Hi,
Because they can't provide you with a copy of the T's & C's applicable, they can't enforce the agreement in court, the reconstituted agreement will suffice if your account was opened after April 2007, If opened prior to this date, it will not suffice.
Of course they are going to want there money back, and they can ask you to pay, it's just that they can't now force you to do anything, as the option of court action has been removed from the equation.I’m a Forum Ambassador and I support the Forum Team on the Debt free wannabe, Credit file and ratings, and Bankruptcy and living with it boards.

Thanks again Sourcrates - agreement was way before 2007 so that's great news.0

Even if s77-79 has been complied with, that gives you an argument under s127(3) of the Act - covered here

However they say they ' have not currently complied with section 78 of the act' so any action can be stayed on that basis.
I'd say this one's dead.
Good luck with the rest!0
