I filed my claim with MCOL against Barclaycard alomost 4 months ago now, i got sent a letter from the courts which was Barclaycards defense saying my claim was to vague and i need to send in more details a aq would be sent to me to fill out, i never recieved an AQ and was sent from the courts (Cardiff Court) a court date as the 14/08/07 i know quite a few people have had this date as they are doing there cases now in bulk to get them out the way, having won already with Nationwide last year i got a court date it was to be heard but they settled before this date, i was sent a link by someone else with reference to Cardiff court dates etc nearly everyone on there has had the questionnaire and they have filed it out as a prelim, im just a little worried as i've not had one, i have never been asked to back up my claim, could it be that the court decided i have provided sufficient info and there is no need for this? I have cintacted the courts about this but they dont seem to be worried about it do you think is because they know they will pay up before? Please advise.....????
some courts arent bothering to send out AQs, and i think you are right ,they are expecting the bank to pay up before the date. try giving tBarclaycard a ring and see if they are willing to settle,this is a ploy of Barclays,once a court date is set they pay up.good luck,and let us know how you go on.

If you were sent instructions to fill out an AQ then best you ask the courts for one. Dont give Bcard the reason to ask for your claim to be struck out..
