    • god they've got at you haven't they. told you all the usual utter BS. a CCJ vanishes from your credit file on it's 6th B'Day regardless to being paid off or not or paying or not. same with any debt with a registered defaulted date - it vanishes from your file on the DN's 6th B'day regardless. creditfix are Knightsbridge, (they renamed) there are 100's of threads here on Knightsbridge, if i remember rightly 2 of the directors of a certain very big IVA provider were struck off for embezzling £1m's out of debtors. pers i'd stop paying now.  end of . just ignore them all. 99% of your debts are to utterly powerless DCA's and probably were never owed in the first place only goes to firm up my belief from post one..you got had blind. its very easy to deal with the debts even those with CCJ's. can you copy and paste what you credit file says regarding the IVA please?

    • Sorry I meant credit fix - I really wish I'd known this before - kicking myself right now  If they come back to me asking for more money I'll cancel it and start trying to deal with the debt myself let's see what they say  Feeling tempted to cancel it now but scared that some of the debts will do more CCJ's on me and I'll have to wait 6 years again.  2 of the CCJ come of this year and then I'll only have the iva in credit file - effectively if I'd have not took out the iva in 2021 I'd have clear score by now - but then again would I because I would have been hounded the last 3 years, as bad as it is it's saves me lots of headaches whilst my debt was still within the 6 year mark.  I think most of them are near there but in all honesty no point chasing them if I do cancel iva I'd jjst wait for the ones who contact me and then start the relevant letter process on them.  Of over 6 years easy if not still possible to write off. My true victory would be having the iva wiped off my credit file as mis sold or something that way I Don't have to wait till 2027 Other option is to fight back and ask for them to offer the creditors to accept payments so far and use the following method    Will your IVA firm agree to complete your IVA on the basic of funds paid to date? The Guidance lists a lot of factors to be considered in deciding whether a settlement on the basis of funds paid to date should be proposed. You should read the list. But that may not give you any feel for whether they apply to you or not. The following are my thoughts on when an IVA should be treated as settled, not failed. They assume that you have £75 or less to pay a month: if you would currently qualify for a Debt Relief Order, then your IVA should be settled now  There is no point in making your IVA fail and you have to apply for a DRO – it will not generate another penny for your creditors. If you are renting and owe less than £50,000, check the DRO criteria now and talk to National Debtline on 0808 808 4000 about whether you qualify. You may have been told at the start of your IVA that you aren’t eligible – still check now as the DRO criteria have changed, your situation has got worse, and some people were given incorrect information about DROs at the start. if you have no assets that would be realised in bankruptcy (eg a house with equity, car worth over £2000), then your IVA should be settled now Same as (1), there is no point in making you apply for bankruptcy after your IVA fails. if your only asset is a car that is worth less than £8000, then your IVA should be settled now A car that is worth say £5000 would normally be sold in bankruptcy and you would be given a small amount to buy a cheaper car. But your creditors would not get any benefit from this as the Insolvency Service takes the first £8000 raised to cover its own costs. if you have significant assets, the closer you are to the end of the IVA, the less reasonable it is to fail it If you have been paying your IVA for 4 years, you have done your best over a long period. It isn’t your fault you can no longer continue. The fact you may have had equity to release isn’t relevant as that simply isn’t going to be possible. if your situation will clearly improve soon, then it’s unlikely your IVA will be settled I mean real improvements, not hoping that prices fall. If I can get them to accept payment to date or threaten with cancellation hopefully they may accept it -  Other option is to try and borrow money and pay make a full and final offer  Or I can just ignore and hope for the best which I'm very tempted to do especially if they respond to my review with bullying tactics despite me being skint as a fart with no mortgage as renting  It's so stressful but I've just checked the iva agreement from 2021 and it's Cabot 2 accounts Lowell about 5 accounts and then lots of repeats of the same debt with for example zopa and Cabot same amount listed twice -  also loyyds banks but I'm sure that's older than 6 years and not on credit file anyway  If I can somehow remove the iva from my credit file I'd be happy

    • 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.

It says its the 8 working weeks they have to respond under some law. I dont have the letter with me. but it gives reference numbers as to Acts etc. I've wrote EVERYTHING on the crappy form that was attached, I've answered the questions, but I've also wrote CC:FOS in the top corner, my agreement number and other details in the other corner, in case they try to be cocky. Has anyone else received one of these 'you didnt give us enough info' letters?

No thats exactly what I thought. I was very careful when I filled out the form, I just told the truth....I was told I would have no loan unless I had the insurance, I didn't need health insurance etc, cos i get it with my job, and it was only after I realized I'd paid them about £5000 on £1000 loan with a £400 top up, I decided to complain. and it made matters worse when they told me I still owed them £1200

shame you didn't have an underlying health condition that would render the policy void and thet they didn't ask about it...but ho hum, can you prove your work health care insurance and that you had it at the time you took out the loan?

Sent my letter off a few weeks ago now, the one saying, I know you've conned me into buying insurances I didnt want, yadda yadda yadda. I've had a letter back saying they acknowledge my complaint, but are unable to act yet as I didnt supply enough information (although I give them my agreement number, PPI policy number, date of agreement etc), and they've attached a sheet asking me to give them more info....'Where was I when I took out the PPI', 'What do I remember about the time that I took out the PPI', 'What was my employment status at the time', 'Why have I decided to complain now' etc etc. Is this normal from them? There is a little line at the bottom of the letter that say I have a week to respond, and that if I dont respond within a week, they can reset the 40 days, and add the time it takes me to respond too. I've filled it out, shall I just send it back recorded delivery?

What a load of BS - they cannot reset any 40 days - it is 8 weeks (or 40 working days) from the time they recieve the initial complaint - AND THEY KNOW IT.

 

It's up to you if you fill in the form (by the way does it ask you to sign it?? :confused: - if it does DONT!!) I'd be inclined to write a typed letter back saying something like....

 

Dear Morons,

 

I am in receipt of your letter dated XXXXX the contents of which are noted. I have provided you with the information you require to proceed with invesitgating my complaint including reference numbers, personal information and the reason for my reclaim.

 

As you already have this information there is no reason why you cannot investigate my complaint fully at this time.

 

As you received my complaint on XXXXXX you now have XX days remaining and I should receive a refund or final response no later than XX/XX/2009.

 

Should I not receive this by the above date I will without further hesitation refer this matter either to the Financial Ombudsman Service or County Court where you may be held liable for my costs.

Ahh, this seems to be a new tactic by many of the banks etc. They basically ask you everything except the colour of your grannies underwear?

 

My friend got one for her Clydesdale claim and Alanalana (PPI warrior!) got one too. The letter I sent back says it would NOT be filled in as they were asking for info they should already have. It is clear they are looking for information they should already hold and only repeated why I was claiming it was missold.

 

The letter is on post 12 of my thread - feel free to use bits n bobs if it helps!

I'm having on of those months let alone one of those years - i've now broken my arm so am really bored as I can't drive.

I was thinking about putting in a PPI claim and when it's rejected because of my pre-existing it will be further proof to the lovely Nottingham judges :)

Thanks for the help guys, I wrote a very strongly worded letter, bits taken from Dipply's version. Something that has just come to mind....in the form they've sent, it says what do I remember about any literature I was given etc. I didnt leave the branch with my loan agreement, it was sent to me after I left, with a covering letter. Also on my carbon copies of the agreement, you can make out that someone has wrote the date across the little tick boxes for the PPI etc, but the date is the day after my agreement was signed?

 

Suggestions people? Is it normal for me to sign the agreement, not be given one straight away and then to have it mailed to me?

You should go and ask the board publicly if the FSA and fraud squad have started an investigation, and see what reaction you get!

Hi

 

Have been an avid follower of this thread for a while now, my PPI claim is in with welscum at the moment and I too had one of those forms requesting info about the sale of the PPI and what do I remember and why am I now claiming blah blah blah. I responded the same day, they got it on the 3rd July 09 and I have heard nothing since, aprt from a letter daying oh we are still looking at it and will be in contact soon.(yeah right).

 

My question is if Cattles do go bust, even if they offer me 20p in the pound to settle my debt ( I borrowed £10K secured) I havent got the £2K i need to settle, so where would that leave me? and would my PPI claim be blown out of the water? I hope not hoping to use it to go on a nice holiday!

 

Any advice thoughts would be great Thanks

That's something I've wondering also, not sure where we stand yet!

 

Another question I have is, having paid over 1/3 of my car loan, if I were to get a refund of the PPI, which is front-loaded, I presume my total payments made against the car HP would be slashed, therefore dropping me below the 1/3 point and leaving me open to Welcomes dogs?

I believe the arguement is if someone buys the debt they buy the liabilites as well i.e. PPI claim however I believe there is a counter arguement that says if Welcome go into administration all claims go with it.

 

I have not as yet got a 100% answer - what I do know is Welcome have refused in writing to guarantee successful claims are paid!
