[TideTurner]

Just wanted to say this is my 500th post !!

 

mmmmmm........ now let me see,

 

500 posts at an average of 15mins each....

.......thats 125 hours

... at the standard rate of £9.25 an hour

...that's £1156.25

+ 29.85 interest, that's £345.14

.......................giving £1501.39

 

-plus of course...

Electricity at 25p per hour £31.25

about 200 cups of coffee at say 10p each, that's £20

60 glasses of wine at £1 each, .. thats's another £60

65 microwave dinners at £3.99 each, so that's £259.35

A cleaner at £8.25 ph for 20 hours..... another £165

plus of course printing postage and stationary say another £15

 

Total = £2051.99

 

.....this is gonna be an interesting bill for costs !!!

Guys,

 

The largest claims are going to come from damages which were caused as a direct result of something the banks did, or did not do.

 

Where would you be had the banks not acted the way they did?

Ha...very interesting question! What would be interesting to know is has anyone been successful in claiming back damages?

[TideTurner]

RedDeath,

 

I may be able to answer that shortly. But yes, from experience, they have tried.

[progenic7]

I am also applying damages to all of my claims (exemplory and aggravated damages), plus i am pushing for a form of compensation for inconvenience and my own costs. I do realise fully that under CPR the no costs rules usually applies, however i beleive i can make the judge see that the defence has acted unreasonably, and thus under CPR i can apply costs also.

 

My claims havnt been heard yet (TBH not even filed yet) though i will be filing atleast 2 of them this week coming.

I must also point out my thoughts on damages are nothing to do with Tom Brennans case. i actually got the idea from a claim i saw posted by "just won" many months ago.

And because i would relish actually facing the defence in court i wanted a means of leverage to force their hand into court, i beleive (like tom) this is about the only way it can be done.

Yes...I would relish the day in court as well. Just asking for them to disclose the true costs in relation to charges would be quite entertaining.

 

I'm going for damages as well and Brennan's case makes an interesting high profile tester case...

 

PM...sorry for hijacking this thread. The time must be close for you so I take it you may have gone underground at this stage. Good luck!!!

[TANZARELLI]

Is he a mole then? lol

[photoman]

Still here !!

Just been posting more on the Business claim thread I started in order to hopefully give and recieve advice more specific to Business claimants.

Don't mind the hijacks, but I do think the issues you've all discuseed would benefit from their own thread?

Just for the record:

No I am not a Mole (unless you consider being practically blind to the banks actions for many years, as a similarity to a mole)!!

Secondly, filed my N1 last week... won't be specific about the total claim for prudencde sake, but lets just say this is one claim I don't think they'll ignore !!

 

Regards to all

Tanz,

Don't worry, no offence taken.

Actually, if it had been a serious question, it would have been fair enough. I think with all the heightened publicity and pressure on the banks that I would really not put anything past them tactics wise.

There are, in my opinion, without a doubt some bank moles on this site, and sadly this does mean we have to show a degree of reserve with regards what we post.

I do want to post and help many others if I can (just as I have learnt so much from others), however we do need to be a little cautious regards personally specific tactics and personally identifiable info too.

To make an ad hoc comparison; During wartime if you discovered a great new weapon you wouldn't mind the enemy knowing you had a great new weapon, but you would not want them to know all about how it works, and how it can be rendered useless.

Found this which may be useful as it refers to some of the cases we are referring to also, even though it is in relation to construction:

Thanks Tanz

Had a quick read and useful. Backs up what we already know and believe.

Also a very useful website generally.

Thanks

Just by way of an update.

Yesterday, I recieved confirmation and case reference that my claim is deemed duly served upon Lloyds.

They have until May 4th to respond.

Looking forward to seeing what they have to say for themselves.

[Pondfish]

Good luck PM,

 

Watching with interest! (No not CI!)

Is this for all accounts pm?

 

Do you still think this is the biggest claim on the site?

 

I think with the pre 6 year claims that will soon be coming about, this won't be the case for long mate. lol.

This is just one of my accounts.

Other in the post this week, which will probably double the figures.

Even so, I do agree with you regards the SOL actions now being submitted........ I recived a PM from someone (I shall afford them anonymity), who think's their claim could reach £500 K !!!!

[Pondfish]

Wow 500K,

I wonder how much the Gesture of goodwill will be!!!!!!!
