HSBC
Date commenced - Approx 2005 (actually 2002)
29.9.19 Finally sent CCA request, using one of the returned postal orders :-)
11.10.19 Received a hand-addressed letter today, presumably from HSBC, containing my letter requesting a CCA and the postal order. No covering letter, no compliments slip, nothing else at all. Seemed a bit rude, tbh. I'm thinking 'I've asked, you haven't supplied the necessaries, no further action from me required'. Does anyone disagree? Oh, and I'm glad I used recorded delivery :-)
so sold whilst in dispute! IE the outstanding CCA Request
Well Overdales solicitors
"..
In March I received the results of that request, a package purportedly containing the terms and conditions, a statement of account and a default notice. It also stated that 'unfortunately we have been unable to obtain a copy of the credit agreement' and that the matter has been referred back to their client.
.."
April Lowell, headed 'Responding to your query'.
Did anybody suggest sending the Sold Whilst in Dispute AAD stock letter?
Requesting from Overdales wouldn't have included £1 because LBA
BUT it is very IMPORTANT because its UE whilst your 29th Sept 2019 CCA s.78 plus £1 is outstanding!

It is somewhat hard to unpick the detail and of course the devil is in the detail.
Can I ask
When you sent the CCA request , was it to HSBC?
Was the postal order blank or made payable to someone?
The problem is joining the dots to build your case that you sent a lawful S78 request and they ignored it.
Moving on to more recent activity....
When you asked for the usual documents from Overdales, did you sent the postal order- it is not clear, so do not want to jump to assumptions.
Depending on what the answers are to the above might influence the next course of action BUT it does seem as if they do not have the original agreement and as it is 2002 it will have to have been signed (as opposed to digitally signed).
Can you remember 22 years ago? If you can why? Did you sign anything? It might be that you are a detailed record keeper and have the application form somewhere but no agreement- I have no idea.
Lets hope Lowell decide that they are onto a loser

And finally, the above few interactions are exactly why I joined and stayed a member of this site, hopefully we’re on a return to the good old days.

Those older CCA contracts have all sorts of issues especially over terms.
But you can either sit and wait OR send HSBC a DSAR because this covers the Overdales period doesn't it!
Find out what HSBC have or have not got on record is always wise at this stage.
Remember letter was sent recorded delivery and the request plus postal order was sent back the presumption is from the person address to!
Don't over think this!
Its the Claimant that has to prove their Case.
I would send a DSAR to HSBC (recorded delivery no need for £1)

I do think that a DSAR to HSBC might be useful
Indeed the claimant has to prove their case on the balance of probabilities

It was indeed to HSBC.
It was blank - I was able to use a postal order returned from an earlier different request
I still have a copy of the request and a proof of delivery (signed for by ‘Wayne’, apparently). It’s just that their only response was to return it without comment.
I didn’t - it was a response to an LBA so I didn’t think it necessary.
I recall arranging for the card over the phone because I remember the part of the conversation where I was told I qualified for a gold one; I presume that I was subsequently sent the paperwork to sign but can’t be sure - sadly my records are not to that standard :-)
That’s what I’m hoping for.

It is possible that sending a DSAR will bring up details of the DN as well as possibly the agreement or at least details of how you applied for it.
I hope they let it drop but if not, talking to a solicitor might be a good idea.

The thinking is on receipt of a LBC to take up offer of an initial free interview with JCS before requesting various documents
the thinking is not to encourage the DCA or their Solictors to get their ducks in a row!
IRON MOUNTAIN and HSBC also comes to mind!
This is behind a good diary and the timing of a DSAR after this response from Overdales.
But there is More its in your Diary Account owner - Lowell Portfolio I Ltd ('Lowell')

Thanks for all the comments.
I have the results of a GDPR request to HSBC from last year when Lowell came on the scene, and there is a default notice but no CCA. I'm aware that this won't include any correspondence with Overdales but I'm minded to leave things as they are for the moment, I can always revisit that should things escalate.
And I have discussed this with JCS who suggested that I did not reply to the LBA; on this occasion I chose a different path and asked for documentation, resulting in the Overdales / HSBC conversation. Hopefully that will put things to bed, but we'll see. For the moment Lowell seem to have reverted to the standard requests that I get in touch.

Please do keep us in the loop if they write back to you. I have everything crossed for you.

Me too, actually. All things considered I think I'm in as good a place as I can hope for at the moment, I'm just hoping for a quiet run to SB status next April but I think that might be a touch optimistic .
I think some debt purchasers try to rattle people into starting to pay and probably 9 times out of 10 it works- or even 99 times out of 100. I know I had default CCJ's back in the 1990's because I just did not know what to do and it was really before the internet was widespread. Dial up which messed up your phone line.
Very good luck to you

Overdales Legal Limited is a specialist law firm, regulated by both the Solicitors Regulation Authority and the Financial Conduct Authority, providing debt recovery and litigation services to a number of Clients across the UK.
In March I received the results of that request, a package purportedly containing the terms and conditions, a statement of account and a default notice. It also stated that 'unfortunately we have been unable to obtain a copy of the credit agreement' and that the matter has been referred back to their client.
Silence is golden!!
