Re: STATUTE BARED???? Mobile phone contract from May 2010 .
Good evening,
This is what I sent to CCJ. English is not my first language and that is all I could think of. I've seen all the replies after "Please help" just now. Definitely today is not my day ! (((
Claim number: xxxxxxxxxxxx
Claimant: LOWELL PORTFOLIO I LTD, RE: LOWELL FINANCIAL LIMITED
Defendant: xxxx xxxxxxxxx
1. The Defendant has not acknowledged or served the debt in any way in the last six (6) years.
2. The Defendant has not paid any part of this debt in the last six (6) years.
3 . Accordingly, the Defendant seeks the Claimants claim to be dismissed by the court as the debt is a statute-barred under the Section 5 of the
Statute of Limitations Act 1980 that says “an action founded on simple contract shall not be brought after the expiration of six years from the date on which the cause of action accrued.”
Statement of Truth
I,xxxxx xxxxxxxxxx, the Defendant, believe that the facts stated in this Defence are true.
Signed xxxxx xxxxxxx,
Date: 17/10/2016
Unfortunately, I think I sent my defence too late. At 15:41 I sent the email and have not received any confirmation after.
I called to ask if they received my email and apparently they can not check until tomorrow morning. I sent the same email again to the same email address and this time, I received confirmation, unfortunately at 16:08. Eight minutes late!
It seems that all I can do now is wait until tomorrow morning. If the claimant didn't ask for default judgment in this 8 minutes gap my defence will be acknowledged, if yes then I lost the case!
I will update tomorrow morning
