How about a letters thread?

[woolfie 7]

Just thinking a useful addition might be a letters thread where any consumers replies to banks etc. could be posted for reference or copying.

 

I know we have the templates which are absolutely great but there are a lot of letters out there which i have found a great reference but can take ages to find. An example would be if the bank offers a small settlement and you want to write back accepting it as an interim payment I was looking for a letter for this today and it took me ages to find but if the letters were all in one place then this would be very helpful.

Hi,

I've been looking for this letter too, unsuccessfully.

Where did u find it?

Dear Mr Banker

 

Thank you for your offer of £xxx.xx as part settlement of my claim.

 

Your offer is not satisfactory, although I am prepared to accept this sum, unconditionally, in part-settlement of my FULL claim of £yyy.yy.

 

I shall continue to proceed with my action to recover the remainder of my claim.

 

 

I don't feel this should be a 'template' as it is just a couple of lines saying thanks but no thanks. What are the other 'lots of letters' you can't find templates for?

I agree that it shouldnt be a template however a sub thread with the letters in it would be good.

 

Bookworm did a really good letter to Barclaycard which took into account the estimate of charges due to the DPA information that was given.

 

These are the sort of letters that should be in the sub-thread.

 

It, hopefully, would make things easier to find for newer users of the site.

I agree.

It took me quite a long time to research all the options I might need.

To have them all in one thread would have been a great help and saved a lot of time. Not everyone has the luxury of having plenty of free time - like me.

I am posting all my litigation correspondence with Nationwide in my thread to help the newcomers and give them confidence.

Exactly what I was thinking ( or sort of )

 

but yes, as this site grows with its wealth of information and advice it starts to become very very time consuming and difficult to find exactly what letters forms etc are needed, especially for newbies.

 

good idea.
