Written by John Kruse, one of the leading experts on Bailiff Law, this consumer friendly guide is essential reading for anyone who comes into contact with a bailiff.
The book is easy to understand and clearly explains the rights
a bailiff has, and also what they cannot do when collecting debts and repossessing goods etc.

Just to let you know that it isnt a good idea to have your court claim number published on a website, anyone can use that info down at your local court i.e to cancel your claim!! All anyone would need to prove your identity is a bank statement!!!! :o
I work for the County Courts and I strongly advise you to remove it from you previous post.

The point being made is that someone else could cancel the claim with the claim number and identification. I don't think that it makes a difference but thought I would throw it out to the rest of the members.

I seriously don't think thats an issue. I don't think even lawyers are deperate enought to start pretending to be other people to cancel the odd claim here and there...... yet
Just the FAQ’s ma'am. Please read 'em thoroughly before jumping in. Cheers
Being a man, I am always right (however I will make no admission of liability if you have misinterpreted my instructions!! ) If you are in any doubt, then consult a professional. All opinions offered on this site are just that, and should not be taken as legal advice.

Its a load of sh** err poo .Your claim can not be cancelled that easy by just your claim number and just where are they suppose to get your idetification from ?
This statement is just laughable

This info is in the public domain anyway, is it not ? Certainly claim numbers have always been in the public domain for Employment Tribunal cases and these often involve higher figures of compensation than are being mentioned here.
If the suggestion is that banks could use this information to helpfully "settle" your claim for you, then they could do this without the information being available on the site. They already have the claim number (it was served on them) and this identifies who you are, whereas this site only identifies your username.
To be honest, and Jan says this on the other thread, the likelihood of the banks actually sinking to this level is zero - the chances for them to mess it up are so high that one single instance would quickly get into the public domain. The publicity would be suicidal, and there would be criminal proceedings against the directors.
Conspiracy theories are great, but this is one that won't gain any credibility.

Just noticed this thread, the claim number on here does provide a link between your username and your real identity for the banks. Wouldn't it be easy for the banks to get a feel of the person they are dealing with from everyones individual threads, treating the super confident legal eagle with slightly more respect than those of us who haven't got a real grasp of everthing that's going on.
I however has just finished studying corporate law, financial law, and any other form of law you can possibly think of......Banks beware!!!

Thank you for your warning. However, we really do feel that the chances of this happening are so negligible as to be not worth considering.
The publication of claim numbers gives credibiility to people's claims, it shows any banks or representatives or their lawyers that the claim is serious - and also the claim numbers are extremely useful when making other related applications to the courts.
In fact two applications have recently been made using information from the Litigation concluded section and it wojld not have been possible to rely on this data without the claim numbers.
I would encourage everyone to let us have their claim details including claim number. It does no one any harm and in fact has cotributed to the success of The Consumer Action Group and the thousands of people who have recovered their money frm the banks.
If a fraudulent application was made in the way that you suggest, the poolice would quickly be involved, suspicion would focus very quikly on the banks thus increasing the pressure on them to start changing their behaviour.
