Thread: gillett vs shabbey

hi all
i need some advice i sent my prem letter on 03/03/07 and let the 14 days go and then sent the lba on 18/03/07 to which we reiceved a complaint leaflet (which is nice)no mention about the charges what so ever since then we have had threating letters asking for the checkbooks and cards which we handed in(no love lost) i spoke to a person called becky this morning as reguards to getting my money back (thought i ask outright just incase they said yes sorry have a full refund for a laugh)becky told me that they decline of giving monies back so i informed her i am taking them to court i have filled in and printed 3 copys of the n1 forms and including the s69 interst and going to courts on monday to hand in.
the advice i need is when i win i do not want the monies to pe paid into their a/c i want a cheque so i can put it in the parachute a/c how do i go about this and also since i started this action Abbey have continued to put charges on this a/c even tho i have told them it is in dispute so how do i go about getting these extra charges back, in 3 months they have taken me well over my overdraft by 600quid do i start new action for these charges or is there a way i can add them to the existing claim, what im actually hoping for is that when i win the intial claim they will know i am seriuos and they wipe off the extra 600quid, anyway i will keep posting and good luck to you all this is a superb site and dont let them get away with it becuse its your money not theirs!!

If you have submitted your N1 claim form already, it is better to finish with this claim before commencing another case for the current charges.

You are not limited by the number of claims you can make. You can begin a second claim after your current one is completed with the same bank.

thanks for your reply bennyowen
i have not submitted the n1 forms as yet they are all completed i was going to submit them monday morn is there another way round it to get the extra charges Abbey have put in the a/c or continue down the route of doin 1 claim settling that and then immediately start a fresh claim what would u do in this situation many thanks

You can amend your claim right up to filing at court. Just re-do the N1 and amend the schedule of charges adding the new penalties. A faff, but worth it for £600

thank you michael browne
i think i will take your advice and get all the charges upto date and do new spreadsheets and new n1 forms and present them monday to the court many thanks

good morning to you all
i recieved this morning the notice of issue from the court i am really surprised at how quick it came i went to the county court tuesday afternoon and recieved notice on friday morning it will be interesting to see which route shabbey take (the most auckard one for me )they have until 4th may I say bring it on shabbey its time for the little man the banks are quick enough to take your monies and put you in debt but trying to get it back they will push you all the way good luck to you all dont let them get away with it i will continue to post and keep you informed of my progress

hi to all
the situation at the moment is i have recieved my AQ and completed and got to send in tomorrow with the 100pound fee i have got there defence and ive seen on this great site that it is pretty much standard issue, everything seems to be going ok so far apart from one thing i have an overdraft of 1250pounds and with recent charges it has run upto 1800 pounds now i do have a parachute a/c which we opened before we started proceedings now i am pursuing 3800 pounds and i submitted the n1 forms on 17th april i told abbey the a/c would be cleared when i recieved the refunded charges they replied giving me the old rubbish of terms and conditions and then shortly after recieved a letter demanding back the cheque books and cards of which i had no problem so i cut the cards and cheque book up and returned them to our local branch now i started proceedings with ashford county court on the 17th april i have recieved a letter from a debt collecting recovery service working for abbey to pay the balance of 1800quid and any other charges,i am going to ring these people tomorrow and let them know that i am taking abbey to court for bank charges and that the account is in dispute and is going to court am i right in thinkin it has to be resolved at court before these people start knockin on the door the letter i recieved is dated 23may over a month after i started the claim is this bully boy tactics from abbey?? i would like some advice so i know where i stand thanks

Don't phone, keep everything in writing. Send this:

ACCOUNT NUMBER: XXXXXXX

Dear Sirs

Re: Account in dispute

I am writing to clarify that I am currently in the process of requesting a refund of bank charges unlawfully made to my account.

This is now the subject of a claim (No. XXXX) in the county court.

I note from your latest correspondence that you are proposing to issue me with a Default Notice on this account - I need to make you fully aware that I am disputing the sum owed and, as such, you must refrain from any further action until this dispute is fully resolved.

If you do not stop this default action and proceed by making any adverse comments on my credit reference files, I shall be forced to take legal action against you under the Data Protection Act 1998.

Yours sincerely,

thanks michael

i have another couple of questions just finishing off my court bundle and i see that i must send copys of bank statements as well as list of charges the thing is i have loads of statements and microfiche must be a 100 pages at least have i goto photo copy the whole lot 3 times or can i just do a few copys so the judge can see that the charges are going out on the dates and cross reference them with my list of charges.
the other question is i read somewhere that i can claim for my time preparing the bundle @ 9.25 per hour is this correct and what is the max allowance,as you are aware i have a preliminary hearing on 29th june (friday)and i am trying to get it sorted as much as possible as we go on holiday on 18th june and come back on 25th june and i dont really want to take paperwork to turkey wife would not be happy
