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 all
i have today received a letter from a & l saying they intend to defend the claim i have submitted to court(which is standard judging by other threads)
they have said that i am only entitled to claim back 6 years ,as i know.
when i started claim i.e december 2006.
however they are saying i can only claim from 5th feb 2001 (when they acknowledged court claim from county court.
is this correct and are they likely to defend on a technicality or is it just another bluff as it is just a month over 6 years and was only a guideline any way.
I would also be interested to know about this as I have exactly the same date ie Dec 2000, as that is when I asked for my statements. I am waiting for the response to lba. I know that I will have to go the Court Route.
So would be interested in the response to this, as I can then leave out the charges from Dec 2000 if I have to, when I claim
I would definately like to know about this. By the time MCOL all goes through most of my charges will be over 6 years.
The only thing I can find is on the following website which states that for sums recoverable by statute, th time limitation is 6 years from the date on which the cause of action accrued. If I'm reading this right it's not good news!
