    • Apologies dx100uk  I did not put the answers in red  Thank you all for your patience. H
    • Which Court have you received the claim from ? Northampton  Name of the Claimant ? Overdales solicitors  How many defendant's  joint or self ?  Self Date of issue – top right hand corner of the claim form – this in order to establish the time line you need to adhere to.  13 may 2024 What is the claim for – the reason they have issued the claim? the claim is for the sum of £6163.61due by the defendant under an agreement regulated by the consumer credit act 1974 for hsbc uk bank plc. Account 4546384809766042. The defendant faild to maintain contractual payments required by the agreement and a default notice was served under s 87(1)  of the consumer credit act 1974 which as not been compiled with. The dbt was legally assigned to the Claimant on 23/08/23, notice on which as been given to the defendant.  The claim includes statutory interest under S.69 of the county courts act 1984 at a rate of 8% per annum from the date of assignment to the date of issue of these proceedings in the sum of £117.53 the Claimant claims the sum of £6281.14. Have you received prior notice of a claim being issued pursuant to paragraph 3 of the PAPDC (Pre Action Protocol) ?   Not to my knowledge. Have you changed your address since the time at which the debt referred to in the claim was allegedly incurred?  No Do you recall how you entered into the agreement...On line /In branch/By post ?  Online but it was for a smaller amount they kept on increasing this with me asking Has the claim been issued by the original creditor or was the account assigned and it is the Debt purchaser who has issued the claim.  It was assigned to a debt collection agency  Were you aware the account had been assigned – did you receive a Notice of Assignment? yes  Did you receive a Default Notice from the original creditor?  Yes I also made offers to pay original creditor a smaller amount but was not replied to Have you been receiving statutory notices headed “Notice of Sums in Arrears”  or " Notice of Arrears "– at least once a year ?  No Why did you cease payments? I was made redundant and got a less paid job I also spent some time on furlough during covid and spent some 3 months on ssp off work. What was the date of your last payment?  May 2021 Did you communicate any financial problems to the original creditor and make any attempt to enter into a debt management plan? Yes at the time I communicated with all my creditor's that I was running out of funds to pay the original agreements once my redundancy money ran out that was when my accounts defaulted. I then wrote to all my creditor's with pro rata offers of payments but debt collectors took over the accounts.
    • Just an update for all. I received about a letter every other week, increasing in threat levels. Then I hadn't had one for a about two weeks, then Saturday received a carbon copy of the very first letter they sent me in February. Made me laugh, rinse and repeat. 
    • So, your response was not received by the SCP as you did not send it with a valid stamp. Therefore, from my two option in post #14, the first option is the only one available to you, but you do not have the option of asking to be sentenced at the fixed penalty level as the reason the SCP did not receive your response was down to you. Here's a reminder of what to do: Respond to the SJPN by pleading “Not Guilty” to both charges. In the “Reasons for pleading Not Guilty” box state that you are willing to plead guilty to the speeding charge providing, and only providing, the “Fail to Provide Driver's Details" (FtP) charge is dropped. This is a tried and tested method to deal with your problem and is almost always successful. Before the pandemic it was necessary to attend court to do this "deal" because it needs the agreement of the police prosecutor.. During the pandemic courts made every effort to have as few  people as possible attend and they began doing this deal under the "Single Justice" procedure without the defendant's attendance. Some courts have carried this procedure on whilst others have reverted to a personal attendance being necessary. If you are required to attend, your case will be taken out of the SJ procedure and you will be given a date for a hearing in the normal Magistrates' Court. If that is the way they do it in the area involved you will have to attend, see the prosecutor and offer your "deal" in person.

    • 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.

in a day or two you will receive from the court - a transfer to your local court, a copy of dg's defense and an allocation questionaire. look on the aq for the deadline - that's the important bit. you will fill it out and send it back in (with another 100 if the claim is over 1500)- (add it to your claim). don't be in a hurry to send it in - wait until it is almost due and in the meantime - ring dg and see if they received your breakdown, and then ring a couple of days later to see how it's going and then a couple of days later to see if they need any more info from you - get the idea? it's to keep your claim up near the top. they often make an offer just before the aq is due - and no sense paying the 100 only to have them offer and you have to say oh, yes, by the way that's another 100 because i sent off the aq. so hold on a bit.

 

as for the aq - start looking at this:Allocation Questionnaires - A guide to completion a step by step guide to filling it in.

and this:New strategy for Allocation Questionaires read other threads and we'll be along later to tell you how this applies - keep posts 2 and 3 handy.

Hi there everyone - just wanted a bit of reassuarnce that I'm doing the right thing really.

 

I have already written two letters to HSBC anf recieved the standard letter back from them saying they are looking into it. Yesterday I filed my claim on MoneyClaim and paid the £120.

 

I'm a bit unsure of what to do now. Do I need to send the statement of charges to Moneyclaim now? Or wait until they get back to me (i'm not even sure who my local court is).

 

I'm feeling a little bit out of my depth, but am determined to go all the way!

when you get your paperwork from the court - send them 2 copies of your schedule of charges - referencing your claim number.

the solicitors have 14 days from the issue date to file an acknowledgment - they will and that gives them another 14 days added to the first 14 in which to file a defense. at the acknol. page 2 is dg's address - so when you get the acknowledgment send them a breakdown as well and reference your claim number.

 

best to start your own thread in the hsbc forum - just look for the new thread tab - that way we can help you and find you much more easily.

keep track of everything - let us know how you are getting on.

Hi Laterus

 

Think I've got it sorted, I was sent the N150, my total claim is over 5k but thats after interest.

 

I'm filling the form in with teh relevant bits, some feed back before it goes would be great if you have a spare bit of time. (Jimmy no probs on the gatecrash good luck).

 

Location of trail : Birmingham. I am a private individual, and claiming against a company who carries on business in this location,I feel the case should be heard locally to my residence.

 

Track: The claim figure is below £5000 before interest is added.

 

Proposed Directions : I have attachted a list of proposed directions (the ones recomeended)

 

Other Information : The Claimant respectfully suggests that special directions may be made as per the attached draft order.

If ordered, the Claimant believes the proposed directions will further the Overriding Objectives in that they identify the most fundamental issues in dispute (as detailed below), and allow them to be assessed in advance of the hearing so that this claim may proceed justly and expeditiously.

- The crux upon which this claim rests is the actual loss suffered by the Defendant as a result of the contractual breach from which its charges arise. If the Defendant cannot substantiate the cost of each charge as proportionate to its loss incurred, it has charged contractual penalties contrary to the Unfair Terms in Consumer Contracts Regulations 1999 and common law principles established since the early 1900's.

- In the event that the Defendant's charges were accepted as being a fee for a contractual service (which is refuted), examination of its true costs is required to determine whether the price is reasonable as required by the Supply of Goods and Services Act 1982.

The Claimant believes that if the Defendant has the serious intention of defending this claim at trial as is indicated by its defence, that it is imcumbent on it to disclose such information. Further, the proposed directions are already routinely ordered in claims of this nature in the Mercantile Court in London, as well as in small claims track cases in Leicester, Derby, Chesterfield, Northampton and Mansfield County Courts.

As the law relating to contractual penalties is long established, the Claimant believes the outstanding issues to be of fact. Accordingly, the Claimant respectfully requests that this claim be allocated to the small claims track, and estimates that the hearing of the claim should last no longer than one hour.

 

Hows that? Also do I intend to make any applications in the future?

looks fine to me - might add in the third last line about it being just over the 5k mark. we found a good sentence that netty used - look back over her thread (if you can stand it!) to where she was filing - hers too was just over 5k and the n150. that's all i see at first read - i'll look again later.

Hello all, AQ forms all sent off with next day delivery on Thursday 15th March, AQ deadline was 18th March so I'll ring the Court on Monday and see if DG have filled theirs in time.

 

Cheers

The most likely thing to happen is that DG won't file their AQ they then get an order from the judge to file it within the next 2 weeks. Effectively this just gives them an extension to the AQ deadline. Not particularly fair but that is the way it is going at the moment!!

Just rang Birmingham County Court to check they had recieved my AQ (They have although it hasn't gone down to the Judge yet). DG haven't sent theirs in despite the deadline of the 18th March.

 

I also rang DG on 01214552701 and left a message asking them to give me a call back to discuss their AQ.

 

I really opose the fact they are allowed to miss the deadline with no penalty! As their client gives no such liency to its customers.

Howdy Everyone

 

Rachel from DG returned my call today, I asked if they have recieved my AQ which they have, I also asked if they were going to file their AQ soon. Apparently they are and will be in contact shortly.

 

Lattie your AQ post is brilliant.
