@britishgashelp Bgas - Payment demand after 4 years
Jhawc24 replied to Jhawc24's topic in Utilities - Gas, Electricity, Water
Thanks andy, it's not standing charges or from the LL. The bills were correct and settled with credits from other accounts back in 2014. But now BG are denying they were settled. -
@britishgashelp Bgas - Payment demand after 4 years
Jhawc24 replied to Jhawc24's topic in Utilities - Gas, Electricity, Water
Can anyone advise further, I'm really struggling with this one. British gas are not budging and stating their email from October 2014 is wrong. That the accounts were never settled. In the event where I found out that the bills were not cleared and closed as they had advised in 2014, then now that they are chasing me after 4 years of nothing can I defend it under the backbilling rule? If it was their error they told me accounts were settled and closed, can they reopen them? Still waiting on SAR response . -

Thank you unclebulgaria, I have already raised a complaint before I found this email, I've also sent an SAR. They have not responded yet, but I have a reference so I'm going to forward this onto them using that reference. -

I've been going through my old emails, I never delete anything thankfully. I have responses from British Gas about a complaint I made in 2014 re: these bills. The resolve was to use my credit from different BG accounts to clear the two outstanding debts. In their email they state the two bills 'exact amounts they are demanding' have been cleared and in fact have credit balances remaining. Well now I have some ammunition, what a load of donuts. -

Thank you, just looking at template, is it the new gdpr letter I send? -
I have just received demands for final balances, gas and electric, after moving out 4 years ago. Firstly I did give final readings, as my ex LL was a problem, I also transferred my accounts to my new address, and still at the same address. I can't remember if I got final bills from that long ago. The demands I've received state they have tried contacting me several times, and that I have 28 days to pay or the will register defaults on my credit file! Any advice, I have emailed a complaint to them.

Pounds till Pay day Complaint - no response
Jhawc24 replied to Jhawc24's topic in PayDay loans and Short Term loans - General
I got a payday loan from PoundsTillPayday in 2010, I defaulted and was paying bit by bit. It was apparently 'assigned' to Merligen Investments. I've recently requested all documents, and have noted on the 'notice of assignment' that they have put QuickQuid down and not PoundsTillPayday, bad editing on their part I think. Quick question but what are the chances of defending if they goes for CCJ? -
Complaint Payday Express / Payday UK
Jhawc24 replied to Jhawc24's topic in PayDay loans and Short Term loans - General
Looking for advice on this one please. I ended up taking this complaint to the ombudsman re: payday express, initially loan was taken out in May 2009, from then on the loan was rolled over every month until 2011. So I ended up paying over £2K for a £500 loan! The FO adjudicator has sent me a response advising that they are not willing to look into my complaint as the original loan was taken out in May 2009 over the six years. This is what they quote in their email: jurisdiction – application of the rules Under the rules that apply to our service, we cannot consider a complaint brought to the business more than six years after the relevant event. As set out by the FCA, DISP rule 2.8.2 says that if a consumer brings a complaint after six years, we should look at when the consumer should reasonably have known they had something to complain about. If the consumer should have known more than three years before they raised the complaint, we cannot look at it. The relevant time to bring the complaint to us would have been a maximum of six years from the initial point of lending, which was May 2009. Whilst I appreciate this may come as a disappointment, but in light of the time-bar, I am unable to look into this complaint further. They have given me to the 30th June if I want to request that this complaint is referred to the ombudsman ... Although I know that the initial loan was in May 2009 I assumed that each time you rolled over then it was creating a new 'contract / agreement'. Any suggestions on how I should respond? any advice greatly accepted. -
Pounds till Pay day Complaint - no response
Jhawc24 replied to Jhawc24's topic in PayDay loans and Short Term loans - General
Thank you fkofilee. Thats understood.My complaint to the ombudsman would be that they have not acknowledged / responded to my complaint and that they have not followed the complaints procedure, rather than the loans. Am I able to do this?Regards Joan -
So far I have had several successes with Wageday Advance, Lending Stream and MyJar, and I still have several ongoing complaints with other pdl companies. With regards to Pounds till pay day, having read through a lot of the other threads its seems that as they were not based in the UK when I originally got loans from them then its quite unlikely to get a resolve. However, they have not even responded to my complaint, despite following their complaints policy. They have totally blanked me. My question is now that the 8 weeks is here, can I complain to the ombudsman based on this? that they have failed even to respond to my complaint. Its was sent after they became UK registered and therefore having to abide by the regulations. I know the FO problably will not look into my complaint re: loans, surely now they should follow their complaints procedure? Any advice before I attempt to go to the FO gladly received.

Complaint Payday Express / Payday UK

Thanks you again, I thought this was the case otherwise what's the point in having an 8 week deadline, they could just take as long as they wanted!
