Thread: Allocation questionnaire HELP!!

Hi, not posted in ages, just had baby girl!
1st letter sent16th June
2nd letter sent 30th June
money claim issued

Now recived AQ, I think I have made mistake, I didnt send Lloyds a Breakdown of charges, and in there defence it states,
The particulars of claim do not comply with the Civil Procedure rules as (amongst other things) they do not show how the sum of £1500 is canculated and the particulars of claim are to vague. The statment of claim shows no reasonable grounds for bring the claim.

Should I send a breakdown of charges to Lloyds solicitors? I didnt include it when I sent letters asking for money back. Or is this just a game they are playing?
Should I tick the box yes to settle?
Can I use my father as witness, or evidence he claimed his money from HSBC. what do I put in the other information box? Help starting to panic!!! my baby is 3 weeks old and had put this to the back of my mind, should of been more clued up. Any help would be grately recived.

Hi Loopyloo and Matt

First things first. Congrats to Loopyloo for a new baby loopyloo.
Secondly, it does seem to be one of Lloyds' solicitors' standard paragraphs - they said the same thing in my claim as part of their defence. Wall....head....
It seems irrelevant whether you gave Lloyds the Breakdown or not - they don't seem to send it to their solicitors. I just calmly sent two copies of the breakdown to the court - one for their records and one to be passed on to the solicitors.

As far as completing the allocation Q - look at the link Allocation Questionnaires - A guide to completion in the templates library. I used it as I went through the questionnaire and found it extremely useful and reassuring, even to the point of saying what to say in additional information box. Pay particular attention to the 'witness' bit, too.

Matt - as far as the moneyclaim on-line is concerned, there is as you say, no opportunity to include additional evidence/breakdown and I think that is why the bank's solicitors come up with the above para which Loopyloo received. Admittedly, you do have to tweek the wording somewhat to get it all to fit in and it took me several go's to get it in. I'm told if you get the actual form itself, it allows you much more than you can do on the on-line form.

Hope the above helps.

Thanks for pointing me in the right direction Rosmary, no worries Matt, just have one more question, can I use my father as witness as he has claimed money from HSBC, or should I just leave this and not complecate it any further? have Lloyds gone to court with any case yet?
baby loopyloo is cute 6lb 12oz and called Isobel

Which Solicitors is it Loopyloo? If it's MJ then it could well be worth e-mailing them before you send the allocation questionaire off, offering them the chance to settle early and save them the £100 fee. It can speed up the process and could help you get your money earlier. I know this has been done on other threads and has worked.
