Are any banks still settling? or waiting test case outcome?
Hi,
I have lost touch with what has been happening lately and was just wondering if any of the banks/building societies/credit card companies are still settling claims out of court?
I know some have applied to put claims on hold until the test case is decided in a few months, but have all done this? or are some still being reasonable?

If you take a look through the **WON** threads they will show you how many wins lately.
There are still quite a few so ignore anyone telling you not to bother at the moment! Just don't raise your hopes.
Re: Are any banks still settling? or waiting test case outcome?
My understanding is that credit card claims are not affected by the test case but, when I filed some papers recently for my bro, a staff member explained that cases were being stayed. I said that credit cards were different but didn't push it as at the end of the day it might be her passing it to the judge.
I hope the judge will have a different opinion if not but if so hey ho the debt can't be enforced for some time. Shame that!
