Lowell took over my case from Vanquis Bank last autumn, though I don’t owe to this credit card company. Vanquis rejected my last payment nine months ago, charged off the account, and sold my account data to Lowell against my wishes. I explicitly told Vanquis to transfer the account lawfully, via deed of assignment, though they ignored me. I was on a call with a manager at Lowell Financial. While I was explaining what the law says about data handling and deed of assignment, the line dropped. When I called back, a call handler refused to reconnect me to the manager and demanded my date of birth, which I do not provide to third parties. He then accused me of sounding like a “freeman on the land conspiracy theorist.” When I asked what that meant, he refused to explain and still wouldn’t transfer me before disconnecting the call. Once I finally reached the manager again, I apologised for the delay (the company didn’t have my phone no). I didn’t complain, I simply asked whether he knew what “freeman on the land conspiracy theorist” meant? 🤭 The manager apologised for the experience and said he would monitor the call and discipline the handler if necessary. 😄 He also offered to request that my case be closed based on the information I gave him, though he couldn’t guarantee that Lowell Portfolio would agree - so we’ll see. Lowell sent a £25 cheque as an apology for the poor call handling. 👏Staying polite clearly paid off for me!

Anyone had any success with offshore banking for the trust

So this is the best christmas present we could have wished for. After 2 years of writing to dorset clowncil using GDPR, writing to the attorney general, writing to my MP we did it. The thing is we don't know which of the levers we pulled hit the jackpot... or if it was a case of the straw that broke... so I can't really provide direction for you to get remedy for yourselves. One thing that happened (maybe synchronicity?) was that while I was writing to the Clowncil, I got an email from them asking to take a survey... so I immediately did that and made it clear that we no longer were residents residing in dwelling... indeed we'd 'left' the UK (jurisdiction). We got a CCA form which is to correct electoral register information. Maybe that alone was the win? I hope this gives you an incentive to get off the register. It does seem to be the biggest 'claim' on us being taxable PERSONS when we are on these registers.

Recently won a claim via settlement agreement...without going into too many details this was agianst a large corperation and resulted in a few thousand £ and avoided court. Important points - Pre action protocol was followed two LBAs were served prior to issuimg a claim, they ignored them both. This is a personal approach, but I want hasty in issuimg a claim, and I think this demonstrates you are equitable and this would be seen favourably if it goes all the way to court. This was a win for sure and the first GDPR win via a court/mcil claim route. This was due to my own learning and understnding of gdpr/sar, filling correctly, pre action protocols and tight paperwork that meant I was able to checmate them and see through their indeffencable defence ♟️💪🏻. This was also due to Peters and Dimebars dedication to knowledge sharing and establishing this group along with others that bring all the resourses available in CMTM, and a massive thanks to Peter and Dimebar and the group as a whole for assisting and sharing knowledge which means wins lime this are possible with the right grounding and attitude...we win or we learn....big thanks and appreciateion 💪🏻♟️🤝🏻
