    Default Successful Claims

    If you have been successful in your claim with Abbeyicon but the thread title doesn't show **WON** or **SETTLED** can you please send a private message to one of the mods to change the title and put it in the successes sub-forum.

    This will give other users an at-a-glance guide to other cases that have been won and may just give them that extra little bit of confidence needed to pursue Abbey themselves.

    If you can't PM a mod for whatever reason then just reply to this thread.

    IF YOU HAVEN'T WON DO NOT POST HERE. POSTS WILL BE DELETED WHEN THREADS ARE MOVED

    Smile Re: Successful Claims

    Hi All,

    Just to give anyone still awaiting their claim a bit of a boost - I had a court date re Abbeyicon on 11th of this month. I received a letter from the Abbey this morning to say they will SETTLE IN FULL. This includes the court money I had to pay and the 8% interesticon added making a total of £3611.50.

    Just waiting for them to pay the money into my bank account now and I will make a donationicon to this site - what a FANTASTIC site. Many thanks.

    So keep at it - it really does work!!!

    Fantastic news... Jobs a good'un then.

    Just a quick question.... How long after you started the cclaim in the court did it take? Abbey have to file defence by 16th of jan for me (they havent yet and its only a day away. Just want to know so I can plan ahead for any eventuality.

    I have a hearing date of the 16th Feb. I sent in the aqicon and asked for disclosure but the Judge does not appear to have ordered this. In cases where Abbeyicon paid out was it because the juge had ordered disclosure?

    Angry Re: Successful Claims

    Hi Guys,

    My daughter has been ripped of by Abbeyicon, the Bank Charges have nearly sunked her. After many letters they still refuse to make a sensible refund!! the small claims court seems the only answer now.

    I have a Court date set for the 28th of Feb, still no sign of Abbeyicon settling the claim. Has anyone here actually gone to court yet? as i am getting a little concerned that i will have to go to court.

    Hey travellingmap
    Don't worry - you sounded like me a couple of weeks ago - I hadn't got a court date either - but then I got a check for the full amount owed!! Good Luck - it seems like a long haul but you'll get there - without court!

    For anyone worrying about going to court, don't worry! I was a bag of nerves waiting for my court date this coming Monday. Arrived home to a full settlement last night! They haven't got a leg to stand on, so keep going! Just make sure you follow the step by step instructions on this site and get all your bundle sent off to the Court and a copy to Abbeyicon and hey presto, just sit back and wait.
