Since 13 th March 2016, in terms of the new National Credit Amendment Act, it is illegal for a company to contact a consumer and demand that they pay a prescribed debt.

If, in the past three years, you have not: made any payment towards settling a debt, acknowledged owing the money in any way or agreed to pay it, or been summonsed in respect of it, it has prescribed, and you can raise this as a defence when asked to pay such a debt.

The debt-collecting company or legal firm should close its file on you at that point. Some do, but others continue with the harassment via SMS, letter or email.

A threat which works well on most consumers is the one about being “blacklisted”, because it’s difficult to live without access to any form of credit.

 But the National Credit Act prohibits the listing of a prescribed debt.
It follows, then, that it’s unethical for debt collectors to use the threat of “blacklisting” in making demands for payment.

This person and Company has been referred to the NCR for Criminal Prosecution.

Value of Claim: $ 10,000-00 plus Damages.

Length of Listing : 25 years

I refer to the your remarks, which indicated to me that you were either confused or you were or had been abusing the bottle or playing with the white powder. 

I demanded who you were because of your abrupt, arrogant and you had a confused attitude. 

You stated that you would ‘’f --- me up and that I was a Black Bastard’’ . You also stated that you would ‘’ come and look for me’’.

It was clear that you were either sick or needed help for your problem

You also stated that you were a partner of Cliff Dekker Hofmeyr and how important you were and that that nobody ‘’f---s with you’’
PEP,  N & S, ISPE are Registered in the USA, and are domicile in the USA.
You are welcome to take the matter further and we would welcome such an action in an American  Court.
I have given instructions to extend the blacklisting to all our WEB sites ( 96 of them in 60 countries / states ) and to Google your name and send it to 550 search engines. You and your client can have some legal fun with this.

However stop wasting your Clients money, and give them some Professional Advice, to settle their Outstanding bill and also Apologise for the 3^rd World  Service they offer the South African Public, and return the domain that they have stolen.

Concourt takes ‘high-price’ counsel down a peg or two

THE Constitutional Court has spoken out about its “disquiet” over how counsel’s fees have “burgeoned in recent years”.

In a judgment handed down yesterday, the 11 justices of the Concourt slashed the amounts a senior advocate and his junior could charge one of their clients.

The judgment deals only with legal costs, which relates to a leave to appeal application that was heard before their court two years ago. The original dispute, however, stems from a lengthy legal clash over a sea view in Camps Bay.

It was effectively a bid by Camps Bay resident Anthony “Buddy” Herman to prevent his neighbour, Gerda Harrison, from building a three-storey house that would interfere with his view. However, Herman lost the battle. In November, 2010, the Concourt denied leave to appeal against a high court ruling and ordered the applicants – the Camps Bay Ratepayers’ and Residents’ Association and PS Booksellers – to pay the respondents’ legal costs for the application.

But Herman, who is also an attorney and represents the applicants, said they objected to the legal costs for Harrison’s two counsel. According to the 2010 Concourt judgment, the advocates representing Harrison were Henry Viljoen, SC, and JC Marais.

They originally charged R453 150 and R263 500 respectively. Following the applicants’ objection, however, the court’s taxing master had cut this down by almost half to R240 000 for Viljoen and R160 000 for Marais.

The losing party, in this case the applicants, were still not happy and sought a review of the taxing master’s decision, which gave rise to yesterday’s Concourt judgment.

The justices found that the amount awarded was “so disproportionate to what is fair and reasonable” that it had to be set aside. They again slashed the legal fees, this time to R180 000 for Viljoen and R120 000 for Marais.

“We feel obliged to express our disquiet at how counsel’s fees have burgeoned in recent years.

“To say that they have skyrocketed is no loose metaphor,” the judgment read.

“No matter the complexity of the issue, we can find no justification, in a country where disparities are gross and poverty is rife, to countenance appellate advocates charging hundreds of thousands of rands to argue an appeal.”

The justices also tipped their hats at the many “accomplished and hardworking” advocates who took on cases pro bono and charged special rates for indigent clients.
