    • Better version attached with the late appeal explained more clearly for the judge. This will sound silly, but I think it would be a good idea to e-mail it to the court and UKPC on Sunday.  It's probably me being daft, but Sunday is still March, and as it's late, sending it in March rather than April will make it sound like it was less late than it really is.  if you get my drift. You can still pop in a paper version on Tuesday if you want. E-mail address for the court: [email protected] And for UKPC: [email protected]   [email protected] Defendant WS.pdf
    • Update 15th March the eviction notice period expired, and I paid my next month rent along with sending them the message discussed above. After a short while they just emailed me back this dry phrase "Thank you for your email." In two weeks' time I'm gonna need to pay the rent again, and I have such a feeling that shortly after that date the contracts will be exchanged and all the payments will be made.  Now my main concern is, if possible, not to end up paying rent after I move out.  
    • they cant 'take away' anything, what ever makes you believe that?  dx  
    • The text on the N1SDT Claim Form 1.The claim is for breaching the terms and conditions set on private land. 2. The defendant's vehicle, NumberPlate, was identified in the Leeds Bradford Airport Roadways on the 28/07/2023 in breach of the advertised terms and conditions; namely Stopping in a zone where stopping is prohibited 3.At all material times the Defendant was the registered keeper and/or driver. 4. The terms and conditions upon  entering private land were clearly displayed at the entrance and in prominent locations 5. The sign was the offer and the act of entering private land was the acceptance of the offer hereby entering into a contract by conduct. 6.The signs specifically detail the terms and conditions and the consequences of failure to comply,  namely a parking charge notice will be issued, and the Defendant has failed to settle the outstanding liability. 7.The claimant seeks the recovery of the parking charge notice, contractual costs and interest.   This is what I am thinking of for the wording of my defence The Defendant contends that the particulars of claim are vague and are generic in nature which fails to comply with CPR 16.4. 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 denied. It is denied that the Defendant ever entered into a contract to breach any terms and conditions of the stated private land. 2. Paragraph 2 and 4 are denied. As held by the Upper Tax Tribunal in Vehicle Control Services Limited v HMRC [2012] UKUT 129 (TCC), any contract requires offer and acceptance. The Claimant was only contracted to provide car park management services and is not capable of entering into a contract with the Defendant on its own account, as the car park is owned by and the terms of entry set by the landowner. 3. It is admitted that Defendant is the recorded keeper of the vehicle. 4.  Paragraph 6 is denied the claimant has yet to evidence that their contract with the landowner supersedes  Leeds Bradford airport byelaws. Further it is denied that the Claimant’s signage is capable of creating a legally binding contract. 5. Paragraph 7 is denied, there are no contractual costs and interest cannot be accrued on a speculative charge.   I'm not sure whether point 4 is correct as I think this side road is not covered by byelaws? Any other suggestions/corrections 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 k488

 

It is difficult, if not impossible, to give an accurate assessment of your agreement without seeing it.

 

I suggest you start a new thread in the appropriate forum for this & post your agreement minus the personal details, then post a link to the thread here. This thread is so big you are in danger of your questions getting lost. :)

Any knowledge I possess or advice I proffer is based solely on my experiences in the University of Life. Please make your own assessment of legality, risks & costs before taking any action.

I have just been sent an agreement from santander formlely mbna, which belongs to someone else!! It had all her details on! Data protection springs to mind.

 

Report it to ICO saffy. More importantly have they sent you your agreement?!

The Information Commissioners contact details are here:

You need to write in with your complaint.

 

I suggest you also contact Santander & point out that (a) they have breached DPA & (b) they are in default of your S77/78 request under CCA1974 & that you expect them to comply within 7 days.

No rush to make a complaint, why not keep quiet and let them terminate and then take you to court- then argue that the court proceedings were unlawful due to their failure to comply with s78

 

when they say that they have sent you the agreement and made a statement confirming that what they sent you is your agreement (so therefore must be the same agreement that they produce in support of their claim) , you can deny that the documents sent to you are sufficient to give rise to a claim as they bear no reference to you (in fact someone else) ask for the case to be struck out and apply for costs

Hi,

Can anyone advise me regarding this response that I have received from 1st Credit in respect of a complaint after I received very aggressive telephone calls from them .......

 

I requested a copy of the telephone calls and 1st Credit state

"That we are not obliged to provide transcripts/recordings of telephone called as they are not held in a relevant filing system. This interpretation has been confirmed in writing by the Information Commissioners Office".

Furthermore it appears necessary to clarify the definition of a "true copy" of an agreement.

"Where a creditor reeives a request to supply a copy of the executed agreement, the Consumer Credit (Cancellation Notices and Copies of Docuements) Regualtion 1983 apply. Regulation 3(2) states that there may be various information omitted from this true copy. Details are not required to be in the agreement by law include the signature box, signature and date of signature. Thereforee the effect of Regulation 3(2) is that the creditor in only obliged to send out a generic copy of the agreement the debtor has signed up to. The creditor is not obliged to make an actual photocopy of the agreement".

 

"On this occasion 1st Credit have exeeded the required obligations of the law and have provided you with an actual photcopy of the agreement you signed".

 

My questions are:-

 

Is the above correct from 1st Credit insomuch that they are correct in all of the above ?.

 

They have forwarded me copy of the application form from MBNA which is LA-5-96-29-N which was signed in 1996.

 

I have heard that I also need to obtain a statement of account, hence does this mean from MBNA or from 1st Credit ? And, what is the statement of account ?.

 

How do I proceed from here ?.

 

I would really appreciate any help in knowing what to do next ?.

hi see if this of use - it has been copied from another thread and is allegedly from the OFT in May 08 -

 

Credit card agreement argument useful -

 

''Sections 77 and 78 of the CCA 1974 refer to supplying a copy of the ‘executed’ agreement within 12 working days of receiving a written request from the debtor. Failure to do so makes the agreement unenforceable against the debtor until a copy is provided.

 

Execution involves signing the agreement. If no agreement has been executed, it is impossible to supply a true copy of the agreement. Should a creditor supply a copy agreement, even though the debtor has never signed any agreement with that creditor, no indication should be given that it is a true copy or a copy of an executed agreement.

 

To do so may contravene Regulation 5 of the CPRs and be an unfair or improper business practice.

 

The consequence of the debtor not having signed a credit agreement with the creditor is that the agreement is unenforceable except where the court orders that enforcement may take place. Where the agreement was made before 6th April 2007 the court is not able to make such an order unless the agreement was signed by the debtor.

 

Therefore it is misleading to state, when complying with a section 77 or 78 request, that the debtor has signed or would have signed (or similar) the enclosed agreement where the debtor has not done so. From 26 May 2008 such a statement will be a breach of the Consumer Protection from Unfair Trading Regulations 2008 (CPRs). Regulation 5 of the CPRs states that a commercial practice is a misleading action if it contains false information in relation to the main characteristics of the product (amongst other matters) and is likely therefore to cause the average consumer to take a transactional decision he would not have taken otherwise. The product in question is the credit agreement and the main characteristics include the ‘execution of the product’ (Regulation 5(5)(d) of the CPRs).

 

Telling a consumer that he signed such an agreement is also a misleading statement about his rights and the risks he might face as covered by Regulation 5(4)(k) of the CPRs. It is our view that it is likely that a consumer will take a transactional decision to make a payment under the credit agreement or to refrain from exercising his rights under the agreement as a result of being misled about whether he signed it.

 

Breach of Regulation 5 of the CPRs is a criminal offence under Regulation 9 and can also be enforced under Part 8 of the Enterprise Act 2002. Under section 218A of the Enterprise Act, where an application for an Enforcement Order is made the court may require the Respondent ‘to provide evidence of the accuracy of any factual claim’ (such as a claim that a debtor has signed a credit agreement).

 

In addition, it should be noted that threats to take action that cannot be taken is listed as one of the factors that will be considered in assessing aggressive practices in Regulation 7(2) of the CPRs.

Hope it helps if you check it out it looks pretty stern stuff for these people who want to hide behind we are allowed to send an unsinged agreement out....

This of course is their one sided interpretation of the act.

 

This part of the act is a carry over from days when there were no copiers, so copy documents had to be typed or written by hand. In that case, obviously a True Copy could omit the signatures ( no way to copy them) and the date.

 

This is the usual current smoke and mirrors.

 

They are required to provide a "true copy" of your agreement. If they have not taken the copy directly from your agreement, how can they claim it is a true copy. Sending a generic agreement is not providing a true copy.

 

They should provide a statement of account at the time they issued the CCA copy. This should come from whoever repplied to your CCA request.

 

I will post a letter in response on your thread.

I hope I have not infringed the rules by posting here.

I have posted my own thread;

http://www.consumeractiongroup.co.uk/forum/store-cards/226478-new-look-store-card.html#post2510975

 

In my case I do have the CCA for a New Look Store card taken out in Nov 2007 by my OH.

 

the carbon copy we have has not got any of her personal details on it. It is signed by her, there is no date on there and is not signed by the creditor.

 

Only received fishing letter from DCA. We have made no verbal/written contact as of yet.

 

My question is if we requested a copy of the CCA and say they did send an exact copy. I assume they would therefore add in her name and address and a date. Would that have any consequences on their part?

 

OH spent £28 and was duped into signing for store card which I imagine now would amount to many hundreds of pounds, because of interest and fees.

 

As I said I have already posted a thread but had not received any replies although it was only yesterday midday I posted. I do not want to appear impatient.

 

I will add most of this to my thread for further clarity.

 

If you could help in anyway at all it may be better to view my thread it has the full story.

 

I appreciate any help on this.

Captain you say it is not enforceable because of the fact it is not signed.

 

I have seen conflicting information on that opinion so not sure.

 

We have yet to start the ball rolling on this as to make contact now would mean a barrage of contact from DCA since OH only uses this as postal address (C/O) it would be unwise;

 

a) to contact DCA/creditor until we have enough knowledge and info.

 

b) to contact ombudsman as we have not taken up complaint with creditor or DCA

 

c) contact credit agency to obtain copy of file as that would inadvertently alert the DCA/creditor to the fact that their fishing letter has reached the correct party.

 

In any case thanks for the input. Anything positive can only be encouraging.

Is there anything concrete available you could point me towards on here.

 

I must admit I am reasonably PC and internet savvy but I am a bit overwhelmed on this site at the moment.

 

I see you are quite new to here too. So perhaps you are as lost as me LOL

 

Thanks for your time.

AverageMan, you (and the other posters asking questions about their individual cases) really need to have your own thread.

 

Go to the Forums Homepage (www.consumeractiongroup.co.uk/forum) and start a new thread in the relevant subforum - there's a beginner's guide to CAG in my signature if you don't know how.

 

This will mean all posts/replies to your thread will be in one place and incorrect/inaccurate information can be publicly corrected.

 

FYI - the Creditor's signature isn't a requirement to enforce the debt, as s.127(1) and s.127(3) CCA 1974 only requires a debtors signature as a minimum to allow enforcement. That's for agreements signed before 7 April 2007. Any agreements signed after that date don't even require a debtor's signature, as s.127(3) was repealed by the CCA 2006.

 

Once you have started your new thread, someone will be along to advise you on your next steps.

 

;)

I have finally recieved a reply from the cca request to Link. I have sent the SAR to mbna but nothing yet. I sent the cca request to Link months ago. They have sent the cca it is for Abbey MBNA card from 2002. It is signed and dated and it does say on the front page about "a summary of the Financial & Related Conditions for each product is set out overleaf". I have uploaded the front and back of the cca. The writing is so small but I wonder if its enforceable?
