thanks!

hi again,rung the court today,they said that this short hearing is what our local court is now doing for bank charges,there is no need for me to do a bundle and it is a preliminary hearing.shame its such a long time off.hopefully theyll settle before.has anyone else had a court hearing date like this?

hi,im on my 2nd claim now as i split the 1st to keep it in small claims,i got my defence from abbey about 2 weeks ago for this 2nd claim and got a court date a week later,its 2 mths off,but it goes quick!last time,abbey settled a week before my court date,its really exciting!!the court bundles pretty straightforward,the instructions on here are so brilliant and everyones so helpful.i didnt bother phoning or writing to abbey in between,i just left it till they got in touch with me,cos they will do.hilx:lol:

thanks ,i'll do that tomorrow.if anyone else has had one of these notices from court would they reply pleeease!!

it says: TAKE NOTICE that the hearing will take place on ********at~**********at************ When you should attend 10 minutes has been allowed for the hearing. Please note:This case may be released to another Judge,possibly at a different court.

thanks michael,but why do you think its just a 10 minute hearing and they havent asked for a court bundle?thanks:cool:

hi! im on my 2nd claim to abbey as i split my last one ,ive got so far as sending court claim,abbey sent a defence and now i have got a 10 minute hearing date for july.this is different from my last claim as at this stage ,they sent me an allocation questionaire and then i received a court date where they told me to semnd court bundles in 2 weeks before.abbey settled a week before court date last time.why do you think its different this time,i wonder why i havent had an AQ,perhaps because the amount is a lot less?? thanks for your help ,you helped me so much last time. xxx

also,could i change my title as his hasnt been won yet!thanks!

hi again.hope you are all ok.ive put in another claim to abbey as i split the last claim to keep it small claims,ive got so far as to sending court claim, abbey filed a defence and i have now got a date from court in july for a 'ten mnute' hearing.this is different from my last claim in that no allocation questionaire has been sent and on my previous claim,when i got the date for hearing,it said about sending court bundle by a certain date etc,this says nothing about this, just it is a 10 minute hearing.is this what is happening at the moment.thanks hil:confused:

I WON I WON !!!! I REALLY REALLY WON!!! I CANT BELIEVE IT!! ABBEY SETTLED IN FULL !! Thanks so so much to the CAG,youve been brilliant and ive followed your advice to a tee and its all paid off!james from the legal dept at abbey phoned me and was very polite and its settled.wow!!it was actually a partial claim so its back to the drawing board.what do i do now,can i change my title then i can let the forum know.I will do my donation to my favourite website!!thanx thanx thanx!!!!!

thanks for that info. abbey said they had sent them all,but i had put it in the allocation questionaire about the missing statements.i have actually done very little extra correspondence with abbey,just the necessary letters.thanks again!!

hi karne if you get moment,could you just take a little look at my last thread ,ive nearly completed it all i think,just those queries and do you think i need to do an index for all the correspondence,do i include abbeys correspondence to me(which is about 3 letters!)oh and by the way,abbey sent me the £35,no statements yet tho!-i photocopied about 200 pages last night.!many many thanxxx

well done you!!!!!im just getting my court bundles together,got to get them in on monday.where did you send the abbey bundle,abbey reg office???hope you dont mind me askin!!

thanks karne and gary,just a couple of little things...at the end of your witness statement,it says exhibit exhibits(initials1)-just wondered what that was-is it the number of pages in the whole bundle??also ,i sign the witness statement,anything else??and i take one bundle to court and send one to abbey,any idea which address to send to to abbey??thanx againxx8)
