Hold out guys - my claim was acknowledged on the money claim site yesterday and today I had the standard letter from DG offering me half.

Hi guys - just checked moneyclaim site and my claim has been acknowledged as of today's date..here's hoping for some good news soon. With any luck your claims should be acknowledged in the next day or so.

Thanks - have just tried again and it worked - my claim is now showing as acknowledged as of today's date. Hope that's a good sign.

Has anyone tried logging on to the moneyclaim site today and if so was it successful - keep getting a page not available message - is it the site or a problem with this pc?

Hi there - have just checked again and claim still not showing as acknowleged - it's for £2427.23 which includes the 8% interest and solicitors costs. Hope we hear something soon.

I'm getting a bit edgy too as just checked the moneyclaim website and my claim is still only showing as issued and the date of that was 19th July. Oh heck...hope I'm not going to be the test case.

Hi guys, congrats to all those who's claims have recently been settled. Filed my money claim and it shows as issued on 19/7/06 but haven't had any response from FD yet. Being a 'glass half empty' sort of person I hope mine isn't going to be the test case at court. Will keep you posted.

As far as I'm aware the court will advise FD of the claim against them - if you've already been through the steps of the prelim letter and LBA they'll already have details of what you're claiming.

What a champ - thanks ..it makes sense now!

Thanks for the prompt reply - just one last thing - the moneyclaim site advises that you must include the 'daily rate' of interest you are charging and gives a formula for calculating it - I've tried applying this formula on the amount I'm claiming but it doesn;t look right. Maths was never my strongest subject , is there an easy formula?

HELP!! I'm in the pocess of completing moneyclaim on line as FD have now replied and advsed me to refer to Ombudsman etc etc. My question is , when completing the moneyclaim on line you are not able to send the schedule of charges with it as an attachment - is this likely to be a problem? FD have already seen my schedule of charges twice so they're well aware of the charges I'm claiming for - is it sufficient for me to put the totals only on the moneyclaim. please would some kind person be good enough to reply urgently as i'd really like to complete this tonight. many thanks.

Well, I've still not received a reply from FD following my LBA so guess it's almost time to make the moneyclaim. The only query I have is that when I made my initial claim, as well as claiming the O/D and XS O/D charges I also claimed the charges which had appeared on my statements as 'interest'. Was this the correct thing to do? If not, when I complete the money claim should I disregard these and just claim for the O/D and XS O/D charges. Having got this far I don't want to jeopardise my claim. Thanks for all the help so far.

Don't worry about this - see my previous postings - the likelihood is that you'll have your reply before Royal Mail update their website. Good luck with the claim!

Seems to me like they're inundated with requests for refunds - I've had the same letter after sending my LBA. Either that or they're stalling until they've had some final guidance from their HQ.....interesting!

Have sent my LBA - tick tock...
