Thanks Diana Mayhew

@Di - I have to make a correction in my earlier post. I actually believe the original loan was with Lombard Direct and they sold the loan to Idem about 10 years ago.

In which case you should send a Subject Access Request to Lombard.

And possibly another Subject Access Request to Idem Securities.

Hello all,

nightwatch - thank you for the welcome! Neither Hoist nor Robinson have an email address or phone number for me - just a forwarding address I used with Idem to manage communications so everything has to be in writing or they won't be able to communicate with me. I learned this after my first phone call with Idem, many moons ago, and realised that some of their customer service clerks had no interest in being helpful or honest. I told them at that point that I would no longer communicate with them by phone and expected all our exchanges to be written.

I did send the £1 with the request so I guess I'll have to wait for them to spring to life!

@Di - I have to make a correction in my earlier post. I actually believe the original loan was with Lombard Direct and they sold the loan to Idem about 10 years ago. I never actually defaulted on the loan. I remember (post separation from long term partner) making a request for the loan payments to be temporarily reduced to allow me time to sell my house and clear the debt etc. As soon as I made the request I received a letter warning that payments had to be kept up at the originally agreed level or they would have to take action on my account. I distinctly remember telling them I simply couldn't, at the original level, but could at a reduced level for a few months. It wasn't long before I received a letter assigning the debt to Idem (No default at that point).

It was Idem that filed the original default but this no longer shows on my account. Previously it had simply shown on my credit file as 6 months in arrears with payment plan agreed. I have a copy of a letter from Idem stating that they don't have the original agreement, just a reconstituted copy (dated 2012), so I know Hoist cannot have an original copy. Additionally the copy of the reconstituted loan they sent me belonged to someone else entirely. I think at the time I was so stressed after the separation, selling my house, moving to a new area, and moving my children from their schools that I just caved and agreed to a payment plan!

Currently the only default on my credit file is from Hoist and this is dated to December 2019. There is no history when I search previous years. I didn't receive a letter or any notice just the appearance of the default on my file.

The letter I posted was addressed to;


Hoist Finance Holdings 3 Limited
Robinson Way Limited
Quays Reach
Carolina Way
Salford
M50 2ZY

apols for dissertation!

Thanks

Hello

The account should have been defaulted by Capital One before it was terminated and assigned to Idem. If that didn't happen then it could become a problem for any subsequent debt owner if they issue legal proceedings.

Do you know the date of that assignment (Capital One to Idem) and do you recall being served with a Default Notice prior to that date?

You say "Idem default no longer showing" so do you know the default date Idem were reporting to the Credit Reference Agencies? That default date will remain the reason the account will stay on your CRA file until six years later. So if the original default was before December 2013 then no one should be reporting the account to the CRA.

If the original default was after December 2013 then the accurate date must be reported by Hoist (not a new one).


Niddy explains this here >

Regards the duplicate, it may show twice but it must continue. Let me use an example to help explain.

let's say you were originally defaulted by BANK on 1st Jan 2015. They then sold the debt to a DCA who took over reporting on 1st July 2018. Your credit file should show the BANK entry until June 2018 and be zero'd off so show a balance of £0 and a status as settled. The new entry From the DCA should begin July 2018 and show the same original balance that used to show on the BANK record, however they'll be reporting the monthly D / status 6 marker now, the bank entry literally ceases to report.

The same debt cannot be defaulted and live reporting twice. Ordinarily I'd help you get it removed but with so many others it's not worth it just yet and may wake sleeping dogs and all that!

To recap, in your case - the original Barclaycard entry should show as settled. The status is the only key point.

I see you've raised the default date issue with Hoist which may draw attention to yourself. If you're not currently paying the debt because payments ceased in June 2019 (for whatever reason) it may make sense for you keep your head down while you do the background research.

My suggestion would be to send a Subject Access Request to Capital One to find out exactly what did (or didn't) happen.

What you want to avoid is Hoist doing their own research prompted by you, correcting any flaws, and then decide to take action to recover the £9k outstanding balance.

What stage has Hoist's collection activity reached?

Also, did you send your s77-79 CCA Request to Hoist or to Robinson Way?

welcome aboard the good ship AAD we hope the crew will help with any questions you may have about your journey with us

Please feel free to wander round the ship and explore the many Diary's left by your fellow passanger's

You may have to wait a while, Hoist don't like to rush with CCA request's

You say Hoist have put a Default on your credit file, they are allowed to do this as the new owner, BUT, it has to show the same default date as the original one,

Robinson way, will be in contact, they like to do automated voice messages, e-mail's, mine all go to my spam folder. At this time I would suggest ignoring them, if you should answer and get an actual human on the phone do not go through the security questions with them, just say all comunication is to be in writing only, do not tell them you are waiting for a CCA from Hoist.
Did you enclose the £1.00 fee with the CCA request?
