Help with MBNA CCA, please. - ***WRITTEN OFF***

Hi Laura and sorry to hear about your leg.

 

You can either wait until you hear further from the court and see what they say.

 

Or you can approach the court pro-actively and say you want your case reviewed asap with a view to costs.

 

[Laura Cooke]

Thanks Mike, Slick didn`t charge for letter writing but did charge the hourly rate you mention Mike, seen loads of scheduled costs and most were like the one I have done but it might be excessive having said that being a LIP not knowing much is difficult to get the balance right I have been to the court twice with forms mind you that was there fault.

 

Slick this pro-active approach what would I do if I decide to go that route?

 

Hello guest

[slick132]

Hi Laura,

 

Just speak to the court office and say pretty much what I said in my last post, ie you want to seek costs against the other party.

[Laura Cooke]

Thanks Slick just back from Hospital had my pot changed went for a rainbow coloured one to cheer me up said this type of break can take up to 12 weeks to heal so 6 weeks in pot then see me again, thanks for your advice will ring the court today when I`ve got my breath back:)

[Laura Cooke]

Slick rang the court they asked me to put things in writing to them wrote letter just needing someone to post it me:)

[slick132]

If you're near Kent, I'll pop over and get it posted for you.

[Laura Cooke]

Aah bless you no I`m about 300 miles from you lol daughter calls each day in her lunch hour she`ll post it, I`m humbled with the help on here and the help at home, I never realised so many people would come forward to help me at home, taking me to the hospital, fetching shopping it`s such a shame I have a car stuck here no driver and been told I may be in pot up to 12 weeks as it`s a break that doesn`t heal very well

 

Son gone home a while to sort his own place he as said he`ll stay for as long as I need him

 

It`s a nice feeling having so much support:D

Hi Laura,

 

Glad to hear you are getting lots of help, well deserved, although its such bad luck to break your leg.

 

Just wondered, do the courts have email facilities?

[Laura Cooke]

Thanks Dotty not seen any email facilities put in my letter my present situation to the court and that I am housebound I`m not feeling great in myself my pot feels extremely tight around the ankle I am sure this isn`t right rang my friend who is in same position she says to keep my leg elevated If I`m like this tomorrow I want to go to hospital and get the pot removed I can`t stand this strangulation feeling I can cope elsewhere on the leg and foot:)

[Dotty50]

Not sure if this will work.... will see!

 

Just a little something to cheer you up!

Just wondered, do the courts have email facilities?

[Laura Cooke]

Aah thanks my Dear Dotty yes ours accepts fax as recently on another data access case I am dealing with the other sides solicitors sent a fax as soon as the date was up to deal with the N1

 

Us poor paupers have not got fax lol:)

[Laura Cooke]

Hi Laura,

 

Just speak to the court office and say pretty much what I said in my last post, ie you want to seek costs against the other party.

 

 

Slick sent the court letter however today MBNA have wrote and offered half of the costs and want a letter of acceptance how do you deal with this at court does an official form have to be filled in to say they have offered some costs and should I respond to MBNA accepting as that is acceptable to me:)

[slick132]

Hi Laura,

 

Are you happy to accept their offer of half of your costs.

 

If so, a simple letter back to them is all that is required:-

 

Dear sir or madam,

 

I refer to your letter of xxdate and can confirm that I am willing to accept your offer of £xxx in settlement of my costs.

 

On receipt of your payment by cheque/credit to my account (sort code xx xx xx and account no xxxx xxxx), I will inform the court that all outstanding issues have been resolved.

 

Yours faithfully,

 

[Laura Cooke]

Thanks Slick for all your help very much appreciated will send letter in morning daughter-in-law calling she will post it for me:)

Ignoring it sounds right to me.

 

[GeoffreyAlby]

Ignoring it sounds right to me.

 

 

 

Ditto, just intimidation...... ignore it

[Laura Cooke]

It certainly sounds right to me Slick, Geoff enjoy the sunny weekend

[Dotty50]

Where has it gone Laura?

 

Hope the leg is healing well!

[Laura Cooke]

Hi Dotty removed it just the usual rubbish fed up of the leg having to stay in doors as it is on fire without sun on it can you believe it first time we get good weather which I love I`m in doors with air conditioning on

 

Son just called to stay he gone to a barbecue, other son has bouncy castle out and paddling pool for his children, daughter in Portugal and youngest daughter gone to fetch some shopping for me and me lying down watching TV

 

X ray Tuesday to see how the bone is knttting apparently a Jones fracture is poor to heal due to blood supply not getting through to the bone could be in cast 8-12 weeks I`ll go mad before then

 

Enjoy this lovely weather:D

[Dotty50]

Oh you poor thing Laura, it must be awful for you!

 

At least you can chat to people on CAG and do plenty of reading, you will end up being the expert on here!

[Laura Cooke]

It`s alright reading everything on here with my stresses I cannot store the information I easily forget it lol

[Laura Cooke]

Well still no costs been sent nearly 10 days since they got letter

[slick132]

Hi Laura,

 

You could write to them again, enclosing a copy of your acceptance letter.

 

Tell them they should settle as agreed within 7 days or you'll contact the court to seek a formal remedy in this matter.
