Have you followed the process and sent the 2 letters before giving the bank 14 days on each to respond?

Is this Monument or Goldfish? You are starting a new thread for every question which makes it impossible for people to see what stage of the process you are at?

Is the letter you are waiting to send the LBA?

You don't. Once you have filed at court 14 days after your :LBA, and the bank has acknowledged and filed a defence and you have returned the AQ, the court will set a hearing date.

Ok, I have read again this page and been told by a friend that i should also claim for interest charges.

I have found and downloaded the Simple-charges-calc.xls but this works out the interest at 8%, but there is interest for cash and merchandise, the interest is not always the same rate, i mean it is 1.825 on one statement and 1.833 on another and 2.5 on other ones, it varies from month to month.

how do i work it out for these types of interest?

is there a chart on the site to work out this sort of interest, and also which one should i use.


Thanks

Go back here:

and click on 'Vampiress Chamber Of Spreadsheets'. You will need to create a Google a/c to access them.

Me, giving advice on spreadsheets? It'd be the blind leading the blind

Your best bet is to ask for advice here:
