Hi all, a little help if you could. I've had a notice of Transfer of Proceedings and attached was an order stating that "the filing of an allocation questionaire be dispensed with in this case..." Can someone tell me what happens now? Do I need to pay something, write a letter? This notice is dated the 6 of June, are they waiting for me? Anyone, please?

Ok, it's been a while since I posted our progress, sorry about that. So, here is the update. In my wifes case, we've submitted a mcol for £3821 and have received and acknowledgment. In my case, I sent the data access request, that expired. I sent and 7 days "send it now or else". That has now expired. Not too sure where I go from here, anybody?

Ok, help please! I'm at the MCOL site and my claim doesn't fit in 24 lines. Do I have to tell them I want the money in a cheque? You see, we have an outstanding loan with the bank and I want the money back, not the loan paying off.

Right then, we're on the way. The first letter has been sent for my wifes accounts, asking for OUR money back. Still waiting for my statements to come. Will keep posting on our progress.

Hi all, have been going through the FAQ and stuff and the following worries me a little... "If your account is closed, it is likely that the Banks will make an entry which could affect your credit score and make it difficult to get even a debit card in the future..." I started this process as part of an attempt to clean up our credit ratings because we want to buy a house.. If they dump bad ratings on our files, we're back to square one. Any advice welcome.... Thanks.

Hi all, first of many posts me thinks.. My wife and I have held separate accounts (two each) with HSBC for the last 6 years. We started the process on my wife’s accounts about three weeks ago and now have all the statements etc. We've filled in the spreadsheet and calculated they've taken £3243.50 in charges plus £54.12 in interest (think I worked that out right). So the next steps.. send the first request for repayment for my wife’s' accounts. My accounts on the other had are a different matter. They closed my accounts for me late last year as they were overdrawn by about £60 each (because they were applying charges to the accounts!). Then to add insult to injury, because I refused to pay them the charges, they added 2 defaults to my credit file! So I have filled in the data access request and will be sending it tomorrow. I hope the charges on my account add up to quite a lot, I don't suppose it will hurt them as much as those defaults have hurt me, but at least I may feel I got some justice. So here's to the long road ahead (and believe me, I will not be accepting offers! It's not about the money, it's the principle).
