please please read as much as you can on this site it will answer most of your questions. make a post of your own so you dont hijack someone elses and anything you need to ask do it on there. the step by step guide applies to scotland as well as england and things only change when you get to filing at court but you need to use the scottish spread sheets as they are slightly different.

If I try to claim through a summary cause claim, have you any idea of the timescales as I'm supposed to be emigrating to Australia early new year. Do you know if I could submit the claim and head over to oz leaving someone else to represent me at court if neccessary? If claiming via the summary cause route, is the interest added within the £1500?

The 8% should be included in the £1500. I'm not sure about the position if you leave the country. There certainly won't be a problem with continuing your claim, but I'm not sure about getting someone who isn't a lawyer to fully represent you. I suggest you call up the court and ask them.

Robertxc v. Abbey - £3300 Settled in full

Robertxc v. Clydesdale - £750 Settled in full

Nationwide v. Robertxc - £2000 overdraft wiped out, Default removed by order of the sheriff

Robertxc v. Style Card - Default removed by order of the sheriff

Robertxc v. Abbey (1) - Data Protection Act action. £750 compensation

Robertxc v. Abbey (2) - Data Protection Act action. £2000 compensation, default removed

Thanks smoorach and others, I' m looking to claim back around £5K, has anyone used this mutiple claims scenario, it seems a right pain. won't the courts take a dim view as they may think I'm too tight to employ a solicitor and think I'm wasting court time?

 

If I claim in England, can I do it just across the border or will I have to go to London or where the HQ's of the banks are?

timescales for these claims are much quicker in scotland from what i have experienced i have put through two cases now and have received court dates within a week of submitting to court and they are usually around a month from when you submit. in both cases the bank has paid up before i have had to attend at court although the second one did expire due to the bank not submitting a defense. however they then paid before i was due to request a judgement in default.
