I am Supporting Age UKs petition. as a compromise BBC if they feel they need to charge surely it is logical to Means Test the more well of Pensioners,I accept the BBC will only receive a smaller contribution,but that is a compromise worth proceeding with.There is really no reason to have a TV licence at all there are numerous ways of funding this completely incompetent organisation FS

eric thanks for your response, we started with an 6 month AST that was 20+ years ago which was never renewed until 2 years ago with another 6 month AST which once again has never been renewed, at the same time we had a 25% rent increase and now we are facing another 25% increase in September.The LL agent stated after taking legal advice that the 10% rent increase letter was no longer enforceable FS

Do nothing if your partner has never had a HSBC account and now Drydens state the account was opened in 1991,as no contact or payments have been made it would be Statute Barred and they Drydens are well aware of this.If you feel a need to respond simply state you have never had a HSBC account, and should you continue to Harass Me I will take the matter up with the Financial Ombudsman.For sure do not fill in any form regarding your Income and Outgoings FS

Eric you are correct the interest is very low which will stop me from making any form of complaint,just having a sound of,as it is the same Landlord who refuses to honour a letter sent 18+ years ago that my rent would never increase more than 10% FS

My Landlord has changed the TDS type from Insurance to Custodial and advises me that I will no longer receive Interest on my Deposit after 20+ years of receiving interest ,it was a part of the original contract.Can they do this??????? FS

The above letter is a must from Ell-enn,you will find item 7 which covers the Mortgage Account History difficult for the Mortgage Company or better still the DCA who the debt will be sold to having the ability to comply with your request for complete breakdowns of every item FS

Have the Mortgage Company supplied you with documents usually called "Mortgage Account History" which lists all the charges such as Repossession Costs,Solicitors Costs etc etc FS

Eric thanks for the reply YES!!! daft enough to keep paying,I really did not notice they had not sent statements, Thanks FS

received a letter from Arrow headed "Remediation of Account" stating that they have not provided a regular statement since 2012 and they have now corrected this by sending a statement for each year, and they apologise for the error. I have been paying them £5 each month during this period, on checking the legality they are required to provide a statement ach year and if they don't as I understand it you can with hold payments and interest if they are charging interest. Prior to 2012 I sent a CCA and SAR and all the correct documents exist, So my only question is can they get away with not providing statements yearly for a period of 7 years and do a catch up legally FS

many years ago on the 13th of the month I paid 1 months rent in advance and a deposit, I am hoping to move shortly and give my 1 months notice on the 14th May 2019, which is also my rent payment date the rent in advance was £475, is it correct to deduct the £475 from the current months rent?????? The deposit is held by an outside company which I believe is the law and will get this back assuming there are no claims against me for any damage,is this the correct procedure. Thank you FS

Did Barclaycard actually send you a Default Letter?? They are notorious for not actually issuing a Default Date Letter?????? They start by accepting a payment plan from you,then sell the debt on to Link or PRA,who both register the debt under their name on credit files FS

Looks like possible back pack wear, however to appear on just one side it is possible that there is a fault in the material.Return it to RL they will probably offer some form of recompense. Can I just advise you from vast experience High End BRANDS are grossly overpriced and far from being top quality Good Luck with RL FS

I am sure you have covered this,did you have PPI with the account. CCA will throw up any ???? with the account, for example have they all the correct documentation for starters.Opinions vary on this but I would send the CCA request to Intrum,they will probably reply they will have to go back to Tesco,they have a time limitation to reply often referred to as 12+2 days to reply FS

No it should not appear on your CRA,the 6 year period is up.However keep a close eye on your CRA Intrum would not be the first to try and register a new default. For info LINK try this quite often FS

45002 thanks for your trouble will read your links thanks FS

Many thanks for your responses,I am now clear on what these tenancy types mean FS

Thanks for the reply's No the last AST which expired March 2018 does not show the words Protected Rent,as sgtbush states I thought this applied to pre 1989 tenancies Would Regulated Tenancy apply???? or be advantages ???? Thanks FS

Protected Tenancy or Regulated Tenancy having problem understanding these. Private Tenant since June 1997 same property same landlord Last AST expired March 2018 Facing another huge rent increase Have always paid rent increases Asked the Landlord to apply small rent increase every 2 years or so Landlord through Agent stating they can get at least £400 to £500 more than the rent I am paying I argue Have been a good tenant for 23 years and always paid my rent on time and look after the property over and above the Norm,they are not interested Am I a Protected or regulated Tenant????? and what are my rights ,if any???? Thanks in advance FS

Many thanks for your replies, will contact the Council FS

I live in an area where there are numerous rural footpaths. The one to the side of our house has a concrete low level sign which states "Public Footpath" would I be right in thinking for this sign to exist the Local Council must have some involvement???? I maintain this footpath which runs through a small Copse as well which I also Maintain, at my own expense and time then onto farmland. The path appears on the Ordinance Survey Map and also the Local Ramblers Map, because I maintain it voluntarily should anybody have an accident whilst on the path have I made myself responsible FS

Re-Phrase, as long as there are No Parking restrictions of any nature,any body can park including the customers of the business in your street, residents do not have any priority.Should you and the other residents decide to approach the Council to put in place a residents parking scheme, depending on the council in question it can be very expensive.

You will find if you go down the route of Residents Parking Permits depending on where you live you may well have to pay the council every year for the permit, and this can be expensive. Councils will always use the excuse "there is nothing they can do" The road outside of your property as long as there are No Parking restrictions of any nature can be used by anybody for parking FS

Hi....has anybody had any success with telling your electricity supplier that you would prefer to stay with them but you can get a better price from many other suppliers would they like to match these cheaper offers???? FS

With Stepchange after 12 months they will ask you to complete a current income and expenditure form and they will then tell you what disposable income will go towards paying of your debt.However you can run your own payment plan with Santander. Before this, tell us when did you take out the Loan and the credit card,how long ago? FS

Did you stop paying Stepchange in 2016 ??? FS
