Has Egg actually turned up to court?? looks like they will for hubby.
Hello,
My hubby has a claim against Egg for charges and they are counterclaiming for costs incurred when they made him close his credit card account and repay the balance. The court date is Tuesday and it looks like they are intending to turn up!!
Yikes...hubby is not interested as he has let me write all letters and file claim etc but will not go to court. Do you think Egg will turn up? Has anyone faced them in court yet?
Re: Has Egg actually turned up to court?? looks like they will for hubby.
It obiviously makes sense for them to go to hearings but whether they are a good barrister or not only time will tell - plus they have to have the law on their side! and they haven't, so it seems.
Even the best barrister in the world can't make a silk purse out of a sow's ear.
Egg Data Protection Act Statements arrived. On hold.

well they failed to turn up to mine and they seem to be missing lots of deadlines etc I think you can be nominated to speak for your hubby if you like!?
Re: Has Egg actually turned up to court?? looks like they will for hubby.
I have just had a call at 6.15 asking if they could do case over the phone , they must be thin on the ground anyone else had this experience he threatened me with their costs. I have said I do not agree as I have taken time from work any advice...It looks like they are thin on the ground
Re: Has Egg actually turned up to court?? looks like they will for hubby.
As you didnt attend i dont suppose you know how they broke down this claim.
The reason i ask is because i used to have an Egg account which i defaulted on. But is now cleared.
Im currently waiting for my S.A.R - (Subject access request) documents.
I imagine they will try the same thing with me, and try to counterclaim for closing the account.
Also, now that judgement has been made in Egg's favour, does that mean you have a CCJ on your record? (unless you pay in 28 days) ofcourse.
Re: Has Egg actually turned up to court?? looks like they will for hubby.
Hi,
I had never defaulted on my account. I put in a claim then was about to pay off the card and close the account anyway when they sent me a letter demanding i repaid the account as they were terminating my agreement.
Apparently their costs for doing this were £120.
Re: Has Egg actually turned up to court?? looks like they will for hubby.
Have you written to the Judge/Court, explaining as to why you could not attend.
I feel sure that if you were able to provide a VALID reason/explanation for non attendance to the Judge, then perhaps? you may be able to get another hearing.
It's worth a try
