Read the GLC website
Multiple litigations - the bank won't like this as they can fight
One but they cant fight many
This is the break through and GLC phase 2 will be very very interesting indeed

Thing is m2e, GLC is a charity, so I don't suppose anyone will become a millionaire, and the very fact that we are back to the same old story of banks caving gives rise to the same old situation - they don't want to go to court.
Give it time, and when it's been more thoroughly tested I'm sure that we'll be hearing a lot more about how it's being done.
Obviously it would be best tested in court, but one step at a time.

Re: Sheriff puts Bank of Scotland to proof on bank charges
No t5hink its two - Sharp v Clydesdale, as well (now) Reid and BOS. Walls, last I heard, was heading to the ECHR on the basis that the refusal of the Scottish Legal Aid Board to grant legal aid when the Bank had taken the case out of summary cause (exposing the claimant to unlimited expenses if they lost), was a breach of Human Rights. Like many ECHR cases, goodness only knows when there will be an outcome.
Taking Sharp and Reid together with the news earlier that GLC is moving toward stage 2 where multiple cases will be brought, presumably on the same bases as Reid and Sharp, is significant progress. Clearly the banks - as they often dont - didnt want to take their chance on their day in court. Having used a variety of scare and delay tactics, they have decided to fold. It would be interesting to learn what issues were raised for Sharp and Reid, but given the agreement that has been struck with the bank that is impossible. However, when multiple cases start going in (and not just in Glasgow?), strategies of delay and causing concern, simply wont work and the banks will either have to decide whether to be dragged through court any number of times to either lose or give up at the entrance to the court (which is going to impose costs on them no matter what), or do the decent thing and return the money they have in effect stolen to their customers.
