Contracts, Termination, Repudiation and Rescission

Re: Contracts, Termination, Repudiation and Rescission

But to find a way to counter the behaviour of the creditors, and their influence via barristers and money over the courts, we need to discuss both positive and negative sides of the issue and try and work out the right way forward. We won't always agree but discussions should at least continue respectfully, you never know when someone may come up with a gem which is actually the answer to it and you never know who that person may be.

Remember the legal principle of every case must stand or fall on its own merits. The DN argument is only part of what should be a comprehensive defence.

absolutely agree with you.

Re: Contracts, Termination, Repudiation and Rescission

It also has to be remembered that it is the OC that is the "sophisicated, upright pillar of society financial institution" who has access and the pockets for the best legal brains in the country----- NOT US.

Hence we have a fundamental human right and I won't hit you with the Lisbon Treaty here (yet!) to assume that the creditor has got it right. If he has not got it right then he deserves frankly anything that that gets thrown at him.

I am with diddydicky all the way on this. And we should be finding a way to counter all of this argument which is stacking against us. Remember the legal principle of every case must stand or fall on its own merits. The DN argument is only part of what should be a comprehensive defence.

I also was kicked off CAG by the way for the same reasons.

Oh yes, and I have to say personal insults are coming from all sides and I know you have all had your differences on CAG and might have issues with some of the mods over there, but PLEASE try leaving it over there...start fresh here. We're actually quite nice people lol.

Re: Contracts, Termination, Repudiation and Rescission

I agree with you, it is out of order that they issue DNs demanding full sums not yet owing and only giving 5 days to rectify instead of the prescribed 14, it is bad practice and prejudices debtors who may think they have no option but to allow the agreement to default and be terminated and be hauled through courts.

I think the courts, again rightly or wrongly, are looking at the overall picture rather than technical points in isolation. There are cases where it is obvious the debtor would have behaved differently had things been done correctly - for example - toomanycalls thread on here, and also cases where it is a bit of a try on and had the default notice been correct the exact same actions would have been taken by the debtor....Judges do know the difference and rightly or wrongly at lower court levels they are judging on b.o.p. and fairness (hence the de minimus decision in Brandon).

I have said a number of times I think across the forums that I am all for trailblazing and taking a risk to prove a complex technical point, but only if it is with your own money and your own risk - or you can afford to pay for professional advice etc.

If you are a LIP struggling financially a £10k costs order could completely ruin you and as I have also said before I won't advise LIPs who come here for help to go into court on extremely risky and unproven strategies. Big picture stuff really.

As the more confident and more risk taking types take these arguments into court and through to appeal to obtain the case law it helps those of us who can't afford, financially, mentally, physically, the risk of taking such arguments through court when all the signs are against them succeeding.

[QUOTE=peterbard;201057]Fact i am affraid

Read the previos posts on the subject.
I thought yhou had got your head arounfd this.
Anyway a notice of default issued by the credtortr is not the same as a default notice they can be sent on the same notice but do not have to be.
Notices of defaujlt usually give 28 days to remedy as per banking code guidlines.

The, "as never happend" section of section 89 refers to the statute it is of course within the statute.

It does not compell the creditor to reoppen your account re write your satements or refund any default charges on your account, i would wish it were otherwise.

Not good sarting your answer with rubbish is it as you once pointed out to me.

I think you should read Goks post on being humble

well , as two other posters have testified- they consider it is yourself that changes threads from discussion to personal insults- and then you have a happy knack of convining the mods that it is every one else that is out of step rather than yourself-

you succesfully got me thrown off the other site - having yet again started the ball rolling - so i presume that you obviously have some sort of "influence" over there

lets hope your influence is not as great here

i will CONTINUE to argue my corner and unlike yourself have NEVER personally insulted anyone who did not insult me first.

Ps the contents of your post were (IMO) rubbish....which is why i described them as such

it seems you have a penchant for turning other peoples opinions on the content of your postings -- into personal attacks when they are no such thing-

It is quite clear from your posts that you "do not like it" when other people will not cow tow to your opinion and you opnel;y regard them as fools or idiots if they do not see your point of view - as you have said many many times- no one on the forum is legally qualified including yourself- so please just make your points and allow others to make theirs without them having to change their opinion on your say so

rant over

Re: Contracts, Termination, Repudiation and Rescission

how many cases can you quote where a court has allowed a claimant with an invalid DN to stay the case whilst he re issues a valid dn ?

courts get things wrong- especially county courts....that's why there is an appeal system

And is it not still true that a creditor has to issue a valid DN to avail itself of the right to enforce through the court.

Or has that gone away.

In the good old days when all relevant paperwork was to be filed with a claim, this would never have happened as court staf would have picked it up.

As usual the financial industry got an inch and took the whole 10 miles (or is it yards?)

Re: Contracts, Termination, Repudiation and Rescission

yes Ame, but only as diddydicky says before they have attempted to terminate with a demand for the full amount. which as we all know occurs on a regular basis. I will PM you on the very specifics of our cases if you like. As I said previously, a lay person is really being misled by the OC once this defective paperwork comes into existance. he or she is not usuallly a legal expert and in my view is entitled under the Act's tersm to asssume that the agreement is terminated. Their only fate they are led to believe is the courtroom and as has been advocated on another forum debtors prison.

We are not all QCs.

Re: Contracts, Termination, Repudiation and Rescission

But the courts do allow re issuance?

The legal basis is that the debtor has not been paying their debt.

Because it is a consumer credit act regulated debt the creditor and the court must pay heed to the CCA. It is part of the argument and the court goes ahhh, you think they owe you money but its actually under the CCA and you havent done things right so you can't enforce at the moment, go and do it right so the debtor isnt prejudiced, and if the debtor still can't pay we'll have another look at it then.

Taking court action is not enforcement. It is simply a step to enforcement. The claim can be heard but judgment cannot be given until the correct steps have been taken.

and that is where i would (still) argue the point in court that issuance of proceedings IS enforcement- in fact the termination letter is "enforcement" - it says so in the DN which is written as prescribed by parliament and refers to the TN being "further enforcement- which by definition makes the DN itself "enforcement"

why does everyone gets their knickers in a twist over one looney judge trying to say that a TN and issuance does not constitute enforcement - his decision needs to be challenged properly

Re: Contracts, Termination, Repudiation and Rescission

I don't think any one is or has argued'' the CCA1974/2006 to is now only a tool to enable creditors to go back to court over and over again until they get what they want.'' certainly not platoons anyway.

The fact is a bad notice can be made good, any detriment should be redressed, more than once (and we haven't actually seen any cases in court which have been told to do the correct DN come back with another incorrect one anyway) and we suggest the court would strike them out for being numpties and they'd have trouble getting back in. Just as you say ''no senior judge would allow it on several other counts''.

So really I think we're in agreement.

I don't know your case Garlok or what the '' serious criminal allegation'' is so it is difficult to comment on individual cases. I agree that where you have a serious dispute on the debt and been through complaints processes and got nowhere then it is perfectly legitimate to stop paying until the dispute is properly investigated and resolved.

[Garlok]

Re: Contracts, Termination, Repudiation and Rescission

The overriding question then is :- For those platoons arguing the multiple issue until we get a judgemnt we like,

Why do we have default notices, demands for full payment of any alleged outstanding amounts etc.?

The toilet paper you have reduced the CCA1974/2006 to is now only a tool to enable creditors to go back to court over and over again until they get what they want.

Well be assured they canot blight people's lives forever. No senior judge would allow it on several other counts.

As regards enduring debts etc. and cause of action ( because the evil felonious debtor has stopped paying) in our own cases after two long years of battles to stalemate with a legitimate complaint as to conduct of OC we issued a formal letter to the OC demanding that they deal with our complaint in a proper compliant fashion or at noon on a certain date all payemnts would cease forthwith. A compensation claim for a six figure sum would be made which would rise in the same way as their contractual interst and a serious criminal allegation was made against them in writing directed specifically at the Chief executives concerned.

When we sought profesional legal advice we were told that we had acted quite properly in giving them the option to come to the table or payments would cease. In fact it was said that they would have advised exactly the same course of action had they had the instructions at that time. They now do and they have never suggested ever (18 months now) that any payments be made on these disputed accounts. This is even after they have conducted some pretty serious investigations inot our affairs with our fullest co-operation.

Re: Contracts, Termination, Repudiation and Rescission

No, PB, as usual you have not answered the question. If you read what I posted Or if you want to be pedantic, the creditor issues a s87 notice.

Alan

Cant find this quote but i will have to be pedantic i am affraid

THe default notice would be the notice of intention to register the default not the Secion 87 variety.
This guide is for general use it would not refer to just one sattute i found this also

The term ‘default’, when recorded on a credit reference file should be used to refer to a situation when "the lender in a standard business relationship with the individual decides the relationship has broken down"

2.

I am trying to answer your question believe it or not

No I just missed the page with the Judgement on it. I was wading through the insults and personal comments and got bored and skipped some pages.

Always the best plan

Re: Contracts, Termination, Repudiation and Rescission

So... do we have a date for Handing Down yet? Because until the Judgement is handed down, all the discussion is achieving is plaiting fog. Or herding cats.

PT?

Re: Contracts, Termination, Repudiation and Rescission

lol handed down a couple days go Stoney, but it's not got a massive emphasis on the issue, though it does say a bad notice can often be remedied. Harrison v Link (MBNA) Feb 2011 - Legal Beagles Consumer Forum

However, bad notices can often be remedied by the service of good notices and I see no reason why that should not be so in respect of credit agreements.

is pretty much it lol.
