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.
Have just sent 1st letter to RBS claiming for my closed business account. Applied for statements and paid proverbial £10 for them.
Old manager emailed me yesterday when letter would have been recieved, firstly to ask more details so he could obtain statements for me so I replied I've already had them over a week, and one today asking if he could have my statements or if |I can copy them for him or if he should obtain his own.
Guess what I replied!!!!!!
Thought it would have been passed to their legal or customer service dept, but obviously not.

money claim online made on the 10 may, issued on the 11 may and acknowledged from the bank on 12 may, not heard anything 7 days to go and counting down, any advice?
do i need to start getting ready for court
Title changed - checking the thread, the bank gets 14 days from issue date to acknowledge claim, and if they do, a further 14 days to file a defence.
My guess is you will hear from the court, as they will have been notified of the bank's defence, assuming they file one. Alternatively they may just cough up beforehand.
Sorry that this thread was not picked up earlier...it seems to have escaped our attention...

yes i have. after nothing in the post i have had to wait until i finished work to be able to check my email. the 28 days is a bit unclear as when you can claim a default, do you have to wait 28 days clear or can you claim on the 28th day?
I would think that they mean a clear 28 days but don't know...not up to that yet.
Wonder if you can input it at 00.01 ????

I'm with RBS and a newbie here, I'm following your thread in anticipaiton!!! Just about to send my DPA off in the morning. I've had £624 of charges since Jan 04 so cant wait to get the rest of my statements back as you can at least double or treble that figure!! The most annoying thing with RBS is you can go overdrawn by just a few pence and then get charged twice! A £28 maintenance charge AND a £30 referral charge!!! Then to top it all off, you then get charged because their charges take you overdraw??! Ridiculous! I really really HATE RBS with a passion and its time to get them back
Sorry, just had to get that out my system! Anyway, I wish you the best of luck!!
