    • No I'm not. Even if I was then comments on this forum wouldn't constitute legal advice in the formal sense. Now you've engaged a lawyer directly can I just make couple of final suggestions? Firstly make sure he is fully aware of the facts. And don't mix and match by taking his advice on one aspect while ploughing your own furrow on others.  Let us know how you get on now you have a solicitor acting for you.

    • Thank you for your reply, DX! I was not under the impression that paying it off would remove it from my file. My file is already trashed so it would make very little difference to any credit score. I am not certain if I can claim compensation for a damaged credit score though. Or for them reporting incorrect information for over 10 years? The original debt has been reported since 2013 as an EE debt even though they had sold it in 2014. It appears to be a breach of the Data Protection Act 1998 Section 13 and this all should have come to a head when I paid the £69 in September 2022, or so I thought. The £69 was in addition to the original outstanding balance and not sent to a DCA. Even if I had paid the full balance demanded by the DCA back in 2014 then the £69 would still have been outstanding with EE. If it turns out I have no claim then so be it. Sometimes there's not always a claim if there's blame. The CRA's will not give any reason for not removing it. They simply say it is not their information and refer me to EE. More to the point EE had my updated details since 2022 yet failed to contact me. I have been present on the electoral roll since 2012 so was traceable and I think EE have been negligent in reporting an account as in payment arrangement when in fact it had been sold to a DCA. In my mind what should have happened was the account should have been defaulted before it was closed and sold to the DCA who would then have made a new entry on my credit file with the correct details. However, a further £69 of charges were applied AFTER it was sent to the DCA and it was left open on EE systems. The account was then being reported twice. Once with EE as open with a payment arrangement for the £69 balance which has continued since 2013 and once with the DCA who reported it as defaulted in 2014 and it subsequently dropped off and was written off by the DCA, LOWELL in 2021. I am quite happy for EE to place a closed account on my credit file, marked as satisfied. However, it is clear to me that them reporting an open account with payment arrangement when the balance is £0 and the original debt has been written off is incorrect? Am I wrong?

I Know! .... someone here with a chance to sue Highview for breach of GDPR with a very good chance of winning, I was excited reading it especially after all the work put in by site members and thinking he could hammer them for £££'s and then, the OP disappeared half way through. Although you never know the reason so all I can say is I hope the OP is alive and well regardless. I'd relish the chance to do them for that if they breached my GDPR.

    • 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.

Can anyone help me?

 

I received a letter from IDR Legal saying they are acting on behalf of Emirates NBD in the UAE.

 

I left Dubai in 2015 when I lost my job and I had some outstanding credit card debt there. I have not been able to secure anything proper / worthwhile since I returned and the economy in the UK hasn't been great either. I am financially struggling and slowly drowning in debt. Even though I want to repay whatever i owe, i am not in a position to do so. 

 

following advice I had read on here over the years, I had ignored all calls and messages etc. They would stop for a while before starting up etc and this has been going on like this to date.

 

Then a few weeks ago, it started again (emails, letters, and sms's) which I ignored as usual and then I received a large packet 10 days ago saying that they are going to do a Pre-Action Conduct and Protocol and I have 30 days to reply.

 

They dated the letter 6th April but I only got it 7-10 days ago. I cant afford to have any bankruptcy or court proceedings against me and am extremely worried about this.

 

They have also sent part of the credit card agreement (not all of it) which does appear to have my signature on it, as well as credit card statements from Feb 2014 to Sept 2018 - Even though I left in April 2015. 

 

Can anyone help me or give me some good advice?

I really dont know what to do and this is extremely stressful.

i also dont know how they got my address or phone number.

 

Hope to hear form someone soon.

Thanks

Sure will remove the ref numbers. Didn't realise.

I have been looking into it but today got a call that they want to give me a statutory demand? Dont know what that is but apparently someone tried to deliver it to me but Iwas not home.

Am very worried and just want this put to bed.

Please advise

Thanks

Everything they sent.

 

If they are trying to serve a statutory demand then dont ignore it you only have 18 days once its served in person to you.

 

Like many issued here already on UAE debts, it could be a bluff, but dont assume they wont progress to court. Anyone can download the form and send it too you, its not from a court.

 

Get reading up.

Hi Dx.

 

I got a call from someone saying they are trying to deliver a Stat D to me. As I was not in, they said they will type up a letter or something with contact details and then redeliver it. What do I do?

 

Do you want to see all the paperwork they have sent?

Its mainly credit card statements, T&C's and a copy of a signed paper which is hard to read but could be the Credit Card agreement page. I can scan and load up here in a bit.

 Oh ok great. Then you have everything I have. The letter, the T&C and the signed paper they sent me.

Is there anything else you need?

thanks in advance

 

I received the attached in the post just now. What do you advise?

Also should I reply back to the original letter that IDR sent and try to give some kind of settlement plan? A monthly amount or something? As I cant afford to be bankrupted.

Please let me know.

Thanks

Hi people.

Wanted to update you all and get some more advice.

 

I've been in communication with IDR since they served me with a SD.

 

I'm attaching some letters between us and would like some advice on how to proceed and also what they are saying.

Thanks in advance

your details on last page are clearly visible through the felt pen

what does it say in upload?

 

shame you entered into pointless letter tennis.

we didn't advise that, neither do any like threads here .

you deal with the original creditor only.

 

so the sd has now expired as they didnt file it with the court anyway.

quite usual just a threat to get a response.

Statutory Demand served 20th May 2022.

 

There is no expiry period for a statutory demand. However, if more than 4 months has passed since you were served the demand, they will need to explain to the court why they have delayed in presenting a bankruptcy petition. If the delay is too long, they may have to serve a fresh statutory demand.

Hi Dx. 
I thought my details were blacked out but guess it must have dried.

 

Also what do they mean that they won’t set aside the SD?

 

I don’t understand their last 2 letters which came together. 


just don’t know what to do as what they are proposing is totally unacceptable and unrealistic and unaffordable.

 

Should I counter back?

Do they have any grounds here?

 

I. Can’t afford what they are saying nor can I afford to be made bankrupt as that doesn’t serve anyone’s needs.
