matt -v- Halifax Credit Card **WON**

**mattyb13** · 1st August 2007 10:19

Hi, Im new to the Halifax icon

forum.

I have had a successful claim against Lloyds icon

for just over £4k. I have also started a 2nd claim v lloyds and also a claim on behalf of my wife v lloyds.
I am also due in court in 3 weeks v Abbey icon

but as this and the Lloyds cases look likely to be stayed I thought now is as good as time as any to start my credit card claim.

I have sent my SAR icon

off this morning. I have had a look through some of the Halifax threads.

Lloyds were pretty differcult to deal with and from what I have read it seems Halifax can be too.

Any advice is greatly received.

Thanks,

Matt.

Some like me have found Halifax icon

a complete roll over - but lately it seems they are digging their heels in - just keep to your timescales, ignore fob off letters and you will be fine

Oh and welcome to the Halifax house

I might add that it is my current account that was a roll over - my credit card is still ongoing.

Well I sent my prelim off on Jan 16th and they sent me a standard sorry to hear about your complaint. I thought to myself yesterday I will do my lba icon

this weekend. I got home today and there was a letter from them offering a settlement on the fees that they have taken above £12. this worked out at £417. I have deceided to accept this offer as my credit card balance is £404. So it will be nice to wipe off my balance and get rid of a debt.

I know some people will say I should go for the lot but I am happy to get rid of my card after just having to send 1 letter.

Thanks guys,

the test case really took the wind out of my sails. I had won my case against Lloyds icon

and had a court date v Abbey icon

for nearly £4k then on the day of my case I had a letter saying case stayed ARGHHHHHHH.

So this seems like a nice little win without having to go to court and fill in aq icon

's and file court bundles.
