    • oh well i wonder what new fake documents they have made up then...for them to try this.... just to check nothing funky like Link have filed an n244 to lift the stay and strike out her defence....she hasnt moved since last court comms has she?   is this an n24? bit unusual for a 13mts stay to just be lifted... has she not received anything from link/kearns in the last fw weeks like a docs bundle? bit like this thread... https://www.consumeractiongroup.co.uk/topic/466576-lc-assetlinkkearns-claim-form-2-mbna-cc/?do=findComment&comment=5256397  
    • if the agreement was taken out jan 23, then she has not reached the 1/3rd mark so the car has not become protected goods under the consumer credit act.  this puts her in a very very vulnerable position regarding ever keeping the car....whereby once they have issued a default notice they can legally send a guy with a flatbed (though they are NOT BAILIFFS and have ZERO legal powers) to collect the car.  if the car is kept on the public highway then they can simply take it away and she will legally owe the whole stated amount on the agreement AND lose the car. if it's on private property i'e like a driveway, ok they shouldn't take it without her agreeing, but if they do, it's not really on but its better than a court case and an inevitable loss with the granting a return of goods order. are these 'health reasons' likely to resolve themselves in the very short term (like a couple of months?) and can she immediately begin working again ? i'e has she got a job or would have to find one?  answer the above and we'll try and help. but she looks to be between rock and a hard place . whatever happens she will still have to pay the loan off...car or no car....unless you can appeal to the finance company's better nature using health reasons to back off for xxx months.
    • no need to use it. it doubles the size of the thread and makes it very diff to find replies on small screens too. just like @username it - sends unnecessary alerts to people. everyone that's posted on your thread already inc you ...gets an automatic email alert when someone else posts.
    • Hello all,   I ordered a laptop online about 16 months ago. The laptop was faulty and I was supposed to send it back within guarantee but didn't for various reasons. I contacted the company a few months later and they said they will still fix it for me free of charge but I'd have to pay to send it to them and they will pay to send it back to me. The parcel arrived there fine. Company had fixed it and they sent it via dpd. I was working in the office so I asked my neighbours who would be in, as there's been a history of parcel thefts on our street. I had 2 neighbours who offered but when I went to update delivery instructions, their door number wasn't on the drop down despite sharing the same post code.  I then selected a neighbour who I thought would likely be in and also selected other in the safe place selection and put the number of the neighbour who I knew would definitely be in and they left my parcel outside and the parcel was stolen. DPD didn't want to deal with me and said I need to speak to the retailer. The retailer said DPD have special instructions from them not to leave a parcel outside unless specified by a customer. The retailer then said they could see my instructions said leave in a safe space but I have no porch. My front door just opens onto the road and the driver made no attempt to conceal it.  Anyway, I would like to know if I have rights here because the delivery wasn't for an item that I just bought. It was initially delivered but stopped working within the warranty period and they agreed to fix it for free.  Appreciate your help 🙏🏼   Thanks!

    • 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.

SORRY but I think you are wrong getting involved in any telephone conversation with these people. Did you send them the CCA request. Its up to them to answer it. Have they proved you owe the debt and if so that they have a right to collect it. You may have got Mr Nice Guy on the phone this morning (must be a new recruit:rolleyes: or else he has reached is target) but rest assured if they come back with a new offer this afternoon and you dont agree Mr Nasty will return. Keep all your dealings in writing with these people

The first thing did was stop answering withheld calls.(Get caller display) When they continued from early hours i.e 8am til 9 at night I decided to get my phone company to put a bar on them. Now if any of these people ring me its on a number that I can recognise and choose to ignore. After all I pay the phone bill so I can choose who I want to speak to.Its great and best of all Im sure it pees them off greatly.

 

No matter what you send them as a breakdown of your income and expenditure it will not be enough. Dont forget they havent proved you owe them anything. Any dealings I have had with IJ I have found them to be arrogant and nasty (MY PERSONAL OPINION)

Can the phone company just block specific numbers? If so, how much does it cost? I'll certainly get caller display, as I can't continue to ignore the phone :rolleyes:

 

You are of course right, most of my dealings with Intruim so far have been nasty...one of their agents tried to add 10% onto the debt because I couldn't make a card payment over the phone! Before joining this site I didn't realise just how nasty DCA's can be

 

If, as you say the income/expenditure gets me no-where and they continue to harrass me, then at least I can prove that I did try to be reasonable (If it ever goes to court)

 

Most companies allow you to block certain numbers. I think they charge 3.50 a month. It allows you to block up to ten numbers. With caller display at least you will be able to see who is calling and decide whether or not to answer

They are a tricky lot. Chances are they know you have agreed thirty quid. The next call will be something like ' Im sorry Allykat but my supervisor will not accept 30 quid we need 78 or our 'legal' :rolleyes: department will do x, y z. As you will note on EVERY thread on this forum the advice always is NEVER negotiate with ANY DCA over the phone. CCA them and see what happens. Bet they cant respond with in the 12+2. The debt will then be in default and you wont have to pay unless they produce the paperwork.

 

You dont need to tell them that you have sent a SAR to the original lender. Let them default. Better still let them committ a Criminal Offence. I just ignorned them and they went away

I had a debt with Intrum Justita for £1.700, i sent them a financial statement and offer of payment....My offer of payment was £18.66 per month, in accordance with my other debts....

 

They sent a letter saying the least they could accept was £121...I resent a letter saying that they should reconsider cause if it went to court a judge would only make me pay what i could afford anyway.....a week later they accepted the offer that lasted 3 months and then i recieved a letter saying they did'nt want anything to do with the account anymore and they passed it back to the original owners.....

 

I would CCa them.....i really doubt that they will have the correct documents...they are a bunch of muppets.

At this stage they were probably in profit having made more than the pittance the debt cost them. If the Banks are prepared to sell these debts to DCAs for mere pence in the pound then why will they not do the same to their customers who run into genuine financial hardship.

Please make sure you get the facility to bar certain numbers, I already feel much better because I have set it up so I will look forward to not receiving any abusive calls. The message they will hear is "This number is not accepting calls from this number..." I wish I could see their faces...:D

Even WItheld caller reject is brilliant. It stopped me fro getting upwards of 20 calls a day from these delightful people. It must accept their autodialling equipment just as Choose to Refuse. Because according to their computer someone has answered so it will be passed to whichever operator is free. You can just picture them in their call centre ready fro an angy tirade of abuse only to hear the recorded message. This number is not accepting calls from this number P R I C E L E S S:D

ODC...I think everyone should do it! :D

 

I totally agree we can decide who we want to talk to we pay the bills

 

I've read in some threads that DCA's have refused to deal with people in writing only, because they are a 'phone based company'
Maybe they cant write only read a script. Judging by some of the preprinted letters I have received

 

They said to me on one occassion that they CANNOT remove my number from their system and they WILL continue to call me :rolleyes:
Good for them let them break the law

 

What will they do if everyone just blocks their number?! I can see the staff in that particular call centre getting very bored and perhaps even more irate than usual :p
Even more Irate than usual. They will still get people who unfortunately are not aware of their rights or the existence of this wonderful forum
