put a little note at top of your lba icon

accepting it as interim payment but say you will pursue your claim for the full amount! good luck!

**bigstuff1000** · 20th September 2006 19:01

Cheers Cillitbanger,
Will do that forthwith and see what they come up with. 14 days for a reply should suffice shouldnt it? cos thats what I intend to give them

Please Help,
Just had Barclays letter back saying they not prepared to give me any more than the £345 of the £745 they owe me. They re-iterated the "Full and final settlement" excuse and put in the wonderfully amusing line"If you do not wish to accept our offer in full and final settlement,it would appear we are unable to reach a mutually acceptable resolution". .They also stated,without me mentioning anything to them,about me persuing the claim through small claims court. I guess they already know whats coming to them but I need to know in the meantime what to do and wheren to get the necessary forms from either online or by mail.
Thanks friends

I think that if you need to ask, you need to slow down and read a bit more...

You need to give them the 14 days from the date on the letter you sent, regardless of the "goodwill" offer. I suggest you use the time to do a lot of reading of the FAQs and have a nose round the Library, as all the links are there. ;-)

Hi All,

Just a quick update to let you all know my progress.
I've just had a letter back from Barclays to say "sorry you're not happy with our offer,but you still aint having all your money back!!!",( Offered £345 of my £745 claim). I'd sent it back saying yes I'll take the 345 but I still want the rest. I'm just about to send them the lba and give them 14 days to reply and have just received my lawpack ready to get on the case!

Let's see what they have to say before I set the ball rolling

Cheers again and I'll keep you posted.

Hi All,

I'm needing help as I'm a tad confused about my next step.
I'm at the stage where I need to send Barclays icon

the lba

but upon reading the letter in the library,it mentions about sending the bank "schedule of charges" and that I should have done so already. Maybe I'm being a bit dense but I dont understand what this phrase means and cant find anything in the faq's about it. Does it mean that I have to write to the bank listing and dating every charge they've made to my account so they are aware of every one or what?

Please help,I'm kind of in a quandry at the moment!!!:-|

Cheers folks.

**victimnomore** · 1st October 2006 19:17

Yes, I think you do need a schedule of charges. In my opinion, the schedule is the foundation of your whole claim. To quote "imported", "You are advised to send a breakdown of your claim to your bank with your request for a refund of charges. You are strongly advised to attached a schedule to your claim with the courts."

But, don't worry. All "the schedule" means is a list of each bank charge which you have already identified as unlawful, with its date, description ("Paid Referral", "Unpaids out" &c.) and amount. You can write out the list if you feel more comfortable with that method, but most of us seem to prefer to use the spreadsheet (simple) from the templates library.

You should send a copy of your schedule (without the interest icon

colums) with your lba icon

.

Later you will need to attach a copy of the schedule (now with the interest columns) to each copy of the N1 county court icon

claim form if you use the paper version, or send a copy to the defendant (Barclays icon

) and another to the court if you have claimed online.

Hope that helps.

Hi All,

Latest update,I've just completed my MCOL and sent it off. Time to give em the big guns.....YIPPPEEEE!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!

**bigstuff1000** · 14th November 2006 18:18

Hi all,

WHOOPS is all i can say!!! I think ive made a mistake on my MCOL and submitted it.
What ive done is; in the "address for sending documents and payments(if different)" section ive put Barclays icon

address. I believe i should have left it blank as it should be my own. Is this right and can i rectify it by phoning the court as the claim is now active and been accepted by the court.
