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.
Having had such a positive result earlier this week I'm keen to press ahead with pursuing some of the other charges the bloke has had applied to various accounts over the last few years, starting with Capital One (erm, among others - I've had my most productive Sunday afternoon for years!) :O)
S.A.R. will be off in the post in the morning - wish me luck, and I'll keep you posted!
Prelim sent for £340 on 25th - I chickened out on the CI in the end, but am spending all my spare time reading up on it for the next one (look out MBNA - heh!)
lba dispatched on the 8th and was v. promptly delivered to cap one on the 9th Nov., and a desultory - oops, I meant 'goodwill' - offer of £136 received this morning.
As with other threads I've read, they've offered the difference between the original charges of £20 and the £12 default fees 'the OFT believes are likely to be fair'. Bless.
So, will be sending the 'thanks but I'll still be going after the rest' letter off this afternoon (not that I expect anything back before in the meantime, but must think positive!), and then it looks rather like I'll be off chez MCOL again...
