Yes, Do it!! They are just making things difficult for everyone. Ignore all their threats and go ahead to claim what it rightfully yours. Its well worth getting it going now rather than at the end of the year.
Good Luck

Hi Emma, sorry to hear your bairns have been going without because of bank charges, carry on with your claim and attempt to get the stay removed.

The grounds on which you can base your request for removal are stronger when your benefits are taken and hardship results (I think). I remember reading a thread on a similar vein, but I cant find it just now.

Someone will have the info your need.

Right of Appropriation - Stop the bank taking your money


Check out this link in the library if you have not seen it all ready.

If you have already started court action then on the thread mentioned in previous post you have to fil in form N244 and pay £35.00 ( not sure if you are not exempt.

If you have not started court action - i suppose you carry on and then send the letter to the bank.

Which court will it be - we might be able to check out what is happening with other cases there.

Also go to search button above - do advanced search

enter STAY

and look for threads ( not posts) you will see lots of threads asking questions about having stays lifted

Jansus has the right idea about your fees being exempt if your on benefits, you should look into this to save you the £35.

Hi Emma
If you have a case of genuine financial hardship, A&L must deal with your conplaint under the BANKING CODE if your not happy with the banks responce to your complaint, you can take it to the Ombudsman, who will consider wether your complaint can be dealt with BEFORE the test case is resolved. Hope this helps

we support A&L freedom fighters
