    • They did reply to my defence stating it would fail and enclosed copies of NOA, DN Term letter and account statements. All copies of T&C's that could be reconstructions and the IP address on there resolves to the town where MBNA offices are, not my location
    • My defence was standard no paperwork:   1.The Defendant contends that the particulars of claim are generic in nature. The Defendant accordingly sets out its case below and relies on CPR r 16.5 (3) in relation to any particular allegation to which a specific response has not been made. 2. Paragraph 1 is noted. The Defendant has had a contractual relationship with MBNA Limited in the past. The Defendant does not recognise the reference number provided by the claimant within its particulars and has sought verification from the claimant who is yet to comply with requests for further information. 3. Paragraph 2 is denied. The Defendant maintains that a default notice was never received. The Claimant is put to strict proof to that a default notice was issued by MBNA Limited and received by the Defendant. 4. Paragraph 3 is denied. The Defendant is unaware of any legal assignment or Notice of Assignment allegedly served from either the Claimant or MBNA Limited. 5. On the 02/01/2023 the Defendant requested information pertaining to this claim by way of a CCA 1974 Section 78 request. The claimant is yet to respond to this request. On the 19/05/2023 a CPR 31.14 request was sent to Kearns who is yet to respond. To date, 02/06/2023, no documentation has been received. The claimant remains in default of my section 78 request. 6. It is therefore denied with regards to the Defendant owing any monies to the Claimant, the Claimant has failed to provide any evidence of proof of assignment being sent/ agreement/ balance/ breach or termination requested by CPR 31.14, therefore the Claimant is put to strict proof to: (a) show how the Defendant entered into an agreement; and (b) show and evidence the nature of breach and service of a default notice pursuant to Section 87(1) CCA1974 (c) show how the claimant has reached the amount claimed for; and (d) show how the Claimant has the legal right, either under statute or equity to issue a claim; 7. As per Civil Procedure Rule 16.5(4), it is expected that the Claimant prove the allegation that the money is owed. 8. On the alternative, as the Claimant is an assignee of a debt, it is denied that the Claimant has the right to lay a claim due to contraventions of Section 136 of the Law of Property Act and Section 82A of the consumer credit Act 1974. 9. By reasons of the facts and matters set out above, it is denied that the Claimant is entitled to the relief claimed or any relief.
    • Monika the first four pages of the Private parking section have at least 12 of our members who have also been caught out on this scam site. That's around one quarter of all our current complaints. Usually we might expect two current complaints for the same park within 4 pages.  So you are in good company and have done well in appealing to McDonalds in an effort to resolve the matter without having  paid such a bunch of rogues. Most people blindly pay up. Met . Starbucks and McDonalds  are well aware of the situation and seem unwilling to make it easier for motorists to avoid getting caught. For instance, instead of photographing you, if they were honest and wanted you  to continue using their services again, they would have said "Excuse me but if you are going to go to Mc donalds from here, it will cost you £100." But no they kett quiet and are now pursuing you for probably a lot more than £100 now. They also know thst  they cannot charge anything over the amount stated on the car park signs. Their claims for £160 or £170 are unlawful yet so many pay that to avoid going to Court. When the truth is that Met are unlikely to take them to Court since they know they will lose. The PCNs are issued on airport land which is covered by Byelaws so only the driver can be pursued, not the keeper. But they keep writing to you as they do not know who was driving unless you gave it away when you appealed. Even if they know you were driving they should still lose in Court for several reasons. The reason we ask you to fill out our questionnaire is to help you if MET do decide to take you to Court in the end. Each member who visited the park may well have different experiences while there which can help when filling out a Witness statement [we will help you with that if it comes to it.] if you have thrown away the original PCN  and other paperwork you obviously haven't got a jerbil or a guinea pig as their paper makes great litter boxes for them.🙂 You can send an SAR to them to get all the information Met have on you to date. Though if you have been to several sites already, you may have done that by now. In the meantime, you will be being bombarded by illiterate debt collectors and sixth rate solicitors all threatening you with ever increasing amounts as well as being hung drawn and quartered. Their letters can all be safely ignored. On the odd chance that you may get a Letter of Claim from them just come back to us and we will get you to send a snotty letter back to them so that they know you are not happy, don't care a fig for their threats and will see them off in Court if they finally have the guts to carry on. If you do have the original PCN could you please post it up, carefully removing your name. address and car registration number but including dates and times. If not just click on the SAR to take you to the form to send to Met.

    • Hello CAG Team, I'm adding the contents of the claim to this thread, but wanted to open the thread with an urgent question: Do I have to supply a WS for a claim with a court date that states " at the hearing the court will consider allocation and, time permitting, give an early neutral evaluation of the case" ? letter is an N24 General Form of Judgement or Order, if so, then I've messed up again. Court date 25 May 2024 The letter from court does not state (like the other claims I have) that I must provide WS within 28 days.. BUT I have recently received a WS from Link for it! making me think I do need to!??

    • 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 is harresment, there is plenty your sister can do to stop it. She should write to Welcome, and tell them to stop phoning her. Harresment is a criminal offence!

Hi,

 

I am really sorry to hear about your sister's experience, I imagine this is causing her endless stress and grief. Particularly as she is trying to provide for the family without any support from her ex.

 

Tell your sister not to put up with this bullying, intimidation and harassment a moment longer. What this ar**h**e is doing is unlawful and illegal. You must send a letter to the Head Office immediately by guaranteed next day delivery, so they can't deny receiving it, telling them that they must cease and desist from this behaviour, otherwise the matter will be reported to the police and Trading Standards and all other relevant regulatory bodies.

 

State in the letter that this guy's actions are a breach of S1 of the Protection From Harassment Act 1997. This behaviour also contravenes S40 of The Administration of Justice Act 1970 regarding the collection of debts. Also advise your sister to state that she is withdrawing permission for any of the Company's representatives to enter onto her land. So that means, he cannot walk into the garden to knock on the door and has absolutely no legal right to enter into the property.This would constitute trespass and tell them so!

 

Under no circumstances should your sister leave the back door open just in case he turns up again. Your sister must always have a phone with her. If he turns up your sister must tell him he is trespassing and his actions constitute harassment, which she can have him prosecuted for. She must then tell him to leave immediately otherwise she will call the police. If he refuses, don't give it a second thought RING THE POLICE IMMEDIATELY! If you do have to do this, simply say there is a man outside acting in a threatening and abusive manner. The reason he is there you can explain later, just in case they are a bit reluctant to visit.

 

Your sister must be proactive in this matter, he will keep turning up as long as he thinks his threats will force your sister to pay. Your sister should also do a CCA request to establish if there is a credit agreement, if there isn't there's no debt. A DPA request would also be advisable to get statements for the lifetime of the a/c and all notes on the a/c generally.

 

We have all had dealings with companies that flout the law and use disgraceful (and illegal) tactics to get money. The key to stopping the harassment, is to read around the forum to gain an understanding of the law in this area. These companies thrive when they can convince people that what they are doing is perfectly legal. They use threats as leverage to get you to pay, if you resist they threaten Court. All these things are designed to frighten, so what do many people do? They pay up! Without questioning anything! Lets face it if you're scared, the last thing on your mind is posing questions. You probably don't know what Q's to ask either, which is perfectly understandable. knowledge of what is lawful and what isn't will help your sister to overcome the paralysing fear which encourages many people to simply pay up when they can't afford it and even where its unlawful for the company to be collecting the debt.

 

Remember question everything, believe absolutely nothing that this company says. They are no more familiar with the truth than I am with quantam physics!:eek: Above all fight back and oh, fight back!:D

 

I hope this is helpful and keep us updated on your sister's progress.

 

Laiste.:)

i dont think he walks in but i will ask her when she rings me back in a min. she was suppose to take £100 to him to day because in the month of dec he said dont worry about payment with it being xmas. But we work in residential home and she went to a residents funeral today and her car (the pistons gone lol never rains less it pours) is off the road she lives in country and so far when i spoke to her hasn't been in to pay him he has rang her home phone already asking for her and her mobile rang well i was talking to her not sure if it was him ... once she tells me he wanted her daughter to catch bus in to town get the money for him and then bring it home to my sisters and he would send someone out to fetch it :shock:

The thing that worrys her most is the car loan was secured on her house and he says that if she dont pay they will take her house off her ...:mad:

Steph

p.s Thank you for all your help you dont no how much it helps i knew it was harrassment but i didnt no where to go for a letter cos i'm not very good at putting letters together and i no my sister is just buryin her head in the sand and embarressed about it ,i told her tell everybody about it let them no all about DAVE from welcome finance ;)

Hi

 

Your sister urgently needs to know just what Welcome have in their files. Welcome would have a long hard time trying to repossess her house, I would think.

Hi again,

 

There is no reason whatsoever for your sister to be embarassed! Most people have debts and an awful lot get into difficulty because things happen in life that are beyond one's control! This moron is getting away with this because he knows your sister is frightened and embarassed. Its almost like a little secret and he exerts control with the threat of repossession etc. Like I said earlier believe nothing that this guy or his company states until they back up their assertions with proof. I personally doubt that this debt has been secured on your sister's property, but she needs to do the CCA and DPA requests to find out what's going on for sure. You would not ordinarily get a loan for a car and have that loan secured on your property. I don't know your sister's circumstances and I will say that the secured loans market is not an area I've had dealings with. I do know however that this sort of behaviour is illegal and requires immediate action on your sister's part. The only way to sort this out is to start sending the letters necessary to get the information to make a case against them.

 

To be honest panicking is a waste of time and your sister's energy and she needs to concentrate her efforts on taking control of the situation. Take decisive action and DAVE will soon stop what he's doing.:mad: Your sister's objective however, should be to establish if there is indeed a debt. This may sound like a contradiction in terms, but if there are penalty charges on the a/c and a claim for harassment could wipe out any debt. Better still if they can't produce the credit agreement, there is no debt for your sister to pay!:grin:

 

You both need to take a deep breath, don't panic and face the situation with determination. You can sort this out, there are many people on here that have sorted out debt problems with companies and there will be many that will offer you help and assistance. You are not alone and there is a wealth of advice on here.

 

Laiste.:-)

Just a quick thought, for £3.00 you can search the land registry at

 

Land Registry : House prices

 

Purchase the title register for your property. If Welcome have a charge on your house it should show here.

Letter re : harrassing visits....

 

Dear XXXXXXXXX

 

Please note that from this date forward, I am only prepared to communicate with you in writing. Should it be your intention to continue arranging “doorstep calls”, please remember that there is only an implied license under English Common Law for certain people to visit me on my property without express permission; the postman and people asking for directions etc (Armstrong v. Sheppard and Short Ltd [1959] 2 Q.B. per Lord Evershed M.R.).

 

Please therefore take note that, I revoke license under English Common Law for you, or your representatives to visit me at my property and if you do so again without my permission, you will then be liable to damages for a tort of trespass. You would also be conspiring in a trespass if you sent someone to visit me nevertheless.

 

Should it be necessary, I will obtain an injunction.

 

Yours (ever so ;) ) sincerely,

 

XXXXXXXXX

It's the kind of thing they come up with from time to time to scare folk into thinking they have no choices....

 

Good luck with the letters... this DAVE sounds so puffed up, he might even burst if someone took a pin to him ! :grin:

 

I would be deeply ashamed to admit to giving birth to something that grew up to work for a DCA....
