Triton Credit Services - CCA is it real /acceptable

Hi folks,

I owe Ulster Bank in the ROI 7000 euro. The debt has been passed to Triton credit card service. I requested a CCA from them. They have sent me back a copy of my application form and a photocopy of a CCA without my signature.

What does a CCA look like? Is what they sent be sufficent to fulfill they're legal obligation.

Also becasue they are a Uk company and I'm in the ROI what jurisdiction do they have?

Thanks

    I am not a lawyer, but I would be astounded if the Consumer Credit Act 1974 applied to the (Peoples?) Republic of Ireland.

    It would therefore be wise to check your own country's laws for similar legislation.

    However, from other information in this forum, it would appear that they do not have a true copy of the CCA. Quelle surprise! :rotfl:

    They dont need to supply an original. A reconstituted copy (copy of the terms at the time) is fine.

    As with Culex above, I wouldnt have thought a UK act of parliament matters in the Republic of Ireland.

    One might also wonder how easily a UK court judgement could be enforced in another jurisdiction.

    Generally fairly easily.
