Unenforceability & Template Letters III

well i have compiled a HUGE complaint letter to the official compliant dept for tesco.... and am just finishing up a FOS one.
You need to be going to Trading Standards, FOS, FSA & ICO - do all 4 at the same time and copy/paste the data.....regarding them wanting proof of id for cca req, should i send it? considering they have specifically asked for driving licence or passport, something with signature on, makes me more convinced they perhaps (hopefully) dont have the paperwork? I have copied our licences ready... but put big crosses digitally through the signature part, enough to read it, but too much to copy if you catch my drift!
DO NOT send copies of your licence, they are writing to you at your address with statements and other correspondence which means in any court of law, they believe they are dealing wit hthe right person.
Them asking for ID is a clear breach of OFt guidelines and they know this - stick to what we advise and DO NOT send in I.D. As you rightly say, if they are unsure it is you then they should PROVE the debt belongs to you, not the other way around.i know niddy mentioned as the agreemnt was post 04/2007 that cca law cant be used, that it may have to be cpr something... or words to those effects......
LOL, yea it is s.127 that cannot be utilised, i.e. they can take court action, but like everything they STILL need an original before bringing any court action.
I was referring to CPR yes - see here for details of what that means (both versions): #34***goes off ready to ruffle more feathers****
ps... by adjudication authorities, i presume you mean the fos?

Has anyone had any dealings with "Drydens Lawyers"? They have picked up a Creation (Adams) debt. They sent me a illegible CCA 2 weeks ago and I responded with the appropriate letter. I havnt heard anything since. They told me early on that they were going to take me to court to get a CCJ and that I didnt need to bother to turn up as they could do that without me! (I bet they can!! ) As I couldnt see the small print on the CCA I wasnt able to check if it was an application or a CCA. I think that the original lender was Sears though not creation so wonder what you think NID?0

hiya n.i.d and everyone
had a letter back from moorcroft saying they are putting the account on hold until advised otherwise and will not seek to enforce payment.
also the letters says quote: in the meantime,however, we believe that it may be of assistance to all parties if we take this opportunity to ensure that any potential areas of dispute are addressed prior to any possible court action or further investigation. to this end can you provide an indication of the information you will be relying upon, when giving evidence to the court or imformation to the relevant statutory authorities in relation to the alleged subject matter of this account.
please could you provide this information by return as this will ensure that all possible areas of dispute are identified as quickly as possible thereby minimizing potential costs and delays. (i thought the letter you wrote covered my dispute?) anyway i got home from work to a phone call from moorcroft offering me a reduced rate they would knock the debt down to £1700.00 if i took the offer there and then i told him it was not the case of how much they would knock off but how under handed argos have been he put me in hold and i put the phone down the letter today did state they would not persue me so why are they phoning and what should i say if they phone backthanks again in advance i feel like a big can of worms has been opened not sure what to do
Hiya
I love it when they start to panic about legal threats - bless em!
Basically they are responding to your (my) threat of legal action UNLESS they act upon your instruction.
You need to await the outcome of the letter that you sent to Argos as they are ultimately the one's you're threatening, their dogs (Moorcroft) can go swivel on a hot poker as they are really irrelevant in all this - you only copied them in to "be polite"...
Just sit tight, do not accept any deal and most definitely do not reply to their letter.
So long as what you have told me to date is true, we'll get the whole arrears and default wiped - if there was anything missing now is the time to come clean because if Argos come back and say you were 6 payments in arrears you can imagine how silly you'll look and any future threat will be met with laughter, i'd assume.
So sit tight or PM me if you've forgotten anything2010 - year of the troll

Please elaborate - what do you mean they have picked up? Been legally assigned the debt/account or just writing to you on behalf of Adams?2010 - year of the troll

Let them go for a CCJ - when you get the paperwork through for it, let us know and we'll get it struck off for you

Hiya
Great news - this will all get wiped, they cannot just add a default - tut tut - nawty Argos.
See what they say, but really you want them to try and take as much action as possible then defend it (with our help) as this means they cannot do it again (i.e. one debt = one default).....
Just see what Argos do - thanks for clarifying the details, I understand - more to the point, you keep everything which makes life soooo much easier when proving them WRONG!2010 - year of the troll
