Hey please don't feel nervous. The first thing you have to remember is that you have done nothing wrong. You are the one suing, you are not being sued. You are not the defendant, they are. All will come good in the end!

Tell them you will accept the offer initially - but for a different reason. Tell them
you need the grand up front because you intend to hand make, using fifty pound notes, the finest cigar in all the land. You will need it to celebrate when the other 14.5K rolls in. Maybe create a signature under your claim so I can keep track??!!

great news lobster,perhaps the judges are trying to subtley persuade the building societies to settle early.let's hope so anyway.he's certainly helped you and by some of the things i've read on this forum you're not the only one judges have given a small helping hand to.

Default Re: Fry V Woolwich Claim No2 (small Claims)

That is really excellent news.

I wonder whether the bank might try and challenge the allocation? Most unlikely - and even more unlikley that they will make the disclosure. I expect that they will attempt to make you larger offers or apply conidtions.

However, with a small calims track allocation and standard siclsoure I would suggest that you are in an unassailable position - insist on your full claim uncodnitionally including all costs and interest calculated right up to the date that the cheque is issued.

If there are any unusual developments please pm me with a link to this thread.

If you happen to get dislcosure then I'll come round personally whereever you are!!

By the way , don't forget that you are bound by the disclosure order as well so you will have to start preparing for this and make sure that it is done properly and on time.

Jonni2bad has some experience of this so pm him for an inital list and pm me when you think that you have put it all together.

Do not leave this to the last moment.
