up_the_cahoot v Cahoot! - Page 2

KJBoutcher · 14th September 2006, 15:08

Okeydokey Cahoot, now you get an MCOL for totally ignoring me for the last 28 days. Shoulda paid up guys...

sbb1979 · 14th September 2006, 15:45

Thank you so much for that Karnevil.........I'll send it off this afternoon.

As far as sending the schedule of charges to the court, who at the court should I be sending it to. Is there a particular job title that I should address it to?

sbb1979 · 27th September 2006, 11:36

Ok, update....

Sent letter to the courts with my schedule of charges (because I couldn't attach it with the MCOL) and I sent a letter to Cahoot to tell them about my claim.

Checked MCOL today and Cahoot have acknowledged my claim. Therefore if it was deemed served on the 15th September, they have until the 12th/13th October to file a defence.

sbb1979 · 3rd October 2006, 12:04

Once Cahoot had acknowledged my claim, I sent an email to the person at DLA who signed the acknowledgement. In the email, I attached a schedule of charges along with my bank account number and sort code, just in case they decide to mess me around and claim that they don't know which one it is.

Got the following reply the next day:

Dear Mr B,

Thank you for forwarding the details of your claim together with the
account and sort code.

Kind regards

They've got no excuses now!

sbb1979 · 16th October 2006, 12:02

I've now got a defence from Cahoot. Looks pretty standard to me.

Also have my Allocation Questionaire from the court and have been assigned to Central London County Court.

How much does it cost to file the AQ? My claim is for just under £1500.

Lager_Lou · 16th October 2006, 13:44

I think AQ always costs £100, irrespective of the amount.

jellybabe · 16th October 2006, 15:25

i don't know.I had my AQ from a different claim coming through the other day with a covering letter saying:
You must complete the enclosed AQ on or before the 23 October 2006 and return it, where the claim is over £1500, the court fee of £100 to........
To me it sounds like if the amount claimed is under £1500, the AQ is free.
At least i hope so......sent mine off this morning without fee.

Lager_Lou · 16th October 2006, 15:49

Actually that rings a bell!

I remember reading that for lower claims you don't pay, as I remember thinking ah yes, at least I won't have to worry about that one!

jellybabe · 16th October 2006, 16:15

Thank god for that,LOL, i was getting a bit worried here.

sbb1979 · 16th October 2006, 16:27

Thank god for that! I don't have £100!

jellybabe · 16th October 2006, 17:08

Not Yet!!

jellybabe · 16th November 2006, 12:37

any news on this one?

sbb1979 · 16th November 2006, 13:18

My AQ went in on 31st October (the last day before the deadline). Haven't heard anything from them yet. If I don't hear anything before the weekend then I'll ask in the court on Monday when I hand in my NatWest AQ.

How's yours going? Anyone else out there - how long did it take from when you handed in your AQ before you heard anything?

jellybabe · 16th November 2006, 13:59

Mine is still not going anywhere.Still have to find the money to file. But hopefully that will be soon.Probably on the 1st Dec.
Watching your thread with interest.
Good Luck.

sbb1979 · 29th November 2006, 14:49

Well, still no news on this one. Haven't heard anything since I handed in my AQ on 31st October. Cahoot filed theirs on 5th November (5 days late) but that's all I know.

Is there anyone else out there at Central London County Court? Are they just snowed under?

sbb1979 · 9th January 2007, 06:44

Ok, update - have been assigned to the Mercantile Court. 30 minute hearing in London on 23rd Jan 2007.

Am glad to hear something as its been almost two months, but advice would be greatly appreciated!!
