i also propose we write to the lord Chief Justice to complain about the way the banks exploit the county court system...Always always settling before a court appearance and never disclosing their true costs

It has certainly made me think that if anything gets to a local court level (mine with Abbey looks like it will happen) then we should write to the court, giving a list of court
reference numbers that that particular bank has gone through with and then settled.

It wouldn't make any difference to us if we did get to court, but we know it wont. If we all did that, then hopefully the local judges would kick up a bit of a stink further up the chain - if at all possible.

I don't know if the system works that way, but worth a thought.

This is an excellent idea and we are already preparing to do it. This point has been made on the application grounds for the removal of a stay and also several times to the media.
For some reason the media seems not to have shown any interest.

The correct people to write to about this are the Court Service, The Lord Chancellor's Office and also to your local MP. This is something that I owuld have thought that MPs would find attractively easy to deal with.

BankFodder,

If we are going to do this, would it be simple enough (I know it would be possible, but simple???) to have each bank with a list of cases that have a court number already allocated, and these can be quoted on our letters.

Obviously that list is going to grow, but if we could produce a list of say, 50 for the past 3 months (or maybe even month) for each bank, then it's damning evidence indeed.

Whilst every person (and business) is allowed the choice to defend and then change their mind, we know this is systematic abuse of the system, which is costing the taxpayer thousands each year.

Didn't I see an application narrative for the removal of a "stay" which referred to just such an attached list?

Surely the Lord Chief Justice is head of Criminal courts. Is it not the Master of the Rolls - Lord Phillips in charge of the Civil Justice System?

Hello ..Was wondering about this subject for the last couple of days. Found this but then...the thread seemed to stop pretty rapidly. Was it picked up elsewhere? Did anyone write to Lord Philips? Does anyone have an address? Can I think of any more questions? Sorry...tired... Saj x
