    • I disagree with the charge and also the statements sent. Firstly I have not received any correspondence from DVLA especially a statutory notice dated 2/5/2024 or a notice 16/5/2024 voiding my licence if I had I would have responded within this timeframe. The only letter received was the single justice procedure notice dated the 29.5.2024 this was received on 4.6.2024. I also disagree with the statement that tax was dishonoured through invalid indemnity claim. I disagree that the licence be voided I purchased the vehicle in Jan 2024 from RDA car sales Pontefract with agreement to collect the car on the 28.1.2024. The garage taxed the vehicle on the 25.1.24 for eleven payments on direct debit  using my debit card on my behalf. £62.18 was the initial payment on 8.2.24  and £31 per month thereafter the second payment was 1.3.24.This would run from Jan 24 to Dec 24 and a total of £372.75, therefore the car was clearly taxed before  I took the car away After checking one of my vehicle apps  I could see the vehicle was showing as untaxed it later transpired that DVLA had cancelled my tax , without reason and I did not receive any correspondence from DVLA to state why it was cancelled or when. The original payment of £62.18 had gone through and verified by my bank Lloyds so this payment was not declined. I then set up the direct debit again straight away at my local post office branch on 15.2.2024 the first payment was £31 on 1.3.2024 and subsequent payments up to Feb 2025 with a total of £372.75 which was the same total as the original DD that was set up in Jan, Therefore I claimed the £62.18 back from my bank as an indemnity claim as this payment was from the original cancelled tax from DVLA and had been cancelled . I have checked my bank account at Lloyds and every payment since Jan 24  up to date has been taken with none rejected as follows: 8.2.24 - £62.15 1.3.24 - £31.09 2.4.24 - £31.06 1.5.24 - £31.06 3.6.23-£31.06 I have paper copies of the original DD set up conformation plus a breakdown of payments per month , and a paper copy of the second DD setup with breakdown of payments plus a receipt from the post office.I can also provide bank statements showing each payment to DVLA I also ask that my licence be reinstated due to the above  
    • You know hes had it when they call out those willing to say anything even claiming tories have reduced taxes on live tv AS Salmonella says: The Conservative Party must embrace Nigel Farage to “unite the right”, Suella Braverman has urged, following a disastrous few days for Rishi Sunak. The former home secretary told The Times there was “not much difference” between the new Reform UK leader’s policies and those of the Tories, as senior Conservatives start debating the future of the party. hers.   AND Goves replacement gets caught booking in an airbnb to claim he lives locally .. as of yesterday you can rent it yourself in late July - as he'll either be gone or claiming taxpayer funded expenses for a house Alongside pictures of himself entering a house, Mr McGuinness said Surrey Heath residents “rightly expect their MP to be a part of their community”. - So whens farage getting around to renting (and subletting) a clacton beach hut?   Gove’s replacement caught out on constituency house claim as home found on Airbnb WWW.INDEPENDENT.CO.UK Social media users quickly pointed out house Ed McGuinness had posted photos in was available to rent     As Douglas Ross says he'll stand down in scotland - if he wins a Westminster seat - such devotion.
    • I've completed a draft copy to defend and will post up here for review.  Looking over the dates and payments this all stemmed from DVLA cancelling in Feb , whereby I set up a new DD in Feb hence the overlap, why they cancelled when I paid originally in Jan I have no idea. Anyway now stuck with pending court action and a suspended licence . I am also firing off a letter to DVLa recorded disputing the licence revoke
    • Thank you both for your expert knowledge and understanding. You're fighting the good fight by standing up for people like me and others with limited knowledge of this stuff. I thank you. I know all my DVLA details are good. I recently (last year) renewed my license, and my car's V5 is current with the correct details; the same is valid for my partner. I'll continue to ignore the love letters 😂 and won't let it bother either me or my partner.  I'll revisit this post if/when I get a letter of claim.  F**k ém.

    • 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. Just getting back to the original thread topic – loan company not supplying a copy of agreement. I need some advice please. It concerns a credit card company & an alleged debt of about £620 or so. I sent a CCA request to the DCA acting on behalf of the credit card company. Their 12 days to comply came and went a while ago – in fact it was due to reach the “criminal offence” stage on 30th June. On Saturday (23rd June) I received what I’d been asking for (sigh….) & it appears to be genuine. So, they have now supplied a copy of the original agreement, all properly signed & everything BUT obviously after the 12 day period. Where does that leave me? Do I now have to make arrangements to pay, or do they now need to get a court to “re-enforce” the agreement that became unenforceable after the expiry of the original 12 day? What advice would other forum members with more knowledge than me give? Also – I requested a deed of assignment. What they have supplied is a copy of a letter from the original credit card company saying that they’ve sold the debt to the DCA. Does that constitute a deed of assignment, or is there an actual legal document I should be demanding? Finally, the DCA have also provided a statement of account – most of the “debt” is made up of interest charges, late payment charges, etc. imposed by the credit card company. The original debt is little more than £200 (I only had a credit limit on this card of £250). Finally, if it reached the point of settling, I’ve read somewhere that most DCA’s buy debts at about 5 to 7% of their value – so this one probably cost them £30 - £70 maximum. Would it be worth making a seemingly ridiculous offer of payment? All advice gratefully received.

 

 

Has anybody got any advice on this please? Really struggling. Thanks.

Hi soli

 

From what I have understood by reading other threads on here, if a properly executed agreement DOES appear, albeit a bit late, then there is not a lot you can do about it. If you are 100% sure that it IS a properly executed agreement (best to have a good read up on other threads to find out what a proper one does consist of) then you are best to move on to the next step.

 

The next step would be to S.A.R. them so that you can find out the total of all the charges and then claim these back; then make repayment offers on what you only lawfully owe by way of the debt which in your case appears to be in the region of £200. However it sounds as if they already sent you all the information you need for you to work out their hefty and unlawful charges so you have no need to S.A.R. them and can save yourself the £10 fee.

 

I personally feel the way the CCA legislation is being used by the consumer is really to weed out those who can lawfully chase us for alleged debts and do in fact have a properly executed agreement and those who cannot - i.e., those DCAs who are "shooting in the dark" who don't have an agreement and never have had or are likely to have.

 

In your case the DCA have complied with your request between the default and criminal offence stage, a pain in the proverbial I know, but they have complied. I've found out the ones who I am sure don't have anything like an agreement have not got in touch at all - I am still waiting and we are talking 3 to 4 months of no contact whatsoever now!

 

As for the Deed of Assignment, well again the fact the DCA have provided you with a properly executed copy of an agreement I personally would not push this any more BUT this is just my own personal opinion Soli, others may have differing advice and a more proactive approach than me.

 

For my own part Soli, I would send a preliminary letter to the DCA now regarding the charges - there are templates in the library on here. I seem to recall one of the members on here saying that if there is a properly executed agreement in place its an idea to offer them about 40 to 50% by way of full and final settlement so in your case once the charges are deducted that would be about £100 at most.

 

I'm not legally qualified or anything, and am sure that if I am wrong in any of this someone on here will correct me. I'm only advising you as if I were in your shoes what I would do :)

 

Good luck!

Hiya, Just a quick question, a couple of the companies i have sent a cca request to have replied in writing that they cannot find the agreement. Do i still wait the extra 30 days now as the 12 days are up?

Also you mentioned reporting them but im not sure who to.

 

thanks

If you want to. They will find out soon enough but it is always best to fully explain for the avoidance of any doubt. Then when they try to pursue you, you can point to a wealth of evidence of where you kept them fully informed and they ploughed on regardless. It will support your arguments and give more scope for a complaint to the regulatory authorities.

Well i CCA'd Metropolitan and the 12 day deadline expired on friday. I got a letter & phone call that day, thanking me for my £1 repayment and asking me to set up regular funding !!!

 

I explained to the lady on the phone, that the £1 Postal order was the fee for a copy of my agreement, not a repayment & she replied ' HSBC supplied you with the best information they have, and we are just acting on their behalf, we dont have to supply you with anything'.

 

Rather amused, i asked how she felt the law did not apply to Metropolitan, and seeing as i have still not recieved a legitimate copy of my agreement from HSBC or Metro, how they expected to collect this debt.

 

She kept saying 'How would you like to make repayments ? We will be taking this matter to court if it is not resolved !', until i asked her to stop repeating herself and informed her any claim would be met with a counter-claim under the Data Protection Act.

 

Silence for literally a minute,

 

After another 5 minutes of poor excuses and long silences, I asked if there was anything else i could help her with and she said no, and hung up !!

Can I just throw in a cautionary note here for anyone who thinks that they can just stop paying until a copy of the original agreement is supplied.

 

In my opinion, if the lender took you to court, even without the agreement, a judge would have reasonable grounds to make an order against you if the lender could demonstrate that you had made payments to them. After all, you wouldn't randomly send money to someone that you didn't owe money to. By making repayments you are acknowledging the debt and a judge would be reasonable in seeing this. The only thing in question would be the amount of the debt, not whether it actually exists.

Really? - since you are such an expert perhaps you would enlighten me and the rest of the population.

 

As I said, it is an opinion and based on advice, I do believe that a Judge would consider sudden avoidance of repayments where they had previously been made to determine that the debt had been acknowledged. The agreement is supplied to both parties and despite of the requirements of the CCA, the creditor could reasonably demonstrate acknowledgement of the debt by virtue of previous repayments.

 

Bear in mind that the burden of proof in the civil court is only 51% (the balance of probabilities) and personally, I wouldn't want to bet against the lender if you have already made repayments.

Are you really a "gold account customer"? enlighten you well if the countless threads and posts are not enough to enlighten you to the fact that contract law is superseded by the consumer credit act and no agreement makes the debt unenforceable (i.e the Wilson case) then there really is no help for you.

 

I'm no expert but for sure I don't have to eat bull sh1t to know that it doesn't taste nice.

 

Really your post and each sentence and paragraph contained therein can be shot down in flames.

meshi is right, you're talking nonsense. I suggest you read the Consumer Credit Act 1974, in particluar sections 60, 61, 65 and 127.

 

If there is no agreement (or an agreement lacking prescribed terms) a judge is prohibited from making an enforcement order.

 

It wouldn't matter if the debtor had a t-shirt on saying 'I owe the money', the law is the law and a judge must implement it.

There is one correct thing you have said amongst the utter rubbish you have just spouted. A civil court is on the balance of probability.

No, I'm not talking nonsense and yes Meshi - Gold Account Customer with a very big win under my belt. So far, one of the few people to actually sit in a court room with a bank and win!

 

If you bother to read and digest what I have said, I am saying that I would not advocate the sudden avoidence of repayments on the basis that the agreement cannot be supplied. I am very familiar with the terms of the CCA 1974 (which was incidentally amended in 2006 - have a read because the amendments are relevant) but this does not alter the fact that a Judge is required to consider ALL of the facts and previous repayments would SUGGEST the existance of an AGREEMENT.

 

It is a long way from being a water tight case if payments to the creditor can be proven.

See, you're doing it again!

 

Right, first things first. The 2006 amendments are not retrospective in terms of S127, so if an agreement was made before 6th April 2007, it is still covered by S127 and is completely unenforceable if no agreement exists.

 

So, are you actually saying that if a creditor takes a debtor to court and no agreement exits, and the debtor points this out to the judge, then the judge may still make an enforcement order simply on the basis that payments have been made?

Sorry Cobbet Slayer as Ian states your advice is just plain wrong :o

 

The CCA 2006 is NOT retrospective & a court CANNOT, under any circumstances, make an order without the creditor producing a 'properly executed signed agreement' if that agreement was entered into pre April 2006 :-D

 

Why on earth do you keep insisting your correct when you not. Are you employed by a creditor or DCA :confused:

 

Take the time & trouble to read some of the threads on this site & you will see many members who have had debts canceled as a result of the OC or DCA not being able to produce a valid agreement

 

As a matter of fact even if the agreement is post 2006 then the OC still has to produce a valid signed agreement in order to enforce.

 

The difference is that the court can now enforce a debt even if the agreement is not technically correct. A signature is still required

If you take the trouble to read my original post again, it is neither advice, nor is it misinformation. It is an opinion and that is that an agreement MAY be inferred by virtue of previous repayments.

 

I am fully aware of the terms of the CCA - 1974, 2002 and 2006 regarding the production of an agreement - I am simply throwing another point of thought into the pot and that doesn't make me wrong - it means I'm opening up the debate.
