I really need an help.
After few circumstances I had with a builder who he run away and didn't finished the job and other stuff. Unfortunately I have no money left for now to take Barclays to the court. First I need to wait till the end of the month and second I really need money now to go on.
Barclays sent me a letter to offering me £385 as goodwill. I m expecting to give me back from them £1100 but because I have no money left I decided to called them and asking if they could accept my offer of £ 700.00. I left 4 messages but not answer. Of course they won't so I called the freephone and the lady said to me that they won't accept it. Because I need some money do you think that I can accept £ 385.00 and then take them to the court for the rest of the money? please give me some advice. I really really appreciate. For that money I can always set up a court case and survive till the end of this month.
Thanks

on the FAQ says that I can accept and then make claim later for the difference. Any moderator could help me please??

Usually, these goodwill gestures are accompanied by a form to sign which says
"in complete and final settlement".
If you sign it then you are giving up the rest of the claim.
If you don't sign it then the bank withdraws the offer.

Rooster's post says it all. But I'll put it another way. If you take the £385, that's it. If you want the £1100, you have to carry on.
