cooper v abbey ** WON **

[craigycoops]

hi

wonder if this is a normal abbey tactic!!!!

called the court to see if abbey returned their AQ which should of been by 4pm on monday 23rd october.

today being the 27th the court said that they have not received it and it will go for the judge to decide.

 

do abbey normally do this and what should i now expect?

thanks

[craigycoops]

really fed up now.

called the court yesterday for any latest news and was told that the court accepted abbey's AQ over 1 week late. when i asked why she could not give me an answer.

anybody know why the court has given them so much slack and what is the point of keeping to the courts dates if they accept things late.

what can i expect next?

 

sorry for being negative but i am really p****d off with them.

hi

recieved a letter from the courts today saying that i have a "small claims track" hearing at court on 9th February 2007 at 11.30am.

after reading other threads i noticed that both parties have to file their documents etc 14 days before the hearing but mine have to be in by 15th December, thats almost 2 months before. is this normal?

 

Also, except for the few letters they sent to me plus my statements what else can i use as evidence and is there any threads which can help for this.

court letter said we should try to settle the case and we should contact each other. does anyone have the phone numbers for the people now acting for abbey.

 

please help

[craigycoops]

when i phone to attempt some sort of settlement does anyone have any ideas as to what i should or shouldnot say.

 

thanks

Dont hold your breath. I think Christine has a very long list of people to get back to and personally I think it depends on your court date as to when she gets back to you. From what I have read and my own experience she wont get back to you until very near to your court date. I may be wrong and its worth a try anyway.

[craigycoops]

phoned abbey last friday to discuss my case as the judge recommended. at least if it goes to court then i can say i tried to talk to them.

spoke to woman there and basically she asked if i was open to offers.

i said it depends what the offer was.

she said she would get back to me about it (still waiting) but i said that as court details have to be in by december 15th i will give them until december 1st to make an acceptable offer.

Good luck craigycoops, they really are B******S arent they!!

 

Have you done anything about preparing a court bundle? if so, how did you get on with it... I'm trying to get my head round that bit, but failing miserably!

[craigycoops]

hi fuzzgun

hi fuzzgun and craigy,

i'm at similar stage my court date is 18th dec so i really need to get started on my court bundle. Think there is a thread listing some of what you need- i will look for it. Its harder to do this bit, dont you agree. Its all starting to seem too real. i really hope i dont have to go the court but as christine hasnt called me back and now the phone goes straight to answerphone i think i need to prepare for the worst. will keep you posted and good luck.

[sarah13]

thanks karnevil- will start reading now!

[craigycoops]

thanks karnevil. dont know what i would of done without you.

allways here to help us

i have just been reading about putting together my court bundle and was surprised by the amount of stuff needed.

do i need all this paperwork or do i just take certain bits from it.

i got the bundle from KARNEVIL'S Court Bundle - Basic.

PLEASE HELP

[craigycoops]

delivered my bundles to the court and to abbey.

abbey had until 4pm last friday to submit their bundles to me and the court.

GUESS WHAT. THEY HAVE NOT DONE IT.

what happens now?

i assume they will rely purely on their 2 page defence they sent to me about 3 months ago..

anybody have any ideas

[noobrider]

has anyone got inga's email...she didn't include it on my letter from her?

[craigycoops]

as abbey failed to send their bundles in on time i decided to call christine and remind them.

seems a nice person and we are in discussion for a settlement --- i hope.

if it all comes off i was thinking of doing birmingham midshires for charges on my mortgage. anyone know if that is possible

[craigycoops]

letter from courts saying that abbey have just 2 weeks to comply with sending court documents or else case will be awarded to me.

phoned abbey 4 times in last week to settle but they say will ring back.

told them today that if they dont call me today then i will see them in court on feb 7

[sarah13]

they will leave it till the last minute to settle- keep waiting!

[craigycoops]

just had a nice long discussion with abbey and they have SETTLED ON 95%. I WONNNNNNNN.

thanks all for your help and everyone keep up the challange.
