        This is what I find strange, they sold TML over here and it later went in to liquidation but they have TML registered in Ireland and in their accounts it states they trade in the UK and TML is a trading name on their OFT license.

          The Mortgage Lender and TML KMC sold TML to the Mortgage Lender. Both companies on Companies House are dissolved.

          Kensington sells loss making TML as profits jump 17%

          30 January 2007


          Robyn Hall
          Kensington posted profits of 17% today and announced it was selling its loss making direct-to-consumer arm The Mortgage Lender for an undisclosed sum.
          Consumer appetite for direct business has dwindled since KMC first bought the business in 2002 while the cost of advertising has rocketed.
          As a result mortgage originations from TML for 2006 reduced to 189m from 322m in 2005 - representing less than 5% of total completions for the group.





          John Maltby, Kensington Group chief executive, says: Over the past 18 months the contribution of TML to the Kensington Group has been reducing and in 2006 it generated less than 5% of our new business.
          As a result, following a strategic review, we decided to sell the business and TML will become a direct-to-consumer broker. We wish the TML team well, they have been important to the success of Kensington and we look forward to working with them in the future.

          Kensington bought TML in 2002, as a direct to consumer distributor of specialist mortgages, using high profile TV and press advertising to generate enquiries for residential mortgages.
          But as the structure of the mortgage broking market in the UK changed, TMLs cost-base was reduced significantly over 2005 and 2006.
          A recent strategic review of the requirements and priorities for Kensington led to a decision to focus on its core business priorities in the UK and Europe.
          Maltby adds: We expect the UK specialist mortgage market to remain competitive during 2007 and that Kensington will see lower levels of profit growth in 2007 when compared to the growth seen in 2006.
          Kensington enters 2007 as a lower-cost group with improved credit performance and a new business offer pipeline at the end of the financial year that, at over 500m, was over 20% higher than 12 months before.
          Kensington will pay a final dividend of 16p, making a total of 24p for the year and representing an increase of 12% compared to 2005.

            I don't think this is the same company, this one was founded in 2005, nothing to do with Kensington.

                  Had letters from Natwest re the computer problems they say it may take until the end of August to sort out any compensation and that we would get debit interest refund of £2.03!

                  The downside being they appear to have already done this on the same day as the charge for interest on arranged overdraft went out!:tinysmile_hmm_t2:

                    History is being written in all the above posts, we will look back on these as very dark days. However, thanks to a long overdue wake up call to all and sundry that our country has been allowed to be devestated due to the greed of a few, this era is coming to an end.

                    Sorry if that's a bit of a speech but our result in court today was 'swift' and harsh to those that chose to pick on hardworking and law-abiding people.

                    Yesterday I would have said banks will not have to change their culture; today I have done a complete u-turn on that, their casino-culture has just become so yesterday. I really think the people have cracked it, well done to all and take a bow LB.

                    Thank you from the bottom of my heart for the strength I found on here.

                            Right digging done !
                            Kensington rates varied throughout from 2004 when we moved here fro 6,900% to 10.55% longest period was from March 2010 t0 Jan 2011 when it was 6.5000% > Went up again in April to 6.75% payments have been from a high of £962,55 to a "low" of £680 during this time we had payment arrangements in place to clear arrears and this has now been achieved.
                            Found another leaflet that mentions Libor and Money Partners we had this yearly until 2005.
                            I will try again as this did not seem to work!

                                The claimant had lost his claim against the bank, but resisted the amount of costs claimed.
                                Held: The trial had been of a simple factual dispute, and the bank had failed adequately to disclose electronically held material in its possession. The bank had also, and despite having inhouse counsel, employed disproportionately expensive lawyers. The bank should receive only 25% of its costs claim. The court suggested that the bank’s difficulty might have been avoided by active costs management.As to documents held electronically, while there was no general obligation to retain such material, such an obligation did arise once proceedings were commenced.
                                Court: Merc
                                Date: 08-Oct-2009
                                Judges: Judge Simon Brown, QC

                                1. 85 It would, however, have been much more preferable if Costs Management had been applied during Case Management and at the Case Management Conference as per the pilot scheme in this court as part of the Review of Costs in Civil Proceedings by Lord Justice Jackson. This would have controlled the costs before they were actually spent. The Defendant was facing a litigant in person for much of this action and that places a very onerous burden on the opposition to fairly and diligently prepare the case for trial. Not many litigants in person appreciate that when they are spending nothing on legal services themselves but only vicariously so riding everything on the result vis a vis costs as well as the outcome of the action.
                                2. 86 Accordingly, in my judgment, the fair award of costs is that the unsuccessful Claimant should pay the successful Defendant 25% of its Schedule of Costs (including VAT) amounting to £38,517.81 – a sum that is proportionate and fair
