Hi - good luck. I claimed back all of my charges from Halifax - have a read of my thread and see how I got on. They were actually very good (apart from taking the charges from me in the first place!!!) I'm also about to tackle littlewoods for a friend of mine and Capital One for myself, so will watch your threads with interest. Best wishes - power to the people!!

Halifax - £2281, successfully refunded all charges after LBA letter & telephone call.
Have been offered the difference between the £20 and £12 charges from Capital One -- am sending LBA for remainder.
GE Money - Received settlement of £441, being total charges requested. No interest though.
CCA'd Bank of Scotland / Blair Oliver Scott to produce CCA Agreements on two Credit Cards - well in default, although still chasing payment!!!
EOS Solutions "ceased action on account" on behalf of a friend.
All in all, quite busy at the moment and enjoying every minute of it

My statements came today (24.207)00, surprisingly quickly.
They're not the easiest to work through but there is a summary attached which details about £170 of admin charges. But I'm sure I was charged for other thing too so I'll have to trawl through the statements.
I'm guessing I could try to claim contractual interest on this amount, at the rate that the catalogue would've charged me.

I'm not at home at the minute so can't check but the address 'Staley Avenue' seems to come to mind... does that make any sense?!
I will check for defo either tonight or tomorrow.
BTW, although I've had the letter and statements from Littlewoods I've heard sweet b*gger all from their other arm Kays

I am also going for Littlewoods and Kays I have sent a SAR and waiting also put in complaint about insurance, I think I have been done there as well. I have just read about sending for CCA agreement, if they can't send one the debt did not happen and it gets written off!!! Hope that is true. All very exciting and giving us a fighting chance. This site is fab.
I have sent one letter for both accounts and I think that is now causing confusion did you do the same?

Re: vick* V Littlewoods & Kays catalogues
if a CCA request is not met after 12[+2for posting] working days, any payments can stop until they provide the requested docs to your satisfaction.
then after a further calander month, it becomes a criminal offence for them to try to enforce the debt or its payment. however, if they do produce within this further month. then payments should resume [thats the way i read it no court order required ].
they could also then write the debt off, if they do, then it should be in writing to you, it does automatically mean it has gone forever if they do not.
they could always re-enforce the debt, but only through a court order & they will look pretty stupid if they turn up at court and say 'ah yes we found it [the agreement].
so read of that situation what you like.
never did get anything BTW but i was after default removal
given up, lifes compass is pointing elsewhere at present.

l received a letter from Kays saying that they would no longer chase payment after l sent them a CCA request this was not my intention l just want my £90 in charges removed l was thinking of writing to them to this affect as im more than happy to pay what l owe minus the late payment charges.
Why don't you write and ask them why they are now willing to write off the debt, if they admit that they cannot find your original agreement then you can then ask for you £90 back as well.
