Thread: BOS- LBA £750 Claim Limit?

I am at the lba stage.

In my previous letter which I sent on the 16/11 I claimed for £888 in overdraft charges. They didn't receive the letter until the 21/11, so I am calculating the 14day period from the date they received and not the date I sent it. I have received a standard letter saying they would deal with my complaint and get back to me within 4 weeks. However I am sticking to the 14 day deadline and am planning to send the LBA on the 5th Dec (Is this ok?)

What I wanted to know is whether I should drop the charges I am claiming in the LBA to £750? I can't find a section on scottish small claims on the forum but a few threads seem to suggest that the maximum that can be claimed in the scottish smalls claim court is £750. Is this correct? If so how do I explain/phrase my dropping the figure I am claiming from £888 to £750 in the LBA?


Thanks in advance for any suggestions/advice

Hi, i am in a similar situation
I sent a letter to BOS on 26th Oct they reciaved it on 1/11 stating they would reply within 4 weeks
sent another letter today 30/11 saying they would make a desion by 28/12
Can THEY really take that long (8 weeks)?

Thanks for that. Hmm. think I'll be sending the lba when their 14 days is up then. They didn't give me a single days grace when they were applying their charges.

Hi thereI am confused! I have received my statements from BOS for 2 bank accounts. Not all the statements are included and it would appear the ones when Halifax became involved are not there. I am assuming they will arrive shortly. From the statements I have, I have been charged almost £2700 in charges (not including the maintenance charges - I will have to add those too!). I did notice that the maintenance charges jumped from £15 to £28 which is absolutely ridiculous.Can somebody please clarify the following:1. In Scotland, do you claim for 5 or 6 years?2. If a claim is high, would you go to summary cause. What is BOS settle on a Full and final settlement meaning you can't claim anything else? What court should it go to and what is the limit. Do you put the claims in all under one claim?3. What about returned items charges? I am claiming these along with everything else, it is a penalty charge. Am I wrong?4. Should I wait until I receive all my statements to make my claim and should I make the claim on a "per account" basis ie current account, credit card, budget account etc.,I thought I had this all sussed but there seems to be conflicting information and I just want to make sure I get this right.Thanks a lotAnnie
