See General Forum - in the stickies 'we would like to buy some lawbooks'

Do you think that the reason for the relatively few stories of sucess against the Natwest on here, is due to people agreeing to sign NDA's?

 

I got 2 letters in the post today, one from my branch, the other from head office. The 2 letters were very similar but differed in one major way, the one from my branch made me an offer of about 25% of what I was claiming and stipulating that I must sign an NDA. It amused me that I got both letters on the same day, one making an offer, and one telling me they weren't giving me a bean.

 

Anyway, responded saying that I might sign an NDA subject to all my charges being refunded and a seperate fee for the NDA of £10,000 However I actually started proceedings against them on the 7th.

 

So, if my next post is 'sorry I can't comment on this' you'll know the score

 

MODERATED post moved . please keep to the one thread

You know I would, but I couldn't find it

If you look at the sticky in general everyone please change your settings this will be the reason you where unable to find it and correct it for you.

It's also at the top of the forum - the bit that says:

You don't have to of course, it's just that the books that we all get our info from are *proper* law books and cost a bl**dy fortune - one on Confidentiality for instance cost us £137!!

 

But now, we have information regarding Confidentiality clauses.

Just an update. Started my claim on the 6th April, acknowledged on the 11th. I got 2 letters from them the day after I began my action, the first one was from my branch offering me £500 and the second was from head office saying their charges were fair, blah, blah, blah.

 

Anyway, got another letter from them yesterday saying that as I had rejected the offer, they were withdrawing it! Seems a bit odd to withdraw an offer that I have already rejected.

 

Natwest are really begining to annoy me, their attitude throughout seems to have been less professional and more small minded than the others. They seem to be grandstanding and trying to front this out. How they have the gall to be posturing after the OFT ruling I don't know.

 

Anyway, I really look forward to getting my money back from this lot, and I hope it goes all the way to court.

Good on ya!!!

 

Im at the same stage as you and had the same 2 letters... and they withdrew the offer i rejected ha ha!

 

Good luck!

 

Keep us posted!

[podgydad]

Got a letter this morning containing a ........... CHEQUE! Of course they want me to agree to not court publicity etc, will write back to them telling them I don't agree to confidentiality.

 

[lolly]

Thats fantastic, congratulations!

 

Out of curiosity, did they give the whole lot back and who had it come from?

 

We are about to start the process, owed about £850 from Natwest and am going to start with them. Hearing this is so encouraging

It cam from RBS Group litigation and was for the full amount. This was after they made me an offer of about 1/6th of what I was claiming.
