Thread: Barclays paid up without a fight

Hi all

Great site, love seeing the money relaimed going up and up.

I have started to reclaim charges from Barclays for £1395, they have offered £715.

I am unhappy about the amount offered, has anyone any experience of nagotiating for more or do I need to go to court.

Cheers

Hello

There is a letter in the templates library to adapt. You should accept the offer as part payment in your claim, but let them know you will take them to court if need be. Go for it all as it is your money. Can you post in the bank forum under Barclays.Your questions in the future will be answered quickly.

Elo peeps

I have just joined, but finding navigation around site a bit difficult.

I am trying to locate the Barclays users forum ?

I have already contacted barclays for a refund of £1395, but got an offer of £715, I need some advice or others experience in this situation.


Cheers

Welcome.

Yes, it is a bit like Hampton Court maze at first, Barclays forum is here:
http://www.consumeractiongroup.c o....barclays-bank/

Before you start please have a thorough read of the FAQs (there’s a Step by Step guide here too). You should print both of these out to refer to, so as to avoid having to ask basic questions later.

Then look at other threads in your bank’s forum, so as you know what you can expect to happen

You need to spend 2 or 3 days gradually getting your head round everything. If you find a forum/thread/post of interest, save it in your Favourites, so as you can always find it easily. Here’s one to start with, which you should find useful later:
http://www.consumeractiongroup.co.uk...hat-youre.html

There’s a lot to take in, but it’s time well spent and will ensure that you succeed in your claim without problems. Remember it’s not a race, don’t rush, just follow the guidelines one step at a time

This is a self-help forum and you must be prepared to put in time and effort. It is your claim, your money and you cannot expect others to do all the work for you.

When you feel confident that you understand the process and the various stages involved, start a new thread in your bank’s forum and post your progress and any questions there and you’ll get plenty of help

All the info to get you started is here:
http://www.consumeractiongroup.co.uk...se-read-these/

Finally the Moderators and Site Helpers are having to spend far too much time dealing with unnecessary and avoidable errors in claims caused by impatience, ignorance or just plain laziness. If you don’t know what to do next, ask. If you don’t understand something, ask. It might be a dumb question, but it’s a lot easier to sort out than a dumb mistake.

Good luck

Thanks Michael

Thats a great help.

Now there is light.

Thanks

Hi

I have received an partial offer from Barclays of £715 for a claim of £1395, which I am rejecting.

Does anyone have any information about going to court in Scotland to recaim the money and is there a legal bundle for Scottish Law.

Thanks

Steve h3

After refusing an offer for £715 for a claim of F1395, I've recieved a letter stating they would not increase the offer.

I must now start court proceedings, a bit frightening.

I have downloaded the court bundle, but I now live in Scotland and I think thereis a difference in the Law.

Does someone know the differences and how they could effect my case.

Cheers

Steveh3

Thanks for the help Martin3030.

This is not god news for me as I am trying to claim back £1395, do you know of any other method of making a claim for the full amount or can I make two seperate claims.

Thanks

Hi all
I need some advice from anyone who has made a claim in a Scottish court.
Is it true that the max claim that can be made in Scottish small claims is £750, if this is true it is very worrying forme, as I am trying to claim back £1395.

any advice would be appreciated.

Cheers

Steveh3

Hello all

Barclays have refused to pay back in full, so I am about to start court proceedings.

Here in scotland the max I can claim back in the small claims court is £750, which means I will be taking barclays to court twice, what fun.

I will let you all know of my progress and if successful make a payment to this great site.

Cheers

Steveh3

Getting sorted to go to court, if I add the standard interest and my expenses I go over the £750 max.
Is this correct or must the total claim be below £750.
Steveh

Hi all good people
I have a claim for £1080 from Barclays.
I have made the claim for refund.
I have recieved an offer of £715.
I have sent the lba and they would not offer anymore.
I am about to apply to the small claims court.
Has anyone any experience dealing with Barclays through Scottish courts. I am raising two claims. 1, £740+176.85 interest, 2, £340+134.82.
The 1st claim is under the max claim allowed, but when the interest is added it is higher than the max, am i doing the right thing.
Any help would be great.
Steveh3:-?

Hi guys
I really could do with some help, could someone look at this claim and tell me if its valid.
Cheers

I have a date for the court 11/04/07, I contacted the court officer who said that Barclays have contacted them and say they will contest my claim.
This has made me a bit nervous, is this normal barclays behaviour, or am I in trouble.
Steve H

I'm assuming that the 11/4 is the date you filed the claim online? If it is then there's nothing to worry about, this is just standard practice for the banks, normally they'll settle a few days before the actual court date.

Hi Squall

No I didn't claim on line I started the claim over a month ago.

I don't know the procedure do i recieve anything from the court or Barclays before the court appearence.

Thanks for your help

Cheers

Court date was this friday, got a letter from Barclays monday paid in full.
It was so easy they said it was relatively small (£1485) and not cost effective for either party to take the matter to trial.
Ha it may be a small amount to them but not to me.
go on everyone it feels great to beat the B******ds.
Now how do I donate to this site.

Well Done Steveh3
