    • Well, that's it then. Clear proof of the rubbish cameras. Clear proof of double dipping. G24 won't be getting a penny. Belt & braces, I would write to the address LFI has found, include the evidence of double dipping, and ask Fraser Group to call their dogs off.
    • LOL. after sending Perch capital a CCA request with a stapled £1 PO attached (x2) Their lapdog Legal team TM Legal have sent me two letters today saying "due to a recent payment on the account, your account is open to legal/enforcement action" so i guess they have tried to apply that payment to the account to run the statue bar along. dirty tactics lol.
    • I have initiated the breathing space so ill wait. from re reading everything this what i understand BS gives me 60 days break from the creditors during these 60 days they may contact me and will most likely default I need to wait until after a default notice to see whether the OC will keep the debt or sell it off If kept by the OC then i should attempt a plan or pay some token payment? If sold to DCA then don't pay and after 6 years it will leave my credit report once the DN is registered with a date. DCA may start a CCJ but unlikely, if they do come back here. last question, do you know roughly how long this will all take? in terms of defaults/default notice, potential CCJ? Would you say I have 12 months plus from when the BS ends?
    • Well, it's up to you. Years & years & years ago the forum used to suggest appealing to POPLA, but then AFAIK POPLA's remit was changed and it became much more biased in favour of the PPCs. One of the problems with taking that route is that the onus will fall on you to prove your appeal, while if you do nothing the onus is on MET to start legal action which experience teaches they are very, very reluctant to do. If you go down the POPLA route I would think your ace would be insufficient signage.  Are you able to go back there and get photos of their rubbish, entrapping signs?
    • The first clearly visible sign as you pull in to the car park states “McDonald’s Customers Only 60 minutes” The next clearly visible sign is an almost identical sign outside Starbucks which states “60 minutes free stay for customers only” There are other signs towards the rear of the car park (away from the outlets) that have the terms and conditions on them in very small print.

    • 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 caggers, had the attached letters from Overdales/Lowell's today for the OH.

 

Are Overdales a DCA as Lowell's suggests or solicitors?

 

Depending on what they are I think will decide my next move, which my gut feeling is let it go to court.

 

I'm pretty sure Lowell's would have taken the OH there by now if they really had something.

 

Thanks PM

Hi Caggers,

 

the OH got a Letter of Claim from Overdales a couple of days ago. 

 

I've attached it to view, it asks that she completes paperwork that she filled out when it was with Lowell's solicitors. 

 

The letter says on one hand they will issue a CC claim then the next sentence is if legal proceedings are issued. 

 

I suppose my question is do I get the OH to just fill out the paperwork again and send it off in line with the previous advice I've been given for her or just ignore them? 

 

Thanks PM

i believe the DN was issued several months? (october was it?) after the last payment so lowells will claim otherwise, but if you read the lowell vanquis threads here in the legal section they usually give in.

 

whens the 30days up?

Hello

 

I had success against Lowell/Vanquis.

 

I strongly advise you get a SAR to Vanquis so you can get a copy or evidence of the date of the Default Notice, unless you have already got it on file.

 

This might take up to 30 days so do it now, just in case the case starts to progress.

 

You might get a phone call from Vanquis asking why you want your data.  I did.  I think the lady concerned was somewhat inexperienced so was unsure how to handle a SAR so I was very polite and explained that I had a legal right to the data but that what I really wanted was a copy of the Default Notice.  (I already had one but I wanted belt and braces!).   They sent one by return of post.  If this happens to you then you can decide whether to insist on your legal right to the full data dump which might take time or would be satisfied with a copy of the DN.

 

Knowing the exact date of the DN would allow you to identify the exact Stat  Bar date and could save you a world of pain.

 

Lowells subsequently gave me cock and bull as to why the account was not Stat Barred and once you have the date and it passes you can safely ignore their protestations.

 

By the way after I got past the stat bar date I also hounded them to clear my credit record which they had re-defaulted way back when ..... so check that as well, though it is of secondary importance to getting to the stat bar date.

 

Good luck.

I was under the impression the SB date is from the last payment rather than the default notice date.

 

I'll have a read up as it's technically SB now and dx has recommended sending the SB letter at the start of September which I'm planning on doing for the OH.

I thought it was the date of last payment or when you last acknowledged the debt. 

 

Still get the SAR off and go from there. Make sure you have in writing the exact date of deafault notice

Why are covering old ground?

We have the dn .

And there was a court of appeal ruling in 2015 which ratified dn+14 days is sb date. However the if oc took months or years to register one thats another matter that has caused lowell to discontinue or lost numerous cases.

 

let it run till about the 3/4th sept then send our sb letter. But they've already sent one paploc and had a reply anyway.so this new one is just to hope you'd moved and don't respond, then they'll go for a backdoor CCJ
