small claims - which court?

cloud · 5th July 2006, 04:33

Hi all,

Still a bit unsure about this.

Basically, I'm chasing the Nationwide for £300-ish. I'm in Aberdeen, Scotland. Do I chase the Nationwide through the English or Scottish small claims court?

Cheers,
Cloud

If it's only for around £300, then you'd be better off raising it in a Scottish Court near to you. I ahve over £4000 to claim back in the one go, so I'm followingthe progress of others who are based in Scotland but claiming through an English court. (Scots small claims only go up to £750. And the next step up "Summary Cause", goes up to only £1500.

Chase the money through Scottish system, to go through English system you have to have contact address in England. I am currently doing this but using my Sister's address, she lives in Yorkshire.
