Re: 16 years!
Would have been sorted in weeks if the poor sod found AAD
When Gold isn't enough, there is SA Gold! New to the forum and find the UE route a bit scary? Take a look at my diary here and judge for yourself. I am now saving the money each month that was making little difference to the balance and not a bit of difference to my credit file as a result of finding AAD.

Re: 16 years!
Indeed. As soon as i saw the price of the laptop (and the fact a modem was the sole choice of purchase by the sound of it) it made me realise how long it had been going on!Originally posted by pompeyfaith View PostWhen Gold isn't enough, there is SA Gold!

Re: 16 years!
Well, see when you look into this although it does look like the claimant has a case, the facts must surely be properly studied by the lay-reader because whilst I agree that in cases where a product is returned, thus rendering the sale contract void, so too should the credit that came with the goods that doesn't mean I am entirely in agreement with the claimant in this case.
However that said, even in 1998 laptops DID clearly state on the box, and on literature within most stores, the spec. If nothing was ever mentioned about a modem then surely the claimant should shoulder some of the burden and also I'm not sure I agree that one adverse CRA entry would warrant such a large claim for damages (I'm led to believe it's over £100k)... Sorry, we've seen cases lose when dealing with similar issues before so until judgment is handed down, I'll reserve my opinion.
But if he wins it should surely be on the cancellation of contract point, not the damages for one default entry - when the claimant himself never raised the entry at the time, with the bank. Had he done so then maybe we'd not be in the Supreme Court today and maybe he'd have his mortgage.
Didn't we see someone else lose on similar grounds, the LB owners sister tried damages for an erroneous CRA entry - and lost. Shitty that the CRA's and the creditor can dictate our lives like that, but they can and we just have to accept it unless cases like thIs win long before any Supreme Court has it's say.
Good Luck is all I will say, I hope he kicks arse I really do
