Thanks Jules, but I think the standard wasted costs orders in the announcements covers it very well and of course there is loads of extra advice for YB claimants in the stickys, plus responses on peoples threads. For those interested and may have missed it this is a link to the standard wasted costs info. Personally I prefer it as it carries no risk as the case is closed and is based on an actual court order. The suggestion you have linked to is a bit too aggressive and risky for my liking Jules, but I'm sure that you know I tend to err on the side of caution.
When the Liberals and Conservatives were in opposition they both agreed that banks should pay back high bank charges to customers. Nothing seems to of happened since they came into power as a coalition. PPI insurance has been sorted now they should turn their attention to bank charges and help customers get exorbitant charges refunded.

Just wondered if it could be applied to live cases , I understand it is risky and would not personally recommend it . It was an idea open for opinion other than my own
It might happen in the future Jules, and I'm sure some will want to try it now, but for now I think the order in the templates library is safest. It's always a good idea to look at all the options, and when they have been tried and tested for a while, advice on this may change. It's how the process evolves and improves.

The template wasted costs order is a big step forward with these timewasters one I will be using myself for the cases that were settled back in January.
