Lowell have discontinued, letter arrived confirming thanks for everyones help, especially dx100uk

Mediation call done, basically they asked for payment via installments, and said the paperwork was on they way. I rejected their request, case going to court

Ok, didn't realise

No other didn't unfortunately, will that have an impact?

Defence below, currently I have not received any paperwork from Lowells: The Defendant contends that the particulars of claim are vague and generic in nature. The Defendant accordingly sets out its case below and relies on CPR r 16.5 (3) in relation to any particular allegation to which a specific response has not been made. 1. Paragraph 1 is accepted insofar that a relationship did exist between the Defendant and Sky and BT however, I cannot recall this account (Agreement) and the Claimant has yet to supply me with a copy of the Account/Agreement mentioned in particulars of Claim. 2. Paragraph 2 is denied, the defendant does not recall any breach and again the Claimant has yet to supply me with a copy of the agreement requested through the PAPDC reply form and CPR 31.14. The Defendant denies failing to maintain the required payments to Sky and BT. It is denied that I have failed to respond to demands for payment sent by the claimant and/or its agents. The Claimant is put to strict proof that any such demands have been sent to me by the claimant 3. The defendant did not receive and is unaware of any legal notice of assignment or Notice of Assignment pursuant to Law and property Act 1925 Section 136(1). a). The Claimant admits it is the assignee of a debt, it is denied that the Claimant has the right to lay a claim due to contraventions of Section 136 of the Law of Property Act 1925. 4. Therefore, the defendant denies owing any money to the Claimant and the claimant is put to strict proof: a. Show how the Defendant has entered into an Agreement. b. Show how the Defendant has reached the amount claimed for. c. That Defendant failed to maintain the required payments and the service was terminated as claimed. 5. As per Civil Procedure Rule 16.5(4) it is expected that the Claimant prove the allegation that the money is owed; having been provided with written requests for information under CPR 31.14 and to date have failed to provide any such documentation as detailed on the particulars of claim. 6. Notwithstanding the above should the alleged amount claimed include an early termination charge(s) amounting to the entire balance of the remaining contract. OFCOM guidance states that any Early Termination Charge that is made up of the entire balance if the remaining contract is unlikely to be fair as it fails to consider the fact that the provider no longer has to provide and pay for their service.

Credit where credit is due dx, I followed your advice and phoned them, and they informed me that they had written the alleged debt off. Have now received a letter saying the same, which I am passing on to the land registry Thank you for your help

Looks like Lowell have issued a court claim, which I have acknowledged. The mcol website is inviting me to offer a defence, was wondering if you guys could help me with it, or point me in the right direction?

Thanks dx, I understand. However what legal recourse is available to get it sorted? I've been offered a great deal with my existing lender

I have written to them asking for them to confirm any financial interest in my property but they have not responded. Its been a month. Wondering what options I have now as I want this removed from my property

Thanks dx. I also received an information sheet which lists what documents I should request from them, including a copy of a written contract for the debt, a full statement of the account, a noa and a description of any admin charges on the account. They've not provided any so this will be pointed out should this go to court

Hello all I have received a letter from Lowell stating that I owe them money from an old Sky account. I replied asking for any statements, contracts relating to the account and any NOA. They responded with a template NOA, nothing else. I was wondering what the next stage is, as I see that they like to take people to court.

Text is: Restriction: no disposition of the registered estate other than the disposition by the proprietor of any registered charge registered before the entry of this restriction is to be registered without a certificate signed by the applicant for registration or their conveyancer that written notice of the disposition was given to cl finance Ltd at Howard cohen being the person with the benefit of an interim charging order

Yes I will post it later

Yes I have

Its howard cohen. I wrote to them last year and got no reply. Now I need to know what to do as I am stuck on a scrappy mortgage. I want to take court action but am not sure of the way forward

I cant name names as it will compromise me, I suspect the creditor has sold the debt but the new creditor doesn't have any paperwork. Planning to somehow get the restriction removed thru the courts, but dont know how to

All I have a charging restriction on my property. I wrote to the creditor who is mentioned on the land registry but got no answer back. I want to remortgage but I am stuck due to this. Any ideas?
