I am currently at stage two of claiming back £1535 from the Halifax.

 

I sent the letter advising i would be issuing in 14 days and the reply i received has shcoked me a little. They originally offered me £400, I rejected this. They have now withdrawn all offers and have advised me to contact the Financial Ombudsman Service. What do I do? Shall I continue with my plan and issue proceedings or shall I contact the Ombudsman? Please help? :?

Nope, don't contact the Financial Ombudsman Service. If you have sent the LBA and the time you provided expired then issue a claim against them.

Thanks for that!

The LBA expires on 16th Oct so will issue then.

Getting a bit nervous now. I did think the Financial Ombudsman was to scare me but i've not seen it mentioned on the Forum before so I wasn't sure.

I work in Law and deal with Small Claims day in day out, but when it's little me against the Halifax, it's very daunting!!

 

Great site by the way!

Good luck Mark and to everyone else claiming against the Big Bad Bank!! :)

Hi Suzanne,

 

Almost on the same timescale as you, acknowledgement of service on 26 october.

 

Found this bit of info today just in case http://www.lawworks.org.uk/index.php?id=334 , havn't checked if there is something similar on the C.A.G. but thought it might be useful, sort of gives you an idea of what to expect next if they dont settle now.

don't knock it 'till you've tried it! :)

Hi Suzanne,

 

Still no letter from the halifax but have been to online banking today to check the balance in my account and it seems they have payed up. 2 payments in one for the charges and one for the interest.

 

You were slightly ahead of me so I recon they will be coughing up for you soon, if they haven't already.

 

Good luck:-)

don't knock it 'till you've tried it! :)

Morning all!

Still bathing in the glory of getting my money back, but i still haven't received written confirmation from the Halifax regarding the settlement.

As i have the money shall i notify the court or wait for written confirmation from the bank? :-)
