    • I'm not sure we were on standard tariffs - I've uploaded as many proofs as I can for the ombudsman - ovo called last night uping the compensation to 100 from 50 pounds for the slip in customer service however they won't acknowledge the the problem them not acknowledging a fault has caused nor are they willing to remedy anything as they won't accept the meter or formula was wrong.   I'd appreciate more details on the economy 7 approach and I'll update the ombudsman with any information you can share. 
    • To re-iterate and highlight my urgent question on this one: The N24 from the court did not include any instructions to submit paperwork 28 days before the date, unlike the N157 received for other smaller claims. Do I have to submit a WS for this court date? Link has!...
    • No, reading the guidance online it says to wait for a letter from the court. Should I wait or submit the directions? BTW, I assume that the directions are a longer version of the particular of claim accompanied by evidence, correct?
    • Thanks for opening, it's been another rough year for my family and I've procastinated a little.. Due to the age of my defaults on this and other accounts (circa 2021), I really need to avoid a CCJ as that will be another 6 years of credit issues. Mediation failed as I played the 'not enough info to make a decision' however during the call for some reason they did offer settlement at 80%, I refused. this has been allocated to small claims track, court date is June 3 and I've received their WS. I'm starting on my WS. They do appear to have provided everything required of them (even if docs could be reconstructions). Not really sure what my argument is anymore but I do want to attend court and see this through. Should a judgement be made against me then I will clear the balance within 30 days and have the CCJ removed - this is still possible isn't it? I'm going to be reading up today and tomorrow and hope you can provide me some guidance in the meantime. Wonder what your advice would be given the documents they have provided? I am now in a position to clear the debt either by lump sum or a few large installments - Is this something i should look into at this late stage? Thanks as always in advance
    • I have now received my SAR. It includes a great deal of information! Is there a time limit on how long account information is kept and/or can be provided to debtors? I have received many account statements which were not previously sent to me. I remember that the creditor should provide explanations of any acronyms and abbreviations that maybe used in the documents. Is this still the case? Also what, if any, are the regulations in regard to adding fees to a debt? Can fees be added to a debt after the court has approved a charge on a property. Perhaps due to the numerous owners of the debt, many payments I made were not properly recorded on the account, some were entered over a year after the payment was made! Following the Legal Charge, I paid every month until my payments were refused. I am trying to compute the over payments, but the addition of fees etc. is confusing me. Any comments and/or help would be appreciated.

    • 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.

Well done for winning, I am reading all peoples posts, as I want to take action against Nat West, and Yorkshire Bank and about 5 credit cards.(if I didn't have the charges I probabley wouldn't need the credit cards in the first place!!!! I haven't started yet, and must say I am a little confused, I know firstly that I must contact the companies to find out excactly what I have been charged, before I can start anything..... and this I will do today! Lets get the ball rolling....and the printer printing! Fingers crossed, I will be as lucky as you people one day!

Mind you, then again, would it not be better in writing??? That way you have proof.... plus you have to request that they have to show you any person intervention, which there probably won't be, and that way you can show you have requested this!

'Hiya all I can say that if I can do this (with lots of help mind you) anybody can... I now have quite a few other claims going but this was my biggest and "test" on to see if the process works... and it does... my bank account is now living proof that it can be done...

 

My advice is dont let it get you down, I worked though everything a step at a time, reading other threads helped me so much so I knew what was coming... and when to expect it and what to do if it didnt happen that way...

 

Send your first letters out and sit back and wait, but while your waiting keep reading, its amazing just how quickly everything clicks into place and well you know what your facing...

 

If you need help ask.... I for one now gone through the complete process am willing to help anybody that needs help....

 

good luck with your claims

 

Lynne

Hiya, My original claim was for £3500 that was for 6 yrs worth of charges, I was amazed when I totalled it all up... mind you Im not that upset it went all of the way... I ended up with just under £5k with the interest...

 

Im still shocked that natwest insist on taking it all of the way costing them more money that they would have originally had to pay...

 

ah well, I thought of it as a great savings plan with a really good rate of interest....

 

keep going, at times it feels like its a never ending cycle... but it does end, and your account ends up with a credit....

 

My advice mind you is to always send everything recorded delivery... and keep a copy.... and check that they have recieved it... I havent sent anything via email... I dont trust them not to hit the delete button instead of dealing with it....

 

best wishes

 

Lynne

Hi Lynne

Thanks for the support, and reading that you yourself have already won, then that gives me the push to think I can do that! It is a bit scary though, but like you said, I will keep reading and asking for help! I have made a start and sent for my Dpa, (I think thats the right word) for 2 of my bank accounts. I am so fed up of the charges, I can't get my everyday bills paid for them, and if I don't put a stop to them, then the bank certainly isn't going to!

Anyway, thanks in advance! Lets hope I don't become too much of a pest!

Well done Lynne - a gripping read!

 

I'm helping my girlfriend with her claim against Nat West and can't wait to get her money back.

 

Everyone who posts and wins is an inspiration - congratulations and thanks for the belief that it can be done!

Kylestyle

 

The first thing you need to write is a Data Protection Act request so you have details of all the charges the back has levied against your account over the past x years, as well as details of any manual interventions. The template for this, and other letters, can be found in the Templates section of the site, here http://www.consumeractiongroup.co.uk/forum/bank-templates-library/

 

Once you've sent that letter off, I would advise spending a good few hours familiarising yourself with the site by reading the Step by Step guide in the FAQS here: http://www.consumeractiongroup.co.uk/forum/faqs-please-read-these/ as well as reading through others cases where you can glean plenty of useful advice.

 

You should also, unless you already have, start your own thread 'Kylestyle vs Natwest' where you can post questions, and updates on your own battle with Natwest.

 

Good luck!
