Court Hearing - 6th September ???

[gorge]

Please could someone help ...

I'm due in Court on 6th September, my claim is only for just over £100!!!!

Has anyone got a email address for Barclaycard as I thought it may be worth contacting them to settle? What do you think?

I've looked on the Court list and my local Court seems to be dealing with each case as an individual.

Apparently the emails are coming back unanswered, meanin either the whole company is on leave, or they are ignoring us!

Be prepared to go to court - they may or may not turn up. If they do turn up, they will most likely be asking for a stay. so prep up on that so you can counter-argue and push them to settle!

Good Luck

For that amount, they will probably pay up. There should be a contact / email address on their website.

Are you sure you mean £100?

Most cases I have seen that have been under a couple of hundred were sorted much earlier on...?

I would only try ringing, emailing won't work.

Make sure you write the date and times of the calls down, and write down what you say, and show this to the judge. I woudl think for the ammount the judge will be less than pleased that they have not even tried to settle with you!

Good luck

Yes I confirm the amount to be £116.00 in charges, 8% interest approx 17.00 plus £30.00 Court fee - A GRAND TOTAL OF £163.00!!!!

I'll try giving them a call tomorrow, don't really want to go to the hassle of preparing a Court bundle for this silly amount.

Thanks everyone for their help so far.

It's still your money no matter what the amount - go get 'em

[pjdavies2000]

apparently they are alive and well, and answering phones, so give them a ring - send an email with exactly what you have said afterwards asking them to confirm that this is a true copy of what was said, or if you can record the convo.

It is important you can show the judge you have made every effort to mediate the case out of court. And if they say something that can be used against them you have a record of that.

Good luck!!!

(Money - I agree amount is not the issue, just suprised that they are conitnuing, seeing as a solicitor will cost a heck of a lot more than that!)

ps - worth mentioning to them (bank) that it isn't financially beneficial for them to continue the case, as further costs will be added, and you are sure a judge, and indeed shareholders, will be less than happy with the reasoning behind this.

Try this number, Gorge - 0207 1164664 - and quote your claim number and the date of the hearing. I did this and my claim was settled more or less following the phone call.
