    • I've had a text and email from MCB: "Dear XXXXX Please contact us today. Your payment has not been brought up to date and we would like to discuss your account with you as a matter of urgency. Our telephone number is 02039236888"   " Early investigations confirm you are resident at the above address. Despite this, we have not managed to speak to you about your now, seriously overdue debt.   We are now instructing our external debt collectors to contact you directly in relation to your loan account. If you want to avoid this course of action, contact us today on 0203 923 6888"
    • What type of finance is it?   HP, PCP, Loan? They want her to ring so they can bully her into making payments she can't afford...unless she can record her calls then IMHO, I'd keep everything in writing. Is £400 SSP her only income? There's no chance they will justify taking half of that.   Lodge a formal complaint with them ASAP, exhaust it, and then you can escalate it sooner rather than later, ruddy sharks!  
    • Is all of this actually on the signage? Don't remember seeing that much detail on other threads.
    • If I have learnt one thing from this forum, it's not to call and communicate via email. I passed this info on to her and they are pushing for her to call them.    "Unfortunately, you will need to call us. The conversation won’t be so black and white as to therefore type over email. In a nutshell we can confirm that the request to not pay for 3 months we cannot put in place"  I emailed them back on her behalf and said that what ever is discussed over the phone will need to be put in an email so that she can review it properly. No decisions will be made on that phone call.    "Once we speak to you on the phone we will follow up with an email to confirm the options discussed. [Phone number]"   Why are they pushing for a phone call? If its not so black and white, why can they then follow up with an email?

    • 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.

As the judgment must be more than £5K if the court fee was £410.....I would be submitting an application to get a monthly payment in place( N245) ...then you wont have any worries if and when the Bailiffs will come knocking.

The info from the court is in post 24 and all i ever received

. It doesn't state how to pay so I’m assuming they can ask the full amount.

Are you saying I should try and resolve? 


There is also a link to Cabot website which I haven’t accessed but indicates that a payment plan can be agreed electronically or a reduced settlement amount. Is that not an option?

As it approaches 6 years its obvious they will execute the judgment for that amount.....if you make application to vary the payment first they cant execute further.

 

Put it through the court not Cabot...then its rubber sealed....fee is £50

It came from Northampton bulk, is that where i return?

Also on the document it asks for the warrant number and local number, the only  numbers i can see in the documentation is a case number and the account reference number do i use these?

 

i believe the fee is being reduced to £14 from 3rd August.

I have submitted the form to the Northampton County Court.

Just to confirm the fee for this is now £14 if any others are doing the same.

 

In the meantime i have received another letter from Cabot this time referring to an Abbey National overdraft of £1200 from 2007.

I know for a fact that any account i had with Abbey was closed that year as it is the time i entered a joint dmp with my ex.

 

I also know 100% that no payments have been made since July 2013.

Any payments that were made prior to this did not come from my account.

 

Am i right in thinking overdraft debt is treated differently to credit card debt?

also do i wait until they submit some form of detail about the debt or do i make a request?

there is nothing in the letter, just the usual we want to work with you.

Thanks,

my communication only started with them recently when i discovered the CCJ which was the main purpose of the thread and subject to N245 which i have submitted.

 

No details at all about Abbey just a reference number and as you say Abbey became Santander in 2010 long after i had closed my account with them.

 

I will wait for the next letter...................

I'm sure it will be along soon but I'm tempted to ignore all communication around this unless something specific arrives.

Ignore......not sure how you got away with a fee of £14 fro the N245......its £50 as per HMRC fees.

  • 6 months later...

Back in 2020 i discovered a CCJ and after much guidance and communication submitted a form N245 in which i ticked the boxes 'suspension of warrant' and 'reduction in instalment order' which was accepted and i subsequently set up a direct debit for the agreed amount.

 

After only 6 payments i have now received a letter from Restons asking me to complete a new financial statement and make a new offer by the 9th April 2021.

 

My understanding was that as long as the payments had been made and the order had been accepted that would be the end of the matter. To say i am stressed is an understatement. I feel like just telling them to do one and take me to court but probably wont help.

Yes, that's the one. The e mail i received from the court states the following.

 

The payment arrangements are between you and the claimant not the court. The claimant has accepted your offer of £xxxx a month first payment is due to them on xx September 2020. You will need to contact the claimant and arrange to  pay them.  The claimant will notify us when the payment has been made in full.

Topics merged.

 

I thought we had seen the back of this crew been very quiet last couple of years.

 

Okay so you ignore their letter and continue to make your payment...if they wish to up it they can make an application for a redetermination.

The agreed monthly amount was set by the n245.
