hello starting to do my claim for my lil bro who is owed around a grand. where is the best place to send my first request for the money, cheers carlie

cheers peed orf think I need it! carlie:D

And I thought Halifax took a long time to get my statements to me:p Keep bugging them and I am sure they will arrive. They must be pretty overloaded by now and rightly so. Hope they arrive super speedy for you. Good luck. carlie:D

Well Today I am finally sending off the sar for numpty my little brother, has taken in 2 months to give me a tenner so I can. I thinks he's owed about a grand:-o and is still getting charges added on at the momment. I have already taken on Walifax, sorry I mean Halifax and won:D , but realise this one isn't going to be quite as straight forward, so hope you guys are willing to help:oops: if I need any . Wish me luck carlie

Survey done and a donation will be winging it's way to you as soon as the money appeares in my account. Thanks again carlie

Thankyou both for taking the time out to respond. I have contacted shelter to see if they can help me in any way. carlie

Good luck Don't worry yourself too much If I can do it any one can:D . Just stick to your guns and to the right procedures and you wont have any problems. Carlie

Good luck Shouldn't take long for you to get your money now, I only filed mcol a week ago and received a letter this morning that the money will be in my bank in the next 5 days. Blinking royal mail are useless:mad: also had to chase them up at one point about mine, which was miraclously(sp) found. Carlie

Well like the post before says read the faqs, but what you need to do is take them to court, Most of us have used money claim. Good luck carlie

Well done lokks like we are finally getting our revenge.:o carlie

We did complain at the state of the place on the first day and also had an inspector out to view what we were talking about, but like I said very little was done. I know I have left ot late, but my depression has been really bad for the last year and I am only now begining to see the light at the end of the tunnel. Thanks carlie

Hi I moved into this property now 6 months ago, but due to depression have only just got round to sorting this place out properly. When we moved in the place was disgusting it stank of tabacco and we couldn't put the heating on as the tar and tabacco build up was in between the radiators and impossible to clean off. Here is the list of problems we had and mostly still have Radiators (resolved) Lounge Glass cracked in window Kitchen Work sufaces stained grouting stained florr tiles cracked and broken also different colors patches stained ceiling -just plain hurrendous - replaced next to the kitchen is a toilet and a cupboard all other houses owned by housing asociation have had these knocked through to form a dining area , but H/a wont do it for us despite haveing 3 children and no where to eat. No electric point for washer (resolved) Bathroom (which is downstairs) toilet bowl stained inside and at the bottom walls lumpy and bumpy need replastering mildew on grouting bath stained Front Garden No boundary fence on one side. What can I do about this I have had an inspector come to see these faults yet very little work has been carried out as you can see. I only feel ready now to do something about these problems. Is it too late to complain as I have been here 6 months. We have decorated and cleaned to our best abilty, but the place still looks a tip. I don't know what to do please help. Further more we were told that most of these problems would be dealt with befor we moved, we were handed the keys at their offices and when we arrived we did phone and complain about it, but nothing was ever done. I now feel like I don't have a leg to stand on. Any advice would be much appreciated. Carlie

As far as I am aware your account is in dispute so they are unable to do this, I would have a look about and see what you can find out on this. carlie

Hi First of all good for you taking on this horrid horrid company, they have put my poor mum through hell for years and for the 6 months the only balance she has been paying is that of charges. I will be watcing you thread closely as I would love her to get her charges back. Good LUCK carlie

Celebrations have started in the carlieanna household . What can I say I should be receiving my full amount in the next 5 working days. A Huge thankyou to you guys on this site and martin from moneysavingexpert.com, who bought this isue to my eyes. I will be popping a donation to you as soon as I receive the pennies. hugs carlie

I wouldn't worry too much, I did not reply to either of the offers they had given, as I had declined them both on the phone before they sent out the papers:rolleyes: . I put my moneyclaim in on the 18th had it acknowledged on the 22nd and am now inpatiently waiting for the money to be deposited in my bank:D . carlie

Congratuiations. Enjoy your money. I'm only a couple of days behind you so will hopefully have my money soon too, YAY:D carlie

Crikey such a long thread, but I made it too the end LOL:D . thank you all the inspiration, I need it as am sending my brothers sar for him next week. Good luck after all the s**t they put you through you deserve the full amount. hugs carlie

Well they have acknowledged already 22/9/06 yay, so how long do you think it will take for the money to be put in my account, i know iknow i'm really impatient, but I want it now:p It's my money and should be in my account:o blinking scumbags, who do they think they are. Am about to start my brothers claim for him with natwest, should be for about a grand, considering he owes me a couple of hundred (money I thought I had lost) will nice to get that back off him too:D . hugs carlie

Well I had a letter through from moneyclaim and the claim is deemed as servered on the 24th which is sunday:D so they have 14 days from then to respond, I think I have spent the money 10 times over in my head :o opps. Will keep you all posted. carlie

yep just 14 days is fine. well thats how I did mine.

Hi gail Please can you start your own thread I am sure somene will help you there. Good luck gary:D

ok the proceedings have started, but when i click on the start link on mcol it says this Do you wish to enter Judgment by Default or by Admission? Please select one of the options below: The defendant has not filed an admission or defence to my claim (Judgment by Default) You will need to decide, how and when you want the defendant to pay. You can ask for the Judgment to be paid by instalment or in one payment. The defendant admits that all the money is owed (Judgment by Admission) If the defendant has given a new address on the form of admission to which correspondence should be sent, update the defendant's details within the following Judgment request. which do i tick if any carlie I know I should of read up a bit more before I asked:p

Well done honey:p just filed mt money claim so shoulb be getting mine soon:smile: hugs carlie

Hi I take it you hve sent them your LBA (letter before action) so now is the time to write to them and decline their offer. And take them to court. Either money claim online or your local courts, money claim I imagine the easiest (tats what I used.). Just fil in all the details on moneyclaim as claiment. their are a few drafts on here for what to put in the particulars box on money claim when you get to that point. Good luck carlie
