Angry lloopylou v the woolwich

I have. today, sent off my Data Protection Act letter. Another members posting states the woolwich closed her account, so I've opened another one elsewhere and already transferred all my dd's etc. I feel excited but very nervous, but worked out they owe me in excess of £1500. I will hopefully know the true figure shortly. They rejected my Mortgage payment yesterday because it would have taken me 6p over drawneven though i get paid weekly on a friday......the final straw.

Default What Now!!

I've been trying to chase up the Woolwich after sending my Data Protection Act letter and they are saying they haven't received it, Does this mean I have to start all over again or do you think they are trying it on. I'm going to contact the Post Office on monday to see if the PO I sent for the £10 fee has been banked. Its been 21 days since I sent it.

Default Re: What Now!!

wait until you have checked if the payments gone through.... if it has and if it hasn't send a second one stating the date of the first and tell them how many days it has left to run..... legally if you posted it by royal mail then they received it.

But for your own peace of mind I'd send any new letters by recorded, then they wont have the option of 'losing' them....

send important ones by special delivery - its £4 well spent IMO.

My first Data Protection Act letter was sent recorded and for two weeks they were saying it was lost - (so I sent another ) then suddenly they said it was delivered the day after it was sent !

Default extra charges....

Hi guys, the woolwich have made another couple of charges since I started my attempt at claiming them back. Can I tag these on the end, can anyone tell me, or will I have to start again?

Default Re: extra charges....

All depends how far you are along hun, if you havent submitted your claim to the court you can still keep adding charges on as long as you list them on your summary of charges that you send with each letter or LBA. Once things have got to the court stage you may have to put in a new claim at a later date. Well this is the information i have read on the site so far so im sure thats the case, if still unsure look on the FAQ as im sure they will have something about that on there somewhere.

Good luck

Default lloopylou v Woolwich

Well, They haven't answered either of my LBA's. I sent them recorded delivery so I'm about ready to start my court action in the morning. Looking forward to it, in fact. Wish me luck, although it looks like a walk in the park.

Claim for £967.50 + £133.08(int) = £1100.58 + costs.
