits that dates don't match the WS about them, small but still.. if you're going to reference letters giving dates, then the exhibits should be correct, no? I know I redacted them too much, but one of the dates differs to the WS by a few months. IN THE ******** County Court Claim No. [***] BETWEEN: LC Asset 2 S.A.R.L CLAIMANT AND [***] DEFENDANT ************ _________________________ ________ WITNESS STATEMENT OF [***] _________________________ ________ I, [***], being the Defendant in this case will state as follows; I make this Witness Statement in support of my defence in this claim. 1. I understand that the claimant is an Assignee, a buyer of defunct or bad debts, which are bought on mass portfolios at a much-reduced cost to the amount claimed and which the original creditors have already written off as a capital loss and claimed against taxable income as confirmed in the claimant’s witness statement exhibit by way of the Deed of Assignment. As an assignee or creditor as defined in section 189 of the CCA this applies to this new requirement on assignment of rights. This means that when an assignee purchases debts (or otherwise acquires rights under a credit agreement) it also acquires certain obligations to the borrower including the duty to comply with CCA requirements (such as the rules on statements and notices and other post-contractual information). The assignee becomes the creditor under the agreement. This ensures that essential consumer protections under the CCA cannot be circumvented by assigning the debt to a third party. 2. The Claim relates to an alleged Credit Card agreement between the Defendant and Bank of Scotland plc. Save insofar of any admittance it is accepted that the Defendant has had contractual agreements with Bank of Scotland plc in the past, the Defendant is unaware as to what alleged debt the Claimant refers. 3. The Defendant requested a copy of the CCA on the 24/12/2022 along with the standard fee of £1.00 postal order, to which the defendant received a reply from the Claimant dated 06/02/2023. To this date, the Claimant has failed to disclose a valid agreement and proof as per their claim that this is enforceable, that Default Notice and Notice of Assignment were sent to and received by the Defendant, on which their claim relies. The Claimant is put to strict proof to verify and confirm that the exhibit *** is a true copy of the agreement and are the true Terms and Conditions as issued at the time of inception of the online application and execution of the agreement. 4. Point 3 is noted. The Claimant pleads that a default notice has been served upon the defendant as evidenced by Exhibit [***]. The claimant is put to strict proof to verify the service of the above in accordance with s136 and s196 Law of Property Act 1925. 5. Point 6 is noted and disputed. The Defendant cannot recall ever having received the notice of assignment as evidenced in the exhibit marked ***. The claimant is put to strict proof to verify the service of the above in accordance with s136 and s196 Law of Property Act 1925. 6. Point 11 is noted and disputed. See 3. 7. Point 12 is noted, the Defendant doesn’t recall receiving contact where documentation is provided as per the Claimants obligations under CCA. In addition, the Claimant pleads letters were sent on dates given, yet those are not the letters evidenced in their exhibits *** 8. Point 13 is noted and denied. Claimant is put to strict proof to prove allegations. 9. The Claimant did not provide a true copy of the CCA in response to the Defendants request of 24/12/2022. The Claimant further claims that the documents are sufficient to pursue a Judgement and are therefore copies of original documents in their possession. Conclusion 10. Without the Claimant providing a valid true copy of the executed Credit agreement that complies with the CCA, the Claimant has no grounds on which to enforce this alleged debt. 11. The Defendant was not given ample evidence to prove the debt and therefore was not required to enter settlement negotiations. Should the debt be proved in the future, the Defendant is willing to enter such negotiations with the Claimant. On receipt of this claim I could not recall the precise details of the agreement or any debt and sought clarity from the claimant by way of a Section 78 request. The Claimant failed to comply. I can only assume as this was due to the Claimant not having any enforceable documentation and issuing a claim in hope of an undefended default judgment.   Statement of Truth I, ********, the Defendant, believe the facts stated within this Witness Statement to be 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 it’s truth. Signed: _________________________ _______ Dated: _____________________
    • AMEX and TSB the 2 Creditors who you need to worry about the least, ever!  Just stop paying them and forget about it, ignore all their threat o gram letters.  Only if, and with these 2 it's a massive if, you end up with a claim form you need to respond, and there will be plenty of help here.
    • No, nothing from Barclays. Turns out i have 2 accounts on here, and i posted originally on the other one. Sorry about that.  
    • Always send with proof of posting from your Post Office, so there is a trail. Conversations , are designed to intimidate into paying, Emails are designed as another way of bombarding. Only EVER communicate in writing, by post.

    • 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.

might be worth finding the original council planning permission as bet parking is not limited to one hour when granted originally and no-one can change that

least of all a powerless PPC.

If the time limit isn't in the original planning documents, does that mean that they can't enforce the 1hr time limit?

 

Could someone point me to some reading that I could inform myself with?

 

I've been searching the Sheffield planning portal with the search terms of "vcs", "excel" and "marys gate" and I can't find any application in relation to signage in the car park

This was many years ago. The planning documenta for this site are not online but they are available at sheffield city council offices by appointment

 

However none of the above has any effect on signage acceptance, offer, performance in this case so i would not personally waste your time but you are of course free to go to the council offices.

HB sorry i did type out a reply on my phone earlier but it didnt post

 

Well given the situation D is in, i would initially get in contact with the land agent/business/land owner and see what their initial response is to see if they can get the claim withdrawn.

Social media can help

 

If that didnt work then i have very successfully got Court Claims withdrawn from the likes of Parking Eye To CarFlow Ltd by threatening to involve the landowner.  

 

Now this takes a large amount of outrageous bluff, but (and this is case specific)  threatening the use of a witness summons (ok would need a witness summary on application, but again this is just bluff) to force the attendant of a site employee etc  to appear at a county court hearing works wonders on many occasions (if the case warrants it)

so an even bigger gamble than sticking to the 2 or 3 line defence used here then...

Okay I have the document, not sure I should shared publicly(?), so what's the best way for me to share

 

ok to publish here 

use pdf

 

Seems to have very new owners

 

 

For reference, I believe the carpark to be within the red outline on the document, outside the front of the pink shaded building, kind of where it shows a wide Ellin Street. 

 

Here is the carpark from google maps (https://www.google.com/maps/@53.3734665,-1.4745247,127m/data=!3m1!1e3)

 

 

the same view without satellite view on:

phone the Nottingham office of the Lnad Registry and ask them who the previous owners were as this is normally on the docs so you are entitled to ask.

The company that owns it now is just a front co for someone else, like the 25 others with a similar name, usually overseas investors but it i listed as non trading so VCS cant have a legal contract with them

Will do that today when I get into work and report back here

 

Just spoke to them on the phone, they said that any documents requested online will show the title deeds as they currently stand. to find historic documents/previous owners I need to fill out the £7 postal application. Should I proceed with that?

 

I'm aware that the request for this document will probably take quite a long time between sending of the form and actually receiving it, so is this a path worth pursuing?

disclosure stage could be weeks away yet.

also, you can pay for stuff over the phone and get it posted. I have never suffered a delay when doing so and I am also surprised that the person taking your call wasnt more helpful. Perhaps times ahve changed and it is all about the money money money

Hoping to happen?

 

This WILL 99.9% go to a hearing, this being VCS it doesnt matter where in the country they will send reps to attend a hearing. (unlike certainly companies if you use an address for service many miles away they will discontinue)  So you will certainly end up at a hearing (if Sheffield is your local court your are looking at December at the earliest looking at how cases are being booked at the moment

 

Defence wise, keep it concise.  your defence points will (as you outed yourself as the driver) will rest on landowner/contractual authority and signage, although knowing this site thats not really a strong argument

 

Also the £60 add on charge can be argued as an abuse of process.  claims have started to be kicked out because of this, although this is now subject to an appeal in the coming months

Was meaning are we hoping to have VCS withdraw it before it reaches a hearing.

 

Could you explain the £60 add on thing? Have just been reading about the case you mentioned before however I don't see anything about addons.

 

I know live in London, so Sheffield is not my local court. Do I have to attend, or do I just submit my defence and it'll get decided on the day and I'll be notified?

No you MUST attend, it will get allocated to your local london court, if you work, it may or may not be easier to select the county court to your work place, when you get an "allocation questionnaire"  (if you want it by your work place, then put the court name down and why, if your home court then just state the closest court to your home

 

London courts you will be looking end of January at the earliest

 

VCS will NOT withdraw this case.
