    • I want to add my 2 cents here...  The purchase of this debt, Perch Group dont absolve themselves of liabilities from the Original Creditor. They should be responsible for dealing with this complaint in response to an Irresponsible Lending dispute.  If the balance is disputed as such in that way - Then they should be referring to the Original Creditor where applicable.    Also if your complaint was written in a way where a template wasnt used or it was rewritten to a similar effect where it wasnt recognisable - Then you probably would have stood a better opportunity at it not getting rebuffed.  To be honest those - Perch and TM Legal are a waste of Oxygen and will say anything to get you to pay.    Ditto on the template. Where did you find it?  Please keep in mind we have to unravel what you have done till now and help build a formal response.     
    • Ok......... I'll try and answer some of the questions asked and stay relevant. @lolerz - I do try and do things for myself and sometimes especially where mental health issues are involved it is difficult to ask for help or even get around to it, the irrelevant twaddle was compiled by looking at various websites and information, no one source and getting as much information as possible, the fall down was that i tried to cobble something together using this information, it was not a template per se. Not sure when you ask what the original debt was as in do you mean the amount? I haven't moved. The original LoC was by post. I assume they got my email from account, i have never responded to or acknowledged anything by email. @BankFodder - As per reply above it wasn't a template. I utilised information that i had gathered and foolishly by the looks of things tried to manipulate it into something useful. @dx100uk - Not sure when i last paid, it would have been early 2023 i think. I took it out 17/11/21. My credit status was poor at the time with other debts and a couple of defaults at least. Hope that helps.

    • I've just received a letter from Resolvecall threatening a visit etc. This debt has had no action on it in over 20 years. I've not acknowledged the debt either in writing or verbally; this is the first letter I've had in over 10 years. Do I need to be worried, is there something I should do? I understand the debt is statute-barred now. Thanks

    • 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.

This winter might be the breaking of the EV paradigm, friends who are using EV vans on delivery for DPD have Range Anxiety , as have a 30 mile each way trip to depot to pick up parcels, do their round then 30 mile each way to depot and home, they are screwed if they can't get a top up on round, and no charger's at depot either.  How things will pan out on a cold winter with a potential 50% drop in range due to low temperature is anyone's guess.

Its the hidden benefit hidden for a while by the EnergyCo's it was obvious there would be backdoor's capable of being used to the detriment of the consumer's just like Windows 11 has more phone homes  sending data than Windows 10, has the Smart meter has to be a two way data flow, to allow remote updates etc, so the switch to pre pay is oh so convenient, they are not happy their wheeze was rumbled.

If someone with a dialysis setup at home or had a respirator that had to be powered was forced on prepay  self disconnected due to no money to top up and they died as a result, could the EnergyCo be investigated for murder or manslaughter?  If not they should be. Likely nothing will be done until a Coroner attributes a death directly to the self disconnection and forced prepay.
