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.
Hi sent my Subject access request away on the 20th october, they state i owe them 1029.56 though my limit is £1700 they still demand payment of £600 each month. They have deducted the £10 for the sub request on 3rd november, still awaiting statments for the past 6 years.
Checked other forums should i estimate what the charges they have applied over the years and sent the prelim letter. I only have my most recent statements todate
Willy your S.A.R. should have given the bank 40 days to send you all the information. That time scale has not passed yet so you must wait and then progress to the next stage.
Good luck.
Pam.
If anything I've said helps you then please feel free to tip my scales!
You have failed to comply with my Data Protection Act Subject access request dated 20TH October 2006, I know you received it as you have deducted from my account the sum of £10 for my request on the 3rd of November, You had 40 days in which to comply this has now come and passed on the 12 December 2006, I have attached the copy of the letter I originally sent you.
If you do not comply within the next 7 days I shall seek a Court order obliging you to do so together with damages at the discretion of the Court and without any further notice. This letter has been sent by first class recorded delivery, and therefore should have reached you by 15/12/2006
Yours faithfully,
W
Anything else i should be doing in the meantime, If they dont respond as i live in scotland i shall pursue in the scottish courts, i know i may need to submit 2 claims as you can only pursue for £750 in scotland. How do i calculate the charges without the actual statments.
