The debt was sold to lowlifes two years ago, a noa was recieved.

 

I forwarded Belmont the letter off barclaysharks along with the noa and a letter saying I don't agree to this I'm sure your aware they can't set off once it's been sold.

 

Then today a letter has come from Belmont saying we have secured a refund and our fee is due!! So i think they have ignored what I sent them and accepted anyway. What can I do about that?

 

As far as I'm concerned there fee isn't due until I recieve that refund not lowells.

Barclaycard have started doing this of late and sadly fos are agreeing with the approach they are taking.

 

The courts may think differently and I fear that your only chance of getting that refund paid to you would be to issue. There is case law on setting off to a third party.

 

Edlington Properties Ltd v JH Fenner and Co

 

Ask BT why they have apparently accepted the offer when your written instructions were not to do so

The thing is though why should I have to chase this through the courts when bt are being paid to do al that. Surely if they don't and I have to do it no fee is payable!

Don't quite follow you...looks like your sentence cut off mid way.

 

If you're asking why shouldn't BT be challenging this then even if they did then BC will ore than likely just tell them that that is what they have done and that is that. BT won't be interested in arguing through the courts.

why oh why did you use a fleecing reclaims company?

 

you've been here since 2009 and should know better!

 

dx

please don't hit Quote...just type we know what we said earlier..

DCA's view debtors as suckers, marks and mugs

NO DCA has ANY legal powers whatsoever on ANY debt no matter what it's Type

and they

are NOT and can NEVER  be BAILIFFS. even if a debt has been to court..

If everyone stopped blindly paying DCA's Tomorrow, their industry would collapse overnight...

You'll probably find in their T&Cs that if the refund has been secured, whether by way of set-off or by payment to you, then they have effectively done what they contracted to do i.e. obtain a refund from the lender.

 

I reckon you still ought to ask them why the offer was accepted against your written wishes.

 

Claims companies really don't have the client's best interest at heart...only their 30% fee which is why the advice on here is to steer well clear of them.

Terms say

 

I/ we understand that if the loan company or credit card provider uses my/ our redress monies to reduce an outstanding debt balance on my loan or credit card a full fee will still be payable to Belmont Thornton

 

But like I say the debt was sold so I have no debt with Barclays and I gave bt proof of that and not to accept the offer. I explicitly stated " I do not agree to the amount being offset"

" Thankyou for your recent letter in which you wish for your compensation to be paid to your bank account. We have informed the lender of your request. Unfortunately it is at barclaycard loans and cards discretion as to how tey wish to allocate the redress amount.

 

In this instance the lender has decided that it will be remotes the amount to arrears/ outstanding balance.

 

Thank you for your cooperation"

 

I asked why the accepted the offer when I told them not to. As you can see they have not responded.

Had another reply from Belmont still not answering my question. There letter has two sentences basically saying "it's not our fault . The fee is still due " I've written to them again asking for the final response and an answer to why they accepted the offer when i told them not to. What would the next stage be?

 

No reply from Barclays either surprise surprise.
