xrchris v Cahoot

[Tetsugaku-San]

well I'm not certain but I'd say keep sending it to the friars house address, that's the one they list for everything isn't it

Oh you could always check the other XXX Vs Cahoot threads

Anyone else know?

I thought I replied to this yesterday

Anyway 14 days is 14 normal days

I would send it to the address which the brush off letter came from

Sorry a bit of confusion - in my other post i was asking about if you had waited 14 days on your claim as i was under the impression you had sent your Prelim a week after me.


On the addresses - i wrote to Cahoot, the reply came from Abbey at the following

Banking Specialist Team
PO Box 5885
Milton Keynes.

and the complaint leaflet gives a different PO Box no in MK.

Right just been looking back, and you are sorta right, My prelim was due on 4th April and I sent LBA on 2nd, but for some unknown reason the address that I sent it to has a redirect on it and as of today it still hasn't been delivered. But yesterday I got my standard complaints letter like the one you received

Not sure Chris sorry mate but got a question for you.

I have not rec my stats yet coming up to 40 days, did they post you yours??

[xrchris]

Just posted to me by standard Royal Mail, not recorded or signed for.

How you going on this Chris, you must be due legal action by now

[xrchris]

I have been away on holiday so have waited until i get back before i send my LBA which i am just about to send.

You will see most of this is the same.

I sent my LBA to BOTH addresses:

The Cahoot Friar's House address (if you use the PO BOX version it re-directs)
The Abbey Charges Team in London (TS6 B03)

Also later on when you get the "we didnt see the charges as it's a different department...we require this information prior to going to court..." you will need to send the charges and interest calculation you are using again.

They are trying to be smart - so send everything in triplicate to all concerned - covers your back in the long run.

Hope that helps.....

Ahh Chris, so we are about the same in the process, as I am on Holiday in 16 days time and I will send my MCOL when I get back, so Cahoot have got a nice long period where they think I have given up, only to hit them with court action

[xrchris]

I have been lazy and done nothing but out of the blue i received a letter from Cahoot saying they had completed their investigations and would offer me a goodwill gesture of £145.00!

They said i can go to FOS office. Not sure which way to proceed now FOS or court?

[ukmp3]

So let me get this straight.... they owe you £240 and are offering £145 as a "gesture of goodwill"?

Write back to them pointing out that if they wish to settle the matter with out wasting the courts time then they should forward a payment of £240.00, give them 7 days to do so and confirm to them after that time you shall proceed to court for full recovery.

Don't say anything else... period.

[xrchris]

Worse than that - they owe me £340.

Going to write and request full amount otherwise court plus costs and interest to pay then.
