I stated on my claim that I required a cheque but they are still saying that Lloyds only pay cheques when the account is closed.. I am curious if anyone has had a cheque when their account is still open ? thanks

Molly,, any news yet..we're roughly the same time line and I've had the offer over the phone, see my thread...... Have you spoken with them recently, might be worth chasing them up.... xx

been offline, sorry Tom, well done mate....

Moos, see my thread, nearly there now.... you get faxing them tomorrowfreebird x

mee too Ian, heard by phone today that they've now offered same with out the conditions attached..when I see it in the bank I'll post more,they refused my subsequent charges so I guess I've another claim starting soon, too..

and it feels sooooooooooooooo goooooooooooooooooodwatch this space !!!!!

Great, looks like no conditions were attached as they'd have said that with their offer.......if the money's in your bank they can't lump you with conditions after that !Well done, take the money and run....lol.....

I made a call today to SCM and they returned the call this afternoon. I've now had a verbal offer of full settlement WITHOUT the conditions attached at last....... They still won't pay me by cheque though as they say Lloyds only pay a cheque whenthe account has been closed......that's why I posted the " settlement thread" SCM said it will be in my account between 5 and 7 days....... watch this space.the minute it's in the account, I'll post here with claim settled........... nearly there eh ?

good one Jules..... just keep faxing them saying you won't accept the conditions......

could any Lloyds claiments, who've won, let me know if they received a cheque, and had they already closed their account with Lloyds. I've been told that Lloyds will only pay by cheque if the account is CLOSED and if the account is still open they only pay settlement in to your own account....... please has any one any ideas on this one. thanks.

well done let's know re conditions etc and method of payment.. brill news...........

Foxy when they told me over the phone that a letter was on it's way, the first one went missing and the second one took three weeks tyo come so don't hold your breath..keep chasing them for it..... well done BTW

I too spke with SCM today and got similar response, looks like I'll have to wait until "stays up " on the 22nd. and again write to the court !

Foxy if you have a look at my thread you'll see my " tooing and frowing" with SCM.. I've been faxing lately and they seem to get theat straight away so you can follow it up with a phone call. Good luck, Freebird x

Oh Gary, well done mate I'm so chuffed for you. You give everyone on here so much help and advice and it's so good to see you get what is rightfully yours. I think too it's good to see that if you stick it out then you can get the conditions lifted and payment by cheque which is all most of us are asking for. Congratulations mate.xx

keep on going Jules and keep coming in here for support.. good luck

welcome pw..have alook at the FAQ and in the section for the bank you're in..you'll always find someone on here to give you some support.. good luck

Pete, interesting thread....... legal points noted and frustration of yourself as a pedestrian and householder who's dropped kerb it is. Of course the Law is right but this doesn't stop you from feeling really peeved when it happens to you. I have been driving for 30 years now and I also have access probs out side my house for my daughter who's disabled so I know where you're coming from...... the problem is there's so many prats driving out there and yes lots of them are bully's so when they get behind the wheel, their personaility is there....handling a machine which can kill...so I give in every time.....whether the law's on my side or not.........as a pedestrian I'm aware of them and their power and as a driver I get "cut in" and totally abused..daily...............it's all so stress ful but you've got to just look out for yourself and "yours" now and just ry to keep out of the way of all the bully's in life.........

here you go Foreva, I'm with Lloyds but if you read this through it might give you the encouragement to keep going,, I'd have been lost with out all this lot on here, this forum has kept me going over the past 6 months...and how ! http://www.consumeractiongroup.co.uk/forum/showthread.php?t=16906

http://www.consumeractiongroup.co.uk/forum/showthread.php?t=41754 http://www.consumeractiongroup.co.uk/forum/showthread.php?t=714 Hya Katie, have a look at these links and see if they help.. I can't speak for other sites, but this site/forum has helped so many people and is continuing to do so. I'd have been lost with out the support of the Admin, Mods, site helpers and other posters to help me through the past 6 months of struggle..... I personally can't speak highly enough of them and I have told so many people about them, to help them out too...... just read through the threads in your own bank section and have a look in mine in Lloyds too and you'll see how much support they have all been. good luck

"an error of omission, rather than an error of commission" ooohh I love you good luck.. as you can see "I'm still waiting" as sung with Dianna Ross a few posts ago in my thread...lol.....

I can't see any probs with what you've written but can any one else, look it over please and help out ? freebird x

Steffi, have a look in our threads, some times negotiating with them via, phone, fax and letter is paying off, no quick fix but at least then you're showing the court that you're trying to settle before court, tell SCM what you are prepared to accept with out conditions...and let them answer YOU......

well done Sue, brill news..xx
