I think there's something wrong somewhere in the set up that is bringing them all here - as you say, there's been a flood recently!

I suggest you start a new thread in the relevant forum for each of your claims, or it will become very confusing very quickly as each develops at its own rate.
Don't give them another 14 days. When your lba runs out, proceed to court then. If you want to reply, state that only a FULL refund by date of expiry of LBA will stop you from filing. Otherwise, you are just giving them extra time.
Apologies to people who I was in the process of helping, I may be gone some time.
Received a letter from DG Solicitors, on behalf of HSBC - Marbles, this morning stating HSBC are prepared to offer me the full amount. HSBC didn't even wait the 14 days from me submitting my claim. RESULT ...
Don't inform the court that it's been settled until you have proof of the money being returned (cheque in hand, money in bank or balance reduced on card - check on line if you can). Please also fill in the survey (link at the top of the page).

Have completed survey and will donate when the money is received.
Thanks to everyone who has given advise on this site, I have managed to to have my money returned without having to ask for too much individual help as I have found almost everything I needed to know by reading advise on other threads.
So thanks again to you all and this wonderful site.
Can you please add SETTLED IN FULL at the end of the title to this thread.

Money may possibly have been credited to account now but haven't had statement confirming it yet. Just applied for internet banking, so hopefully will be able to check it in the next couple of days. According to Marbles/HSBC solicitors it has been paid now and they have advised the court, who have sent me a form to complete asking if I wish to proceed with the claim.
