Just a quick update. I dialled the number on the form to speak to Adrian St John o assess the possibility of a negotiated settlement. When I finally got through to him he told me that the case had been passed back to Keith Jeremiah. I have left a message for Keith Jeremiah to call me back and was told it would be today. No call yet. Will call him tomorrow.

Thanks for the advice but for the next month I have so much going on that I would prefer to know whether they will settle or press forward with the charade that they want a court case. Could do with not spending £100 AQ fee Friday but will do if no luck tomorrow

Just to let everyone know the telephone call went in my favour and I have now settled with Barclays. It wasn't quite a 100% settlement but was in excess of 90% and due to current financial postition decided to accept (thinking of three week holiday that starts on Thursday with only £200 spending money as would have to pay £100 AQ fee Wednesday). No mention of confidentiality with Mr Keith Jeremiah today and WILL NOT (under ANY circumstances) accept it in the document he is sending me to sign. Also informed him that I WILL NOT stop court action until the deal is finished.

I have got 100% of bank charges and court costs back so the only amount I will have lost out on is some of the 8% interest.

I wish I could of held out for the full amount but this wasn't possible at this time.

Data Protection Act S.A.R - (Subject Access Request) for Barclaycard and Captial One going out his evening. New threads will be started for these.

I know the score - Survey - Donation to CAG - Celebrate with lots of beer!

A special thanks has to go to Don Quioxte for the help shown above and many times more encouragement (and telling off for being too soft) by PM (hope he doesn't think I've been to soft by setlling for less than my total claim).

Thanks also to Vampiress for the spreadsheet and moral support by PM and at the CAG party, Bankfodder, Dave and all the mods and helpers, and all those at the CAG party.

Onward and upwards!

Sorry Bookworm

Are you going to try the phone call? KJ is very nice and may be more amenable to your French accent?

Very, very well done - excellent news.

I was beginning to wonder whether there would ever be any more winners against Barclays / Woolwich!!! Apart from Abbey are they the most stubborn? I'm at AQ stage, I sent Mr Jeremiah a fax telling him this was his last opportunity before I submitted AQ - nothing.

But again, well done you and I hope you have a lovely holiday xxxx
