Re: Ccj lowell portfolio 1 ltd

Thanks so much for replying, I'm so worried people are saying just write and pay a few pounds but I'm not sure they would accept it and may cause me more problems from other debts.

I just don't know what to do now I've done the AOS.

Do i now send the cca letter and cpr letters?

sorry for all the questions, totaly novice!

Re: Ccj lowell portfolio 1 ltd

Morning, get a CCA request to the claimant asap with a £1 postal order and mark it with "statutory fee only" send recorded and keep proof of the posting

Send the Solicitors the CPR request and no fee is required here... It will be a fair old waiting game thereafter ...

When did you last pay anything towards the debt or acknowledge it?

Hi, thanks for reply - I've done CCA with postal order but just filled in lowells name and a cpr and copy of cca to solicitors.

Last time I paid anything was probably 2014.

Re: Ccj lowell portfolio 1 ltd

Hi

Your defence needs to be submitted by Tuesday 29th November, 4 p.m.
A generic defence template can be found here - http://legalbeagles.info/forums/show...t-Court-Claims
You'll need to tweak it to suit your individual circumstances.
If you wish, you could post your draft on this thread for comment before submitting it. (Personal identifiers removed.)
For clarification, what is the alleged debt for? (Credit card, store card/account etc.)

Re: Ccj lowell portfolio 1 ltd

Hi,

Thanks again for helping and replying it is very kind of you.

This is what I have ready to submit but please can you advise if it is correct as I have no idea.

I've left claim no. out and others in bold so you know what I have filled in myself.

NOT SURE AT ALL ABOUT 8, 9, 10, 11 OR 12 (PLEASE ADVISE)

1: I received the claim [Claim Number] from the County Court on 1.11.2016. Northampton.

2: Each and every allegation in the Claimants statement of case is denied unless specifically admitted in this Defence.

3: This claim appears to be for a Credit Card agreement regulated under the Consumer Credit Act 1974.

4: The Claimants statement of case fails to give adequate information to enable me to properly assess my position with regards the claim.

6. The Claimants statement of case states that the account was assigned from Vanquis Bank to Lowell Portfolio on 15.02.2013. The Defendant does not recall receiving notice of this assignment.

7. It is denied that Vanquis Bank served any Default notice on the Defendant pursuant to s87 Consumer Credit Act 1974. The Claimant is required to prove that a compliant Default Notice was served upon the Defendant.

8: On the [Date] I sent a request for inspection of documents mentioned in the claimants statement of case under Civil Procedure Rule 31.14 to [Claimant's Solicitor]. I requested the Claimant provide copies of the [Agreement, Default Notice and Notice of Assignment] .

9. [Claimant's Solicitor] has not sent any of these documents to me.

10. On the 10.11.2016 I sent a formal request for a copy of the original agreement to Lowell Portfolio pursuant to section [77 or 78] of the Consumer Credit Act 1974 along with the statutory £1 fee.

11. The Claimant has failed to comply with [s77 (1) / s 78 (1)] Consumer Credit Act 1974 and by virtue of [s77 (4) / s 78 (6)] Consumer Credit Act 1974 cannot enforce the agreement.

[12: I have asked the Claimant if we may agree to extend the time period allowed for filing of my defence pending receipt of documents (as allowed under CPR 15.5), but they have declined.] or [The Parties agreed to an extension to the time period allowed for filing of my defence under CPR 15.5 to allow the Claimants additional time to produce the relevant documentation to evidence their claim, however they have failed to do so.]

13. Under Civil Procedure Rule 16.5 (4) Where the claim includes a money claim, a defendant shall be taken to require that any allegation relating to the amount of money claimed be proved unless he expressly admits the allegation. Therefore It is expected that the Claimant be required to prove the allegation that the money is owed as claimed.

14. I request the court orders the Claimants to provide the necessary documentation in order for me to fully plead my case else the Claim should stand struck out.

15. In the event that the relevant documents are received from the Claimants I will then be in a position to amend my defence, and would ask that the Claimants bear the costs of the amendment.

16. It is denied that the Claimant is entitled to the relief as claimed or at all.

Statement of Truth

The Defendant believes that the facts stated in this Defence are true.

Signed …………………………………………

Dated .................................................. ....

Re: Ccj lowell portfolio 1 ltd

Hi

#8 - all of these are mentioned in the PoC, so if they were all in your CPR request, that's fine..

Are BWL still the acting solicitors? (#s 8 & 9)

If this for a credit card, s78 CCA is applicable; scrub references to s77 (#s 10 & 11)

#12 - Did you use the forum template for your CPR request?
If so, has the Claimant/solicitors agreed to the 28 day extension?

Please confirm that you have acknowledged the court claim (per [MENTION=69750]Stu[/MENTION]'s post #2).
Also, what was the claim issue date? (On the front of the court claim form).
