    • Hello CAG Team, I'm adding the contents of the claim to this thread, but wanted to open the thread with an urgent question: Do I have to supply a WS for a claim with a court date that states " at the hearing the court will consider allocation and, time permitting, give an early neutral evaluation of the case" ? letter is an N24 General Form of Judgement or Order, if so, then I've messed up again. Court date 25 May 2024 The letter from court does not state (like the other claims I have) that I must provide WS within 28 days.. BUT I have recently received a WS from Link for it! making me think I do need to!??
    • Massive issues from Scottish Power I wonder if someone could advise next steps. Tennant moved out I changed the electric into my name I was out the country at the time so I hadn't been to the flat. During sign up process they tried to hijack my gas supply as well which I made it clear I didn't want duel fuel from them but they still went ahead with it. Phoned them up again. a few days later telling them to make sure they stopped it but they said too late ? had to get my current supplier to cancel it. Paid £50 online to ensure there was money covering standing charges etc eventually got to the flat no power. Phoned Scottish Power 40 minutes to get through they state I have a pay as you go meter and that they had set me up on a credit account so they need to send an engineer out which they will pass my details onto. Phone called from engineer asking questions , found out the float is vacant so not an emergency so I have to speak to Scottish Power again. Spoke with the original person from Scottish Power who admitted a mistake (I had told her it was vacant) and now states that it will take 4 weeks to get an appointment but if I want to raise a complaint they will contact me in 48 hours and it will be looked at quicker. Raised a complaint , complaints emailed me within 24 hours to say it will take 7 days till he speaks with me. All I want is power in the property would I be better switching over to EON who supply the gas surely they could sort it out quicker? One thing is for sure I will never bother with Scottish Power ever again.    
    • Hi. Please don't follow McD's advice to contact Met to appeal. They won't listen and you could end up giving them helpful information. HB

    • 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....I requested a copy of my CCA and default letter that was placed on my credit file this was sent on the 11th June and I got a reply on the 18th June stating that they would respond by the 10th July. I then got another letter on the 9th July telling me that they were stilling looking into my complaint and would respond by the 7th Aug but I'm still waiting on a reply.

 

What are the time scales for such requests ?

I had a similar run of letters with these "people", the next one I had was one from CapQuest say that they had bough the debt !!!!!

 

WTH, oh dear "selling" a disputed debt, hmmm now that's lawful........ NOT !!!

 

After 12 WORKING days the "debt" is in default and stays that way until the request is complied with.

If a FURTHER month passes then the crditor has commited a summary criminal offence and the matter should be refered to Trading Standards for action.

 

So for you we're looking at 29th June and 29th July.

 

Serious trouble now as they are well and truely into criminal default.

Be VERY careful whose advice you listen too

Hi....I don't owe any mony to them all I want is the default removed......

 

I think it is the Information Commissioners Office who you need to report them to, they deal with Data Protection issues and information sharing

 

You could write to Monument advising that you will report them under s10 of the CCA 1974

 

I had a similar issue with WFS - i queried it with Equifax, after 2 weeks they just removed it as WFS didn't respond - I mean they removed the 'whole entry'

 

So might be worth querying it with Equifax

Link to my thread where I was advised about s10

  • NatWest - Settled in full 8 weeks after LBA (without interest)
  • Capital One - LBA 27th July - Offered & paid £28 - Rejected - settled
  • Monument - LBA 18th July - Offer 19th July - Refused - settled

  • WFS - 8 Point Complaint - awaiting response - Failed CCA Request - awaiting response - Awaiting S.A.R - (Subject Access Request) info

Monument sent my info even tho i forgot to send payment!!! Thanx Monumnet

Hey Saint,

 

I had a default and other information removed from my credit file, via the credit reference agency's - Equifax - Experian & Call Credit

 

the first 2 are a must, i wouldn't worry to much about the 3rd, they are a small company that not many use - or so i have found.

 

You will need to have a copy of your credit file from Equifax & Experian to make the process easier.

 

Equifax - you can contact them via email - advise that information is incorrect on your credit file, you will need to list the info as it appears on the credit file - they have a form you can complete, it can be frustrating, but hang in there, the good thing about Equifax is, if the company doesn't respond within so many days, they remove the information until such a time as the company does respond. (They removed WFS info, and it hasn't reappeared as yet).

 

Experian are more awkward - they will not change anything unless instructed to do so by the ICO or the company who gave them the info. They do allow you to call them and discuss the issues, I had a very helpful person, they actually rang WFS and got them to agree the information change after I emailed copies of letters across to Experian.

 

I managed to get the WFS default removed - shouldn't have been there as they had settled the debt, as well as poor payment history for the time the debt was in dispute, they had put 4 missed payments then a default, now back to settled in Dec with 1 missed payment last Oct - so it can be done, BUT, it was not easy, I had to keep on at WFS and had to speak to Experian at least 5 or 6 times or not more!!!

 

I also had a default removed from 3G - i just asked them for paperwork to support the default, hey presto, removed!!

 

I have not had the experience of Call Credit as they did not hold that much info about, well, not detrimental anyway.

 

I hope that's been of some help

Hiya I did write to both credit agencies but Monument told them that the information was correct.....end of story. My argument is that they can't or won't provide me with a copy of the alleged default and my CCA. They have clearly have commited an offence under the CCA in which they must provide a copy of my CCA within 40 days is this correct or not ?

I believe that is correct - I am also led to believe that Trading Standards and the FOS are who you should report the 40 day breach too - but you will need proof that you posted it and they signed for it, as well as the letter you sent requesting your CCA.

 

There is a thread on this site with all the time limitations on for a cca request.

 

Did they ever acknowledge your CCA request?

 

I would query it again with CRA's (credit reference agencies) advising that they have not sent the paperwork to you, explain in as much detail as to why the information is incorrect, you can ask for a statement to be put upon your file to explain anything you do not agree with, again there is a thread on this site about defaults and the way they should be handled properly, if they have not followed this procedure, then the default shouldn't stand.

 

One thing to take into consideration - none of these companies and or organisations work fast, I had to battle for over 3 months, almost contacting them daily to remind them I was there and not going away until they sorted it.
