    • Hello, Following the submission of my defense, last night I received an email from DCBL indicating that the claimant intends to proceed with the claim (I've attached a screenshot of the email for reference) along with the N180 directions questionnaire. I'm unsure how they obtained my email, but I suspect it was through the courts' form when I completed the Acknowledgment of Service. This email almost slipped my attention. I have also today received a letter from court to state they have received my defense.  It appears they are requesting an online telephone hearing with the court. Could you please advise me on the necessary steps I should take at this point? Thank you for your assistance. Letter-Email 25-04-24.pdf N180 - Directions questionnaire (Small Claims Track).pdf
    • Default Amount £9237.88, all this started in 2006 Admitted debt £9075.65 Weightmans added £1515.01 immediately they became involved, no explanation The Statement shows when Marlin bought debt in May 2011 £10439.25 Their statements, not received until the SAR, are based on this. Cabot deducted £1515.01on their statements in January 2019, again did not find this out until SAR. Weightmans added in  2007 after the CH1 etc was confirmed by the court £741.50, made up of Process server fees, Court Fee (they tried for bankruptcy), Solicitors fee and Land Registry fee. Unspecfied Legal costs were added by Marlin in March 2015, again I did not know this until statements received with SAR I had been paying monthly, without exception until December 2018. I am minded to take the property charge, CH1 amount ,deduct all my payments and the subsequent fees, and request/demand a refund on the final payment made? I consistently disputed Weightmans balances, but they never responded. I also told Mortimer Clarke/Cabot that I disputed their amounts.  
    • Just follow this link and have read of some threads so your familiar with the process https://www.consumeractiongroup.co.uk/topic/347310-legal-n180-directions-questionnaire-small-claims-track/#comment-5178739
    • Sorry,  I'm not familiar with terminology.  Direction questionnaire is what I've seen online as next step. Witness statement: I haven't gone that far, that's why I put the question marks.

    • 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, I have an outstanding debt currently with DrydenFairfax solicitors.

 I requested a copy of the CCA and they have replied saying they are unable to send the hard copy due to COVID, but I can register on their customer portal to view the information.

 

 I do not want to do this as they will then have my email etc,  

Are they obliged to send the hard copy and can I dispute this online route?

 

Many Thanks

Yes they are obliged to send it to you.

Right back to them and tell them that they are obliged to send it to you and that if they fail to do so then you are likely to consider that the alleged debt is unenforceable in any event

Tell them if they harass you or make any further attempts to recover any alleged debt – which in any event you deny owing – that you will begin a formal complaint to the FCA

This is a Santander loan, non payment has been just over 2 years now as I was unable to reach a payment agreement with them, they kept refusing my offered amount.

 

It has been passed elsewhere meanwhile for collection and now it has landed with DrydenFairfax.

 

Thanks

Their stated client is Santander and they go on to say that they have been instructed by their client to recover the outstanding amount or to take appropriate action.

 

In their recent reply referring me to their customer portal, they also included an income expenditure form for completion.

Hi, it was 3.5 years ago and stopped as I dropped out of work.  I managed to do pro rata payments with other creditors except these.  It was done online and forms sent in the post.  Owing approx £4000.

so most probably enforceable then

you don't need their permission to pro rata  just pay it by BACS.

 

i guess your credit file is already defaulted so they can't harm you further.

  • dx100uk changed the title to Santander Loan - Drydens CCA Return - want me to use a Customer Portal rather than send it to me - covid regulations!!

Yeah I imagined it would be enforceable but wondered if they actually had it.

 When this all started I did pay Santander a nominal payment for a few months but the amounts were sent back to my account and I have this on a letter from my building society.  

 

They just would not engage in to any kind of negotiation and I have copies of letters I sent about the returned payments but they outsourced the collection.

 

How would you suggest I proceed now at this point please.  

For information I have been made redundant during Covid about 6 weeks ago so if I was to offer anything it’s going to be something like £1.

 

I also need to reduce my payments to the existing creditors due to the redundancy but that’s another natter I guess.

 

Thanks for this.

well the more you keep paying your debts, the longer they will remain around your neck..

paying silly small amounts to original creditors is in most cases totally pointless.

ignore them then and let them sell it on to a DCA debt buyer for peanuts.

original creditors do not do court = bad publicity.

you have numerous old threads regard similar issues
