The legal principles
established in the leading case law Rankines v Others were brought into play
when Justice Flaux confirmed the current legal position and understanding is
that:
1. Claims for unenforceability can not be made by a consumer (last
minute changes to the claim were made, removing the request for a
declaration of unenforceability);
2. Only a court judgment is considered as enforcement (all other activity
is not);
3. Credit Reference Agencies can only mark credit files on live
agreements, before termination.

CCK
is now calling for a public inquiry into the whole Claims Management industry as
there has been a blatant failure from the outset. Supposedly authorised
companies have been flaunting regulations which were put in place to protect
consumers but have led to an organised scandal and mismanagement of a highly
misunderstood area of law.
