Loeby Vs HSBC...Bring It On!

[loeby]

Hi all,

this is my first claim so im a bit nervous but excited at the same, cant wait to get stuck in.

Sent my request for previous statements which took about 2 weeks to arrive, after sorting through them all I sent my prelim letter on 5/10/06 requesting £1121, received a letter back on 13/10/06 from Colin Langdale which said..

 

Dear xxx

Thankyou for your letter dated 5/10/06 requesting a refund of your bank charges.

In order that we can consider your request please provide a full itemised breakdown of these charges to include date, description of the charge and the amount applied. Please also include any proposed new charges that you will have recived a pre notification advice for.

Thankyou again for taking the time to write

Yours sincerely

Colin Langdale

 

Thought this was quite a pleasent reply, the next one probably wont be!

I sent details of the request back that same day 13/10/06, still awaiting a reply, they have untill the 28th, if i havent recived anything by then , my lba letter will be going out so watch this space....

[Guest bong]

good luck with this. i received the exact same letter from colin langdale on 21 Sept. I replied on 25th Sept and haven't heard a dicky bird since. since then i've revised my claim upwards anyway (with an extra 6 years of charges and contractual interest) so they've actually done me a favour by not replying!

[loeby]

Yeah, im hopin to get to the stage where i can claim the 8% interest, means another grand and a half or so on top of my claim. Good luck with yours too.

 

Was wondering, I am counting the 14 days before my lba from when i sent the reply back to hsbc with the breakdown of charges on, is this right or should i just count the 14 days from when I sent the first prelim letter??

[Guest bong]

its from when you sent your prelim letter

[Guest bong]

yeah sorry I didn't notice that, you could have sent the lba any time after 19th October.

[loeby]

Right, lba sent off this morning, glad i dont have to wait till the end of the week, cheers for that

[Danp]

Good Luck

[loeby]

Cheers Dan, checked this morning, they have recieved my lba so they've got 14 days from today. Watch this space.....

[Danp]

Cool!

 

as you said on my trhead, we're on pretty much exactly the same time scale at the moment so it'll be interesting to see how we get on.

 

Dan

[loeby]

Does anyone know how long hsbc normally take to respond to a lba?

[Dani]

Could be anything.

 

couple of days, just before the time runs out, or never!!! There's no timescale with them!!

[loeby]

Just a matter of waiting then

[loeby]

Well its been nearly 14 days since i sent my lba and i have heard nothing, HSBC have until wednesday the 8th, if nothing then its time for mcol

[loeby]

Right well as expected I heard nothing from HSBC so my court case has been filed today.

[Guest bong]

remember to post a note to the mods for the litigation in progress thread

[loeby]

Will do, thanks bong

[cadencealex]

I haven't had a reply for two LBA's I sent for two different accounts either, and they only have another 4 days left....

 

... they're quick enough to write when they want our money though!

[loeby]

Spot on there, its just plain rude, at least we can claim the interest back when filing mcol, good luck with yours

[loeby]

Well I have received a 'notice of acknowledge' letter this morning from the court saying that HSBC now have 28 days to file a defence

[loeby]

I have heard nothing from hsbc since 'notice of acknowledgement', they have until this week to respond

[loeby]

HSBC have left it till the last day to file their defence which now means more waiting

[Guest bong]

won't be long now though!! you'll receive notice from MCOL that the case is being transferred to your local court and an Allocation Questionnaire. DG have been settling cases before the AQ has to go in.

 

Have you sent them the copy of your spreadsheet yet? If not send it off ASAP with your claim number on, don't wait for them to ask as you'll save yourself a couple of days.

[loeby]

I know, it'll be all worth it in the end though.

Ive sent the schedule of charges to hsbc but not the spreadsheet with ineterest, is it hsbc or the courts i need to send it to?

[Guest bong]

Its DG. Look on the acknowledgement of service for the details. You can send one to the court with your allocation questionnaire, but I don't think it'll get that far.

[loeby]

Thanks Bong, will get it sent off tommorrow, do i include ineterest upto todays date?
