Hello,I send off for my sar for my bank loan.The first letter I got back said signature not the same,so went into bank with driving licence.They stamped it and they sent it off.Rang them told them 40 days is running out,was told no another 19 days.phoned information commisioner and was told when they stamped it and send it was start of 40 days.so rang back was told ok, it is in deep storage please give more time.When it arrived it says unfortunately on this occasion I am unable to locate the loan agreements for you.then says its out of scope of the sar act.therefore I would not be entitled to them and the rest will be sent out under separate cover.this is after 40 days has passed.This doesnt sound right to me any thoughts

Hi there
Did they also return the payment?
How long ago was it when you taken out the finance, and what year settled (paid off), if the last 6 years, they should hold some details.
Hopefully someone will post with some good advice on this one for you, but in your case give the ICO another call and let them know about this if you not done so yet. (About the letter you received back).
Good luck with this.The one and only "Dizzy Di"

thanks.the loan was taken out 2years ago and still has 2years to go on it.the payment has not been returned .the loan was first taken out with ppi on it,this was cancelled about a year ago. if they cannot find the loan agreement then the loan is unforceable,is this true0

No its not true.f they cannot find the loan agreement then the loan is unforceable,is this true
The courts ruled on 6 cases on this in December and it was decided by the courts that they do not need to supply the original agreement. They can recreate one using the personal details they hold on you and the terms of the loan.
These rulings basically blew the unenforceable loan theory out of the water. Its possibly linked to why you are seeing an increasing number of claims companies starting to fail as they dont have the money to return to [STRIKE]mugs [/STRIKE] customers that fell for their claims.I am an Independent Financial Adviser (IFA). The comments I make are just my opinion and are for discussion purposes only. They are not financial advice and you should not treat them as such. If you feel an area discussed may be relevant to you, then please seek advice from an Independent Financial Adviser local to you.0 -

Hi there
If they do not return the payment, which they should have done because they have not supplied you with anything in relation to your account, I would write to request they pay this back to you right away, again contact the ICO if any problems here.
I am not sure in issues regarding unenforceable loans etc, the best place to post on this actual matter would be on the actual loan thread itself here:
