Sarajane v Barclays -Mercantile court allocation - then ***WON***

[tigger26]

Claim issued 22/06/06
Deemed as served 28/06/06

[tigger26]

Barclays filed an Acknowledgement of Service on 30th June 2006

[tigger26]

Letter received from Mr Keith Jeremiah yesterday with the copy of Barclays defence.

It is exactly the same as everyone else's.

Does anyone at Barclays Litigation department read the claim forms, I made sure I put my account number on the N1 and stated to 'see attached sheet' with regards to the breakdown of charges claimed. And they have the audacity to say that I did not .

Anyway, s'pose I wait to hear from the court now ?


Can the title of my thread be changed to Sarajane v Barclays please ?

[MARTIN3030]

good luck Sarah I am only a week behind you (on the last couple of days before the deadline from the lba runs out)


No doubt you will be sorted soon.......and asked to sign their conf agreement.
(Which is ok if they offer more money to do so )

Thanks Martin,

Like some others, I'm not going to be pressured into signing something I'm not happy about.

BTW, my name's Sara

Right, off we go.

The court has sent me a copy of Barclays' defence & an allocation questionnaire N150 to complete by 14th August.

I've been following Jonni2bad's guidance to complete the form but I've got confused , not so hard to do to me .

1) What is meant by Proposed Directions please and what exactly is the reply for this section?

2) In the section for Other Information, I have already sent Barclays my spread sheet with the breakdown of charges & interest costs incurred since date of offence, yet their defence claims otherwise, do I need to state this or re send it?

3) After spending several weeks reading other peoples threads, is it a wise move to email / phone Mr Jeremiah to sort out their settlement beofre posting the AQ back to the Court? As you can see I do babble, so what exactly would I say?

I wait in anticipation

Sara there is info about filling in the AQ in the banks temp section.
They have been known to use the excuse as having no details before.
You can mention it in the AQ but will do no harm to send them another copy.
Also wont do you any harm to e mail Keith J ...........but thats up to you.

Hi,

I'm in the process of drafting an email to Mr Jeremiah & would like to know if this sounds ok?

Dear Mr Jeremiah,

I refer you to my claim against Barclays bank, claim number 6ME02188.

I have received your defence an an allocation questionnaire from the court. Before I return this questionnaire, I was wondering if we could reach full settlement prior to wasting more of your time.

As stated above, I require full settlement, which is £725.00 of charges, £73.56 of interest charges and £0.16 per day since court action issued, which is 40 days including today; £6.40. Therefore total settlement required is £804.96.

I look forward to hearing from you in due course.


Thoughts please

[MARTIN3030]

Looks very tame.

:o

[tigger26]

might have someting to do with a hangover

Cheers Martin

[MARTIN3030]

he he.........getting in the celebration mood in anticipation ?????


cant call you for that !!

[tigger26]

Well, I've had no reply to my email. I have tried by 'phone 3 times and only this morning I got a 'human bean '. Surprisingly Mr J is extremely busy & no guarantee could be given as to when he'd be able to return my call.

So, I've completed the AQ, I've put Barclays' copy in the post, 1st class & I'll be driving upto Chatham on Monday to hand it into the Court.

Who knows, Mr J might then decide to 'make me an offer I cannot refuse'.

We can but hope

Hiya omellmeg

I had AQ N150, which at the top asks if I have sent a copy of this completed form to the other party, so I s'pose you had N149 - the shorter & easier version

Hi Sarajane,
yes I had the N149 and I just delivered it straight to the court with money..I did not submit a copy to Barclays..
Good luck with yours.

[MARTIN3030]

Just out of interest whats the deadline (or time limit for returning the AQ ?)

	Are you letting your bank keep your money Are you giving away thousands of pounds?? Many people aren't claiming all of the money they are entitled to when they make their bank charges claims. You have been forced to pay unfair bank charges. Have you forgotten that your bank has charged you inteest on those charges? If you are overdrawn and the bank owes you charges - then your overdraft is made up of charges - money which you bank owes you. Yet you are paying interest to the bank - on your own money!!! Follow this link to see the discussions on this. You might even double th size of your claim.

[tigger26]

Hi Martin,

I would assume 14 days, as I got the AQ on July 29th & it had to be in by 14th August
