Ok so I've just got the judgement through today.

Principal sum 740.79 due 23rd may.

Fixed costs £530 due 23rd may.

I have filled a n245 out and offered to pay 50 per month.

How much is the fee os it £50 na d how do I enclose it.

Scandalous costs...small claims track is suppose to offer protection to litigants and be restricted...not more than the claimed amount.

Fixed costs £530 due 23rd may. ???? on £740.79 ??   made up of what?? 

[dave466]

I'm guessing

£315 court fees

£70 fixed costs

£135 lpc attendance

Dont know where the other £10 is from but in total they wanted £1193.80 costs and judge said no only fixed costs.

[AndyOrch]

So the £740.79 did not include the court fees and sols fees...thats the debt net ?

[dave466]

Yes that was the debt net before any court action.

[AndyOrch]

That makes a difference then...so even if you had not fought their application for SO/SJ and even if you did not defend the claim you would have had a judgment and costs of £1125.

[dave466]

Yes that would have been the case but at least it was worth a try.

So is the n245 application fee £50 and does it have to be sent with the application? If so how could I pay it as I dont have a cheque book.

Regards.

Yes it is Dave...you can pay using Debt/CC over the phone to your local county court.....you should also be able to email the N245 at the same time...check with your local CC

[dave466]

N245 completed and handed into court and they said that they would contact me for payment over the phone when they are processing the application.
