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.
I now have a date for my small claims court I started against Barclays Bank. I have just received it today and do not know what to do next, can anyone help please.
I have a court date for 6th December and am feeling quite nervous about this.
I am not sure what to do next. The form I received today says 'Each party shall deliver to every other party and to the court office copies of all documents on which he intends to rely at the hearing' what do I send ? Please can anyone advise me. Trying to claim £1100 back from Barclays.
I have been using this site for quite some time now, but not being very good on the computer, I often get lost on the site and can not get the information I have seen before, I have only just figured out how to post a thread, its called being old so please be patient with me, I am trying my best! I found this site because I listen to LBC radio, and have now started this small claims thing for my daughters.
I followed your advise and posted a thread on the Barclay forum, or at lease I thought I had, but guess what I can not find it on there. I hope I,m better in court then on this thing.
Thanks for your help,
Regards ValF
Thank you, you are a star. I have found all those things and will study them further tomorrow, too tired tonight. Old people have to go to bed early! Grandchildren none, first one due January 2007, loooking forward to this no end.
The mummy is the daughter with the court date.
Thank you Michael Browne and Lobster, you have made it all so easy for me to do. I very much appreciate your links, not being too bright at computers. It has taken me months to find out how to post a thread ! but have been using the site. I have two Small Claims Court going with Barclays Bank for one of my daughters and one with Lloyds posible two for my other daughter, plus starting one for my son-in law with Abbey who are proving to be difficult getting his statements from, now considering doing an undisclosed claim from them although they did refund £250 to him for just the first letter.
Good luck to you both with your own refunds.
I have printed out Bookworm's Basic Court Bundle ( 3 times)
I have also printed Oft Summary = 3 pages (3 times )
Plus Early Day Motion from the House of Parliament =1 page ( 3 times)
Plus statements where charges appear ( 3 Times)
Attached a list to the front of the statements with date, type of charge plus amount then a total. ( I did not claim interest )
I will copy all correspondence to and from Barclays
Do I have to copy anything else?
This has taken me most of the day, court date is 6th December, I know I have to get this to the court 14 days before, but thought I would get on with it and get it in early. But I dont want to get it wrong at this stage.

I do wish they had made this offer two weeks ago, that would have saved me printing out the court bundle three times, the only consulation is I can recycle them to use against Lloyds in December and February.
It is a great feeling to know you took on the Bank and won.
See you all in the Lloyds section, Hi Ho Hi Ho its off to Lloyds we go.
