    • Other case law relied upon " On other record of reasons "
    • Page 2 – document 10 and 11 – you should include the fact that it is a Law reform commission report. Best to give it its full name if you can I suggest that you move paragraph 10 up to the first position – paragraph 5 and move everything down. I think other than that – it is good to go. I suggest you don't bother to do any more drafts. Simply rearrange the paragraphs as I suggested above then the title of the documents that you are relying on in the index page. Send it off and post your final version here so that everybody can see. I'm sorry about the delay. Thanks for reminding me
    • I have recently found myself in financial difficulties and with the help of forum members in another thread regarding this, I think I can get myself sorted. My query here is how to deal with a Cifas marker that has been logged against me by one of my creditors for "evasion of payment". Admittedly yes I did get a £5000 loan with them and have not paid any payment but at the start of the year, which is when the loan landed, I realised I was going to be struggling to repay that and other debts and I contacted MCB to ask if there was any way I could extend the loan from 24 months to 36 months. I explained my situation and that I was going with a DMP and asked them if they could help me with this. They did not reply. I then emailed them again a month later explaining that my DMP was going ahead and could they confirm that the direct debit was indeed cancelled. Again, they did not reply. The DMP fell apart and so did everything else thereafter. My bank withdrew my overdraft and said I could not stay with them (I thought initially that it was because of the DMP) so I opened another account (Starling) and set up all my direct debits etc with the new bank. A month into being with the new bank, they contacted me and said they were closing my account in three months. So I started applying for other basic accounts and every single one of them either refused or revoked.  Through the help in the other thread, I requested a SAR from Cifas and discovered that I have this marker against my name for "evasion of payment". I have logged a complaint with MCB on the advice of other forum members, but my query really is do you think the marker is fair given that I did ask them for help and I did explain that I was going to be struggling financially to repay the loan over the original two years, and is there any way that I can get it removed? I fully admit that I have yet to make a payment to them and I suppose in my naivety and panic I thought if I emailed them early on they could extend the loan and help me out, but they didn't even reply  I did manage to open an account with Monzo before the marker was in place, but I am very concerned that if Monzo do what Starling did, I will have no bank account to pay my bills or get my wages paid into.  Realistically based on the information I have given here, what do you think my chances are of getting this marker removed? Any help/advice on this would be greatly appreciated x
    • Thank you dx, that is what I intend to do now. I have gone through all the SAR documents, a lot of which I am seeing for the first time! As per my previous post #116 letters and statements alleged to have been sent to me, as recorded on their system notes I have not received. Letters I have sent requesting information and account statements have not been recorded as being received by them, all were sent either by Recorded or Special Delivery. I have all the proof you menrtioned from my files for payments and from their SAR info for fees added. Thanks t
    • In my experience (not with car payments) but with many other things, my partner has been ill and signed off in the past and we have been unable to meet various commitments.  Naturally if you ring the call centre they are going to fob you off and tell you you must pay, that's why that never ever works. I would obtain a note from her GP listing all her health issues plus medications plus side effects, then write to the finance company with a copy of it, explaining the situation, as you have here, asking for a payment holiday. Perhaps mention that the car is very much needed for hospital appointments etc. It's likely the finance company would rather you pay till term end than, chase you for money they will never see, and sell the car at auction for a loss,  You can search some of my threads going back years, advising people to do this for Council Tax, Tax Credits, HMRC, Even a solicitors company and it always works, because contrary to popular belief people are reasonable.

    • 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.

Got a letter from Crap1 today, after I sought judgment against them for failing to respond. Have paid partial settlement £400 short of my claim, they just don't know its "partial" yet :D:D:D

 

looking forward to All & Pester, bit narked that they'll close the account - but I hope to give them a "rough" ride :razz::razz:

A&L have closed my account but not my husbands as its overdrawn. Don't know if this will apply to you but we claimed on both accounts. They do however keep charging £5 for not funding the account with the amount we should have going in there on a monthly basis so maybe this is why they have not closed it. Going to pay this off soon so we'll see if they close it then. ;)

Finally got the statements through. Although I have LBA them for non compliance as they did not include any info about manual intervention, the statements only went back to August 2000.

 

They have rung me stating they DO NOT have any records going back prior to August 2000 ?

 

Anyway, my claim for charges alone is £3071.00. My big decision is whether to stick to charges and statutory interest, which will take my claim up to £4231. OR do I take myself out of small claims and go for "contractual" interest which will take my claim to £6005.00, there is an obvious risk with this though :confused::confused:

Usual naf reply to initial letter, we're right your wrong, we pay you nothing.

 

LBA sent, I've updated the bit in bold from previous versions ............. I'll bet they'll make me a pitiful offer :D:D

I am very disappointed that you have failed to adequately respond to my previous letters to you.

I now understand that the regime of 'fees' which you have been applying to my account in relation to direct debit refusals, exceeding overdraft limits and so forth are unlawful at Common Law, Statute and recent Consumer regulations.

 

I would draw your attention to the terms of the contract which you agreed to at the time that I opened my account. It is an implied term of that contract that you would conduct yourselves lawfully and in a manner which complies with UK law. Your regime of fees over the period of my claim is not lawful and therefore your terms of contract in this regard are erroneous. If you believe differently please supply all terms and conditions that have variably applied to the contract between us that have applied to my account over the said period, highlighting areas in which you believe you are entitled to charge such fees, together with applicable treatise.

I am frankly shocked that you have operated my account in this way as I had always reposed confidence in your integrity and expertise as my fiduciary.

 

I calculate that you have taken £3,071.00 in unlawful penalty fees which you have charged to me for various reasons. I enclose a schedule of the charges which I am claiming with this letter. I am enclosing a copy of the schedule of the charges which I am claiming. I have already sent you a copy of this in my original letter of the 30th April 2007.

 

Additionally you have entered default notices against my credit record. These defaults occurred merely in respect of unlawful charges levied by you or were the result of impecuniosity caused directly by the taking by you of penalty charges which you had applied unlawfully to my account.

 

In addition to full payment of the sum mentioned above I require that you remove the default entry from the register. Please note that mere correction or amendment to the entry will not be acceptable.

 

I require repayment in full of this money and removal of the default notices. If you do not comply fully within 14 days then I shall begin a claim against you for the full amount plus interest plus a claim under ss.7 and 13 of the Data Protection Act 1998 plus my costs and without further notice.

 

I am fully aware that there have been numerous similar claims against you, all of which you have settled after the claimants have instigated court claims. Such behaviour wastes the time of the court and the claimant, I would hope that you would wish to seek to settle this matter without recourse to the Court.

Furthermore, I shall submit a Consumer Credit Act 1974 complaint to the OFT upon the basis that you have failed to comply with the OFT's direction of 5 April 2006 and are therefore not a 'fit and proper person' to hold a consumer credit licence under the 1974 Act. If you do not understand what this means then seek advice from your legal department.

OK like many I have been rather lapse in continuing with my claims. However I finally got my motivation back and served a claim on Woolsnitch on Thursday for mortgage penalties.

 

So its back to All & Pester. I'm putting my N1 together today and will serve this week. Yes it will most likely get stayed but at least its in and done ready for the final Court hearing - that six year clock is ticking and the banks are rubbing their hands with the thought of money they will not have to pay out!!

My claim is in Chelmsford County Court served on All&Pester 22/4/09 they have until 6th May.

 

Bit surprised I thought the Court would have stayed it immediately. Wonder what would happen in All&Pester missed the date for reply? :)

What are they up to?

:D

 

No they have not requested a stay they have acknowledged and sent me their defence from Ashurst LLP solicitors.

 

Now any one care to give me some advice about what to do next - Do you think they want me to go as far as AQ before they request a stay?

 

Thoughts/advice please.

I have received their defence. Looks like I will be having to submit an AQ. Should I request a Directions for disclosure to try and force the issue.

 

Has anyone done one recently? The templates I can find are all pre-test case.

 

Any other suggestions that may assist me ............... Their defence looks like a template.

 

Could they still request a stay at this stage?
