    I sent both to court and hoist by registered post what was required
    witch I have prove of receipt from both.

    when this weeks hearing started I was shocked the judge claimed he had no defence papers for me how ever he did have my statements (strange as both were sent and sign for at same time)

    this was a small claims court the main defence was a failure to issue a CCA request and a case under the misrepresentation act 1967 I also submitted that due to this agreement being from 2006 the courts have no way to enforce the contract because of the said defence and that the agreement was not covered by the 2007act given courts discretion in a case like this.

    it was more than clear that I was made to feel I should not be in there playground or be playing with them however after quoting each law with paragraph of what had been a breeched of the act.

    I could see it was all going over the judges head so I was left with no choose I could see I was losing the case so that's when

    I open the bomb doors ready for the attack The first bomb came down on his desk with a loud shout of illegal notice of assignment both sign and dated by a person who had left the bank eight months before of course he wanted proof so that he can consider it in law this proof again was put right in front of him along with more evidence of this stitch up.

    Now faced with the claimant is not even the legal owner I wait for case to be dismissed however the judge sat there looking at the claimants rep then tuned and asked "what do you expect me to do go and make some phone calls"

    this was definitely the time to deliver the grand slam yes was my reply to his question and well the court is in the mind to do so ask for there FCC licences number delivering the proof they did not have one

    This was game over in law however read on


    I watch as he sat back in his chair to deliver in my favour after what was at least five minuets of silence he then said he would have to put case on a another track.
    this judge realised that by delivering the verdict in my favourer it meant any other case heard from sep 2014 up till now would become unenforceable on two main points the assignment was illegal and so was going to court
    PERG 2.7.8DG
    01/04/20141. (1)
    Taking steps to procure the payment of a debt due under a
    credit agreement or aconsumer hire agreement is a regulated activity

    they were debt collecting
    As for my case and those people that administrate it
    it just remains to say for now
    "Rules are for the guidance of wise men and the obedience of fools"
    and please remember
    when Dick Turpin robbed people he had the decency to wear a mask

    Re: Howard Cohan Cockroaches and Co.

    Must say that I'm inclined to agree with you 100%. Each company is in law a separate legal entity in its own right, so regardless of the fact that they may be associated by common group ownership, for the clear cut purpose of engaging in day to day CCA activities then quite rightly so every entity needs to be regulated / authorised in its own right. This is just so simple logic, and it ceases to amaze me how some DJ's can be waffled and and BS'd in court by these parasites' legal representatives. Its all OK for the FCA to come up with their regulations and state this and state that on their fancy website, but when push comes to shove the pen-pushers at the bottom of the tree within the FCA are quite honestly quite hopeless in their abilities. Same can be said for any corporate structure, it may be all well and good for the educated people at the top writing the rules full of good intentions to run entity within all laws and statutes etc, but it all falls down when the instructions are not correctly passed down the chain of command. Many good businesses have failed through no fault of the owners / shareholders, just poor middle management and "wronguns" on the shop floor.

    Uncontested doesn't mean the debtor doesn't pay up before it goes to a court hearing. (Sorry about the double negative, lol!)

    & while it's true that in a small number of difficult cases, discounts are offered (you mention 50%), they are buying the debt for a lot less than that; do the math, lol!

    Hi MIKE770

    It is estimated that approx 90% of the demands for outstanding debt is uncontested.
    Bearing in mind that the Debt Purchasers are buying them for pence in the pound, it probably isn't too difficult to raise finances
    for the purchase of portfolios.

They have some serious staff costs to recover plus hundreds in court fees and legal costs. Most people dont pay the CCJ anyway even after they lose as they are so far in debt it doesnt matter anyway. With the new regulation with the FCA they must be finding it harder than ever. £400-£500 per CC claim must sting after a while. especially since people can wait a year or 2 and have it set aside and they are back to square one on it.
