  • Cabot Financial - Simple Procedure (Scotland)

    Hi all,

    as as I can't seem to get the online form to work here goes.....

    Received a claim? Yes/No: Yes (simple procedure)

    Issue Date: Unsure - What is this ?

    Have you Acknowledged the Claim?: do I have too ?

    Total Amount Claimed: £2416.82

    Claimant’s Name: Cabot Financial uk ltd

    Solicitors Firm: Nolans

    Original Creditor: Next directory (catalogue / store card)

    Original Debt (eg. Credit card/Loan/Overdraft) : catalogue / store card

    Particulars of Claim: Please type out in full excluding names/account numbers: On 17/10/2011 the respondent entered a mail order agreement with next directory under which the respondent borrowed from them a sum of money repayable on demand. The said agreement was an agreement regulated under the consumer credit act 1974. The respondent failed to pay as agreed on demand and is in breach of contract with the said next directory. The said supplier assigned all rights in the said debt to Cabot financial uk limited on 05/01/17 and the claimants have advised the respondent of the same. The last pay,net was made to account on 16/04/15 the said sum of £2416.82 is the sum sued for. The claimants have made frequent requests to the respondent to make payment of the said sum but the respondent has refused or delayed to do so

    Is the debt Statute Barred (have you had any contact with the creditor or claimant over the last 6 years?): no - don't think so ?

    List any letters you have sent (eg: CCA/ CPR ) : none - should I ?

    Any Other Information or Background Details: Took unwell just before Xmas 2014 and was treated in hospital for what was initially thought to be a stroke, however turned out I had a brain tumor. Was on sick leave from work for approx 16 weeks, and wasn't in a financial position to make payments. Account obviously went into arrears and then I basically just ignored them. Here we are now.I know I had an account with next but unsure as to values etc, I have had a few letters from Cabot and nooses but have just binned these.


    What are my options now ?

      Thanks charitynjw, I didn't think it was statute barred due to the dates but wasn't sure.

      any advice on how I should progress with this ?

      ive read about the coca and crp letters but also read the crp doesn't apply in Scotland ?

        Do you mean CCA?

        I believe Scotland has it's own versions, but I'm not au fait with them.

              I’m guessing no one can help me with the above ?

              Anyone on here who has experienced this ?

                          What paperwork have they provided you with? Have they given you a copy of the original agreement, any default notice etc?

                            No, nothing, just the simple procedure paperwork.

                              First get a CCA request off to the claimant - CCA Request Letter
                              Then you have an initial defence to the claim to begin with for your response. Your return date is the 24th ?

                              I'm not sure when Next sorted out their agreements, as older accounts just never had them, but I'm guessing they sorted it out around 2006/7 and by 2011 had online ( compliant ) agreements that they are able to retreive ?
