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.
I have held a number of accounts with Natwest over the years and after going through my statements there are a number of discrepancies not just charges. I had charges refunded on one account on a lba , but did not recieve any response on an lba on a separate account although both were faxed at the same time. I have issued an mcol on this account which has now been acknowledged. On a third and fourth account I have requested statements ( statements for all the accounts were requested at the same time) 9/11/06 and also a copy of a loan agreemant to which i have still had no reply. any advice
I am advising you that 35 days have now passed with reference to the attached correspondence from your office.. A request for a copy of the loan agreement was also requested in my fax of the 9/11/06. I am advising that under section 7 and section 15 (2) of the data protection act that on day 40 I will apply to the county court for non compliance of the act. I advise that I will proceed to recover costs . I would also advise that you pass this correspondence to your data controller and highlight for your reference an order issued to Royal Bank of Scotland on 21/11/2006 at Barrow- in -Furness county court for non compliance.
Received correspondence today, I had requested copy of loan agreemant as interest had been deducted from loan account and from a soul trader account , quite significant sums . They are stating that they cannot find copy of loan agreemant. It was only taken out last October and settled last month and have failed to supply copy statements of the loan. I think they are really dragging their heels with a purpose in mind. I have queried the interest payments on numerous occassions with no response . I intend to reclaim the total interest charges on the loan in with my claim for charges (when the outstanding statements finally arrive ).
Since the refund on the ltd account of £945 i have had further charges of £240 of which £35 was very kindly refunded as a gesture of good will. So once again the lba has been sent , however this time i have stated that should i proceed to court i will be claiming administration costs. 13 letters 6 emails, telephone calls, research etc .
I am still contemplating whether to apply contractual interest on the soul trader account when i eventually receive a complete set of charges. I havent on personnel account but the longer they drag it out the more i am getting annoyed and more of my valuable time is being taken up with their nonsense.
This is just a peronnel view , but if we did start to opt for contractual interest rather than 8% would the banks not speed up their repayments and not want to go near the route of court action. Could a mod possibly respond as I am undecided maybe there are pluses and minisus I would like to hear your view.
Natwest has until today to issue defence on personnel account , spoke wth mcol helpline from midnight tonight i can hit the default button.
I successfully requested statements from oct 1992 to 2000 yesterday. Initially the operator said no chance, so asked to speak to a manager. Rang 0845 711 4477 , I must say that this manager did manage to claw back a degree of credibility in my mind by not spouting rhetoric , he started by going back to 1991 and read out the response which stated the system would only allow him to access the dates from migration (whatever that means) it consequently allowed him access from 1992. However I had stated that I was a member of the consumer action group and was taping the call and that my request for financial history had meant just that. He assurred me that these statements would be with me within two weeks. lets wait and see hey. Its worth a go ,so following the threads on challenging the limitation act.
I also received a letter yesterday requesting I call into branch
"to discuss my requirements once and for all " My requirements are as clear as the nose on my face.
In response to your letter dated 15th November 2006 regarding the charges on your account . I am writing to agree to your request to refund charges totalling £945.
Can I ask you to sign the enclosed copy of this letter as a Full and final settlement . May I also point out that the charges are in line with the banks standard tariff which I believe are fair and lawful and that any future charges will apply.If this is satisfactory can I ask you to sign the copy of this letter where indicated and return it to me in the envelope provided.
Dear xxxx
Please accept this letter as an amendment to my faxed response displaying my signature 15/11/06. Please note the signature was in acceptance of a refund and not to your standard tariff of which I challenge to be unlawful.

Recieved letter from Cobbetts today cpr 18- I faxed this reply along with schedule of charges this relates to personnel account.
I acknowledge the receipt of the defence posted on behalf of National Westminster Bank plc.
I am not prepared at this stage to answer the CPR part 18 Request. I anticipate that the claim will be allocated to the small claims track and would not then expect to have to deal with a Part 18 request since these are specifically excluded under Part 27 unless the court specifically orders me to do so of its own initiative
Furthermore I consider that the CPR part 18 request is intimidatory and I intend to bring the intimidation to the notice of the court. However, for clarity, I confirm the charges I am claiming were applied to the following account:
Account Name:
Account number:
Sort Code:
Please also find enclosed a Breakdown of all charges I am claiming.
Yours Faithfully
Ill keep u updated
This site is amazing !!!! and I thank all involved for support
The Natwest replied to my recent lba by sending me a copy of a letter accepting my previous approach for repayment which did not go past lba
With ref to your letter dated 18/12/06. I refer to your points.
1. The charges applied by the bank are unlawful and my acceptance of a refund does not make them lawful . I find the intention to intimidate that I have signed away my rights which I assure you I have certainly not . As previously advised I have issued a letter before action and I will forward a reviewed schedule of charges .

I think a lot of us may not be on posting on your thread but we are all interested in how it is going. Natwest have to defend on Valentine's day, not the sort of thing you want on that day but hey not too long left.
Deadline for amended defence was today- rang court cobbetts had not responded. Rang cobbetts stated they had not received order from the court requesting amended defence , but did however have a cheque ready to be sent today for the full amount.
Wooohooo, so you're joining the winner's club!! Will give you official congrats when you smell the money!!

received cheque from cobbetts , however it was just short of court and allocation fee. Rang cobbetts who stated they would forward it on. However what I received was a late amended defence stating that part of claim was time barred. I had already banked the cheq- cant understand why settle a couple of thousand then drag it on for the sake of a couple of hundred. I decided to challenge the strike out application as nothing to lose really Quoted sec 32 1 b and or c to challenge limitation act. Will let you know how I get on .
tumble, they're probably too disorganised to realise they've short-changed you, and that the claim is pretty much settled. Anyway, all good fun and games....congrats all the same

Got a "notice of hearing of application" tod way with a date for April, think this is for a strike out of the remainder of the claim which is only quite small by comparison to what they have paid out . Do I need to reply or just wait for the hearing and see if they show up.
Tumble v Natwest ** WON **
