        Hi Alfie,

        Could you post up the letter with personal info removed? You can do this by uploading to www.postimage.org

        I would suggest you also check your credit file too and see if there is any adverse markers on there. So what do you want to do next? If you've sent the letter before action then the next steps logically would be to issue proceedings against them, or you formally complain and then go to the Ombudsman and then potentially through court (the longer route).

        It seems from another thread that Startline are quite ignorant and do as they please, I expect that until some kind of action is taken against them, they're not going to do much and you may be going round in circles.
        If you have a question about the voluntary termination process, please read this guide first, as it should have all the answers you need. Please do not hijack another person's thread as I will not respond to you

              Clearly they haven't given you any information as to what the amount is for. This is the type of tactics used by finance companies to make people pay up even if the money isn't owed. They have the power to affect your credit file and in the end they get the money they need.


              It is up to you as to what you want to do, either fight it and take Startline to court for breach of data protection or pay up although your credit file may still be affected by the default marker.

                    Re: volunarty termination

                    If the balance relates to the difference between what the car sold and what it was worth then yes I think you would win at court.

                    If it relates to damages, then yes I would be confident. They would have to prove the damages occurred whilst in your possession (unless the car was brand new). The way to do that would be to provide condition report at the time the car was taken into your possession and then the condition report at the end to show the difference.

                    If its excess mileage then yes I think you would win at court.

                    I am going to assume the £600 does not relate to the monthly instalments and so the default marker can't be applied. Any damage charges would need to be determined by a court and not simply at the sole discretion of the lender if and when they choose to. This is because they can abuse that position such as the position you are in in order to extract monies from you regardless of whether they are entitled to it or not.

                    But you need to write to them and find out what the £600 is for first, then you can work out what action needs taken.

                          Sorry for the late response, have you contacted them to find out what the £600 is for? it is unreasonable for them not to explain the break down of charges. You can do it one of two ways though, either record the call on your phone as to what was discussed or call them up and then follow up with an email to them on what was discussed, and depending on what is said you will consider taking further action for breach of data protection.

                                Hi Alfie, I can't answer that question for you as the decision to take them to court is entirely up to you, and given its christmas you might wish to have a think about it over this time before committing to anything.

                                It would be helpful if you could upload the letter so I can read it fully and give you my opinion on it (personal info removed). You can go to postimage.org and provide a link from there if that's possible.

                                If indeed it is for unrecoverable damages then there are several lines of argument as to why they are in breach
