    • 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.

Been looking about the forum for a little while now bit confusing but think i have got the gist of it, sent my first letter to my local branch on 11/01 requesting my statements over the last six years for two accounts along with a cheque for £10. So i guess its just a case of being patient now given them the 40 days to respond. Will post again once they arrive and post on every stage of my claim let you know how how i get on and if i need any help and advice as im going all the way for a full refund on all charges on the 2 accounts.:)

Give them a ring and chase them up, it looks like you are getting quite close to the 40 days so let them know if you do not receive all your statements you will be contacting the information commissioner.

Thanks for this posting, Josamolly. I have just joined CAG and am about to embark on the process with Bank of Scotland. Your links have answered the questions I was concerned about - especially the Scottish element to claims. I'll start my own little thread when SAR sent.

Kind Regards!

Hi, on the prelim approach letter, it has overdraught interest, how do you work this out as my statements just read charges as notified? Anyone got the link for the spreadsheet to send of with the prelim approach letter.

 

Thanks in Advance ;)

Most people do not bother claiming overdraft interest, so just take this bit of text out of the prelim letter. Go to the template library, then click on spreadsheets, all you need is there, try the England - Simple - Excel.

Hi JJ:)

The 8 weeks to look into it is normal-just carry on with your schedule sending LBA after 14 days.

Have a look at the Scotland forum,you can claim in England if you have an English address ,PO BOx for correspondence but you would have to be prepared to go there if it went to court.Because of multiple claims being thrown out at some Scottish courts then some advise claiming through FOS.

Hope this helps

Hi JJ

Normal letter that we all get.

Yes, keep to YOUR timescales(Monday) as they will try and fob you off time and time hoping youll give up..trying to go faster than the 14 days might mess your claim up so be patient.

Have a look at my thread.Halifax have foned me this morning offering full amount which was 6 years! (no interest cos I am 1 day off court action!!!)but this is what theyll do-keep you till the last minute.So 14 days after Monday you could be getting a phone call!Hope you do .Glad you're keepin on, cos its worthit!

just give us a shout if you need any help.
