twinkle v Barclays ***SETTLED IN FULL***

[Tobes]

wow, I think I'm right in thinking that on multi-track you can request full disclosure, i.e. you can ask barclays to provide ALL documents relating to how they calculate their costs, how they arrived at the sums for charges, their accounting procedures etc etc

[barracad]

twinkle - is your case number 6QZ230852 ?

[twinkle]

Thanks to everyone who replied to my plea!

 

alanfromderby - thanks. I'll let someone know if I get stuck.

 

Tobes - going to get in touch with the court re multi-track. They apparently have an information sheet on this (but didn't send it!)

 

barracad - no, my case number is 6QZ30852.

 

Will keep you all posted

[barracad]

barracad - no, my case number is 6QZ30852.

 

Ok as there is only one digit missing the case number I have may be a typo - please check the PM I have sent you.

I think that this is an extrordinarily important development.

It seems that we have a judge here who may be aware of what is going on and has decided to push it to the limit.

He has ordered a multi-track trial which means standard disclosure from the bank.

You may not realise it but this order has been made by a circuit judge.

This probably means that a District judge noticed the case, realise what it signified and referred it to a circuit judge who then made the order.

I expect that that the bank will settle but it shows that maybe some judges are getting fed up and that they understand where the trouble is coming from.

I think that this development is extremly positive. I do not think that it is anti-claimant.

 

Also, I feel (only a feeling) that because the court has exercised its own discretion to allocate the case to the Multitrack on a low value case, that even if Twinkle loses it will be unlikely that the court awards costs against him.

 

Twinkle: I have pm'd you. I think that you should contact me urgently and also let me have the scans which I have asked you for

[squishy]

Wow, this seems like a very interesting development. BEst of luck, Twinkle, will be watching with interest!

[caro]

Try not to worry Twinkle. We are all right behind you, although it is still quite likely that you will get settlement pretty soon I imagine. If not I am sure that BankFodder makes sure that you are well prepared for what might lie ahead.

[twinkle]

Thanks squishy and caro! It's good to know you're out there.

 

Anyway, I have received excellent advice from BankFodder. I have some things to think about and will keep everyone posted as it happens!

[Nightstar]

Best of luck twinkle;) following your thread got everything crossed for you:)

[twinkle]

Just an update for you all.

 

After some good advice and serious thinking I have decided to carry on with my claim, and as of yesterday, Barclays and the courts received my proposed directions through to trial. As some of you know my case was put onto Multi Track by the judge.

 

Barclays have until Friday 4pm to do the same, so here I wait

[Bookworm]

And since KJ is on hols until the 9th (I think).... that could prove tricky, lol.

[misspickles]

Wow Twinkle! Youve given me loads of inspiration to pursue mine to the end . . . .this is a fab thread thanks!

wishing you lots of good fortune!

[Stevie T]

I thought it was the 11th! Not that is matters! good luck twinkle - surely the fact it's not on small claims will only make them more desperate to settle out of court?

[Nightstar]

KJ's on hols till 11/9/06, Best of luck twinkle.

[Welshman]

Got absolutely everything crossed for you. Good Luck!

[Spotted Dog]

Good Luck Twinkle we are all rooting for you !!

[Boobaby]

Here's wishing you lots of luck Twinkle (with extra star dust!!)

Twinkle twinkle little star,

I bet you wonder how you've come this far

With lots of help from all on site

I'm sure it has felt like a very long fight.

But just think how you'll feel when they crumble and you win,

It will all have been worth it when the money rolls in!!!

Good luck honey....

Boo

[caro]

AAAAAh Boooooooooooo. I love you poem.

[Mrgreengenes]

And since KJ is on hols until the 9th (I think).... that could prove tricky, lol.

 

I was told, by his staff, that KJ was off sick! Maybe the mountain of cases are finally getting to him.

 

I'm still waiting for my court date.

 

Best of luck Twinkle, and .........

 

 

 

Don't let the fatherless chillen get ya!

[twinkle]

Just a quick thanks for everyones comments.

 

Did receive a message on my phone yesterday from Mr Mcdonald (Barclays), obviously on behalf of KJ, as he's on holiday, wondering whether I could speak with him regarding my letter. Unfortunately I missed his call. If he wants to talk he can either ring back or send me a letter.

 

4 o'clock is looming! ;-)

[Mamma-Caz]

Good Luck - am thinking of you!!!

 

Caz:roll:

[caro]

It's 4.05 now. Any news?

[Boobaby]

Has anyone heard from Twinkle?

[twinkle]

Morning everyone!

 

Just to say that I received a letter from Barclays this morning, settling my claim but this does not include my AQ court fee or interest up to the point of settlement. So I will be sending them a letter stating that they pay the additional costs or to court we go.

 

It's not over yet!
