Hi Guys,

 

Been a while since my last confesion due to my being a shade on the busy side and not really having the time to get on moneyclaim and actually send the claim off.

 

Right so i've pulled me finger out and Submitted Court orders through MoneyClaim for: £3,096.00 Charges + £328.44 in the form of 8% interest + £120.00 Court fee = A Grand Total of £3,424.44.

 

It was really seing Martin and Dave on the box the other night that gave me a kick up the arse to crack on and get it finished off.

 

Dave man - You're a legend!

 

 

I'll let you all know how the whole shabang goes.

 

 

Peace man

Good luck. Expect a reply from someone at Halifax, asking you to send them details of the charges that you are claiming "as it was not in the particulars of claim" eejits... Time stallers and time wasters...:mad:

 

Do they drag it out a little?

 

How long was it for you? x

24 days from the day of submittal - but only because I chased them up :p

 

they had until 8th august to respond to my claim but I didn't fancy waiting that long so I called yesterday 'to check that they'd received my claim' they said that I'd receive a letter in the next couple of days but wouldn't say how it was looking, checked on the off chance today and it was in!

 

stick in there, such a good feeling when the cash is there! woohoo!!!

Dear Mr Bilko

 

Yourself -v Halifax plc

claim No6QZ37190

 

I have received and have been dealing with the proeedings which you have issued against Halifax plx in the Northampton County Court.

 

your claim relates to bank charges debited to your current account. These charges were debited to your account in accordance with the account terms and conditions which you agreed to except and by which you are bound.

 

I have returned the form of acknowledgment of service to the Northampton County court indicating that halifax intends to defend your claim. However, on a purely commerical basis, it will cost halifax money to defend your claim, in terms of the legal costs that would be incurred. It is unlikely that halifax will be unlikely to recover these costs (even if the bank wins) because your claim will probably be allocated to the small claims track, in which costs are not generally awarded.

 

For this reason, but without admission of liabilty, Halifax is willing to reimburse £3,096.00 in respect of the bank charges incurred, together with £328.44 in respect of approximate intrest that Halifax has calculated was charged on your account as a result of the charges. The Halifax will also reimburse £120 in respect of the court fee. This amounts to £3544.44.

 

I will write to the court to let them your claim has been settled and would be gratefulm if you could do the same.

 

We are keen to help you avoid any unnecessarily by providing....'Blah blah and Blah' (you get the gist)

 

Yours Sincerely,

 

Helen Rawnsley

Customer Relations Manager

WELL DONE BILKO!!! It's a fantastic feeling isn't it? I can't belive Halifax are still claiming that they're doing it "for purely commercial reasons". They've paid out over £200k to members of this site, you can't tell me if what they do is legal that it's not worth contesting?!

 

I have told one or two people I work with about claiming and they were chuffed for me. Don't know if they are likely to be claiming, but they know who to come to for advice, and guess where I'll direct them?!!

 

Well done again, go spend your money!

Penny Less

Q) Why is there always so much month left at the end of the money?

EDITED.
