Hi
Hope all works out good luck.

When they entered their defence did the court automatically send you the allocation questionnaire or did you have to contact them. Abbey have just entered their defence of my claim and wondered what happens next?

Cheers

Just to let you guys know - Sunil received a letter from Abbey today (the day before the directions hearing was due to take place) offering payment in full of his claim!!! They said they will be transferring in a total of £589 into his account - It looks like (and I'm hoping) they may have forgotten they already paid £200 odd in a few months ago so we could really be quids in!

Thanks so much for the forum - really wouldn't have been able to do it without you guys!!! Donation shortly forthcoming.

Now it's Barclays turn!

Good luck to everyone else - just want to say don't give up or be intimidated, this took almost a year but was worth it in the end.

all the best,


Lori
