Dear Mrs Blah information under the consumer credit Act 1974
please find enclosed all of the relevant information following your request for information under section (77-78) of the consumer credit Act 1974. in the event that we have provided a reconstituted true copy or your credit agreement for the avoidance of doubt this complies with the consumer credit (cancelation Notices and copies of Documents) Regulations 1983 and therefore complies with the obligations set out in section 77-78 of the consumer Credit Act 1974.

we consider that the agreement is now enforceable and therefore we are entitled to obtain a county court judgment against you. However we would prefer that you work with us to set up a repayment plan to settle your outstanding balance.
the status of your account blah blah please make contact with our customer operations department as soon as possible to discuss the options available for this account

well its only taken them 19months 2 weeks approx. to come up with this they also enclosed a statement of account of the payments they received from the now defunk Debt management company (settle my debt) what they sent was 7 double sided pages of what can only be described as generic terms and conditions etc. had the wifes name and address alongside Halifax. However no signature of any kind I think they are just taking a punt here?

Cant thank everyone enough, for all the encouragement and advice received at the outset of this UE Journey. Great stuff

[nightwatch]

all that needs to be said

[ca71]

Do accounts get closed automatically once they are SB? (I'm only asking as this is the first time I've seen this type of notification).

[stuckinarut]

Do accounts get closed automatically once they are SB? (I'm only asking as this is the first time I've seen this type of notification).

Hi ca71. I don't think they are closed automatically. However they closed this one ( happy days) But I don't think this applies across the board. Take care and good luck

[nightwatch]

No not all the time, cabot still write to me asking for payment on one that is SB and UE not paid it since 2011, defaulted 2004,
Hoist have two, the same dates, still contact me.
as very few people write to me now, I don't like to stop them from the excitement they get from thinking I am suddenly going to pay them

Great news- another success for the AAD way.

For the purpose of clarity. we do not accept the contents of this notice,nor do we believe it has any relevance to the account you hold with us.

we are not required to gain permission to carry out a visit to your property for the purpose of debt collection related activities. blah blah blah blah
We welcome all constructive communication in relation to your account and we hope to come to an amicable resolution to this matter without the need to visit your property

[Warwick65]

Amen to that.

This is what this forum has always been about, making sure creditors have their ducks in a row before they issue claims and time and time again we see successes. We use the law to protect ourselves. I have somewhere near 25 debts go SB - of course I did not plan any of that but when circumstances throw shit at you , you need to do do what you can to get out of it.

That's very good news for you!

Cabot finally threw in the towel and closed the account when the debt became 'Prescribed' (i.e. Statute Barred).

What a pity they didn't close the account when they couldn't comply with your CCA Request in 2016. Instead they continued to chase you which included sending a field agent (Resolvecall) to your home which can be very upsetting.

It's all over now though - well done for holding your nerve throughout the process

What a nice thing to say - I see it as a privilege to be able to help forum members with their debts. Sometimes it only takes a phone call to change the mindset of 'victim' to a positive attitude from feeling empowered to fight back, since debt is not a career choice.

No one wakes up and says "Today I'll walk the dog, pick up the dry cleaning, and get into debt". Stuff happens usually through misfortune over which you have no control such as divorce, ill-health, and job loss.

Been there, done that

You take care too

Re bos credit card. Thank you for your request for imformation under section 77-79 of theconsumer credit act 1974. we currently do not have this on file.
However i have requested the relevant details. which will include a copy of the agreement. statement of account. and original and varied terms and conditions from the original lender.
WHAT HAPPENS NEXT.
i acknowledge the 12day time limit to provide this before the account becomes unenforceable .However as we have to request this from the original lender i anticipate that we will be able to provide this within 40 days. in the unlikely event we are unable to obtain this information within those time limits we will write to you again.

YOUR REQUEST FOR INFORMATION UNDER THE CONSUMER CREDIT ACT.

WHAT HAPPENS NEXT
we shall continue to request the information from the original lender to assist you with your request.in the meantime,we would like to inform you that your account shall remain on hold with the customer care department until such time we can comply with your request
