Re: Lowells and Statutory Demand threats

You have my full permission to use any details from my encounter with Lowells/BW legal. Just let me know what you need and its yours - anything to help put these lowlifes in their place and shut their behaviour down

Re: Lowells and Statutory Demand threats

Okay. I have set up a dedicated thread for the FOIA request and possible enforcement action against Lowells on the following link:

http://www.legalbeagles.info/forums/showthread.php?40026-Lowells-Financial-Freedom-of-Information-Act-Request-Enforcement-Action&p=331239#post331239

Please post your questions for the OFT and experience on that thread. I will leave it open until 30 April 2013 then collate the questions and experiences before submission to the OFT.

Re: Lowells and Statutory Demand threats

Can I just say I despise Lowells, aka Red Debt aka Hampton Illegal aka The Leeds Losers aka Clownells aka Crimolowells

I wish them nothing but ill.

I spoke to PT earlier today he is going to send me the email address of the person that is in charge of making decisions at the OFT.

Okay, everyone. I've posted up some questions to put to the OFT earlier in this thread. Please post up questions you feel should be put to the OFT in the FOIA request. I will start a thread specifically for Lowells' victims to post details of their experiences. Any that are serious and, as yet, unresolved, may be a case of referring them to OFT Credit Fitness Team and Trading Standards.

Thank you, Tuttsi and PT. That email address will be very useful.

I was not aware that they employed a specialist.

Re: Lowells and Statutory Demand threats

I don't think it's an SRA issue myself. It's the OFT who wrote the debt collection guidelines and issue CCA licences.

Correct me if I am wrong, Cel, but if a solicitor is shown or found to be assisting a client to commit a breach of the law or misleading a court, surely is that not professional misconduct?

[Celestine]

Re: Lowells and Statutory Demand threats

Its all about degrees of misconduct. There are many things such as ignoring emails, not responding to Court orders promptly; which wouldn't get the case struck out even, so I doubt the SRA would be much interested.

You would really need to demonstrate a deliberate campaign (hard) or catch them diddling the client accounts to get much progress.

Hi Bluebottle
I tried a FOI request to OFT but was refused on the grounds that it may prejudice the legitimate business interests of the company. Legitimate and Lowell in the same sentence? How I laughed.

Hi Bluebottle
I tried a FOI request to the OFT but was refused on the grounds that it may prejudice the legitimate business interests of Lowell. How I laughed to see Lowell and legitimate in the same sentence. I got the impression that the ICO and the OFT know what's going on but are reluctant to take action for some reason. I know for a fact that West Yorkshire Trading Standards and the CSA are covering for Lowell and have kept the emails between both alleged regulators as proof in case the Judge wanted to see them.

Thanks for the warning. You have possibly saved me a lot of typing. However, as the saying goes, there is more than one way of skinning a cat. I'm going to send you a PM.

Re: Lowells and Statutory Demand threats

Still worth pursuing as you intended Bluebottle, the OFT arent consistent and attitudes change. But also there's Which (the Consumer Association) and the press!
