    OK Cabot's killing off it's own case here, now it's clear the account was not yours.

    Ken Stannard is CEO Cabot UK and Europe get a Formal Complaint off
    to him by signed for post.
    Online accounts still have an agreement and if a regulated agreement
    is mentioned in the particulars of claim then is must be supplied when
    a CCA request is made.
    A CCA request is not to do with particulars of claim, it can be sent at any time as long as judgment has not been obtained and there's an outstanding balance. Yes, online accounts still have an agreement but it would be just a computer printout of the terms and it would be very difficult to argue those were not the terms you agreed to at the time, not unless you'd printed them out and kept a copy, but how many people do that?

    However, in this case it doesn't matter what terms were there, what matters is that the account does not belong to the defendant in the first place.

    Neither of these would apply to your case. There is no legal aid for consumer credit cases except for repossession, orders for sale and when a creditor wants to make you bankrupt. No win no fee agreements are usually only done when the claim is above £10k (for consumer credit cases) because in that case, their costs are recovered from the other side (if you win). In this case you are applying for a low value judgment to be set aside and there would be no costs awarded against Cabot, even if successful.

    Have you prepared a witness statement?

        Are you referring to your witness statement?

        If so this is your account as to what has happened, how the alleged debt arose, what you have done, i.e request for document, did the claimant respond what did the claim provide or failed to provide.

        Take a look through some other threads so you have examples of content and format.

          You will find an example witness statement here: http://docs.google.com/viewerng/view...sstatement.pdf
          You will need to edit it to suit your circumstances but you can get an idea of the kind of thing you need to say and the way it should be formatted. Note that it should end with a Statement of Truth.

          You will, of course, have to mention the account not being yours and include the letters you have as exhibits. :thumb:

                        Hi Sharron,

                        I would be inclined to make a Formal Complaint to JD Williams, it must have been JD which " allegedly" fabricated records Cabot I would not be able to do this, all the data apart from Cabot's update when it acquired the debt comes from them originally.

                        My feeling would be to find out the name of the CEO/MD and address the complaint to that person.
                        Provide copies of docs to support your case.

                        A formal complaint allows for 56 days to fully investigate and respond, depending on the response you can settle or take this further.
