    • OK thanks, I noted them down when I checked the report - 3 have already expired, although if I'm adding the 14 days on then it'll be another week or so for those. The others are; end of July (so into August is that right?), end of August (these two are the big ones) and a couple of grand on Shop Direct at the end of November but seeing as this furthest one is Lowell and they have already missed those first 3 then I feel pretty safe with that one. Are these DN dates on the credit report that dates I should be looking at +14 days when their anniversaries come up this year as the time when I can be sure the debts are SB?  I won't be rushing to send the SB letters anyway until the final one has passed and I can just do them in one fell swoop.
    • pdf's merged and properly named. thread title updated. word fine replaced by charge in post one....they are not fines mere speculative invoices. just type no need to keep hitting quote.   dx  
    • Nice work dx, much what I thought and glad to have it confirmed by the expert. Radio silence remains my game plan, I have been resident in Scotland since birth and although I had moved a couple of years prior to defaulting, all addresses were updated and I am confident all begging letters are coming to my current home address. I appreciate the info that they probably wouldn't get a claim in by Aug anyway - I think I'll hunt out my big box of badness in the next few days just to see if I can find any default notice letters so I can pin down some dates to satisfy my semi-OCD. Much obliged, and unlike some others i will look to update in the future as I certainly intend to send them the SB letter as I like to pull the chains of these types of cretins! Of course i'll be back to confirm the correct procedure if I get any "proper" legal letters other than the usual Overdales toilet paper type of scare tactic.  
    • statute barring in Scotland is 5yrs from last payment/use date or date of default Notice + 14 days, whichever is the later. dont confuse that with the 6yrs debts show on credit files (DN's 6th bday regardless to payment or not). they'd never get a claim raised by august in 99% of cases . as long all these debts were taken out whilst resident in scotland and you have not moved since taking them out but failed to inform the original creditor before the debt sale....... then stay radio silent until sb date is reached. then if you wish send our scottish sb letter. just remember unlike E&W in scotland debts are extinguished, dead , gone , parrot. once SB'd dx

    • 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.

Are you saying your postman left all your 'statements' outside your house ? Seen as this is confidential information that could of got into the wrong hands by his actions then I would be also writing a stiff letter to the P.O.

sent prelim letter, later letter before Action. I am claiming £260. plus interest. I have today received a reply from the Customer Relationship manager.

Main paragraph

"However, as a goodwill gesture and without any admission of liability Barclaycard is prepared to credit to your account the difference between the charges you have incurred and the £12. fee recommended by the OFT. In accordance with the charges incurred this would be £104.00. The adjustment will be confirmed on your July 2006 statement.

 

Clarification etc.......

 

any views??????

I have now received a defence from Barclays- They have told me that I have not provided details of the precise charges to be unlawful, or the date thereof. ( I did provide a schedule of charges) Goes onto say...Accordingly, this defence is summary in the nature and the Defendant reserves the right to amend the statement in due course. It is averred that the Claimant has failed to identify and state any cause of action against the Defendant to establish any legal liability for the sum claimed............??

 

Any advice please? other than sending them yet another detailed schedule immediately?

Id seek advice from a mod TBH.

 

It sounds to me like their not acknowledging the claim youve made in the sense theyre saying its rubbish. edit : sorry not very well put, i think theyre saying you havent got a case i think.

 

Is it a standard letter, sounds like it to me bearing in mind the opening bit youve posted about its a summary defence?

 

Have yo confirmed why you believe the chagres to be unlawful, etc?

Yep.. all stated on my claim form. However they have now recredited my account with part of the amount claimed! Did not ask me for a letter of acknowledgemnt or anything, do I now have to amend my claim? Maybe this is what they're getting at. Should probably send them a new schedule of charges as well...or should I just inform the Court they have recredited me with part of the sum claimed?? Any ideas

I think I would speak with the court about the amended claim, but i would also check with a mod about their comments if one doesnt reply within a day or so.

 

i wouldnt want you to listen to me and end up with aggro, i nooo nothing [said in a slightly daft spannish accent]!

 

Play it safe and ask somone who has a better idea.

Well, if my case is anything to go by, expect letter of settlement by the 10th, demanding confidentiality. Just say NO!!!! lol.

 

Incidentally, there were discussions as to whether just scratching out the confidentality part would not invalidate the whole agreement, but Barclays themselves told me that it was ok to do so... Just so you know... ;-)
