    • Honestly you are all amazing on this site, thank you so much for your help and time. ill keep an eye out and only return when i receive a claim letter for sure also, i updated my address with amex and tsb before i even missed payments. the initial address was my family home but i dont reside there. to avoid a bombardment of letters there i have now updated my address, will they send all threats etc to the new address? Or old address?   do you reccomend i send both tsb and amex my update in address via a letter?
    • Your point 4 deals with that and puts them to strict proof .....but realistically they are not in a position to state that within their particulars they were not the creditor at the time of default but naturally assume the OC would have...so always worth challenging and if you get a DJ who knows his onions on the day may ask for further evidence from the OC internal accounts system. 
    • I see, shame, I think if a claim is 'someone was served' then proof of that should be mandatory. Appreciate your input into the WS whenever you get chance, thanks in advance
    • Paper trail off the original creditor often confirms the default and issue of a notice...not having or being able to disclose the actual copy or being able to produce a copy less so. Creditors are not compelled to keep copies of the actual default notice so you will in most cases get a reconstituted version but must contain accurate figures/dates/format.     .    
    • Including Default Notice Andy? Ok, I think this is the best I can do.. it all makes sense with references to their WS. They have included exhibits that dates don't match the WS about them, small but still.. if you're going to reference letters giving dates, then the exhibits should be correct, no? I know I redacted them too much, but one of the dates differs to the WS by a few months. 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. 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 24/12/2022. 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 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.

    • 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.

There is nothing difficult about the MCOL forms, once you have registered you can fill in as much or as little as you want, if you find a question you don’t have the information for or don’t understand you can log off find the answer and go back again so its all correct and ready for the day when you need to submit it.

Nearly there - pressing the SUBMIT button tomorrow. Do I reserve the right to charge interest? They then bring up a text box if I put yes asking me in include wording but with the particulars Lats sent me the extra wording won't fit in. What would the daily interest rate be? With the particulars Lats sent does it cover this as it refers to Section 69 just doesn't say anything about what I am going to charge as a daily rate from the point of the claim.:confused:

 

Sorry to be so dependant...

 

For all of you out there in my shoes MCOL isn't as daunting as I thought it was!!:-)

yes, on the interest.

that's why i put on my partics for example that i send out - i didn't put it into the claim and i didn't get it back - so, you need to fit in "and interest at daily rate of (charges w/o interest x 0.00022) -mine would have been about 40pence a day on charges of 1800 as an example.

in a few days you will get a notice of service - check the date - they get 14 days from that date to acknowledge -

when they acknowledge - you get a notice of acknowledgment from the court - then they have another 14 to file a defense - 28 in total from the service(issue) date.

 

 

Once you have filed your claim, you need to send 2 copies of your schedule of charges, clearly marked with your claim no. + a brief covering letter asking for them to be filed with your claim to:

 

 

 

The Court Manager,

Money Claim Online

Northampton County Court

21-27 St. Katharine's Street

Northampton

NN1 2LH

 

Dear Sir/Madam

 

(Your Name) –v- (Bank)

Claim No: ********

Date Issued: xx/xx/xx

 

Please find enclosed a schedule of penalty charges taken from me by the defendant, along with interest claimed at the annual rate of 8% pursuant to section 69 of the County Court Act. The interest in addition to the amount in charges equates to the total amount of my claim, namely £(AMOUNT).

 

I respectfully request that the enclosed schedule should be attached to the particulars of my claim.

 

Yours sincerely,

 

Wait until you receive the Notice of Acknowledgement (not the Notice of Issue) from the court and then send a copy to the bank’s solicitors, since they are the ones who will now be dealing with your claim. DG's details will be listed on page 2 of the ack.

 

 

 

Dear Sir,

 

(Your Name) -v- (Bank)

Claim No: ********

Date Issued: xx/xx/xx

 

Please find enclosed a copy of my schedule of charges relating to the above claim.

 

(If, and only if, you are claiming overdraft interest on your penalties, also include this paragraph)

 

 

I understand you have a policy of initially rejecting claims for overdraft interest. However, should this be the case after you have reviewed my claim, you should be aware that my claim for overdraft interest has been meticulously calculated and double checked. It only ever relates to the cumulative charges within the overdrawn balance of the account at the point that the overdraft interest was debited

 

If it is that in your view the interest is not claimable, I am prepared to discuss this with yourseves and the judge in court.

 

Yours sincerely,

Sorry if I am being a bit slow... when you say once I have filed my claim send 2 copies to the court do you mean send it now or wait until I have had my acknowledgement-I am assuming wait until I have had my acknowledgement so that I have an exact address to send it to. Am I right?

 

It's all go at this end... can't beleive it has gone this far.

 

Have you had your money yet Netty?

You will have to wait until you get your Notice of Acknowledgement in the post before you send DG your details but there is no reason why you shouldn’t send a copy to the court now if you want.

Netty's had 2 pay outs now but she’s greedy

It gets like that, I'm looking through old mortgage redemption statements to see if there are any charges, I have applied for copies of all statements for every card, account and loan I have ever had. THese lenders/banks are not going to know what has hit them!

 

I am quite happy for HSBC to take as long as they want because it is more money in my pocket!:p

I work for a solicitors who deal with remortgages for C&G and Chelsea Building Society. We generally transfer peoples debt into a mortgage and secure it to their property. I was calling Halifax the other day for a redemption statment and going through the options as you do and it said press 1 if you are calling regarding the FSC announement regarding administration charges. Do you know what this is? Does it mean they are finding a loop hole out of this?:confused:

When the OFT published their report into credit card charges they said they thought the cost was about 49 pence per transaction and the card companies should not charge more than £12.00 (this is still just under two thousand five hundred percent mark up.. nice work if you can get it).

 

Since then the credit card companies have been claiming £12.00 as an accepted cost and even some judges in Ireland have now accepted this. IT’S NOT.

 

I assume the Banks have got either a pre-published copy or a leaked copy of the OFT report into bank charges and are setting out their stall to do the same.

 

TWO THOUSAND FIVE HUNDRED PERCENT is NOT an acceptable mark up for a high street business it amounts to nothing more than theft from those who are least able to pay and we should continue to demand disclosure of the banks costs ignoring any theoretical figures the OFT publish and the banks try to use as "proof" of fair trading.

  • 2 weeks later...

I thought I was into my forth week but it looks like the acknowledgment of service was dated 29th March so I am only just over 2 weeks into it. Still not heard a thing though. Is there anything I can do to push it forward.

 

What is the next step?

Hi Netty

 

Just been looking through other forums for your responses. They seem really helpful so I'm glad you've dropped a line on my thread.

 

I am going to sit over the weekend an add more charges from February which was when I first filed and now as my accounts are in a bit of a mess and I think HSBC have been a bit happy with the charges - got married in Jan and had rather of an expensive honeymoon, to top it off started new job and have to wait 6 weeks for pay day.

 

never mind - as you said all good things but I'm hoping to pay my car off with it which will save me having to sork a second job. All in all I think I have worked a second job over the past 7 years just to pay bank charges. What a joke!!!

if you are going to change your claim figure with mcol it will cost a further £35 non refundable and also, you would have to file the claim all over again. i would file a seperate claim when this one's done and dusted.

If i've been helpful in any way....then tip my scales over there!

Will do - going through bank statements and they have been really nice - what do you know, no bank charges for unauthorised OD!!

 

Get this - when sending my claim I also done a claim for my husband, I sent the initial letter and then the LBA but didn't proceed to take action as couldn't justify 2 lots of £120 if it didn't go through. He had a letter in the post this morning saying they would pay up £782.00!! and I'm still waiting. I am hoping that this is because I am owed almost £4000.00 now with interest and court costs - well at least I hope so.:p

 

Have you heard anything pinkdutchess??
