    • Thank you for your reply, DX! I was not under the impression that paying it off would remove it from my file. My file is already trashed so it would make very little difference to any credit score. I am not certain if I can claim compensation for a damaged credit score though. Or for them reporting incorrect information for over 10 years? The original debt has been reported since 2013 as an EE debt even though they had sold it in 2014. It appears to be a breach of the Data Protection Act 1998 Section 13 and this all should have come to a head when I paid the £69 in September 2022, or so I thought. The £69 was in addition to the original outstanding balance and not sent to a DCA. Even if I had paid the full balance demanded by the DCA back in 2014 then the £69 would still have been outstanding with EE. If it turns out I have no claim then so be it. Sometimes there's not always a claim if there's blame. The CRA's will not give any reason for not removing it. They simply say it is not their information and refer me to EE. More to the point EE had my updated details since 2022 yet failed to contact me. I have been present on the electoral roll since 2012 so was traceable and I think EE have been negligent in reporting an account as in payment arrangement when in fact it had been sold to a DCA. In my mind what should have happened was the account should have been defaulted before it was closed and sold to the DCA who would then have made a new entry on my credit file with the correct details. However, a further £69 of charges were applied AFTER it was sent to the DCA and it was left open on EE systems. The account was then being reported twice. Once with EE as open with a payment arrangement for the £69 balance which has continued since 2013 and once with the DCA who reported it as defaulted in 2014 and it subsequently dropped off and was written off by the DCA, LOWELL in 2021. I am quite happy for EE to place a closed account on my credit file, marked as satisfied. However, it is clear to me that them reporting an open account with payment arrangement when the balance is £0 and the original debt has been written off is incorrect? Am I wrong?
    • OMG! I Know! .... someone here with a chance to sue Highview for breach of GDPR with a very good chance of winning, I was excited reading it especially after all the work put in by site members and thinking he could hammer them for £££'s and then, the OP disappeared half way through. Although you never know the reason so all I can say is I hope the OP is alive and well regardless. I'd relish the chance to do them for that if they breached my GDPR.

    • 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.

Thanks Pat & Tipsy - I'll give Barclays a call tomorrow.

 

The courts have only given me 8 days notice for this hearing and it just panicked me cos it's not something I was expecting.

 

Hopefully they'll be prepared to settle!:)

Cheers Dar3n,

 

I've just been working out my figures and the claim currently stands at £1405.82.

 

Any tips on how I should start my conversation with Krysta? - I don't want to mess this up now!:p

 

Thanks:)

Hi,

 

Does anyone have an alternative contact to Krysta Campbell in the Barclays Litigation dept? I have telephoned her twice today, but no answer. I sent her an e-mail at 12:30pm but have still not had a response.

 

Does anyone know if she is at work - she may be sick or on holiday? I really need to get the ball rolling and see if they will settle now as there are only 3 working days left until my prelim hearing and I really do not want to go (I will tho, if I have to!)

 

Thanks,

:-xBanksworstnightmare!:-x

Cheers Tipsy, hopefully she'll reply to my e-mail. It's hard for me to telephone her during 9-5 cos I'm at work and only have my lunch and breaks to call her! It would be typical if she had the same lunch hour as me!

I've tried ringing her a few times since I finished work, but no answer....I'll try her before I start work tomorrow, hopefully she'll be in the office early. I'll send her another e-mail tonight as well then she'll have it first thing tomorrow.:)

 

Thanks for the info Miss Muppet, I'll definitely have a read of that.

Contact them anytime now, they seem to be changing their policy, a few people have had success as soon as they have received the court date.

 

simply ask Krys who is handling your claim and to connect you or give you contact details.

 

Remember, before calling, have your updated SOC's + costs in front of you to compare their figures, do not settle until YOU are happy with the amount.

Hooray - I can see the light at the end of the tunnel!

 

This morning I was still having no luck getting in touch with Krysta - I called her numerous times and left a message on her answer machine. She had not replied to my e-mails so I forwarded them to Kate as per Dar£n's suggestion (thanks!:) ) and booked a half day from work for 31/05/07 as I was starting to think I would actually have to attend the prelim hearing!

 

Thankfully, this afternoon I received an e-mail from Barclays:

 

I am dealing with your claim against the bank. Firstly I want to offer my sincere apologies that I haven't been in contact with you sooner. We had no notice of next weeks hearing. I'm sending a settlement letter in the post to you today, which settles your claim in full.

 

If you could send it back to me over the weekend then I will have your account credited when I return to work on Tuesday.

 

So far, so good - lets hope I get the letter tomorrow and the figures match mine!

 

I've not cancelled my half day yet as there's still a chance I might have to attend the prelim. Hopefully, on Tuesday the money will be in my account and I will finally be able to relax!:D Once this is over, I will post the details for my contact - I have name/e-mail/direct line.

 

I would like to say a big thankyou to everyone's support, advice and encouragement. This site is a great help and I will definitely be making a donation as soon as I get the money to show my gratitude.:p

 

I'll keep you posted!

I received the settlement letter from Barclays this morning and they are offering £1391.89 - this is the amount showing on my MCOL claim form. They haven't added the extra interest (daily rate at £0.23) but this only equates to approx £15.00 so I'm not going to argue, and just accept their offer.

 

In a minute I'm going to cross out the confidentiality agreement, sign it and e-mail the letter to my contact. All going well and the money should be in my account Tuesday!

 

Nearly there now, and I haven't even had to do any court bundles!

 

:D:):D:):D:)
