  1. Yes indeed, poultry enumeration has been postponed! ;-)
  2. Oh yes! My wife has been sent her settlement letter which I got her to sign and duly faxed it back earlier today. Hopefully we should get a nice deposit tomorrow I spoke to Krysta about my claim and, yes - they want to settle. They are just waiting for the accounts dept to confirm all the charges. With a bit of luck I may get a settlement letter through tomorrow :grin: I will still submit both court bundles anyway, just in case they are trying to pull a fast one ;-) I used the new-fangled AQ and draft order and it certainly speeds things up (if the judge plays ball). Barclays have had to submit their evidence 2 weeks earlier than normal. Take care Mark
  3. Just to let you know, Krysta is on a new telephone number. I couldn't get through for a few days, just got her answer phone. So I phoned Dino and he let me know the new number. It is 0207 116 5835 Cheers Mark
  4. Got court dates on Friday for me and my wife. The first one (my wife's) is on 29th June. I've just emailed Barclays (Dino and Krysta) to see if they want to settle. Fingers crossed!!! ;-)
  5. Well, I did receive an AQ in the end which I duly returned (along with a cheque for £100) using the new style draft order. That was 9 days ago, so I should be getting a request for information or a court date soon, hopefully. I am a bit concerned about the Lloyds TSB ruling recently, and I haven't told my wife as she will only get worried by it (she has submitted her own claim via me). Touch wood, things will still go to plan!
  6. Thanks for your reply oneofakind, that eases my mind a little! Should I be contacting the bank at this stage and saying something like "we both know you're not going to turn up at court, why not just pay me now?", or words to that effect? Has anyone else tried doing this? Kind regards Mark
  7. Well, Barclays have put in a defence at the last minute and I have just received a letter from Northampton County Court. In it, there is a copy of the defence form (which I think looks pretty standard), and it confirms that the case is being transferred to my local court, but it also states that: IT IS ORDERED THAT 1. The filing of an allocation questionnaire be dispensed with in this case unless the District Judge at the court of transfer orders otherwise. Does this mean that I won't have to fill in an AQ? I thought everyone had to? Or will I get one in due course from my local court? Any help would be much appreciated. Mark
  8. yes, I was just worried that they would throw it out of court on a technicality. Maybe I've been watching too many American tv shows - lol! Thanks for your reply
  9. Darn! I was just checking over our claims and I have just realised I made a typo when I filled out the MCOL claim on my claim! In the Particulars of Claim I entered £2724.33 instead of £2725.33 Do I need to get it changed, and will it cost me? If I need to get it corrected and it costs me more money, can I add that cost to the claim as well? Many thanks
  10. Hi All I thought I would create a thread to let everybody know how we are doing. My wife and I started trying to get our money back off Barclays at the end of November 2006. We sent in a letter jointly and followed the guidelines on this and the moneysavingexpert site. We are after £4109 (which includes interest) from the 4 bank accounts that we solely and jointly hold with them, and received an offer from Barclays at the beginning of January for £1000. We subsequently refused that offer but wrote saying that if they gave us £2500 we would call it quits. We never heard back, so we have just now put our claims in with MCOL. It is getting a bit scary now, but exciting nonetheless, and we are eagerly checking the MCOL site to see if they put in a defence. I expect they will at the 11th hour, but you never know. If we get what we ask for we will be making a donation to this site, because we wouldn't have got this far without it. It's fab. All the best Mark
  11. Well, we are now at the stage to go to court (well, a bit late really), but I am unsure about a couple of things. 1. We were sent a letter from an Alison Follett from Head Office Customer Relations. London E14 5HP offering £1000 (we claimed for £3500). We replied to her saying "give us £2500 and we'll call it quits" but we haven't received a reply. Before that letter we had sent all correspondence to our local branch in Bath. When we file our court claim, what address should we use for Barclays - our local branch or the Head Office address? 2. My wife and I have 4 accounts between us, 2 joint accounts and 2 personal accounts. Up to now we have included all 4 accounts in one letter and both signed the letter. When making the court claim with MoneyClaimOnline, do we have to claim separately or can we make a claim jointly? It looks from the web site that we have to do it separately. 3. At what stage do we have to send all the bank charges spreadsheets to the court? Is it when you first lodge your claim, or do you send them in later? This taking them to court bit is all a bit scary and daunting and I don't want to mess it all up! Many thanks Mark
  12. Hi. My wife and I have put in a claim to Barclays, but I'm a bit concerned that we've gone about it the wrong way. We both have a current account and also we have a joint account. We wrote a joint letter to Barclays asking for our statements for all 3 accounts, and received them with our £10 cheque returned. We then wrote another joint letter asking for the charges back to which my wife has received a reply saying it is being looked into, but I haven't heard back yet. Should we have claimed individually and do we need to start again, or do we continue claiming jointly? If we do need to claim individually, can we just carry on from now onwards with individual claims with separate amounts, or have we messed up? Regards Mark
