    • I'm not sure we were on standard tariffs - I've uploaded as many proofs as I can for the ombudsman - ovo called last night uping the compensation to 100 from 50 pounds for the slip in customer service however they won't acknowledge the the problem them not acknowledging a fault has caused nor are they willing to remedy anything as they won't accept the meter or formula was wrong.   I'd appreciate more details on the economy 7 approach and I'll update the ombudsman with any information you can share. 
    • To re-iterate and highlight my urgent question on this one: The N24 from the court did not include any instructions to submit paperwork 28 days before the date, unlike the N157 received for other smaller claims. Do I have to submit a WS for this court date? Link has!...
    • No, reading the guidance online it says to wait for a letter from the court. Should I wait or submit the directions? BTW, I assume that the directions are a longer version of the particular of claim accompanied by evidence, correct?
    • Thanks for opening, it's been another rough year for my family and I've procastinated a little.. Due to the age of my defaults on this and other accounts (circa 2021), I really need to avoid a CCJ as that will be another 6 years of credit issues. Mediation failed as I played the 'not enough info to make a decision' however during the call for some reason they did offer settlement at 80%, I refused. this has been allocated to small claims track, court date is June 3 and I've received their WS. I'm starting on my WS. They do appear to have provided everything required of them (even if docs could be reconstructions). Not really sure what my argument is anymore but I do want to attend court and see this through. Should a judgement be made against me then I will clear the balance within 30 days and have the CCJ removed - this is still possible isn't it? I'm going to be reading up today and tomorrow and hope you can provide me some guidance in the meantime. Wonder what your advice would be given the documents they have provided? I am now in a position to clear the debt either by lump sum or a few large installments - Is this something i should look into at this late stage? Thanks as always in advance
    • I have now received my SAR. It includes a great deal of information! Is there a time limit on how long account information is kept and/or can be provided to debtors? I have received many account statements which were not previously sent to me. I remember that the creditor should provide explanations of any acronyms and abbreviations that maybe used in the documents. Is this still the case? Also what, if any, are the regulations in regard to adding fees to a debt? Can fees be added to a debt after the court has approved a charge on a property. Perhaps due to the numerous owners of the debt, many payments I made were not properly recorded on the account, some were entered over a year after the payment was made! Following the Legal Charge, I paid every month until my payments were refused. I am trying to compute the over payments, but the addition of fees etc. is confusing me. Any comments and/or help would be appreciated.

    • 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 Guys,

 

Wondered if someone could Advise on an issue.

 

I am currently dealing with the Woolwich reagarding my account. Its currently at the AQ stage at Harlow CC.

 

Now I am also doing my fathers and sent off the SAR.

Woolwich responded with a letter saying that there were no charges on the account.

 

Surley they cannot do that and still have to send me the statements?

 

Any suggestions??

 

Regards,

 

Ron

hello,

if i were you i would ask them to prove it by sending the statements, it sounds like they are delaying well at least being advasive.

is it possible tho that there might be no charges?

Thanks Ben,

 

I thought that was the case. Really rude and blunt letter which really p*ssed me off to be honest.

 

So should I just send another SAR or is there a Template letter (I think there is a Tplate but just want to confirm:D )

 

Many thanks,

 

Ron

There is no proof or letter writing required: you have made a request under Data Protection Act, and they are legally obliged to comply with this...nothing else is relevant.

 

If you worded the letter as per the template (which I am sure you did) then by law they MUST provide you with a complete transaction history (or statements in the alternative) plus any other notes and details as are held against the account.

 

The only issue to be considered is one of your authority to manage your father's requests...good luck.

Hi Druid,

 

Again thats what I was thinking. Just a delay tactic.

I have had that with CitiFinance sending me just one A4 sheet with No charges. Will be dealing with them later.

 

 

My Father is 99.9% sure there were charges incurred on the account, and I am inclined to agree as I remember him mentioning it some time ago.

 

Should I use a Template Letter, a new one from Scratch or an SAR again?

 

 

regards,

 

Ron

Phoenix,

 

 

Letter as per template word for word.

As I am only communicating by post (As advised on here :D ) I am having no issue with ID.

 

To proceed from here do I need to make Verbal contact or can I contact by post demanding ALL statements and information?

 

regards,

 

Ron

I would simply wait until they have seven days left to comply with SAR, then write them a note reminding them of this fact...

So something along the lines of,

 

"regarding your response dated xx/xx/xx, I have as yet, not recived any Account correspondance relating to Account history or statements.

 

As I am sure you are fully aware, you have 7 days to supply me with all the requested information by law.

 

If such information is not recived within this time period, further action will ensue. "

 

Suggestions or comments welcome :D

 

Cheers,

 

Ron

That is pretty much it - you have told them that they have not yet complied, and that they have seven more days in which to do so...that letter would be ideal.

Many thanks Phoenix,

 

 

What would be the next move if they did not respond within the 7 day period?
