7/3/12...Letter received.....Under the heading..Re: Request to cancel your credit agreement.
It says they have provided me with a copy of the current credit agreement...a copy of which i put on page 3 0f this thread.
They say it sets out the contractual arrangement that is in place at this time,and includes all applicable contractual variants and amendments that have taken place since the account was opened.
It is clear by ordering and purchasing goods from us,you acknowledge that there is an existing relationship in place.
In the event that you did not believe that there was such a relationship it is unlikely you would have bought and continued to buy goods from us.
The latest case law in relation to the enforceability of credit agreements has made clear that unenforceability does not mean that the rights of the parties under a credit agreement were never acquired or are extinguished.
Failure to make payments will affect my credit rating,blah,blah,blah...

16/3/12....Statement recieved with £12.00 late payment fee added...
Letter received from arrears collection dept...the usual contact us to arrange payment blah,blah,blah..

29/3/12....Letter received from Very...Thank you for your letter regarding the number of calls you have received,please accept our apologies that you have found it necessary to complain.
All complaints are taken seriously,and we will contact you after a full investigation..... What a pile of horse dung!!

Had a response from both Trading standards today as well as consumer direct....basically acknowledging my complaint,and confirming traders legal obligation regarding harassment...someone will contact me over the next few days if they require any further information.

HFC
Flexible loan.
Started: 2003
Defaulted:2011
Balance:£800
Last payment:July 2011
Now paying:Nothing

31/1/12...CCA request sent to HFC.
27/2/12...Account in default letter sent to HFC, as no CCA has been received.
7/3/12.....letter received from HFc advising account in arrears..no mention of my previous letters sent....

I think i may re send the account in default letter,i never recorded the one sent out on 27/2/12,but i did record the CCA request along with £1.00 postal order on 31/1/12....i reckon 2nd class recorded should do it...

14/3/12....Letter received from HFC....They are concerned we have not reached an arrangement for the repayments.
Considering the appropriate course of action..DCA,solicitors etc,etc...
They may consider temporarily suspending payments,or accept reduced payments.

Advice welcome...my thoughts are that i should send a reply reminding them of the failure to respond to my CCA request...

21/3/12....Letter received today from HFC.....FINAL DEMAND...After numerous attempts to resolve account its now being passed onto their litigation dept.
I guess because i am still waiting for my CCA, FOR WHICH THEY ARE IN DEFAULT..i would assume that i ignore this threat letter....or do i????

22/3/12...Letter received today from HFC....please be advised your account is now in arrears blah,blah,blah,Account is now being handled by the recoveries section.
We urge you to respond to this letter...
Ignore...still waiting for the CCA....

31/3/12...After sending back copies of the £1.00 postal order and proof of postage i sent out on 31/1/12...i received a letter back today from HFC....They confirm receipt of my letter dated 15/3/12 requesting ......Subject Access Request....??????????
They do as previously advised need a signature,it can be either a copy of passport or driving license.....
Once they receive that they will respond within the guidelines of 40 days....

Now... dilemma....do i ignore....they are after all so stupid i dont think anything i respond with will register.......
Or do i send them a bugger off and dont contact me again until you send the correct documents i requested back in January?????

6/4/12...I never responded to the last letter sent.....received from HFC on the 5/4/12 a letter stating all of the things they can do if payments do not resume on account.....while bearing in mind they are still in default of my CCA request, ensures this letter will be filed and ignored...

Re: Stuff the banks ue diary

Mint c/c
Started.2003
Balance.£3500
Status.Default.2007
Last payment.February 2012.
Now paying.Nothing.

29/1/12...CCA request sent to mint...
8/3/12...Mint returned £1.00 postal order along with letter reusing to hand over the CCA until i send signature....
9/3/12....Template letter sent to Mint - link - for creditor refusing to accept without signature,along with the £1.00 postal order.

24/3/12...2 letters received today from Mint...
1st letter...We are disappointed that you have failed to comply with our agreement.Immediate payment or will go to external DCA....
2nd Letter....Its another refusal to accept my CCA request without me submitting my signature....no postal order sent back though.....
Any advice will be most welcome!
25/3/12....Cloggy's letter sent.


2/3/12....Letter received from Mint...dated 28/3/12....Same as before....no CCA just a form requesting signature,and the postal order returned this time......
Now i sure as hell wont be signing anything...i have tried how many times to get what i am entitled to by law,and without the need of a signature....Now maybe the letter i sent on the 25/3/12 may have crossed in the post....but i still have the problem of now being in receipt of the postal order.....
I think i should be sending it back again...but with another copy of Cloggy's letter....or one of the more formal templates???
I just want to know how i stand legally at the moment should they want to sell debt,or start to make threats......
Any advice will be most welcome as always...

3/4/12....Letter sent to mint informing them that if they do not send the documents this time i will pass on to the OFT....
Just for good measure,yet another CCA template request sent along with the £1.00 postal order they keep sending back..

12/4/12...Letter from Mint today...Its not responded in any way to the requset for the CCA,not even chasing up signature...
This one is slapping my bottom telling me i have failed to respond to the banks previous DEMANDS and they have no alternative but to commence further proceedings for the recovery of the outstanding balance..
Urge me to call the office immediately...
Failure to do so within 7DAYS...( letter dated 5/4/12..and received today...envelope kept and stapled to letter ) may result in your account being transferred to external debt collectors......
Any advice...other than ignore..which is what i may just do for now.........
