    • Ok, so just been to see my friend, she still has her head firmly in the sand and had a pile of unopened post, thankfully nothing serious apart from this case!    In answer to your question it says N24 General Directions Order at the bottom of the page, then on page 2 where the line says "As a result of an order made on the 1 May 2024, this claim has been transferred to the county court at ##### (friends local court) " this is N271 Notice of transfer of proceedings.  Within the stack of letters I found 2 from Kearns Solicitors,    02-12-2022 Document pack with covering letter stating under the s78 CCA please see enclosed  1) A copy of the executed Credit Agreement, 2)  A copy of the terms & conditions 3) A copy of the varied terms & conditions applicable at termination / assignment, and  4) A statement regarding the conduct of your account as requested by s78(1)(a) to (c)  (Would you like me to describe the documents attached?)   18-02-2023 Generic letter asking for her to contact them to discuss settlement or they will take to court for further legal action. 
    • well you made the cardinal sin by phoning these scammers at least once so their persistence could go on. however you are new so there you go. you never ever ever phone any of these likes of scammers on these fake schemes that seem plausible.  just like a DCA chasing any old debt .. they are NOT BAILIFFS and have  ZERO legal powers to actually do anything. dx  
    • Okay understood now just based on personal experience how long does this go on for 
    • civil recovery schemes run by the likes of RLP DWF etc etc are a scam. totally IGNORE EVERYTHING. no if's or but's dx  
    • I’m 17 years old and Received 2 letters from dwf with my name spelt wrong and they are asking for for £230.40. I rang dwf civil recovery the first time upon taking advice from citizens advice to explain to delay to deadline as I was in the process of receiving advice which wasn’t much help. When that deadline was done I then called again to delay the deadline as I’m struggling financially and it’s lot of money they are asking for and I tried to dispute the cost to which they said okay we will delay it another 7 days for you to dispute the cost but I asked them how do I dispute this to you or Sainsbury’s and they said “we can’t advise you on this matter” I’ve read a lot of threads saying to ignore them but I was unsure now as I’ve made contact and have tried to dispute the payment and pay it which might mean I have admitted. Would they just persist harder and take me to court eventually or file for a ccj.   I would like to ignore them still but I would like to send a strong email so they know I’m clued up and then ignore them. I also want to pay the reasonable amount and get this matter solved. any advice on the law or similar situations are helpful when I called them I asked for an itemised bill. £101 stolen goods  ( supposedly caught me because they watched me on cctv over the duration of the week) also why did they not stop me in the first day. £20.40 recovered goods £150 security costs     Thank you

    • 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.

Hi everyone. Ive been watching these forums for a few months now and decided finally to take the jump and try to reclaim my charges from the Halifax. I sent in my request for full details approximately 8 weeks ago and recently received details of the amount of charges.

 

I sent a preliminary request for repayment dated the 16th May by recorded delivery to the head office. And prepared myself for a long wait. However today (22nd May) I received their reply dated the 19th May basically telling me that they had checked out my complaint and they were happy that this was within their guidelines etc. (I think at this point they expect me to go away!) Now I expected this from reading everyones threads on this. So Im now preparing my Letter before action.

 

For the record this claim is for £1436.

Hi AJ,

I'm at the same stage as you. I received my letter this morning telling me my complaint had been declined. As an ex member of staff I did wonder if this had anything to do with it, but I'm going to send off my LBA today too. I'll keep watching yours...

Hi lelbel.

 

From what Ive seen its a standard reply. At least they were quick about it and didnt leave me hanging the traditional 4 weeks then turning it down. Now we are free to move on to next stage and show them we dont have any intention of *going away*

Hi again. My 14 days after the LBA is up today and lo and behold I just received a letter from them offering me a goodwill gesture of £690. As my original claim was for over £1400 could anyone tell me what the next step would be for me as obviously I would prefer to go for the full amount and not settle for this offer. Thank you

can anyone give me advice on how to claim daily interest figure that needs putting on an N1 form please. Just in the process of filling out my claim form and came across it. I have done the statement of claim with the 8% interest so any help appreciated.

 

Also after re-reading the forums Ive noticed threads about bank charges being taken from benefits. As my account is fully funded with invalidity payments I was wondering if I should make the bank aware of this before filing the N1.

Thanks for the reply you left. Court costs left out. Went this morning to my local county court to take my N1 duly filled out. I was at the point of almost taking a bloody valium as I approached the steps but I have to admit it took me less than 10 mins to get it all over with. Sometimes things really arent as bad as they seem to be! I can see though where these banks are hoping that most will fall short of the last hurdle and not actually go through with the whole court process.

 

Well anyways no point writing a book about it here. I can settle down to coffee now and start the waiting game. Yet again! Thanks for everyones help so far. I will keep you all updated on progress

Received my notice of issue today stating date of 21st July will be the date they deem it issued. Now I guess I wait for the 14 days to see what happens.

 

With relation to my 2nd claim I received a letter this morning offering me as a gesture of goodwill around 50% of the claim. Needless to say my rejection letter will be in mondays post and my N1 filed the same day considering how painless it was the first time.

 

Thank you all for the help you have given me so far.

I received my acknowledgement of service this morning from the court saying that the halifax had full intentions of defending this claim. I know that this now would generally give them the 28 days in which to file. I also received a letter from the Halifax at the same time confirming that they had now placed my claim on hold until the outcome of the test case and also that they intended to apply for a stay should any court papers be issued ( I think they a bit behind the times here as they have already had them issued) but anyways what I wanted to know is do I just leave this court case for my claim to just hang now or after the 28 days still apply for judgement knowing full well that the Halifax will then request this stay. Any advice most welcome. thanks.

Im back again for yet more advice. I have two claims running with the halifax. One in my name only and one in both myself and my partners. Both have had N1's issued, one had acknowledgement of service with intention to defend issued. However on the other one I have today received a cheque for £496 which it claims is in full and final settlement of my claim (my claim being for £1207) can anyone tell me what I should do now as this is really starting to play with my head. Thank you!

Ive received a defence from the halifax this morning together with an allocation questionnaire from the Court. Could anyone tell me what this is, what it does and how I should fill it in. Is it at this point that I need to do the bundle of court documents or not. Any help appreciated as I kinda feel out of my depths now.

Ok, dont worry, this is very typical now to recieve this. Halifax are just catching up to the rest of them.

 

Have a look at this thread to see if your defence is the same as other peoples.

 

http://www.consumeractiongroup.co.uk/forum/halifax-bank-bank-scotland/110071-urgent-halifax-defence-filed.html

 

Also here is what you need to help you fill in the AQ.

http://www.consumeractiongroup.co.uk/forum/lloyds-bank/78216-aqs-stays-strike-out.html

 

And you need to have 3 copies.

 

1 for the court

1 for Halifax

1 for you!

 

Here is the link to make copies.

I received a completed allocation questionnaire from the solicitors acting on behalf of the halifax. In the space set out for other information they put

 

*The test case between the Office of Fair Trading and Abbey National Plc, Barclays Bank Plc, Cladesdale Bank Plc, HBOS Plc, HSBC Bank Plc, Lloyds TSB Bank and Nationwide Building Society is not expected to be timetabled to be tried until the end of 2007, the defendant respectfully asks the court to stay the claim pending the final decision of the test case*

 

Now when I put my original POC in I used the standard one from this site. However its since been brought to my attention that as myself and partner were on benefits at the time and that all charges have been taken out of such benefits that under the new terms imposed by the FOS that maybe I could go ahead under the new hardship clause that they have.

 

If this is the case does anyone know the wording I could use to ask that the Halifax not be allowed to stay the proceedings because of such hardship for my allocation questionnaire.

 

Also once the questionnaire has been filed does it mean that the next stage is to attend Court or should I perhaps write to the Halifax to inform them of the fact that all charges were taken out of benefits and ask that they consider it under hardship case.
