    • This time you do need to reply to them with a snotty letter to show you'd be big trouble for them if they did try court. We will help this evening.  
    • Hi, I just wanted to update the post and ask some further advice  I sent the CCA and CPR request on the 14th May, to date I have had no reply to the CCA but I received a load of paperwork from the CPR request a few days ago. I need to file the defence today and from the information I have read the following seems to be what is required.  I would be grateful if some one could confirm suitability. Many thanks   Claim The claim is for the sum of £255.69 due by the Defendant under an agreement regulated by the Consumer Credit Act 1974 for a PayPal account with an account reference of xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx)  The Defendant failed to maintain contractual payments required by the agreement and a Default Notice was served under s.87(1) of the Consumer Credit Act 1974 which has not been complied with. The debt was legally assigned to the claimant on 15-09-21, notice of which has been given to the defendant. The claim includes statutory interest under S.69 of the County Courts Act 1984 at a rate of 8% per annum from the date of assignment to the date of issue of these proceedings in the sum of £0.00. The Claimant claims the sum of £255.69   Defence  The Defendant contends that the particulars of claim are vague and generic in nature. The Defendant accordingly sets out its case below and relies on CPR r 16.5 (3) in relation to any particular allegation to which a specific response has not been made. 1. Paragraph 1 is noted. I have had financial dealings with PayPal  in the past but cannot recollect the account number referred to by the Claimant. 2. Paragraph 2 is denied. I am not aware of service of a Default Notice by the original creditor the Claimant refers to within its particulars of claim.  3. Paragraph 3 is noted. On the 14/5/2024 I requested information related to this claim by way of a Section 77 request, which was received and signed for by the claimant on 20/5/2024. As of today, the Claimant has failed to respond to this request, and therefore remains in default of the section 77 request and therefore unable to enforce any alleged agreement until its compliance. 4. Therefore it is denied with regards to the Defendant owing any monies to the Claimant, and the Claimant is put to strict proof to: (a) Show how the Defendant has entered into an agreement and: (b) Show the nature of the breach and evidence by way of a Default Notice Pursuant to s.87(1) of the Consumer Credit Act 1974. 5. Paypal (Europe) S.A.R.L is out of the juristriction of English Courts. 6. As per Civil Procedure 16.5 it is expected that the Claimant prove the allegation that the money is owed. 7. By reason of the facts and matters set out above, it is denied that the Claimant is entitled to the relief claimed, or any relief.
    • Thanks @dx100ukI followed the advice given on here... then it went very quiet!  The company was creditfix I think then transferred to Knightsbridge (or the other way around) The scammer independent advisor was Roger Wallis-having checked his LinkedIn profile just this morning, it does look like he's still scamming vulnerable people... I know I was stupid for taking his advice, but i do wonder how many others he has done this to over a longer period of time (it came as a  massive shock to him when our IVA suddenly failed). Lowell have our current address (and phone numbers if the rejected calls over the past couple of days is anything to go by!) No point trying the SB because of the correspondence in 2019? Thanks
    • I have received the following letter from BW Legal today.  Also includes form if I admit the debt and wanting my income details.  Do I reply to this LETTER OF CLAIM please?  Looks like they are ready for court now??  Thank You BW Legal - Letter of Claim.pdf
    • According to Wikipedia - yeah, I know - the site is owned by Croydon Council. It's at least worth a try to contact the council and ask for a contact in The Colonnades. You could then lay it on thick about being a genuine customer and ask them to call their dogs off. It's got to be worth a try  https://www.croydon.gov.uk/contact-us/contact-us

    • 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.

IS IT?

thought it would show a judge / the company what i have paid? am i just showing whats been unlawfully added?

just want to see how ive got to such a high figure and high arrears 

The new company who have it - i get charged a £40 arrears fee on first of month then if i pay my payment i get the £40 refunded. Thats the only fee i am being charged that i can see,

yet on my monthly account summary under fees - the figure rises every few months and is at £520 now?

i cant seem to work out at all where its from unless its been from a couple of late payments or covid relief holiday

 

without adding any more on ( the £520 fees balance i cant work out above )

my balance on the CI sheet at 15.75% interest  ( lowest was 12.35% and highest  17.3% - its currently at 15.75% -  ive put it at that for the APR on sheet ) is £28,580.05 ( not inc the £520 fees )

its not going before a judge at this point, its a speculative reclaim to your current mortgage provider.

you are reclaiming unlawful penalty fees.

so you've gotta findout over the history WHO and when you were charged these £480 pre 2023,

i also notice it went £480 to £520 up £40 nov 23. so you missed or were late then?

find the rest of the £520 in the history. they are the type of charges to put on the sheet.

yes ive worked it out , its the monthly arrears fee where they have forgotten to take it off

- been through all the statements.

There has been a couple of times that i paid on last day of month and their system hasn't registered it until after 12 so charged.

once ive updated this, where do i go with trying to contact them with it?

isn't all the interest and arrears charges to be questioned?

the figures are still highly inflated

below is a screenshot of one of latest figures

you send that CI sheet and a covering letter that you wish to reclaim them as they are unlawful.

as for the mortgage itself

you are one of 100'000's that are a 'mortgage prisoner'. (type that is a search engine.)

  • dx100uk changed the title to Loan Maker Broker/Advantage/ADV2/Paragon/MARS - Secured 2nd charge debt consolidation Loan May 2007 - still owe more than i borrowed!!

just read the whole thread and its 211 posts over 15yrs

we've only seen 6 pages of what must be 100's of pages of statement from your sars to each lender that has had their fingers in this. and even those are not the full A4 page scan........ 

your 'reclaiming' should not only be for the last few years but back to day one on fixed sum fees.

its worthy to note section 9 of the agreement.

it specifically states they can charge additional interest on charges and post judgemental interest too. 

until/unless you get every statement its a dead duck doing this reclaiming.

i notice you indicated at some point there is equity in the home.

pers id approach halifax and ask to increase your mortgage to pay mars off using that equity.

you are never gonna be rid of them elsewise

agreement date 2007-06-14

25yrs @300 x £478.16 = £143,448.

Hi

yes well i wouldn't be putting the hundreds of pages on here.

I have all paperwork from all lenders.

I didnt put a full a4 on as i was just showing you certain figures to check what to include.

I have gone back to day 1 and included all charges.

Since mars have owned it there has not been as many charges only the total of £580

i cannot see charges for moving lenders - these havent been disclosed if there was any charge at all.

I would like to hit them with this and a settlement figure.

thats good,.

now carefully check ALL those legal/sol/litigation fees

if they are around the time of any successful court stuff you cant reclaim those sadly but £23k is a good sum

rest looks good.

time to find a loan charges reclaim letter and get that sent off then.

and then the fun begins

not us too old excuse excuse.

  • 2 weeks later...

Do you have any good letters i can use , i need to make this as good as possible and have a solid argument.

Is there anything i can challenge too in court regarding the loan agreement , their conduct etc

When i was last in court just before paragon sold it to Mars capital

- the judge went to town on them for allowing such big arrears to mount up

- he gave a suspended possession order but he said their conduct was terrible.

I am happy to get a solicitor and go full on with this.

Ideally id like to come up with a settlement figure and be rid of it.

I will check the charges - so charges for court dates etc cannot be claimed right?

as long as any list sols/litigation fees are close too and RELATED to any REAL/ACTUAL COURT CLAIM you cannot, but random fees well outside of any court date are very questionable.
