Apparently not.

I'm actually getting really, really hacked off with this lot.

They've again written to my mother to tell her that unless she pays the bailiffs will be round and that we have ignored THEIR requests. They have ignored MY blasted letter.

I'm so angry I could explode. These are bully tactics...

Right. What can I do to end this once and for all? The mood I'm in, I'm going to go down to Liverpool and drag one of these so called solicitors out of Windsor Smythe & Partners and beat him senseless...

My other half says I've received something in the post today from them....

Will find out what it is and get it posted ASAP....

bumpety bump!

We need to keep this one current.

Thanks.

I agree. Dino asked me to email my charges across to him, and I added the interest and court charges. I got an offer, by letter, the following day for the full amount.

I was talking about my 100metres time...

I'm fast. So says my girlfriend anyway! :o

There is a thread here http://www.consumeractiongroup.co.uk/forum/barclays-bank/94602-barclays-litigation-team-good.html

It has the details of other members of the litigation team who should be able to help!!

Let us know!!

Right, I won't.

They are sneaky sods for asking for it.

They are going to get their letter back with the new (natwest) bank details to pay the money into, and the confidentiality part removed today, and once the money has cleared I will notify the courts and this forum.

Many thanks to everyone that has helped me with my varied, and sometimes odd issues...

A donation will be on the way, courtesy of Barclays...

Excellent... Thanks guys!!

I've also just read that I need to send them a copy of the letter I am sending to the court - I've read somewhere that this should not have my signature on it...

Is there a template of this letter anywhere?

Dar£n has already answered your questions if you read back through your posts

It's me being dim... I couldn't work out whether it said that they would not be able to pay into my new Current Account, with a different bank, or whether it would be a cheque only.

Should I just put the account details I want it paid into on their settlement letter and fax it back to them?

Also, do people normally scribble the confidentiality bit they put on the letter?

Thank you muchly...

Hello.

There is another thread somewhere... I have a court date set for August, and I called him and he sent a letter out for the full amount requested.

Back to my original question, can I get them to put the money direct into my new current account, with a different bank, or will it have to be a cheque??

Thanks, as always...

Excellent. I'll get in touch in with Barclays tomorrow and give them account details.

Thanks as always...

Fishy...

I'm ready to get it on...

I'm so mean, I make medicine sick...

Hello all.

Barclays offered to settle in full, by letter today, which is great news...

However, they have said that if agree, then payment will be made to my Woolwich account. The problem is, the machine swallowed my Woolwich card when the account became in dispute some months back.

Can I request that they pay me either by cheque, or into my new current account, or can they just refuse and let it go through to court, citing me as being unreasonable??

Help!!!

Thanks!

Fishy...

Hello all

In the spirit of DiskManDave, and Muhammad Ali's 1974 clash against George Foreman, entitled 'The Rumble in the Jungle', I have decided that I've already had enough of Robinson, Way & Co's complete and utter disregard of the OFT's guidelines, and am taking them on in my own battle royale...

The Joust at London Scottish House!

I had a loan at Citi Financial, that I know has been over inflated with charges, and currently stands at just over £6000. The repayments were about £150 per month, but I lost my job in the Summer of last year and what with children, rent, etc I just couldn't continue paying. They deferred a couple of repayments for me, at a price of £25 a time, I made a couple of payments where I could, but had to stop completely in November 2006.

In December 2006, I moved address, and although I had a redirection, I buried my head in the sand ignored their requests to get in touch.

This site gave me the confidence to get my head out of the sand and face my debt, so on 21st March 2007, I sent a CCA request to Citi and, within the allowed timescales, I received what I believe to be the correct documentation, however I will scan and upload this in due course so you wise chaps can verify its legalities.

Oddly, within three weeks of receiving this, and with no correspondance in between, the debt was sold to Robinson, Way & Co, who have since written two of their nonsense letters to me. On advise from this site, I sent another CCA request to Robinson Way, which has been delivered and signed for on the 31st May 2007.

I've also had a call from them, spouting the usual nonsense of 'there is an agreement because you have paid'.... I've told them to naff off until the agreement is received as per the CCA, and to ONLY contact me in writing, which I'm sure will be ignored.

So... This is how it stands. I'd like to make it clear that my quest is not avoidance of the money I owe, but to stamp out the ******'s dodgy practices.

It may look like I'm on the ropes, taking some heavy shots, but there is a method in my madness...

Same here.

I'm just wondering what I now need to send back to them, as I have sent the SAR, and am well over the 40 days, and have also sent a CCA request and am well over the 30 days there.

It's all far from being clear cut!!!

I don't know whether you're the same as me Un1, but when I sent my SAR, all I received were literally just transaction details for the last six years, and a list of charges.

When they put the account through Heatons LLP solicitors, I sent a CCA request, recorded delivery, and never heard from any of them again.

Same.... Dino asked me to email my charges across too today, and my court date is August... Seems a nice chap!!

So they would have to provide the original account application, which should have the provisions within it, if credit were to be taken?

Or am I barking up the wrong tree?

Thanks guys...

This is what I mean - there are varying opinions on this,

Good advice...

The next logical step would be for me to find out when the boiler was serviced and act accordingly.

Thanks again.

Fishy.

Seems logical...

Is there a template about for this...?

Hello All.

I know it's been eons since we visited this post. I asked for the proof of purchase back in January and failed to get a response. Until today that is...

I received this email in my inbox.

The subject of the email is a very snappy one: FINAL NOTICE -- COASTAL CONTACTS // EQUIFAX

And the bones of the email is this:

"Please be advised we are proceeding on your delinquent order.

Unfortunately you have not responded to our numerous attempts to contact you via telephone, mail and email correspondence.

To avoid your personal credit file being affected and additional fees being applied to your order, do not hesitate in contacting the undersigned at once.

Sincerely,

XXXXXXXXXXXXX

Financial Credit & Risk Services

Coastal Contacts"

Cheeky what nots! And by sticking Equifax in the title, it's designed to really frighten people. I hate the fact companies think they can scare money out of people, without honouring their obligation of at least supplying the correct documentation to corroborate their claims.

My response will be this:

"As advised on numerous occasions via email, the items in question were never received by myself.

I have requested proof of delivery from you, in order to find out who signed for the package, but you have failed to provide this.

I consider this matter in dispute and require either proof of delivery, from yourselves, within fourteen days, or if you can not provide this information, I require an email advising me that this matter is closed and no further action will be taken against me.

Any future correspondence to the contrary will be deemed as harassment and reported to the relevant authorities.

Regards

Mr Fish "

Does everyone think that will be ok, or should I add anything else?

Thanks as always,

Fishy

I've edited now...

Hit tab and enter and prematurely closed the post... Story of my life...

Thanks chaps... I've had a look through and can pick several things DCAs have said and done in the past.

My new target are the wonderful Robinson Way, and I am going to do intend they work to the letter of the law, and I will now be quoting OFT to them everytime they are naughty.

Great thread Diskman... An inspiration to all of us at the mercy of Robinson Crusoe & Co...
