hiya

have they acknowledged the claim? cos they have 14 days to acknowledge then when they do they get another 14 days to file the defence (I think thats how it goes), then you might or might not get allocation questionnaire to fill in. If they haven't acknowledged then v good think you can get judgement. If I have got that wrong then someone will say.

no post today........and still, the returned cheque offer has not been signed for.so i presume it has not been delivered. on the bright side the letter to wragges has been delivered,so they are getting a taste of their own medicine today.that makes me feel a bit better

Hi
That's a real shame, I had my fingers crossed for you that they wouldn't acknowledge the claim at all. Keep your chin up.

Hi Luvvy....Try not to worry, i didnt send my chq back recorded, but i wrote to wraggies and asked them to confirm receipt. You have covered your back and have postal receipt....thats your proof...and of course they can check the chq hasnt been cashed. You've done your bit!!

Red face Re: chubbas dad v reliance & fester

I got an offer through today a measly £530 (mine is over £2000 claim). It's the SECOND time they've offered me this amount! They sent a cheque when they sent me the first offer and said I should destroy the cheque or send it back so I don't think they'll pursue you too much about the cheque as long as it hasn't been cashed that's the main thing. In this offer I just received they gave me an envelope to return my response in and said that they would credit my account immediately if I accepted. I guess it's just more ways of trying to tempt people into discontinuing their court claim...

Don't give up!
