    • Apologies dx100uk  I did not put the answers in red  Thank you all for your patience. H
    • Which Court have you received the claim from ? Northampton  Name of the Claimant ? Overdales solicitors  How many defendant's  joint or self ?  Self Date of issue – top right hand corner of the claim form – this in order to establish the time line you need to adhere to.  13 may 2024 What is the claim for – the reason they have issued the claim? the claim is for the sum of £6163.61due by the defendant under an agreement regulated by the consumer credit act 1974 for hsbc uk bank plc. Account 4546384809766042. The defendant faild 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 as not been compiled with. The dbt was legally assigned to the Claimant on 23/08/23, notice on which as 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 £117.53 the Claimant claims the sum of £6281.14. Have you received prior notice of a claim being issued pursuant to paragraph 3 of the PAPDC (Pre Action Protocol) ?   Not to my knowledge. Have you changed your address since the time at which the debt referred to in the claim was allegedly incurred?  No Do you recall how you entered into the agreement...On line /In branch/By post ?  Online but it was for a smaller amount they kept on increasing this with me asking Has the claim been issued by the original creditor or was the account assigned and it is the Debt purchaser who has issued the claim.  It was assigned to a debt collection agency  Were you aware the account had been assigned – did you receive a Notice of Assignment? yes  Did you receive a Default Notice from the original creditor?  Yes I also made offers to pay original creditor a smaller amount but was not replied to Have you been receiving statutory notices headed “Notice of Sums in Arrears”  or " Notice of Arrears "– at least once a year ?  No Why did you cease payments? I was made redundant and got a less paid job I also spent some time on furlough during covid and spent some 3 months on ssp off work. What was the date of your last payment?  May 2021 Did you communicate any financial problems to the original creditor and make any attempt to enter into a debt management plan? Yes at the time I communicated with all my creditor's that I was running out of funds to pay the original agreements once my redundancy money ran out that was when my accounts defaulted. I then wrote to all my creditor's with pro rata offers of payments but debt collectors took over the accounts.
    • Just an update for all. I received about a letter every other week, increasing in threat levels. Then I hadn't had one for a about two weeks, then Saturday received a carbon copy of the very first letter they sent me in February. Made me laugh, rinse and repeat. 
    • So, your response was not received by the SCP as you did not send it with a valid stamp. Therefore, from my two option in post #14, the first option is the only one available to you, but you do not have the option of asking to be sentenced at the fixed penalty level as the reason the SCP did not receive your response was down to you. Here's a reminder of what to do: Respond to the SJPN by pleading “Not Guilty” to both charges. In the “Reasons for pleading Not Guilty” box state that you are willing to plead guilty to the speeding charge providing, and only providing, the “Fail to Provide Driver's Details" (FtP) charge is dropped. This is a tried and tested method to deal with your problem and is almost always successful. Before the pandemic it was necessary to attend court to do this "deal" because it needs the agreement of the police prosecutor.. During the pandemic courts made every effort to have as few  people as possible attend and they began doing this deal under the "Single Justice" procedure without the defendant's attendance. Some courts have carried this procedure on whilst others have reverted to a personal attendance being necessary. If you are required to attend, your case will be taken out of the SJ procedure and you will be given a date for a hearing in the normal Magistrates' Court. If that is the way they do it in the area involved you will have to attend, see the prosecutor and offer your "deal" in person.

    • 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,

had a good look round the barclays threads can't find the above. The o/d fee is £5 per month as aginst the una o/d fee at £ 20

 

Is the first one reclaimable?

If not do I deduct £5 from the unauth o/d charge of £28?

I also had an o/d protectiopn of 1000 x £0.80 /100 = £8.00 per month. I don't remember asking for this, I assume it is legit though?

 

There is also ' unpaids out 1 @ £25. I assume this is a charge for unpaid chq/s/o d/d etc..?

Hi,

 

The o/d fee of £5 is part of your account so you have to pay that unfortunately. It is a charge for your overdraft facility. It is a separate charge though and will have been listed separately so you don't deduct anything from the others. Not sure about the protection but it sounds like another one that is part of a facility you have. Although you could probably cancel it if you wanted, although they will prob try and talk you out of it. I have never taken on this protection rubbish, I see it as just another way for them to take money from you.

 

As for all the others though, unauthorised overdraft, unpaids out and referrals are all claimable charges so definately include those.

 

Good luck

Barclays have not responded at all. They offered £600 against £1050 in March. I rejected this and went on to file in court.

 

It is a directions hearing ( 10 mins) should I be worried at this stage|?

 

I seemd to thinkmthey paid up before this

No dont be worried this is std procedure, I would suggest that you try and contact the Lit Team [see my signature for link] tell them you are in court...dont let on it is only a directions hearing... ask if they are prepared to settle.

If they dont settle there and then but have agreed to do so, you can inform the judge of this tomorrow, he will then prob make a ruling there in favour of your claim.

if you cannot get hold of anyone before tomorrow simply mention it to the judge that you have repeatedly attempted to contact the defendant in order to attempt out of court settlement to prevent wasting his time..

BTW this was my POC, do you think it's OK?

 

 

 

 

BETWEEN

 

Destiny - CLAIMANT

 

And

 

 

Barclies Plc - DEFENDANT

 

PARTICULARS OF CLAIM

 

 

 

 

1. The Claimant has an account, number xxxxxx, sort code xxxx, ("the Account") with the Defendant.

 

2. During the period in which the Account has been operating the Defendant has automatically debited numerous charges to the Account in respect of purported breaches of contract on the part of the Claimant and also charged interest on the charges once applied. The Claimant understands that the Defendant contends that the charges were debited in accordance with the terms of the contract between itself and the Claimant.

 

3. A list of the charges (“the Schedule”) applied is attached to these Particulars of Claim.

 

4. The Claimant contends that:

 

a) The charges debited to the Account are punitive in nature; are not genuine pre-estimates of costs incurred by the Defendant; exceed any alleged actual loss to the Defendant in respect of any breaches of contract on the part of the Claimant; and are not intended to represent or related to any alleged actual loss, but instead unduly enrich the Defendant which exercises the contractual term in respect of such charges with a view to profit.

 

b) The contractual provision that permits the Defendant to levy such charges is unenforceable by virtue of

i) the Unfair Terms In Consumer Contracts Regulations 1999 particularly but not limited to Regulations 5, 6 and 8 and Schedule 2, 1 e); and

ii); the Unfair Contract Terms Act 1977, particularly but not limited to sections 3 and 11 and Schedule 2 and;

iii) the common law and Case Law relating to liquidated damages and penalties in contracts.

 

c) To the extent that it is found that the Defendant’s charges are for the provision of banking services the Claimant contends that the price thereof is unreasonable pursuant to section 15 of the Supply of Goods and Services Act 1982.

 

6. Accordingly the Claimant claims:

 

a) the return of the amounts debited to the Claimant’s account in respect of charges in the sum of £1050.00 as per attached Schedule.

 

b) Court costs; £120.00

 

c) Interest pursuant to section 69 County Courts Act 1984 at 8% per annum of £129.41

 

d) Interest pursuant to section 69 County Courts Act 1984 at 8% per annum from the date of the claim until the date of judgement/settlement at a daily rate of £0.23

 

STATEMENT OF TRUTH

 

I believe that the contents of these particulars of claim are true

Hi - you must be worried that no one has got back to you - I understand. I'm not an expert in this at all - I struggled thro' the procedure for my son. Luckily I did settle for the full amount + 8% and did not go to court, just. Tho' it took nearly 2 weeks for the ££ to get paid. Now as I said, I'm no expert - but basically the charges are unlawful, if you look at the link where the chap lost against Lloyds a few months ago, this breaks down the reasons why he lost - unusually the judge questioned him. I could try and quote what some of it says but I don't want to give you incorrect info. Hopefully someone with much more knowledge will come back to you soon and give more guidance - but Barclays still may not show up. Mind you your claim is for much more than my sons (£800ish) - so be prepared. Good Luck - I hope it goes well

Thanks for your help stagey,

 

I am worried sick, in fact I feel as though I am going to be sick!!

I am really not the type of person for all this. I am leaving in 30 mins for court and I am no more confident than I was when I first started the claim.

I just haven't got a clue what to say, although I have read as much as I can on here, I still feel I don't know what to do.

 

I am a little disappointed there is no-one to give me support, especially at this time, but I understand there are thousands also needing help, and the helpers can't be everywehre. I hope the bank don't catch on that I'm too nervous and play on that.

 

Wish me luck, I'm going to need it.

Don't worry, this happened to my friend and their solicitor had a cheque waiting for them - nothing to be worried about, just be calm and confident.

 

BTW - Good luck

Remember, the judge will understand that you are not experienced at this,

just state the reason you are there.

 

the bank has applied what you feel to be penalty charges to your account for being overdrawn etc

its not the fact of being charged its the amount you were charges for doing so.

and would like the bank to show how they got to the amount of £20, 30 35 for each charge when it has been shown [the whistleblower tv program] that it only costs the bank £1.50 - £2.50 to apply the charge.

it is also stated that banks are not allowed to make a profit by applying penalty charges, which they clearly are.

you are there today to either request your money back shown in your SOC's

OR

the bank to clearly show and prove how they legally arrive at the amounts charged.

 

point out there are thousands being paid out daily

approx £15,000,000 on CAG alone.

 

 

good luck

Hi Destiny,

 

This is going to happen to me on 6th August (I'm certain as I am claiming nearly £6,400 and I have a directions hearing) so I wanted to wish you all the best - I hope it all goes well for you. What Dar£n has said seems to make perfect sense to me so good luck.

 

I'm going to keep an eye on this as I'm not far behind you.

 

GOOD LUCK,

 

KA
