    • Actually there wasn't a massive amount of work to do on the WS.  The "meat" was there because of the great work you'd already done. Here is a version which I think is nigh-on finished. However, with Easter there are a few days for the other regulars to suggest tweaks. Defendant WS.pdf
    • Hi all, We bought a part to fix our washing machine approx 13 months ago direct from the manufacturer of the washing machine via phone. This part then failed 13 months later, as confirmed by their own engineer, who was sent by the manufacturer (who is also the retailer for the part) FoC. The engineer actually installed a replacement part, the machine came back to life, but they then removed the part used for testing (and ours reinstalled) as "we would be charged for it". The retailer are refusing to replace the part, stating that they only warranty parts for 90 days. When I stated that I believed the Consumer Rights Act gives me longer than that, they insinuated that it did not, and this was repeated by many representatives. AIUI for goods bought more than 6 months ago, I need to get an engineers report to confirm the part has failed? Or that it has failed due to manufacturing issues? Or would the companies own engineers report suffice? Also, does anyone have any other decent contact details for Hotpoint (or the Whirlpool group)? Thanks, GH
    • Thank you for that "read me", It's a lot to digest, lots of legal procedure. There was one thing that I was going to mention to you,  but in one of the conversations in that thread it was mentioned that there may be spies on the Forum,  this is something that I've read quite some time ago in a previous thread. What I had in mind was to wait for the thirty days after their reply to my CCA request and then send the unenforceable letter. I was hoping that an absence of signature could be the Silver Bullet but it seems that there are lot of layers to peel on this Onion.  
    • love the extra £1000 charge for confidentialy there BF   Also OP even if they don't offer OOC it doesn't mean your claim isn't good. I had 3 against EVRi that were heard over the last 3 weeks. They sent me emails asking me to discontinue as I wouldn't win. Went infront of a judge and won all 3.    Just remember the law is on your side. The judges will be aware of this.   Where you can its important to try to point out at the hearing the specific part of the contract they breached. I found this was very helpful and the Judge made reference to it when they gave their judgements and it seemed this was pretty important as once you have identified a specific breach the matter turns straight to liability. From there its a case of pointing out the unlawfullness of their insurance and then that should be it.

    • 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.

Afternoon Caggers, got the wife's DSAR info back from Aqua/HBOS.

I am curious if anyone else has ever DSAR'd Aqua and not received all the information that they held on them.

 

I'm missing the DN and termination notice they've sent me previously,

they didn't send me a CCA (I do have one but not from my DSAR) or any letters that I've sent on behalf of the wife for the past few years.

 

What they have sent me is a copy of all the monthly statements,

a print off of communications from their computers and a couple of other bits.

 

I'm sure they should have sent the DN, termination letter, CCA and the letters i've sent them.

 

Am I correct in thinking this?

The 40 day point is up soon so I was going to put the account into dispute until i've got all the information

. I was also going to inform them I would be writing to the ICO to complain as they have not adhered to the law of the DPA.

 

Also when claiming back charges there is an overlimit fee of £12 and a late payment fee of £12 can these be both reclaimed?

Any help much appreciated. PM

Answers to a few of your Q's PM.

 

Any and ALL fees can be reclaimed, the 'brokerage fee' I am not sure of, but it does sound like something that could be claimed back.

 

What are the dates of the defaults on the credit file? They only have a 6 year life before they will auto drop off the file, so if any of them are nearing the end of their life probably best left alone IMO, unless of course your needing credit or are needing higher SY clearance.

Who ever heard of someone getting a job at the Jobcentre? The unemployed are sent there as penance for their sins, not to help them find work!

Hi there, to cut a long story short, I've got all my DSAR info from Aqua.

I've worked out my claim with the interest calculator and picked the template letter 2 from the library to send off.

 

My questions are:

On the interest calculator I used the interest being used on the card of 39.95%, is this the interest level to use as it is more than the actual charges I'm trying to claim back?

 

Have I used the correct template letter from the library it starts as follows:

 

"I now understand that the regime of fees xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Consumer regulations."

It's just so I can get the letter off for the wife in the morning to the complaints department for process.

Have anyone tried to reclaim charges from Aqua,

I put a letter in for the wife reclaiming the £12 admin charges and default charges but I've been seen off and Aqua have sent a letter saying the £12 is fair (reply below).

 

Now I've read somewhere again that the £12 was a guide price, but I was thinking under COBS could this not be challenged as I don't think it costs the creditor £12 to send out a secondary letter to say your later with this months installment and then another £12 to say you've defaulted aswell.

 

Can you use COBS as an argument that the charges are not proportionate and thus unfair?

The letter is Aqua's final say on my complaint and sent me straight to the FOS with it, which I will do.

 

As they are still throwing interest and charges on when the account was defaulted and closed in December 2011.

I think they have forgotten this and think I'm under the impression I haven't got the DN or closure letter.

Any thoughts much appreciated, as I think Aqua are using smoke and mirrors to put me off going any further. PM

Evening all, I know a DN can be reissued but you surely cannot have the same account terminated/closed twice?

 

I ask as Aqua are trying to do it,

I don't think they realise they've already terminated the account,

DN'd and reported it to the CRAs.

 

I'm waiting on the 7 day notice they've given me to reply (I'm not) to see whatever they send as I'm in my 6 month period for putting an unfair charges refund into the FOS, this would just be more fuel for the fire.

OK PM, sorry not been about, been busy swanning it abroad for a few weeks, but back to business!!

 

OK, the letter you received, is partly computer niff naff and trivia, and partly a human response IMO...However, the BS about the £12 charges they have added to your account can be ignored, if they will not refund them, then work out exactly how much extra charges they have added on, and the exact physical amount you owe, and pay up to that amount and nothing more, they WILL NOT go to court for unpaid (unfair) bank charges.

 

As for the DN issue, I think I am right in thinking (?) that once the account has been terminated that is it, they can't magically bring it back to life to terminate it a second time (although I will do some research and wait for others to advise first)

 

Also, as the account has been terminated, then NO further interest or charges can be applied, as their is NO agreement/contract in force, they have terminated it, so if you have the Term. letter, and it is dated, then that will aid your calculations and work out what you physically owe them.

 

So apart from the letter you posted above, what else have they sent you?

Who ever heard of someone getting a job at the Jobcentre? The unemployed are sent there as penance for their sins, not to help them find work!

Hi BB, the only other things they have sent from Aqua is the monthly statement (to the BFPO address), few more letters from Albion which have now stopped and the new termination letter (I will scan it tonight sometime, I'm just about to have some nosebag).

 

I'd already worked out from charges starting to termination of account the charges plus interest, hence the referral from them to the FOS to make a decision. The charges plus their equivalent interest was more than the wife had spent on the card in the first place.

 

I'll drag it out for years if I have to.

 

BB see below link for the letter that Aqua had sent the better half.

 

I have to say Aqua are confusing me, as they've already put a marker on her credit file with a DN dated in Dec 11.

 

On an earlier post I've already put up the original DN and closure of account letter.

If they've already DN'd and closed the account why are they trying to do it again?

 

As I'm sure that they cannot close the account for a second time on the same account.

 

I'm also in the process of putting an unfair charges complaint to the FOS aswell for the better half.

I'm just wondering if I should include that they are also trying to terminate the account for a second time and that even though I have CCA/SAR'd Aqua from our UK address (to which they have been writing to in regard to the complaint) when it comes to sending monthly statements and the linked letter below they keep sending the info to our old BFPO number?? Can I include this as part of my complaint to FOS?

Hi Caggers

It's been a very long time since being on here. 

 

My query relates an old Aqua debt for the better half. 

We were making token payments to PRA for a good 6/7 years. 

 

After a bit of email tennis with PRA, I was checking the old aqua paperwork I hold and I've realised that the default amount that was originally passed onto the first DCA is different by approx £250 to PRA.

 

Whilst I acknowledge the debt is enforceable not to PRA I must say,

can I force PRA to give a full break down of interest added etc since the original DN so I can see what the £250 covers. 

 

I still have all the original CCA requests and responses (thankfully), original DN, notification of account closure, notice of assignment to first DCA etc. 

I'm happy to pay what is owed just the correct amount.

Thanks PM

Hi DX,

I've CCA'd PRA and got a

copy of a reconstructed credit agreement with no signature,

notice of assignment

and copy of payments made.

 

I know the debt is enforceable because the original agreement was signed in Dec 07,

they changed the rules a couple of months earlier regarding agreements being reconstructed.

 

I'm wondering whether I should send a SAR request to them for a full breakdown of charges as i know the OH doesnt as much as they claim.

that's crap

and are the templates she WOULD have gotten if she'd signed up with newday in the 1st place

however she didn't

 

should be from HBOS  nd it most certainly NOT what they used as you'll see on here if you look for HBOS aqua card sign ups from other threads here

 

sorry who ever told you that was enforceable wants shooting

another clue is progressive credit, they never ever handled anything bar lemon debts.

 

she should have stopped paying 8yrs ago.

all she's done is pay for their drinks and holidays on the free money she has been giving them

So do you recommend I go back to them with account in dispute letter until the correct agreement is sent, I'll know when it does as I have a copy.  I thought it was enforceable originally as the card was taken out after a change in ruling on reconstituted credit agreements around September 2007ish, maybe I've shot myself in the foot for the OH. I'm open to dragging this one out!!!
