warrant issued for credit card charges, has this happened to anyone else???
Hi,
I have been trying to reclaim credit card charges from RoBS and they seem to be being quite difficult!
Court action issued 11/9/06, they acknowledged this 14/9/06 but then never did anything. They had 28 days to file a response, which they never did. Judgement was issued against them 11/10/06 but I still never heard anything from them.
I applied for a warrant on Tuesday (17th) and this was Issued yesterday (19/10/06). The warrant cost 55pound, but gets added to what they have to pay me. My original amount I was reclaiming was only 255 but with all the charges has now gone up to 373.41.
DOES ANYBODY KNOW WHAT HAPPENS NOW? Or if they now only have a certain amount of time to pay me??
I didn't think it would get this far as I have had success claiming back bank charges and they paid them in full before it even got to the court stage.
Re: warrant issued for credit card charges, has this happened to anyone else???
Thanks for your replies goforit and lukeyboyuk. The warrant was actually executed at the branch near RoBS credit card office in Southen on Sea, so hopefully things will happen quickly now.
How do I instruct the court baliffs to go and collect the money? Do i do that through Moneyclaim online?

Just to update you all, I still hadn't heard anything at the beginning of this week so rang the solicitors that is named on my court papers on Monday. They said they had no idea that a warrant had been issued against them and asked me to email them a copy!
I sent the email and told them if I didnt have my money by the end of the week I was going to ring the national newpapers and tell them my story... What do you know... a cheque through my door this morning (Wednesday) Woooooohooooo
Its been a long battle, but we got there in the end. Thank you very much to everyone who has helped me with advice. Lisa XXX
