preliminary letter stage---Nationwide--

[delandjulie]

thanks i e-mailed mr bacon tonight - politely reminding him the claim was not settled in full and that i didn't charge him the 8%interest which i was entitled to and that he had 7 days in which to refund me the shortfull before i inform the courts that the claim is not settled

...and that he had 7 days in which to refund me the shortfall ...

 

That's very generous - I'd have given 48 hours :o

no reply from BACON (just as i expected) so just heard from the court today they're moving my case to my local court and i've a questionare to fill in as Nationwide have still put in a defence----- pretty straightforward the first question SETTLEMENT do i wish to postpone the claim for a month to discuss with the other party as to reach an agree-able resolution? i said no as he's had more than his fair share of time or am i being hasty? - do you think it will go that far or is he stalling again?

They are just playing the game, consider yourself a little closer to the finishing line as each day passes from now.

I hope you've opened another account because shortly after Nationwide paid up I had a letter saying that they were closing my account as i was unable to conform with their terms and conditions!

 

Incidentally there was an article in the Mail this week saying that all small claims regarding bank charges have been suspended awaiting the results of a case going to a higher court as that will dictate judgements in small courts.

 

It also said that the BCSB (Banking Code) board were meeting this week to decide their position on banks closing accounts after customers make claims. This is based on the opinion that people should be able to complaim without fear of retribution.

 

If anyones interested in the article I could probably scan it in and email it on

my account was closed last month and i even wrote prior and asked on what grounds and to reply in writing as to the actual reason ( still waiting for response--i'll be waiting a long time!!) so yes i had a fall guy and thanks for your advise

That case has actually been settled before it has gone to court. All small claims were not suspended. There is a big thread about this on the General forum so there is no need for anyone to panic on that score.

My Case Has Now Been Moved To My Local Court And I Have Just Finished Sorting Out The Paperwork Of Figures To Send Of To The Court On The Money Outstanding And Yes Bacon Has Still Put In A Defence Asked For Time To Mediate-wants It Heard In A Different Court But According To My Paperwork It Is A General Form Of Judgement Or Order Before The District Judge Quote:- Upon The Courts Own Motion.the Court Has Made This Order On Its Own Initative Without A Hearing.

Does This Mean Behind Closed Doors? Do I Have To Attend?? Can Anyone Advise Please???? Would Be Grateful
