    • Is all of this actually on the signage? Don't remember seeing that much detail on other threads.
    • If I have learnt one thing from this forum, it's not to call and communicate via email. I passed this info on to her and they are pushing for her to call them.    "Unfortunately, you will need to call us. The conversation won’t be so black and white as to therefore type over email. In a nutshell we can confirm that the request to not pay for 3 months we cannot put in place"  I emailed them back on her behalf and said that what ever is discussed over the phone will need to be put in an email so that she can review it properly. No decisions will be made on that phone call.    "Once we speak to you on the phone we will follow up with an email to confirm the options discussed. [Phone number]"   Why are they pushing for a phone call? If its not so black and white, why can they then follow up with an email?  
    • Appreciate input Andy, updated: IN THE ******** County Court Claim No. [***] BETWEEN: LC Asset 2 S.A.R.L CLAIMANT AND [***] DEFENDANT ************ _________________________ ________ WITNESS STATEMENT OF [***] _________________________ ________ I, [***], being the Defendant in this case will state as follows;     I make this Witness Statement in support of my defence in this claim.   1. I understand that the claimant is an Assignee, a buyer of defunct or bad debts, which are bought on mass portfolios at a much-reduced cost to the amount claimed and which the original creditors have already written off as a capital loss and claimed against taxable income as confirmed in the claimant’s witness statement exhibit by way of the Deed of Assignment. As an assignee or creditor as defined in section 189 of the CCA this applies to this new requirement on assignment of rights. This means that when an assignee purchases debts (or otherwise acquires rights under a credit agreement) it also acquires certain obligations to the borrower including the duty to comply with CCA requirements (such as the rules on statements and notices and other post-contractual information). The assignee becomes the creditor under the agreement. This ensures that essential consumer protections under the CCA cannot be circumvented by assigning the debt to a third party. 2. The Claim relates to an alleged Credit Card agreement between the Defendant and Bank of Scotland plc. Save insofar of any admittance it is accepted that the Defendant has had contractual agreements with Bank of Scotland plc in the past, the Defendant is unaware as to what alleged debt the Claimant refers. The Defendant has not entered any contract with the Claimant. 3. The Defendant requested a copy of the CCA on the 24/12/2022 along with the standard fee of £1.00 postal order, to which the defendant received a reply from the Claimant dated 06/02/2023. To this date, the Claimant has failed to disclose a valid agreement and proof as per their claim that this is enforceable, that Default Notice and Notice of Assignment were sent to and received by the Defendant, on which their claim relies. The Claimant is put to strict proof to verify and confirm that the exhibit *** is a true copy of the agreement and are the true Terms and Conditions as issued at the time of inception of the online application and execution of the agreement. 4. Point 3 is noted. The Claimant pleads that a default notice has been served upon the defendant as evidenced by Exhibit [***]. The claimant is put to strict proof to verify the service of the above in accordance with s136 and s196 Law of Property Act 1925. 5. Point 6 is noted and disputed. The Defendant cannot recall ever having received the notice of assignment as evidenced in the exhibit marked ***. The claimant is put to strict proof to verify the service of the above in accordance with s136 and s196 Law of Property Act 1925. 6. Point 11 is noted and disputed. See 3. 7. Point 12 is noted, the Defendant doesn’t recall receiving contact where documentation is provided as per the Claimants obligations under CCA. In addition, the Claimant pleads letters were sent on dates given, yet those are not the letters evidenced in their exhibits *** 8. Point 13 is noted and denied. Claimant is put to strict proof to prove allegations. 9. The Claimant did not provide a true copy of the CCA in response to the Defendants request of 21/12/2022. The Claimant further claims that the documents are sufficient to pursue a Judgement and are therefore copies of original documents in their possession. Conclusion 10. Without the Claimant providing a valid true copy of the executed Credit agreement that complies with the CCA, the Claimant has no grounds on which to enforce this alleged debt. 11. The Claimant has been unjustly enriched at the expense of the Defendant by purchasing bulk debt at a greatly reduced cost and subrogating for the original creditor in trying to recuperate the full amount of the original debt 12. The Defendant was not given ample evidence to prove the debt and therefore was not required to enter settlement negotiations. Should the debt be proved in the future, the Defendant is willing to enter such negotiations with the Claimant. On receipt of this claim I could not recall the precise details of the agreement or any debt and sought clarity from the claimant by way of a Section 78 request. The Claimant failed to comply. I can only assume as this was due to the Claimant not having any enforceable documentation and issuing a claim in hope of an undefended default judgment.   Statement of Truth I, ********, the Defendant, believe the facts stated within this Witness Statement to be true. I understand that proceedings for contempt of court may be brought against anyone who makes, or causes to be made, a false statement in a document verified by a statement of truth without an honest belief in it’s truth. Signed: _________________________ _______ Dated: _____________________
    • Morning,  I am hoping someone can help, I am posting on behalf of my friend so I will try and provide as much info as possible.  Due health reasons, she is currently not working and unable to pay her contractual car finance payments. She emailed 247 Money and asked for a 3 month payment holiday, they refused this straight away with no reasons as to why. They have told her that instead she can make a payment of £200. She is currently getting £400+ a month ssp so this is not acceptable. She went back to them and explained she cannot make this payment and they have not offered an alternative plan. Its £200 or she falls into default.  She is now panicking as she does not want her car to be taken away. What options does she have?  Thank you,

    • 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.

Hi everyone :)

 

I'm new to the Barclays forum as I've been stuck in the RBOS forum since December trying to get back my charges. In the meantime, I've decided to claim from Barclays for my sister who's managed to get herself into a bit of a tizz with how they've treated her account. Barclays SAR's, here I come!

 

Good luck all!

Thanks seaside lady! (love your avatar!!)

 

I'm also claiming from Halifax for myself but they're taking ages to send me my SAR and I sent off for this early December and i'm still waiting!!!! Phoned them up today and they said it should arrive by 26 February. This is after threatening them and reporting them to the Information Commissioner. They reckon they haven't received any request from me. Crossing fingers as that one will be a big sum (if you take into account compounded interest) but i'm trying to go back beyond 6 years but i'll have to see what type of statements I get from them first!

Good luck with your niece as well... I swear, if any one else asks me to claim back their charges for them, I shall be charging them interest!:D

Same here... I used to waste my time on gossip sites (sad I know) but I figure getting my money back on this site will benefit me all the more. :D

The world would certainly know if I ever lost a case to these banks as i will shave my head off (a la Ms Spears) in protest!

Hey there

 

Quick update:

 

Received Notice of Hearing on 4 August stating the following:

 

TAKE NOTICE that the Preliminary Hearing will take place on

 

17 August at 10am

 

at Romford County Court

 

The following directions apply to this claim:

 

a) Each party shall delivery to every other party and the court offices copies of all documents on which he intends to rely at the hearing

 

b) the copies shall be delivered by 4pm on wednesday 22 August

 

c) The claimant is to prepare a schedule setting out the details of all relevant charges, including amoutns and ates, to be included with the copy documents.

 

d) The original documents shall be brought to the hearing

 

e) The court must be informed immediately if the case is settled by agreement beforre hearing date.

 

As i was puzzled with the dates, ie request of documents AFTER the hearing, I called the court who said this is just a preliminary hearing to decide what is to be done - has anyone ever heard of this? I also asked whether it'd be a one-to-one and the lady said she didn't know.

 

Any thoughts?

 

This sounds like I need to provide the court and Barclays with a court bundle by 22 August. But why a preliminary hearing?? Do you think they'll just tell us it's been stayed?

Thanks Saintly... I called again and again they said it's just a preliminary hearing and to provide what is stated (woman sounded well stroppy!) - I find it odd but I'll just follow what's said. Although I filled in the new AQ, I've noticed they've only requested that both Barclays and myself provide charges info but not the rest. Do you reckon I should submit a full court bundle just in case, especially as i've been reading up on it in preparation?

Hi Marcelle

 

It's a tircky one because the Preliminary is on the Friday and court bundles required by the next Wednesday otherwise I would have suggested you wait til the hearing to quantify whether the directions were correct.

 

However, it is always best to play safe and always always comply within the time frame to orders from the court.

 

a) Each party shall delivery to every other party and the court offices copies of all documents on which he intends to rely at the hearing

 

This is asking for your full court bundle so I would print take all three copies to the hearing so you can hand them to Barclays and court in person (saves on massive postage);

 

 

c) The claimant is to prepare a schedule setting out the details of all relevant charges, including amounts and dates, to be included with the copy documents.

 

Fine, this will be part of your bundle in a) anyway.

 

d) The original documents shall be brought to the hearing

 

Again, your bundle will be made up of all the original copies so once more, this is covered in a)

 

:)

OK, my sister received in the post today a letter from Barclays saying they will be staying the case pending outcome of OFT....

 

The prelim hearing is this Friday 17 August at Romford County Court who aparently are handling stays on a case by case basis. But, as the bundle to each party is due by Wednesday 22 August I was going to hand delivery this on the 17th but I'm thinking Barclays will not turn up. Do you think the Judge will stay the case and if he does and I contest this, do I have to tell him I will be applying for the stay to be lifted at the time or do I just accept and fill in the N224?

I'd give the court another ring to see if your hearing tomorrow has been cancelled as this happened to me and the court didn't inform me.

 

My preliminary hearing was schedulled for today at 10:30am at Shrewsbury County Court and after a letter from Barclays like yourselves I contacted the court yesterday only to be told the hearing was now cancelled and my case stayed.

Hey Belly... just rang the court and they're still going ahead tomorrow. I have no idea what to expect but have been reading through hundreds of threads and hope that Barclays settle (fingers crossed). However, as I know Barclays have stayed, I am getting to grips with the argument on how to argue the stay and I've noticed some people have won and others not!

Hey there.... just posted this on Sarah's thread but this is what happened this morning...

 

I went along with my sister but the usher told me I was forbidden to speak to the Judge directly but only to sister and the Barc rep. Anway, we had a preliminary hearing and it was allocated for 10am but we weren't seen until 12.45pm (how annoying).... anyway the Judge was basicially on the banks side by stating that Romford County Court is very busy and we just don't have time for all these claims for bank charges and as the outcome would be decided in January there's no difference in time whether we overrule the stay or not!!!! My sis told him about infringement on Human Rights and how the only reason why she got into this situation is because of their charges in the first place but then he agreed it's only a small portion of money being claimed but it's best to wait until the outcome next year. Feeling defeated, i said to the Barc rep (as i was forbidden to speak to the judge) it may take longer than a year - maybe even 3 and he said not it won't it'll take a year max for the outcome. Then the judge said we can appeal against the stay and he'll send a form out to us within 2 days. But the thing is, my sister handed both him and the Barclays rep the Stay Appeal found on here and of course he didn't really have the time to read it whilst the case was going on. I even said it benefits the bank more as you still will be charging penalty on her account if she goes overdrawn.

Judge just wasn't having any of it and it really seemed he was on the bank's side. I would rather of him send that blanket letter out to us stating that the court will be complying with the Banks on the stay until it's remedied instead of wasting our time!!!! I also didn't even get to ask for expenses!!!!!!

 

I was supposed to hand my court bundle to both Barclays and the Judge by next Wednesday and even forgotten to ask whether this is still necessary.... I will have to call the court now.
