Hi i recieved a full settlement no fuss no argument just make sure you recieve your payment before withdrawing your claim good luck

Hi People just reading your thread...i agree with Path_finder my court date is today the 29th June at birmingham i e-mailed inga Kirkman on Tuesday26th of June, Inga immediately replied stating that due a backlog she has not replied Dear Sir, Could you please contact me urgently today on . You can not have two I also have not received any notice of the listing of this matter before the Court on 29 June 2007 [ i replied by e-mail and she asked me to scan in the court papers once i did she settled straighaway and sent out a settlement letter in the post i recieved it on wednesday, i sent notification to court on Thursday to withdraw my claim, i suggest you e-mai inga and take it from there good luck:cool:

Thanks tonif i will enjoy my victory Banks have been getting away with this for years i don't know how some of the bank staff can live with themselves..

thanks James33 i wish i had found this site alot earlier it would have saved me so much effort and time thanks yet again for the hook up

great News Inga replied and directed me to a claire flectcher she settled my claim and said the settlement letter will be posted and if my account is closed a cheque will follow within days, I am elated that this happen but i am a bit aprehensive because even though my account is closed i still owed abbey money which i am paying of via debt agency so i am worried they are going to pull a fast one and offset amount i have claimed back with what i owe them, as this happened to anyone

Hi James33 i took your advice and i e-mailed Inga @ abbey i told her that my court date was the 29th she responded immediately and stated that She did not have a clue about this and asked me to e-mail the court details because they have had such a backlog..she said she would atempt to make me an offer i wish i did not e-mail her now because i would have gone to court and won outright, anyway its 13.39 i will await her response

James33 Thanks for your quick response i recieved the court date notification on friday the 22nd of June !!!!! i have my statements, i have collated all the charges and all the correspondance that i have recieved from Abbey and FOA regarding my complaint/claim and also the offer that Abbey made via FOA which i will be sending tomoroow recorded delivery to the court , however i will be sending an e-mail to abbey as you suggested, I am still worried because i have not heard anything from since they sent the defence, which was a standard defence letter, Once i recieved there defence i wrote them a letter that i will still be pursuing the claim stating that how could they say that i was not liable for any monies claimed when they made an offer via the FOA, i never got a response from them, anyway thanks for the advice and i will let you knowe the outcome

james i have not sent a court bundle!!! do you mean sending my evidence to the court 2days before the court date also i was not a OA form because they said that it was not needed in this case

thank you very much
