Hi

Welcome to the forum. I've not come across London Scottish but one of the other members may be able to help. We also have a search facility that allows you to search this forum or the whole site (this is available from the main index page).

Please do have a read through the FAQ section and the other forum materials. There's a lot of information here and it will take a while to become familiar with it. Please post any questions you have here. If you decide that you want to deal with Barclaryard charges, please post a thread in the Barclays topic.

Hi i have lookd i the search forum for london scottish but cannot find anything can anyone help???

[maxwjz]

London scottish called today telling me they have recieved my Data Protection Act letter and they were now going to send me all charges and transactions in the past six years.
I did not even send them the £10 charge.

[maxwjz]

I have today sent off my preliminary letter to ask them very kindly if they would refund all the money they have unlawfully charged to my account 280 pounds

I will keep this post updated as to my progress.

wish me luck!

Hello,

I used to work for London Scottish in Manchester and Robinson Way (debt collectors) who are also in the same office, as (when I was working there) they were the same company.

Did you have a 'Call 4 Cash' account?, any help, I will be happy to oblige.

Best regards

I have also kindly asked them to remove th default they put o me credit file.

[maxwjz]

Hi - I have just received a reply from London Scottish following my prelim and LBA letters for £568.00 ish (can't remember exact figure - I'm at work) - received a final reply late last week stating t&c you agreed to and basically bog off letter. These charges are for returned direct debits etc from a second charge I had in 2002.

Will start my own thread on this - but will be filling in N1 for this amount next week (near to pay day!).

Will follow your thread with interest as hopefully it should/will mirror my own.

i have not recieved anything from london scottish yet, after sending my prelin letter ,i have now snt a lba on the 18/08/06- lets see what rsponse i get.

[maxwjz]

today i have recieved a letter from london scottish stating that i agreed to ts and cs, and that they will not refund any money nor will they remove the default.
therefore i shall now file a claim near to pay day (end of month).
will keep posted.

Good luck

Hi Maxwjz - have just rang the court and London Scottish have not acknowledged so I have been advised to request judgement. I'm a bit sceptical at the moment but have asked for immediate payment.

Will keep you posted - how are you getting on with yours?

Jackie

[maxwjz]

i am now in a postion to start my claim,however i came across a thread toaday saying that i cannot pursue my claim if i have not sent a list of charges to the bank .which i have not done (now kicking myself).
any help on how i can rectify this,is it as easy as just sending a copy to london scottish,waitin a few days till they recieve it then starting my claim.
help please

[Jacqueline07]

Max - I wouldn't worry too much - have you had a reply at all to your prelim/lba letters? Maybe, if you're worried, send one last letter with a list of the charges on. They will have the information in front of them anyway - I suppose you could just give them another few days to cover yourself. JMHO. Good Luck, Jackie

[maxwjz]

hi jackie,
i have had areply from them stating i agreed to the terms and conditions and basically bogoff.
so i think i will send a list of charges and wait a few days just to be on the safe side,then start my claim.

[Jacqueline07]

Max - I received the same reply and went ahead with the claim anyway. Best of Luck - Jackie

[maxwjz]

thanks jackie
can you tell me what is the difference between a N1 County Court claim form and doing the money claim form.

[Jacqueline07]

Max - none really - the only difference is the N1 you send (post) to the court (with a cheque or postal order or if you go in person, with cash) and the money claim you do online. I did the N1 form (cause I've only an electron card and the court service do not take this debit card). Also using the N1 you have more room for your particulars and you can include a schedule of charges when you send it to the court. If you do the N1 send three copies to the courts, one for them, one to send to LS and one to return to you. I also sent a self-addressed envelope (to be helpful to the court ). There is a template for the N1 on the bank templates. J

[maxwjz]

thanks for jackie.
i'll send off a n1 form think that that will suit me better.
