    • Yeah I figured, unlikely I'll need credit anyway mortgage all paid off etc so I'll take that on the chin and learn from the experience. Probably would've beaten that too had I remembered the protocol, first time ever going through the process though sob it wasn't familiar to me  Oh well  
    • This is my slightly amended WS taking on board your previous comments, any suggestions for amendments would be most appreciated.  Thank you for you time.   1.        I am the Defendant in this matter. 2.        The facts in this statement come from my personal knowledge. 3.        I became aware of original Judgement following a routine credit check on or around 14th September 2020. 4.        The alleged Letter of Claim dated 7 January 2020 was served to a previous address which I moved out of in 2018, no effort was made to ascertain my correct address. 5.        The Judgement debt was not familiar to me so I began investigations to ascertain what the debt related to and how such a figure had been equated in any event. 6.        I made immediate contact with the Court, the Claimant Solicitors and the Claimants thereafter, asking them to provide me with a copy of the original loan agreement but this was not provided to me.  7.        I sent a Data Subject access Request to Barclays but no agreement was provided – See appendix 1 which details the timeline of communication between myself and Barclaycard as well as copies of correspondence between us. 8.        I do not admit to entering an agreement with Barclaycard in 2000. 9.       The claimant has failed to comply with the additional directions ordered by District Judge Davis and therefore this claim should be automatically struck out.  10.    The claimants have failed to disclose a true executed copy of the original agreement they refer to within the particulars of this claim. They are not entitled to enforce the agreement pursuant to section 78.6 (a) of the Credit Consumer Act 1974 12.   The reconstituted standard Barclaycard agreement that the claimant has included in the court bundle does not satisfy any CCA request and so the claimant is and remains in default of my CCA request and therefore unable to enforce the alleged agreement. 13.  The claimants have failed to provide proof the assignment, such as a deed of assignment. 14.  The claimant has failed to provide a statement of account setting out how the alleged debt accrued under that agreement 15.   Despite numerous requests to the claimant, I have still not seen any evidence, such as an original agreement or deed of assignment, that substantiates the claimant’s assertion that I owe the debt to the claimant, nor evidence of how the debt was accrued. 16.   As per CPR 1.4(2)(a) the court encourages parties to cooperate with each other in the conduct of proceedings in order to try and save time and costs for the parties and to also save the time and resources of the court however, despite vast attempts at mediation the claimants have been most unreasonable and have remained unwilling to mediate. I believe that the facts stated in this Witness Statement are 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 its truth.
    • A set aside application costs £275 which is more than the judgement so not worth it. Not that they would grant a set aside anyway.  Set asides are granted, for example, to people who moved and didn't get the court papers, so have a genuine reason for not defending.  Forgetting doesn't count. Your only choices are to pay up within 30 days, or defy the court and not pay.  If the latter, we've never seen a PPC enforce judgement for a single ticket, ever, you would get away without paying - but you would have a CCJ and a knackered credit file for six years.

    • 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.

I have checked my statements for my GE Money loan and have found 27 'administration charges' of £40 a time. This is a charge made every month when you have arrears. Can I claim these back?

 

What else can I claim, CCI presumably as the charges are still sat on the account incurring interest, a clear cut case?

Yes you may claim the admin charges. The interest is something that you will have to make up your own mind about.

 

Do not however, fall into the trap that any of this is clear cut, litigation always carries risk. Prepare well and read as much as you can, in particular if you plan to claim interest at the rate at which it may have been charged to you.

iGroup (GE Money) - AoS Filed late, defence late, amended defence also late despite extra time requested and granted.

Vanquis - Claim issued, no AoS or Defence received

I've just totted up £795 in 'Admin Fees', 'Direct Debit Recall Charges' (£20 each) and a 'Default Notice Charge' (£35) I want to charge interest on these to accurately reflect the interest I am being charged by GE Money, and their interest rate has changed (increased of course!) several times during the peiod of the loan. Can someone direct me to a spreadsheet which can accomodate this?

 

Thanks

I'm going to have a go at G E Money for those £40 admin charges. I paid by cheque one month too, and they still claimed the DD (even though I paid early and advise them I was changing banks and not to take the DD) and then charged me £20!. Needless to say I have been refused a refund. Given that G E Money are such vindictive and unpleasant people I think I might go down the F O S route though.

It is hard to know what all these are but I'd say that interest is a 'no', but that most other entries are worth a try

Hi all

Got the same problem, owe one month payment since Octobe 06

They want to add the payment into the account plus all the admincharges and say it would only cost an extra £5 per month

Hu was I born yesterday! loads of charges at £40 a time

 

Sent S A R in February and just received a letter saying returne my £10 went on to say sorry not happy with their charges basically this is what oit costs. no refernce to sending my statements etc.

So today sent another SAR letter and the £10 I think they are just trying to run rings round us till we give up.

I have three different things going on with them they are so rude and arragant a think they are al law un to them selves, but Iv had enough now so started Court procceding for PPI claim and also reported them of OFT anf trhe Financial Obnasman

 

I really can't wait to get these to Court, I actually don't care if they were to send me Prison, but I know that will never happen because there would be to much publicity.

 

Good luck to you all

 

LYNN

You cannot go to prison for owing someone money Lynn!

 

But isn't that typical of GE Money? Sending back your SAR fee!

Hi Gizmo111

I have been following the threads on building up a case against these unlawful exsessive charges from companies like GE Money. Would the prelim letter mortgage charges be the correct letter to send regarding claims for early repayment charges or is there a similar letter in the libruary to use for this type of claim? Can any one else help regarding this question?

Yep

 

Having reviewed previous correspondance and your account history i feel i can only re iterate the comments already made. As confirmed in our previous letter, our fees are applied in order to recover costs - blah blah blah

 

I trust now we have made our position clear, however if you remain disastissfied you should note this our final response, regarding the concerns, and such you shd now refer the matter to the F.O.S

 

So is it MCOL time?

 

As this was in response to my LBA.
