Smile Re: Is your court dispensing with the Allocation Questionnaire?

Hi everyone. Quick qestion. Is the mentioned draft order all I have to send at the moment to the court, that 1 sheet? Also I know this may be a bit thick to ask, but on the draft order it says that the documents will be supplied in 14 days. I take it as its a draft, then these will not have to be sent until the actual A&Q is completed, is this correct?

I know I'm a bit dull, but I just want to make sure I'm doing things right.
I have just had a notice of transfer of proceedings saying that the A&Q may be dispensed with and just printed out nudge 1 to SC&M, which I will send tomorrow.

Please help

That means that the Judge has rejected Lloyd's defence, and assuming Lloyds is your bank, that pretty much means you win. I think

Obviously, wait for the official notification from the court, but I think you've got it in the bag.

Hi
I am at the same stage as you and have just sent nudge letter no.1 to Barclays solicitors along with schedule of charges, I have also sent letter and draft order to my local court. Once the court has issued the order and I am presuming I will receive notification of this, then I have 14 days to get info together as per draft order. Hope this helps and if I am wrong in any way hope someone out there can confirm all this...

Good evening everyone. I have received a 'Notice of Pre Trial Review' instead of an AQ This is to be heard in Cambridge 30th July.

This seems to be slightly different to everybody else.

Then it says 'Please note: This case may be released to another Judge, possibly at a different Court'
So what does all that mean I wonder?

Your welcome......

As for the waiting, I'm afraid you just have to get used to that and be patient as they tend to drag things out for as long as possible... why.... I do not know.... as it is quite clear who is in the wrong!!!

Good Luck.

Cheers again Jas. I have just posted a big letter on my thread mate, which I feel that people will get bored reading. I have had a stupid reply from Lloyds today, which looks like a reply to my first letter send in January. Have a look if you need some sleep enhancing material.

Got a date now for a Prelim hearing at the start of July. Starting to brick it to be honest.

Looking through Gary H's thread on different court proceedures and he's stated to take a few documents with me such as draft order, statement and a few other things. My printer is feeling really poorly at the moment with all this work! God help it when I have to do the bundle.

Exactly how I felt last September with my claim fro The Co-operative, but I won and what a feeling of euphoria.

When you've done it once, you'll look for other accounts to claim from! I've since claimed on my 2 daughters' behalf (both settled), and now busy with daughter no. 3's claim (Lloyds, a bit tougher). Also PPI on a loan, and c/card charges.

Woohoo!! Gettem tiger!!

wolverhampton seem to have dispensed with AQ - but have nothing on letter telling me what to do next. Lloyds seem stubborn.

Yes, they are.
Portsmouth didpensed with AQ and then eventually (after about a month) wrote to invite me to a "prelimimnary hearing" because "to enable disposal because there is no real prospect of success by the defendant" (Lloyds).

Hi Guys this is my first post so if iam going over previous questions sorry
Got the first letter today from northampton court transferring to hastings it also says that the filling of an allocation questionnaire be despensed with... so do i now pay the fee to hastings as my claim is for £3200.00 ...? and also send my first nudge letter to lloyds...? do i send a copy or all nudge letters to the court aswell or keep for my bundle....? shall i start to get my bundle together ie downloading reccommended documents ....? The defence has been made in 9 points is this the standard defence if not would a copy be of any use to to site...?

sorry for all the questions Cheers Graham

PS lloyds have been charging me £30.00 ago in my private acc (which i am claiming for) but only £15.00 on my business as penalties does this not show inconsistency with there charges...?
