Mike.

Do not send this! This letter refers to Court proceedings and their defense which you do not have yet.

You must issue them with Court prodeedings before 'any' attempts at negotiating a settlement.

Also, this letter didn't really get me anywhere other than give Mr Jeramiah the chance to try and get a reduced settlement.

My advice now is to issue Court proceedings and then sit back and let them sweat.
You will get what you want, eventually.

Barry, I had changed it to reflect this, don't know if you read it fully?

Mike

Barry031261 · 17th August 2006, 11:53

Hi Mike,

Yes I did read that change BUT I still advice very strongly not to send this.
You will not get the settlement you desire if indeed anything.

You would be much, much better off following the tried and trusted methods that this site advocates. We know it works!

Having read your thread I would say that you have given them more than enough time to comply with your request and you are now in a position to issue Court proceedings immediately.

The ball is then very much in their court and you call the shots. Until you get yoiurself in a position of strength you will get nowhere.

I hope this helps,

Barry

Mike I agree with what Barry has said. I wouldn't send this letter and would advise you to follow Barry's advise.

Okidoki, after taking the above advice... FINALLY got to court today, and filed my claim, parting with the required £££

Hopefully the action will now begin!!!

Talk about slow - rang the court yesterday - it was only issued on Mon - 12 days after I submitted it!

At least it's done now.

Stick with it Mike, patience is the key. It will be a long haul but well worth it in the end. Best of luck

closey · 27th September 2006, 09:54

I second that, it takes time, just stick with it.

GSMGuy · 29th September 2006, 09:15

Filed on 13/09 Date of Service 24/09 - I take it the 14 days runs from 24/09?? Getting excited now - should have my ££ for Xmas

Recevied notice of issue AND notice that acknowledgement of service had been filed this morning...

"The defendant responded to the claim indicating an intention to defend all of the claim"

Pretty std response I think?

I didn't know my doctor had become a lawyer!

GSMGuy · 12th October 2006, 22:14

Hmm, here's a question - Date of service was 24/09, so in my mind that gives 14 days to = 8th oct, which was a Sun... Little girl chopped her finger off on Sun and was operated on Mon, so managed to call court on Tues, 16 days after service to check if defence received as wanted to apply for judgement by default.... Told by the court, that as they acknowledged service and an intention to defend, they actually have 28 days to file defence - is this correct???

Mike

essjaysea · 13th October 2006, 07:29

They have 14 days to acknowledge the claim, and if they do, that will buy them an additional 14 days to file the defence. This is standard procedure for Barclays

GSMGuy · 13th October 2006, 08:02

Thanks for that...
