    • Thank you very much for your letter in regard to the above mentioned shipment.  Due to the high volume of parcels coursing through the courier network each day, undergoing continuous processing and handling, certain packages may experience delays or even can get lost in the course of this journey. Please note that due to the time that has passed, this shipment has been declared as lost.  I have today processed the claim and made offers to the value of £75 as a goodwill gesture without prejudice. I do acknowledge that you have mentioned in your letter that the value was higher, however, you did not take out any protection to that amount. The protection for this shipment was £20 and we will not be increasing our goodwill offer any further.    Please log into your account online in order to accept our offer. Once accepted, our accounts department will process the claim accordingly. The claim payment will be processed and received within 7 working days.                                  In addition, a refund of the carriage fee will be processed as a separate payment and will be received within 3 working days.  If I can further assist, please feel free to contact me.   I have also just noticed that yesterday afternoon they sent me an email stating that "after my request" they have refunded the cost of shipping. I did not request the refund so will mention that in my letter as well.
    • Hi I had to leave Dubai back in 2011, during the financial crisis. And only now have I received a letter from IDRWW. Is this anything to worry about about as I have 2 years left until it’s been 15 years(statute barred in Dubai). Worried as just got a mortgage 2 years ago. Could they force me in to bankruptcy? Red lots of different threads on here. And unsure what true and what isn’t. 
    • Not that TOR will see this now he's thrown in the hand grenade. Rayner has plenty of female supporters on X, for a start. As for the council and HMRC, fair enough and I thought Rayner was already in touch with them.

    • Often with the Likes of Lowells/ Overdales that 'proof' doesn't stand up to scrutiny.   Think about it like a game of poker, they want to intimidate you into folding and giving up as soon as possible, and just get you to pay up and roll over, that is their business model, make you think your cards are rubbish. What they don't expect, and their business isn't set up for it, is for a defendant to find this place and to learn that they have an amazing set of cards to play. Overdales don't have an infinite number of lawyers, paralegals etc, and the time / money to spend on expensive court cases, that they are highly likely to lose, hence how hard they will try to get you to roll over.  Even to the extent of faking documents, which they need to do because the debts that they purchased were so cheap, in the first place. Nevertheless it works in most cases, most people chicken out, when they are so close to winning, and a holding defence is like slowly showing Overdales your first card, and a marker of intention that this could get tricky for them. In fact it may be,  although by no means guaranteed that it won't even go any further than that.  Even if it does, what they send you back will almost certainly have more holes than Swiss Cheese, and if with the help you receive here, you can identify those weaknesses and get the whole thing tossed in the bin.

    • 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.

Yes but if its put to them if you don't remove the default you can wait for the money or get the default removed and I'll pay you a nice lump sum.............saying after all I've nothing to lose.................

 

If he plays it well I think they'll back down - I've seen it on other threads

 

Fair point, i suppose theres nothing like a lump of cash as a bargaining tool ;)

the DCA cannot default her if they cannot prove the debt. I also think she would have a good case to fight the original lender over a default that wasnt entirely of her own making. Obviously the person in the origal lenders office went to the same charm school as the DCAs. I would put my case in writing to the original lender

Hi guys,

 

Just to clear up any confusion I'm a he :D

 

It just doesn't sit right in my mind that I get defaulted in such circumstances and so I will do everything I can to stop it happening. I'm going to try to do my best this weekend to not think about it. Then on Monday at 10am I'll discuss my options with my solicitor. I wonder how many calls I'll get from 1st Credit before then?!

Are you aware that a default notice has to be served on the debtor to be valid? The default notice also has to be accurate (specific to you) and contain prescribed terms to be valid.

Hi all,

 

Latest installment .....

 

Received settlement letter offer from 1st Credit this morning. Interesting points to note are:

 

  • My name is spelt incorrectly.
  • They have given me until end of July to make full payment (previously it was due mid-July).
  • There is no mention of need to pay something immediately.
  • There is no confirmation of a default not being recorded on my credit file.
  • The letter is dated 22nd June (yesterday) despite the fact that I was told yesterday that 'a letter' was sent on 21st June.

I'll take it along with me to solicitor on Monday but would I be right in thinking as they don't have the correct name on the letter I haven't actually been issued with the demand so don't arguably need to act?

It just shows how incompetent tey are. Sorry to sound negative but 1st credit are not reknowned for their integrity and if you read other threads about them on here you will find what they are really like, They will soon start on their usual harrasing threat calls. Go down the CCA route before you do anything. They may appear to be offering to save you 4 grand when in actual fact they may have no right to demand anything

Needless to say another phone call just received that I rejected. No voicemail this time. I simply sent another e-mail stating that I have requested on numerous occasions yesterday that I do not want to be contacted by phone and to put all communication in writing.

 

I am definitely not paying anything given the incompetence and blatant lies they have told so far. I'm going to wait until I've seen my solicitor on Monday but am highly likely to be requesting the CCA that afternoon.

Sorry Rory, could you explain this a bit more for me? Does this mean they would need to notify me of the default?

Yes, by sending you a default notice that conforms to the CCA1974 and the Consumer Credit (Enforcement Default and Termination Notices) Regulations.

Just checked the terms of the loan and it does state clearly:

 

"If you fail to pay any monthly installment ... we shall have to give you at least 7 days' notice in writing, to give you a chance to put things right, if this can be done, or to pay us compensation, if not. This is called a default notice."

 

I have never received one of these. First communication was from 1st Credit telling me the entire balance was due!

Then the default isn't valid. Send off for your CCA immediately too. If you're seeing your solicitors tomorrow the court case to cite re the CCA is Wilson v Minister of Trade & Industry 2005

 

Don't let them intimidate you these DCA's & never trust a word they say.

 

Good luck tomorrow & let us know what's adviced

Hi there,

 

Sorry for the delay but after another week of fun and games here is the latest ...

 

Met with solicitor who advised the following:

 

a) It is very strange that my the lender did not state anywhere in the terms of the loan what happens when someone leaves employment.

b) I should approach 1st Credit asking for confirmation that they will accept £6500 as full and final payment and that the only adjustment made to my credit record will be to show the file as satisfied.

 

So I e-mailed 1st Credit asking for the above. 2 days later I received an e-mailed letter stating what I had asked, clearly stating they will update the file to show as 'satisfied'. I then presumed all would be okay.

 

However .... 2 days later I received a subsequent e-mail advising that they had spoken to the lender and they said they will only update it to show partially satisfied.

 

Solicitor is now away until Thursday and I'm getting sick of it dragging on!

 

I have just checked my credit file and the account is now showing as defaulted - b***ards!

 

Whilst I just want it to go away (and paying seems the easy option) I REALLY do not want that default hanging around for years especially when I was never even notified!

Hi Cluedup,

I've dealt with 1st credit, like you by email. It's all sorted now thankfully in my favour but since, I've been getting some very strange spam emails.

I'm not sure if they're related but from now on I'm going to use a disposable email when dealing with DCAs.

If you notice the same would you let me know? Anyone else noticed this?

 

Just because you're paranoid doesn't mean they're not out to get you:)

Play hardball - say no lift default then will pay debt at 10 a week. lift default i'll pay you the 6.5 k (or whatever). They'll cave in if you stand firm..........

Yeah DCA's like cash now rather than later. Keep plugging away at them, they will cave. Just make sure that any offer is accepted in writing as a full and final settlement with no strings attached.
