Sent off prelim letter to woolwich (for £1720.64) but just starting to think if i should try and set up another account somewhere else in case the Woolwich get a face on ??...any thoughts anyone and if so any bank anyone can recommend (!) .. (was discharged bankrupt in 03 and no real probs since but guess credit history is still a bit iffy)

Thanks

cheers jonni2bad.thanks for the info - had already looked there but as daft as it may sound I am actually happy to stay with the Woolwich for another couple of years (my discharged bankruptcy can be removed from my credit file then and i may get a 1/2 decent account) but i just want them to be reasonable with me - as do all other woolwich customers!! and not rip me off every time a dd or cheque returns! (Which it wouldnt do if they did not charge £35 each time!!

What is niggling me (other than the thought of going to court!) is that they may get assy and close my account at short notice - has anyone had this happen ???

thanks

It has happened, but not on a large scale. We are now advising anyone who receives a threat of account closure whilst making their claim, to include an injunction so that the court orders the bank NOT to close it.

I got the same % offer from Woolwich just by sending my 1st letter

I had not even sent my LBA.

I tried to play it nice with them and offered to settle but not at their amount.I told them the amount I wanted (85%) of my claim but have not had a reply so have posted off my LBA yesterday for the full amount.

I have reiterated to them in this letter that I would still be willing to settle at my 85% figure so will see if they are prepared to deal !!

If not then I will file with Moneyclaim.

In your case I would now write back to them and say that you are prepared to accept the amount as a part settlement but that you will be pursuing for the rest in court.There is a template available.

Give them the 14 days to respond and then file I have filed at Moneyclaim for my NatWest account and it is pretty simple.

If I can help any more please do comeback to me

 

Good Luck

No response to my LBA

I am beginning to feel ignored!!

They are obviously hoping that I will just give up and go away.

Not a chance !!

MCOL being completed and ready to file - just need £120 !!

Lets hope they forget to acknowledge and you win by default but more likely they will acknowledge and gain themselves an extra 14 days to defend

I don't want to be a dark cloud over proceedings but they WILL acknowledge (probably in the last two days) and they will defend!

 

I am having a right ding-dong with the Woolwich and have just received a stay ordered on my account :mad:

 

Still, chin up and prepare for a fight - it's kind of fun in a perverted way :o

 

Worz

I used to be a dummy, stuffed full of straw and standing in the field of life. And like the straw-filled dummy I was I accepted my lot in life and carried on, tied to a stake in the miserable field of depression as the elements beat me day and night. But there came a time when the elements had gone too far and the string holding me to the stake fell rotten to the ground. The elements had tried to beat me, but instead had set me free!

Concentrate on the AQ first - you don't need to prepare a bundle just yet (although nothing stopping you) as this would normally be done once the court has allocated track and a hearing date etc.

 

See templates library for a guide to completion.

My Allocation Questionaire was completed and returned with payment before deadline.

Just rung court and they have not received Woolwich AQ.

Not quite sure what happens now???

Could Woolwich defence be struck out ?? I presume that it is up to the judge but dont know for sure??

Guy at the court told me just to wait now.

Any thoughts anyone??!!! :?

 

Happy New Year !!

My thoughts are that the Court will set a hearing date once the Woolwich/Barclays AQ is filed....they filed their AQ some 2 weeks after the deadline in my case.

Preliminary Letter sent to Woolwich 05/06

LBA sent 19/06

Court claim filed 04/07 : Total £824.75

Acknowledgement of Service 27/07

Defence received 08/08

AQ filed 11/08

Barclays AQ filed 05/09

Hearing date 20/12

SETTLED IN FULL £840.49: 14/12/06

Cheers essjaysea - I think!!:???:

Thats a bit bad isnt it??

Maybe I am just hoping too much that little cheque will come bouncing through my door sooner rather than later!!

I have gone this far now so a few more weeks (if necessary) wont hurt!!

Think its now just up to the judge so will just sit and wait and hope !!

Rang court again and they have now received Barclays AQ (late!!)

Court administrator said "Awaiting directions from judge now as none if these have gone to court"

Encouraging I think!!
