[traceyrmj]

can someone advse who to put as the defendant on my paperwork? i knwo they are barclays bank plc t/a the woolwich ltd. but doesnt woolwich being a LTD company make them a seperate legal entity and therefore sue-able? as im banking with woolwich im sure i should name them as defendant but the registered address is that of barclays who have been mainly dealing eith my complaint. VVV confused here. not a rush as i havent got to file n1 for a couple of weeks but im getting them all ready and not sure where to go with this one.

Hello there!
The court sent my papers back and asked for some ammendments. I had to put the letters plc after The Woolwich. I used my local branch address. They were happy with that.

Pleae please can someone help urgently. I seem to be coming to the end of the road with my claim against Woolwich/Barclays. They have offered settlement but there is some discrepancy with their figures and mine. Am still unsure really which charges are to be repaid and which are. this is the basis for the discrepancy and i cant understand the codes they use. On the list of charges, these are the abbreviations used - DC/MC/OD/RC/UC/Information Commissioner. I do understand the OD for overdraft, RC for returned cheques and have calculated these. But am lost on the rst, specifically Information Commissioner for which they have NOT added any at all in the final settlement of £2600. i have noticed that none with Information Commissioner written next to it have been refunded to me. Does it stand for 'interest charge' and is not refundable? would be so grateful for clarification so i can agree to an amount with this desperate Dino fellow from Barclays and halt sending my bundle to the courts on the deadline of tomorrow 21st Feb, as my court date is 7/3/07. Million thanks in advance. Hopefully i can get the rsponse on my email address of jacquinfor@aol.com, as i find it hard to get replies from this site

	Are you letting your bank keep your money Are you giving away thousands of pounds?? Many people aren't claiming all of the money they are entitled to when they make their bank charges claims. You have been forced to pay unfair bank charges. Have you forgotten that your bank has charged you inteest on those charges? If you are overdrawn and the bank owes you charges - then your overdraft is made up of charges - money which you bank owes you. Yet you are paying interest to the bank - on your own money!!!

UC - Unpaid Direct debit Charge
MC - Misc Item (Unpaid Standing order charge)
DC - Forced Debit Card Charge
OD - Overdraft Charge (unauthorised o/d)
QC - Forced Cheque Charge (cheque thats guaranteed when no funds in a/c)

	The Direct Debit Guarantee • The Guarantee is offered by all Banks and Building Societies that take part in the Direct Debit Scheme. The efficiency and security of the Scheme is monitored and protected by your own Bank or Building Society. • If the amounts to be paid or the payment dates change, we will notify you three working days in advance of your account being debited or as otherwise agreed. • If an error is made by us or by your Bank or Building Society, you are guaranteed a full and immediate refund from your branch of the amount paid. • You can cancel a Direct Debit at any time by writing your Bank or Building Society. Please also send a copy of your letter to us. This is a term of your banking contract and you can sue on it.

Sorry if this has been covered before but as barclays has now taken over the woolwich can I still claim against the woolwich via barclays?

[CAA_Steve]

You can go via barclays, if you do it over the phone and they try to fob you off with it, tell them they are to go to their real time data team who hold all the necessary account information.

Hi fusewire

Once you commence legal action (will you will at some point have to do), the matter will automatically be referred to Barclays Legal & Litigation at their Head Office at Churchill Place.

You may begin receiving correspondence from both Woolwich Customer Care / Openplan and Barclays Litigation Team.

This is because Woolwich staff have limited duties in respect of legal matters and their authorisation always comes from Barclays Head Office.

I have always tried to deal with H/O - a question of speaking to the organ grinder instead of his monkey

I want to begin reclaiming, who do I address letter to now that barclays have taken over, do I go through barclays or do I address it to old woolwich hq? Do they still exist? Very confused!!
