    • Hi everyone, I have an update on my case that I’d like to share with you all.Β  so after submitting 371 pages in my bundle, a witness statement and skeleton argument for my court case due to take place in Manchester on June 21st I got an email from my litigator stating that hmrc have pulled out and the case is now closed!Β  Β  this is the body of the letter….. This letter, which is copied to the Appellant,Β pursuant to Rule 17 of the Tribunal Procedure (First-tier Tribunal) (Tax Chamber) Rules 2009, the Respondents gives notice to the Tribunal of their intention to not defend the above appeal. Β  The Respondents respectfully invite the Tribunal to allow the appeal and close its file. In lieu of the above the Respondents would respectfully ask the Tribunal to vacate the hearing scheduledΒ for Friday 21 June 2024. We would accordingly invite the Tribunal to close its file. Obviously this is extremely good news which hasn’t sunk in that after 3 years of fighting it is over.Β  Β  I do have a further fight on my hands in that the Group Action I had joined with Independent Tax that had been disbanded in November last year and I chose not to continue with them. They are trying to bill me over 5k for the work they did under that Group Action which is ludicrous bearing in mind the whole point in joining was that it would keep the cost to a minimum as it would be shared between us all. They had asked if I wanted to continue to have them represent me on an individual level which I declined, if I hadn’t, goodness knows what they would have been trying to charge me now.Β

    • As PM Sunak really showed his true colours at the D Day Commemorations by doing what? Oh I am the British PM lets just leave early I have better things to do and as he is called out on disrespecting all those veterans that served our country for the freedoms we have today he gives a groveling apology to little to late. He knew about this event for a long time and also knew that this is probably the last D Day Commemoration due to the age of those Veterans who gave so much for there countries freedom. Even on the day of the D Day Commemoration he still could have changed his plans As PM and stayed but choose not to showing such DISRESPECT to those Veterans, those that lost there lives and Families for the Freedoms we have today Being a Veteran myself I have never known a PM to show such disrespect what the hell was he thinking SHAME ON YOU PM SUNAK Β

    • 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. Β 

      Car was dirty and test drive was two circuits of roundabout on entry to the showroom. Β 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 byΒ 10pm. Β 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.Β

      Many thanksΒ

    • 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.

Intrum/Resolvecall - Old Halifax Debt


Recommended Posts

Hi πŸ‘‹Β 

I've received an out of the blue letter from Intrum saying they've passed a historic debt to Resolvecall who will be visiting our property if we don't get in touch.Β 

I am certain this is statute barred and designed to scare us.

Β  Do we ignore it?

Can't restart the clock once statute barred.

Β 

Send the letter from the library and kill it dead.

We could do with some help from you.

Resolvecall attended our property this afternoon without prior notice.Β 

They wouldn't speak to my hubby as the debt is in my name.Β 

I wasn't available so they left a card.Β 

Regarding the statute barred letter, do I send it to Intrum and Resolvecall?Β 

I have no proof it is statute barred as I no longer have any paperwork.Β 

No idea if Intrum own the debt or they are debt collectors on behalf of Halifax.

Intrum buy debts so they're most likely the owner.

It's on them to prove it's not Statute Barred so send the letter.

Use the template letter found in our library. Edit with the relevant info etc and send that.

Do you know when the last payment was also?

I am using the template letter.Β 

I was just asking if it needs to be marked without prejudice as it is in the template but seems unnecessary.

I have no idea when the last payment was but it would have been many years ago.

The original default with Halifax was probably 2009.

NO DCA has ANY legal powers whatsoever on ANY debt no matter what it's Type

and they

are NOT and can NEVERΒ  be BAILIFFS. even if a debt has been to court..

Resolve call have one of my ancient, ancient debts that went statute barred in 2020, I've had a couple of door visits, first one just left a card, second one I spoke to, i told her how old the debt was and she rolled her eyes, and apologised pretty sincerely I thought. Not heard anything from them since.
