    • a chargeback via a paypal account used in an ebay sale doesn't usually result in funds being sucked from your bank account,  just that you attain a paypal negative balance. as you saying the money was taken by paypal from your bank account without you authorising this? or is it directly the buyers name that is shown? regarding the chargeback but either way you bank account HAS been debited? dx  
    • what solicitor is the PAPLOC from? then just search xxxx snotty letter dx  
    • moved to the debt self help forum. plenty of like threads here to read along with the ones you've done so far..good work. last thing you ever want to do is look at any kind of IVO/BK or anything alike concerning consumer debt, never do that, turns unsecured debts into secured ones in many instances. your best bet for now is p'haps looks at  Options for dealing with your debts: Breathing Space (Debt Respite Scheme) - GOV.UK (www.gov.uk) sadly you have to go thru one of the free debt charities to invoke that but DON'T be tempted to also open up a DMP with them, just get the Breathing Space done. get that in place that gives you at leasy 60 days buffer you've also goto to realise you'll probably get a default once breathing space is in place, bit if not it might pay you to withhold payments even after BS then p'haps re start payments once a DN for each debt is issued and registered. at least that way, whatever happens in 6yrs the debt will drop off dx  
    • Hello, I am a private seller and recently sold a pair of trainers on eBay.  Everything seemed fine until just after the eBay 30 day mbg had expired.  The buyer contacted me with photos showing me that both shoes had ripped.  He wanted his money back, and after refusing to refund him, he then left me retaliatory and defamatory feedback on my profile to the effect that I had sold him fake trainers (this was removed by eBay).  He then initiated a chargeback via Paypal.  Invariably, the outcome was in his favour, and I have now been charged for the cost of the trainers.  I would have also been stung for the chargeback fee, but eBay refunded this.  Incidentally, I do have the email receipt of the trainers from when I bought them from a well-established and bona fide online retailer.  The susbequent conversation with eBay followed its predictable course, i.e. the chargeback is out of their hands etc. I have been in contact with citizens advice, and my bank.  Citizens advice told me that as a private seller I'm responsible for the "Title and description" of the goods, but not the performance, or the fitness for purpose.  To me it is clear; if you receive something that's not as described, you don't then use the goods, and more than 30 days later claim 'not as described'.  In my mind, this makes the claim fraudulent.  He's used the 'they're fake' card to give credence to a 'not as described' claim here, obviously, without any evidence.  My understanding is that the chargeback is unlawful, because the trainers were shipped as described.  However, I read something on an eBay forum regarding sellers having no statutory rights, i.e. no right to appeal against a chargeback decision, or to complain to the financial ombudsman.  Does this mean that if my bank disputes the charge on my behalf, it will be to no avail, even if it's recognisably a fraudulent chargeback?  I have reported it via the Action fraud website. Any advice, anyone?  Would be most grateful!
    • Thank you, I have drafted my letters and started to complete the reply form, printed from this site and not using the one they provided.    2 questions, on the forum link it says to tick box D & I, the reason for box D will be given on my thread, what would my answer be to "I dispute the debt"?  Do I send anything for the Vodafone debt they have included?  I've only done 118 loan s. 77 & capital one credit cards so. 78    Thank you

    • 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

Barclaycard acquired my goldfish credit card some years ago.

Due to financial difficulties all my debts were put into a DMP  

 

In 2015 Barclaycard sold the debt on to Link  

I stopped paying Link when they could not produce the documents under a s78 request.

Subsequently Link defaulted my account and a default notice was registered with the credit reference agencies in September 2017.

 

Yesterday I contacted Barclaycard and was informed they had sent out a default notice to me on 24 June 2009.

Can I now ask Link to remove the default notice they had place on my credit records or are they allowed to default the account for a second time

thanks for any help

You can request that Link the debt buyer remove their update yes as they are reporting inaccurate information....but only if BC registered it in 2009. ?

 

Original credit BC placed the Default in July 2009..... if they registered it....6 years ...would have fell off July 2015......A debt buyer cant resurrect it again in Sept 2017 

 

You can issue a notice of correction to the CRAs with a copy of the original DN.

But did BC ever register it...just because they sent you a default notice does not always follow that it was in fact registered...although I'm sure they would have but worth checking before contacting the Debt buyer.

  • dx100uk changed the title to Link & old Goldfish barclaycard Default notice date issues

just send link proof that BC created a DN in 2009?

demand they remove their erogenous false entry immediately else you'll start a serious complain against them with the ICO and also seek financial compensation ...give them 14 days.

 

that usually works..

I wonder if this was one of the infamous Mercer DN's that were faulty at the that time too?

 

retitled and moved to the BC forum.

No....the service of default notice is not proof that it was actually registered with the CRAs...and if it wasn't then Plinky Debt Buyer is fully entitled to try to register it...even though its 8 years after the default...which may be questionable.

Hi all thanks for your comments.

I have done a SAR with bc so see what comes back.

Dx100uk what was wrong with Mercer’s DN,s

 

 

That wont confirm if it was registered with the CRAs...simply that the default was issued.

 

Mercers Default notices were printed within the customers statement and not issued as a separate default notice  pursuant to section  87/88 CCA1974.Therefore they were invalid.

Hi all
I have received a letter from TransUnion in response to my complaint about Link placing a default with credit reference agencies 


In the letter it advised

“ After investigation, Link Financial has advised that the disputed entry (default notice) cannot be amended as per your request as the default was registered correctly when payments were missed. If you would like to discuss this matter further, please contact Link.


on 22/10/2019 I sent link a letter disputing the default that they had put against my credit record and I also included the original Barclaycard default notice for this debt.

 

I gave them the usual 14 days to respond.

I called them on Monday to ask if they had received my letter and they said they had but the default notice was not with it.

I then resent the default notice (by post signed for)but this time addressed it to their complaints department .


today I received a letter from Link telling me they had registered the default correctly and to contact them if I had any problems with this.


I have contacted the complaints/disputes team and was told to ignore this letter and they were now investigating my complaint.

 

They told me they have “56” days to look into this, and the 56 days would count from yesterday before I could complain to the ICO or FCO 


Is it correct they have 56 days before I can put a complaint in and if so should the 56 days start when my first letter was sent to them on 22/10/2019

sorry for the long post but I am trying to remove this default which is the only thing ruining my credit score
Thank you 
Clive

Hi dx100uk 

thank you for your reply and sorry for my late response, been a bit hectic over the last few days.

FCO should have been financial ombudsman service

Because they (Link) informed transunion they had investigated my complaint and concluded they have registered the default correctly but are now saying they are looking into the matter again would I be entitled to compensation if it’s is proven they registered the default with credit reference agencies erroneously.

Would you be able to give me a little more info on the 14 days rather than the 56 days they quote please

regards

complaints about DN's go to the ICO

a debt buyer cannot issue a DN they are not a creditor and never can be.

Hi dx100uk

thank you for your response.

 

If as you say Link cannot put a default against me,

as they are a debt purchaser  (and I am not doubting your advice)

 but I would have thought TransUnion would of pulled Link up over this point when they was looking into my complaint.

 

All TransUnion came back to me with was;

Link have stated their default was registered correctly when payments were missed. 

 

I will send a letter off to Link tomorrow telling them to remove the default or I shall start a complaint with the ICO immediately 

Regards

Hi dx100uk

yes I did send default notice to Link.

 

Had a letter back from them stating they had registered the default correctly.

I gave them a call and they said they had received my complaint letter but not the default notice. Strange ?? 

 

 I sent another letter with the default notice included, but this time sent it signed for with Royal Mail.

They received this on the 05/11/2019  

I also sent an email with the default notice attached

 

On the day they signed for the letter I called them just to make sure they had the default notice.

This is when they informed me they had 56 days to investigate my complaint and before I could take my complaint further.

 

would you say the 14 days you mentioned would be from 22/10/2019 when I sent the first letter or from 04/11/2019 when I sent the second letter

Hi dx

i received a response from Link and in the letter they stated, the default notice I received from Barclaycard in 2005 was just a warning letter advising me they was going to default the account. 

 

What I can gather is because I went into a debt management plan after I received the default notice Barclaycard never defaulted the account.

 

Link informed me I have 6 months to appeal this decision if I disagree with there final decision.

 

Due to other problems I had to put this on the back burner but I am now in a position to start the process of appealing it.

 

Would you advise the ICO or FOS for first port of call.

i'm wondering if a complaint to BC wouldn't go amiss here 1st.

that they should have registered the default regardless.

 

at that time the ICO guidelines clearly indicated continued marking of a credit file as in an arrangement was not on.
