Hi Andrew1 Yea I know that now.....who can I complain to?? any ideas?? LL:|

I had a letter back from the SRA yesterday, I complained about Mathew Payne. They have received lots of complaints and are not going to do anything!!!!!!! The letter was the biggest load of BULL I have read. I sent them absolute proof they were acting illegally I dont know how Swift get away with it. LL

Hi Dougal, I PM`D you a while back.....did you receive it?? LL:|

Morning SC I think they are to scared to file there accounts as Companies House will say they ARE relevant LL

Hi SC Not sure about caravans, more likely 6 x 6 cells!! Dougal Last edited by Dougal16T; Today at 09:44. Reason: Having a 'bad hair day'..couldn't spell my name!! I thought you only had 1 left ha ha:lol:

Alot of guests this morning SC GOOD MORNING GUESTS LL

Swift Group name belongs to another company This is the real Swift Group website http://www.swiftleisure.co.uk/swift-group

No problem Shoops like SJ said gather your information and get good legal advice LL

Hi everyone Here is some information for you Eastern Counselling are not a department with Swift Advances plc ......that was a trading style that they stopped using ( removed from their license in 2002 or thereabouts) it is a historic trading name, that they carried on using to charge £250 for each lillegal letter that was sent out under that name and that is out right fraud by deception. LL:-)

Morning Dougal Thanks dads not to bad at the moment.....Count me in on a petition, they have to be stopped!!!! LL

Hi Dougal Totally agree with you...BUT everyone does not seem to get involved....I wish they would, more numbers more power..flogging a dead horse PS hope you are well LL

Hi Lesterlass I'm not intentionally playing devil's advocate here although it may be seen that way, but can you explain on what basis is this not legal? If you are contending that Swift Group Legal Services was not a trading name on the licence of Swift Advances plc at the time Shoops was getting letters from them and therefore not legal as in breach of the Consumer Credit Act, it might be a bit of stretch to argue the relevance of that to a case involving a mortgage regulated under the Financial Services and Markets Act with Swift 1st Limited. I would also point out that while on the basis of your interpretation of the law you think Swift (whether Advances plc or 1st Limited) have done something that is not legal, there has not (as far as I am aware) been a successful criminal prosecution so the issue has not been tested in a court of law and is unproven. As I say, I'm not deliberately trying to be contradictory, I'm just trying to draw attention to issues which I think could weaken your arguments before they are raised with Swift or in court and make sure you are prepared. KC Hi KC I think SC answered the questions Could not agree with you more SC. If there were no need for them to be licensed they would not be trying to get them now. And if you challenge them they do not write back. LL

Hi SC They are registered with the SRA as an organisation and employees of Swift Group legal Services, they can only represent themselves They are not registered as a Law firm. LL.

Hi SC Yes it is like a debt collection letter, As above it is not legal they should not be sending them. LL

Swift 1st Ltd and Swift Advances plc do not have their own in house solicitors capable of acting in legal proceedings and in any event they are now the so called in hose solicitors of SWIFT SECURITIES LTD. THey have been added to the renewal application of the CCA licence of Swift Advances plc as trading style ...but they cannot use it until the full licence has been granted. It has also been confirmed by the OFT that they cannot be on two different companies licence. LL

Hi Shoops, In other words Swift Group Legal Services. Bet they did not put a name the letter, maybe a squiggle for a signature. get all you have and report them to the SRA report@sra.org.uk LL

Hi Shoops It should say on the documents somewhere who the solicitors were. They often use a local solicitor for the actual hearing but all the paperwork beforehand will be done usually by there in house solicitors, Swift Group Legal Services, if they have used them they are committing an offence. I have reported them to the Solicitors Regulation Authority. LL

Hi Shoop was it this year, and who were the solicitors LL

Hi Shoop was it this year, and who were the solicitors LL

Thanks SC I thought so, I have the paperwork from the court stating Swift Group Legal Services were taking over that was dated 1st FEB 2008 signed by MAthew Payne. J W Godfrey was not employed by SGLS was he. I was hoping it was formed before that date. LL

Hi Sc I have read in 1 of your posts (cant find it again) that Swift Group Legal Services registered in 2007? do you have anymore on that? thanks LL:-)

Hi FF, Mine neither about time. LL

Hi DOC just PM`D you LL
