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.
right a really important question, Ive done three banks and won them all, now onto my credit cards.......ive done the spread sheet for one of them,
Now the question, CAN I CLAIM BACK ALL THE interest THEY HAVE CHARGED ME SINCE THEY HAVE BEEN APPLYING CHARGES, OR JUST THE CHARGES THEY HAVE APPLIED ie LATE FEE, LETTER CHARGES, ETC!
This is important and i know all you guys are really busy, but a quick response would be greatly received
You are entitled to reclaim any interest that has accrued on the penalty charges, only.
Any other interest is basically a charge for lending you the cash.
i.e. the interest that you would have been charged if there had been no penalty charges is not reclaimable.

If your claim gets to MCOL stage, your MCOL claim form should specify that the amount you are claiming is charges + credit card interest (the interest that was applied to your charges) and ideally state the individual amounts, before adding court interest.
That spreadsheet caused me a few problems yesterday. Initially I thought I'd done it correctly but was unsure so this morning sent the prelim off without the charges interest added.
