Paul V's Abbey

Hi all... Havent had a chance to check the forum in the last couple of weeks.

 

Thanks dozerblue.. Good luck to you as well.

 

 

 

Ok, So abbey had untill the 30th april to submit details of when i was overdrawn.

Easy enough info (and non-incriminating) to come up, but as some of you said, when i phoned the court today abbey have failed to submit anything as yet.

 

The court told me i should fill out a request for judgement asap (a much more helpful and supportive clerk than the one i spoke to before).

 

I have friday afternoon off so intend to submit my request for judgement then.

 

 

A couple of questions.

 

Anyone with experience of requesting a judgement... How long does it normally take to get a decision and then if in my favour how long will abbey have to pay me?

 

Also when i make the request i must add interest since filing my claim and the £100 for my aq.

 

Is it also possible to claim any costs... eg. the 10 odd recorded letters, paper, time, the 3 half days i have taken from work etc etc ?

 

Or do i now settle for the claim plus interest without costs ?

 

Thanks guys/gals

Just come across another matter that slightly worries me...

 

Whilst looking through my figures for the judgement request, I noticed that the formula i took from this site to work out the daily rate of interest doesnt actually tally up with the amount that the spreadsheet (also from this site) has added per day since the date of issue.

 

the amount on the spreadsheet is some 8p per day less than the figure placed on the claim form.

 

I will of course be using the spreadsheet figure as i will supply an upto date schedule with the request for judgement.

 

Is this a problem... could my claim be quashed on this?

[firefly1975]

Can Anyone offer some help

 

Cheers

New Update.

 

I filed a request for judgement on 4th may at the local court.

 

Today (24th may) i received the following from the judge:

 

 

 

To the Defendant

 

You have not replied to the claim form.

 

It is therefore ordered that you must pay the claimant £****.** for debt (and interest to date of judgement) and £###.## for costs.

 

You must pay the claimant a total of £####.## by 14 May 2007

 

 

 

 

What should i do now?

 

Little confused as to the payment date being before i received this letter.

 

Also the clerk said not to get too excited just yet as they could apply to have the judgement set aside ??

 

Should i allow them time to respond?

Should i contact them? if so who?

Should i just go ahead and seek a warrant of execution now ?

 

Thanks for all your help so far

get the execution in its been over a week

[firefly1975]

get the execution in its been over a week

Your right of course, however from when i spoke to the court i got the impression that they were sent the judgement at the same time as they sent it to me as such abbey would have only received it today or yesterday as well

Hi Firefly

 

You asked for timescales...

 

I got judgement at N1 stage, Abbey didn't acknowledge (they should have by 16 April) on 18 April I filed for judgement in default saying I wanted the cash by 7th May, then it all went quiet,

I got the Judgement for claimant on 30th April and then I got a copy of Abbey's defence (from Abbey - can't remember the date but after I got the judgement order) I rang the court and they said the judgement stood and then the cheque arrived on 4th May!

 

Hope this helps!

Thanks KnellyK,

 

I cant do anything now till at least tuesday so i'll give them till the middle of next week

[firefly1975]

quick update, been busy so havent had time to visit the court till today.

 

Its now 22 days past the judgement date and i havent heard a word from abbey, no letter, no email, no phonecall and definately no cheque.

 

The court were very surprised that abbey hadnt paid or applied to have it set aside or contacted me in anyway.

 

so i filed my warrant of execution.

 

no idea what happens now or how long it will take.

oooo that is exciting, i think that the baliffs will contact you and ask what branch you want them to go to, personally i would have it at my local branch and pop along with certain members of the press and pBC and Sky and watch all the fun

[ICY]

Now that i would love to see

[KnellyK]

I'd love to see it too!

Please tell us where (And when) you're sending the baliffs!

[ICY]

If the bailiffs are going in, i wouldnt mind being a spectator, in fact i would be taking my camera along, thats if its not too far

[firefly1975]

The Warrant would be issued to triton square as thats where all contact has been directed and was the address on the claim.

 

Really dont know anything about what happens now, I assume the court will contact them giving them a final deadline before the bailiffs are sent

[Lula]

The warrant will be issued to wherever the claimant wants it to be executed because the baliffs will ask

[firefly1975]

I assumed it would be issued to the address on the warrant form (triton square), not really bothered where, just the result concerns me.

 

From reading the court literature i'm of the impression that they will have another chance to pay now anyway, so i would doubt it would come to the bailiffs anyway... Though i may well be wrong

[firefly1975]

Today i recieved a cheque for the full amount

 

However, this was sent before i filed my warrant, as such i am down £55.

 

Is this possible to reclaim, or will the court refund it when i contact them to let them know its been paid?

 

Also, should i let the court know now or wait till the cheque has cleared?

 

Cheers

[ICY]

Deff wait till the cheque clears
