    • This time you do need to reply to them with a snotty letter to show you'd be big trouble for them if they did try court. We will help this evening.  
    • Hi, I just wanted to update the post and ask some further advice  I sent the CCA and CPR request on the 14th May, to date I have had no reply to the CCA but I received a load of paperwork from the CPR request a few days ago. I need to file the defence today and from the information I have read the following seems to be what is required.  I would be grateful if some one could confirm suitability   Claim The claim is for the sum of £255.69 due by the Defendant under an agreement regulated by the Consumer Credit Act 1974 for a PayPal account with an account reference of xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx)  The Defendant failed to maintain contractual payments required by the agreement and a Default Notice was served under s.87(1) of the Consumer Credit Act 1974 which has not been complied with. The debt was legally assigned to the claimant on 15-09-21, notice of which has been given to the defendant. The claim includes statutory interest under S.69 of the County Courts Act 1984 at a rate of 8% per annum from the date of assignment to the date of issue of these proceedings in the sum of £0.00. The Claimant claims the sum of £255.69   Defence  The Defendant contends that the particulars of claim are vague and generic in nature. The Defendant accordingly sets out its case below and relies on CPR r 16.5 (3) in relation to any particular allegation to which a specific response has not been made. 1. Paragraph 1 is noted. I have had financial dealings with PayPal  in the past but cannot recollect the account number referred to by the Claimant. 2. Paragraph 2 is denied. I am not aware of service of a Default Notice by the original creditor the Claimant refers to within its particulars of claim.  3. Paragraph 3 is noted. On the 14/5/2024 I requested information related to this claim by way of a Section 77 request, which was received and signed for by the claimant on 20/5/2024. As of today, the Claimant has failed to respond to this request, and therefore remains in default of the section 77 request and therefore unable to enforce any alleged agreement until its compliance. 4. Therefore it is denied with regards to the Defendant owing any monies to the Claimant, and the Claimant is put to strict proof to: (a) Show how the Defendant has entered into an agreement and: (b) Show the nature of the breach and evidence by way of a Default Notice Pursuant to s.87(1) of the Consumer Credit Act 1974. 5. Paypal (Europe) S.A.R.L is out of the juristriction of English Courts. 6. As per Civil Procedure 16.5 it is expected that the Claimant prove the allegation that the money is owed. 7. By reason of the facts and matters set out above, it is denied that the Claimant is entitled to the relief claimed, or any relief.
    • Thanks @dx100ukI followed the advice given on here... then it went very quiet!  The company was creditfix I think then transferred to Knightsbridge (or the other way around) The scammer independent advisor was Roger Wallis-having checked his LinkedIn profile just this morning, it does look like he's still scamming vulnerable people... I know I was stupid for taking his advice, but i do wonder how many others he has done this to over a longer period of time (it came as a  massive shock to him when our IVA suddenly failed). Lowell have our current address (and phone numbers if the rejected calls over the past couple of days is anything to go by!) No point trying the SB because of the correspondence in 2019? Thanks
    • I have received the following letter from BW Legal today.  Also includes form if I admit the debt and wanting my income details.  Do I reply to this LETTER OF CLAIM please?  Looks like they are ready for court now??  Thank You BW Legal - Letter of Claim.pdf
    • According to Wikipedia - yeah, I know - the site is owned by Croydon Council. It's at least worth a try to contact the council and ask for a contact in The Colonnades. You could then lay it on thick about being a genuine customer and ask them to call their dogs off. It's got to be worth a try  https://www.croydon.gov.uk/contact-us/contact-us

    • 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,

 

I'm new to this site so thought I'd let u know how my claims going with Lloyd's.

 

I originally got the standard response from Lloyd's telling me that they don't agree that the charges are unlawful, which i understand they send to everyone at the first point of call.

 

Anyway I pressed on and threatened further action and the other day i got a further letter saying they will pay £750.00 in full and final settlement. My claims worth just over £2K.

 

This money has been paid into my account already before i even received the letter.

 

Obviously i don't want to accept £750 in full and final settlement. I'm working on a further letter to say I'll accept it on an INTERIM basis only and push for the remaining amount.

 

Any tips on what to say or should i just threaten litigation if the remaining amount isn't paid?

 

Ta

  • 1 month later...

Partial offer rejection letter was sent sometime ago...... and you guessed it I haven't heard anything.

I've actually just made a complaint to the FOS about Lloyds TSB so hopefully I’ll get full settlement (without interest) without the need for litigation.

 

We'll see........

Got a response from Lloyds in response to the rejection of the partial offer.

 

Its about 2 lines long and just states that they are NOT going to increase their offer and the £750 GOGW is the maximum they will pay without further action (FOS complaint/litigation).

 

Oh well.

Okay,

 

I’m about to start my MCOL claim and will finish it this weekend.

 

I’ve read through ‘Getting MCOL right’ and I understand the process I think.

 

Anyway question is that I received a GOGW from Lloyds for £750.00. I guess I need to show this deduction in the particulars of claim, right? Should I just do for example?

 

Total claim £1750, Less gesture of good will of £750, remaining balance £1000. Would that be okay?

 

Also after I finish the claim on MCOL I send a full copy of my charges info and schedule/breakdown to the Northampton court. Do I send it to [problem] at the same time or wait for their acknowledgement/defence?

 

Finally would you send a copy of your T&C at this stage, as I think I’ve still got them from when the account was open?

 

Sorry for the daft questions, I just don’t want to mess up my claim.

Have you actually received the £750 from them or is it an offer? I'd carry on with the full amount if you haven't received anything or send them a letter saying you'd accept the amount in part settlement of the full amount.

 

I generally send the schedule of charges to northampton,yes. But not send anything to their solicitors until they request it (and they'll probably request the schedule of charges as they 'wouldn't have received' anything. Yeah, right)

 

I haven't sent any copies of any T&Cs in any of the claims i've set up, but things might have changed on that front.

Loonpants -

 

The partial GOGW offer was paid into my bank before i even received the letter offering it.

 

I immediately responded accepting on an INTERIM only so yes its been taken.

 

So guess i'll need to show that in the POC as otherwise **** will no doubt raise it in their defence.

Do i send copy correspondence in the initial pack that i send to Northampton county court or is that just for the actual court bundle, if it gets that far?

Copy corresponce as in schedule of charges etc? Are you not doing the claim online? I'm not sure whether you can include them in the written application or not. I just send them after i've done the claim online including my claim reference.

 

Sorry

I've had my 2nd letter from the FOS yesterday.

 

"...The bank have told (us) that - in it's view - the charges it has made to their account were levied fairly in accordance with its tariff. It does not appear to have made an offer that fully meets what you have asked for. I have therefore written to the bank to invite it to:

  • make an offer which meets (your) claim in full; or
  • provide me with the information I believe I shall need to reach a conclusion on the merits of (your) claim.

"As you may know, in almost all the charges complaints we have considered, banks have made offers to meet the claim ... I will let you know as soon as Lloyds TSB Bank Plc tells me whether it is prepared to settle (your) claim ..."

 

 

Made the complaint to them only about 2 weeks ago so seems to be moving quickly.

 

The amount i'm claiming for/advised the FOS includes 8% interest so we'll see what happens.

Did you take the money they gave yo out of your acct just in case? Also, I'm confused

You filed MCOL and went to the FOS at the same time? I didn't know you were allowed to do this. Do you think this would speed up a claim?

FOS rules are that they cannot investigate a claim if you are taking court action. Did you tell them?

 

The only thing I'm not sure of is at what point they consider Court Action to have started. I suspect that it's at MCOL.

No i haven't issued proceedings via MCOL, i was planning to do it possibly this weekend. But i'll hold fire now as i probably won't have to.

 

Yeah i know you can't do both at the same time and the FOS won't help if you've issued and failed.

 

I made the complaint to the FOS after i had the £750 GOGW as Lloyds said they won't improve on the offer unless i go through the courts or FOS.

 

We haven't got anything to lose with the FOS as you can still file a claim if the FOS aren't able to help.

 

 

No, the £750 is still in the bank, well some of it. That was a few weeks ago now so there's no chance they'll want it back.

Madmax,

 

I was in almost exactly the same situation as you, went down the Ombudsman route and won, as most do. My experiences are in the thread Muggyno1 v Lloyds TSB.

 

Cheers.

Ok, thanks for clearing that up for me.

I'm thinking I may go down the FOS route if they offer the same to me.

Muggyno1 - thats reassuring to know you got your claim settled in full with interest through the FOS, espcially as it was in the £9K region :o.

 

Titch - you should get the normal GOGW will offer from Lloyds. Take it as an interim them comaplin to the FOS (as you've got nothing to lose) and then if need be, go through the courts, buit you shouldn't need to.

How lucky am i.

 

Heard about the OFT test case and that the FOS had stopped all there complaints on bank charges.

 

Anyway just called the FOS to talk it through and amazingly Lloyds have offered to pay my claim in full and this was sent to me on the 25/07/07. The FOS state the offer will still stand despite the test case so looks like i've just received my offer just in time as otherwise i would have had the case frozen until the test case was finished which will be months.

 

One happy MadMax ;-)

Finally received my offer letter from the FOS.

Dated the 25/07/07. Lloyds have offered me £1344 in addition to the £750 GOGW that I’ve already received. This is for my full claim and interest.

Have sent the acceptance form off first thing today.

MODs please change title to WON and move me into the Lloyds TSB success forum.

Donation will be made. Thanks for everyone's help.

N.B

Looks like I got my offer 1 day before the test case announcement where they froze all the other claims.
