    • Thank you for your reply, DX! I was not under the impression that paying it off would remove it from my file. My file is already trashed so it would make very little difference to any credit score. I am not certain if I can claim compensation for a damaged credit score though. Or for them reporting incorrect information for over 10 years? The original debt has been reported since 2013 as an EE debt even though they had sold it in 2014. It appears to be a breach of the Data Protection Act 1998 Section 13 and this all should have come to a head when I paid the £69 in September 2022, or so I thought. The £69 was in addition to the original outstanding balance and not sent to a DCA. Even if I had paid the full balance demanded by the DCA back in 2014 then the £69 would still have been outstanding with EE. If it turns out I have no claim then so be it. Sometimes there's not always a claim if there's blame. The CRA's will not give any reason for not removing it. They simply say it is not their information and refer me to EE. More to the point EE had my updated details since 2022 yet failed to contact me. I have been present on the electoral roll since 2012 so was traceable and I think EE have been negligent in reporting an account as in payment arrangement when in fact it had been sold to a DCA. In my mind what should have happened was the account should have been defaulted before it was closed and sold to the DCA who would then have made a new entry on my credit file with the correct details. However, a further £69 of charges were applied AFTER it was sent to the DCA and it was left open on EE systems. The account was then being reported twice. Once with EE as open with a payment arrangement for the £69 balance which has continued since 2013 and once with the DCA who reported it as defaulted in 2014 and it subsequently dropped off and was written off by the DCA, LOWELL in 2021. I am quite happy for EE to place a closed account on my credit file, marked as satisfied. However, it is clear to me that them reporting an open account with payment arrangement when the balance is £0 and the original debt has been written off is incorrect? Am I wrong?
    • OMG! I Know! .... someone here with a chance to sue Highview for breach of GDPR with a very good chance of winning, I was excited reading it especially after all the work put in by site members and thinking he could hammer them for £££'s and then, the OP disappeared half way through. Although you never know the reason so all I can say is I hope the OP is alive and well regardless. I'd relish the chance to do them for that if they breached my GDPR.

    • 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.

I did my best today to have the stay removed but it wasn't good enough - I LOST!

The Judge wasn't interested, he said he was not qualified to make the decision and it was best to leave it to the high court! He didn't even want to see my court bungle and the solicitor representing Barclays just quoted a lot of legal jargon that i did not understand. The only thing that the Judge was interested in was saying how much of his time had been taken up by Bank Charges hearings! Barclays little weasel scurried off with a smile on his face when the Judge refused to lift the stay - I think it was a case of my time being wasted not he Judges as it was a dead cert of the outcome before i even got in the room - GUTTED sad.gif

What compound interest is that?

The courts will allow you to charge 8%p.a.

the bank owes me £3k thats less than £20 per month.

When I receive my settlement I will pay off the £3k Barclaycard bill I owe that they are able to charge about £50 interest a month on so it will cost me £1 a day in added interest until this is settled.

Im not going down this road again- if took me long enough to work it out for myself!

 

All money they have unlawfully debited is reclaimable.

 

The interest you have been scammed into paying on your unlawful charges was just as unlawfully debited as the charges, and you can claim it back using the same arguments as the charges.

 

Add charges and interest levied thereon, and that is the principal of your claim, compound interest accruing at a daily rate until settlement.

Hi All,

My claim against Barclays has been defended, with the statement below.

Does this mean that it will be stayed?

 

Thanks

 

"Defence

You are unable to take any further action online on this claim.

 

The Defendant disputes the whole amount you have claimed. Your claim cannot proceed online and will be transferred to the appropriate court for continuation. You will receive confirmation to where the claim has been transferred to shortly."

Quick Question....

i had my case stayed on 30th Aug in Kingston along with about 20 others. Is it worth me applying for a lift on the stay? i am suffering financial hardship as a result of the outcome and Barclays have continued to charge me (£430 since initial claim). Should i apply or just keep my £35 which will pay my electric bill??

Barclays hearing 30th Aug 07 - now Barclays pay Feb 09!!

:confused: Hi, my case was won on the 19th of July because of a lack of defense by the bank, the oft went to the high court on the 28th.

 

So my case was won 9 days before that, does anyone know how i stand legally? they tried to apply for a stay for this reason and have changed their minds to an administration error!

 

Im in court tomorrow (13/09/07)

 

Shan. :)

definately, I would go for a lift of stay stating your financial harship and in the alternative request that Barclays stop applying charges untill the test case has been decided as it is putting you in financial hardship and advise the court that you have had a further £430 in charges. I did read somewhere that Barclays were not going to object to stays being lifted but how true that is I do not know.

 

I have also read that that the test case may not now proceed! there was an article on the BBC a couple of days ago and the OFT may announce this shortly. If you find this article in the news section I would take a print out of that article and send it in with your lift of your stay. I have just found it for you.

BBC NEWS | Business | OFT may compromise on bank fees

Let us know how you get on.

Yes £35 without you attending and I believe it is £65 if you want to attend. I would either check on line or phone the courts for guidance. It may be easier and wiser to plead your case in person, because then you can explain to the judge how their charging regime is putting you in fincial hardship.
