    In this instance, and this is why this case is so important, the two signed credit agreements they produced in evidence weren't "reconstituted" documents.


    PRA Group (UK) Limited presented them to us and the court as scanned copies of the two original signed MBNA agreements with the prescribed terms & conditions on the back of both. The court found as fact this was not the case for each agreement and that both were therefore irredeemably unenforceable under s.127 (3) of the Consumer Credit Act 1974..


    Similarly with the Deeds of Assignment even though virtually totally unredacted Deeds were presented to the court, together with letters confirming the assignment from MBNA etc again the court found that that there was no evidence of assignment of our client's debt presented to the court.
    I don't quite understand the first part.
    Does this mean that the 'scanned copies' presented in court were scanned from documents 'created' using a John Bull Printing Set and a signature 'rescued' from correspondence?

    Having seen a redacted single entry on an abbreviated Excel spreadsheet line I can see why most people would reject it a evidence.

            Good to see the celebrations continue

            The judgment will have a lasting effect too.

            I'll update a bit more next week.

              Another headache for PRA Group (UK) Limited today as we won another case against them in Walsall County Court. The District Judge found for us in all our defence points - the agreement unenforceable, no evidence of assignment, bad default notice, non service of statutory notices and s.78 CCA 1974 breach. Refused permission to appeal. It was a 10k claim.

                      See I am more of the thinking that PRA have bullied their way through thinking (incorrectly) that the law does not apply to them and have never really been squared up against. However luckily for us, Jo knew she was right and knew they were wrong so she did in fact square up to them and this is the outcome - repeated beatings.

                      I hope it does more than require a fund, I hope it forces them to reconsider their whole business plan because they have now been proved wrong and in fact, I wonder how many incorrect judgments have been made as a result of their bullying?

                      It's firms like this which give the whole industry a bad name, unnecessarily so.

                      Well done Jo. Keep at it
