Looking back through your thread I can't see whether this Lloyds TSB debt was originally a credit card or a loan or maybe a combination of both plus an overdraft etc. So can you fill me in (apologies if you've already posted that somewhere).

PRA have sent you a reconstituted credit agreement which you've been told is enforceable but there are more reasons for a debt to be unenforceable other than the credit agreement.

How did you apply for this account (online, in the branch etc)?

Was there PPI involved?

When (what year) was it assigned to PRA and was it assigned direct to them or was it assigned to another debt purchaser first such as Aktiv Kapital?

Hi Di

Maybe PRA are not 100% sure either

I asked because it's not uncommon for creditors to amalgamate a credit card/loan/overdraft before they assign the overall debt to a third party which can cause the debt purchaser legal problems.

Hi Di,

Is this the point where I interject and say......Although it is true that PRA can be rather robust with litigation........they also regularly fall down through not being able to get their ducks in a row quite correctly

As in the case of PRA Group (UK) Limited v Diana Mayhew (me )

‘“RECONSTITUTED AGREEMENT” – IRREDEEMABLY UNENFORCEABLE”
“UNREDACTED DEEDS OF ASSIGNMENT – NO ASSIGMENT PROVED”


So, held Recorder Bellamy in PRA Group (UK) Limited v Mayhew at Central London County Court on 22nd March 2017, at the end of a 3 day multi track trial, when dismissing PRA’s claim against our client.


Stale debts sued for on the back of 2 ‘reconstituted’ MBNA credit card agreements (May 1999 and October 2000) were held irredeemably unenforceable under CCA 1974. The evidence of an honest witness was preferred to that of so called “reconstituted agreements”.


After 3 days of close forensic examination of, and legal argument about, evidence and documents from both PRA and MBNA stating that our client’s specific debt had been assigned, the court held that no assignment had been proved.


Efforts, over many months, in earlier cases to force PRA into disclosure of un-redacted deeds and deep and sustained forensic challenge to the provenance of documents needed to prove regulatory compliance, finally drew back the veil. The reality behind bulk debt purchasing was revealed.


This decision shows that just saying an agreement is enforceable and producing a “reconstituted” copy does not prove that it is enforceable. Just saying an agreement has been assigned and producing a notice saying it has been assigned does not prove legal assignment.


Debt purchasers need to provide proof. If that means the pitifully few pence in the pound they pay for stale debts will increase because banks will now have to start keeping original evidence complying with regulatory consumer protection measures, it is hard to imagine many tears being shed, outside the City of London.
