[pinkduchess]

netty - yep, its great

 

pete - your posts are the most entertaining. Even though this is a serious matter it makes it easier to cope.

 

btw do you like my avatar?

[Castlebest]

Why thank you PD makes it all worth while when people get what they wanted and say thank you (see swampy) . In truth I think we are a team all of us rely on the others to produce a brilliant resource.

bong said to me (and i don't mean to cast aspersions but she's been around a lot! lol) that ours is the best forum for getting info to everyone - newbie and all claimers (don't tell those peeps who were arguing on my thread the other night!!!!!)

and you late night owls should get either get an award or treatment for insomnia in my book - i'm sure you provide a great service for others who can't sleep!!!!

[pinkduchess]

treatment i think!

[Castlebest]

I got my treatment today YEAH !!!!!!!!!!! and have drafted a lovely little note to Uncle Colin for claim 2, but you will have to wait to see that

pete

[pinkduchess]

I want some of that!!

 

Do you think my claim will be classed as more complicated as I have added on the overdraft interest?

[Castlebest]

Gawd no, they must have seen Vamps spreadsheet a thousand times, probably have blank copies of it on their computers so they can check.

You will get your offer soon, just sit tight and watch, and type daft stuff here when you get bored

pete

[pinkduchess]

I hope so

 

that last bits easy then - I'm doing it already

[Castlebest]

good, legal stuff is very dry, you have to inject a little humour into it when you can, by the way I don’t think I ever said I loved your anagram of Uncle Colin’s name

pete

[pinkduchess]

i nearly read that as you'd never told me you loved me than!!!!!!!!

[Castlebest]

PD ... people are watching!!

[pinkduchess]

[Castlebest]

Well now my first claim is all but settled, apart from the basic final spiting and slapping I can concentrate on yours (gawd help ya)

[pinkduchess]

''apart from the basic final spiting and slapping''

after thinking about awhile back - i came to the conclusion that i don't like the litigation section - as it gives claim no. and amount and must make it extremely easy for anyone reading it to put names to the claims (some are even in their names) and for banks/solicitors to cross ref and then follow the threads, noting hesitance, or whatever and seizing on weaknesses - maybe just my paranoia slipping in - but why give them anything?

 

for example - we have a lot of shaky people who have been defended and are waiting for offers - wouldn't dg have an advantage knowing who is thinking what and trying which tactics? maybe too big brotherish to worry about - but, just a thought.

[pinkduchess]

hmm....don't like the thought of that either

[Castlebest]

Hiya PD, Just a thought about contacting DG. I didnt call them at all untill the 4th April (left voice mail) and you know what I got on the 8th so I would phone just under a week before your 28 days are up, see if this brings your file to the top at the right time like it did me.

 

pete

[pinkduchess]

hi Pete - thanks for the advice. I'll go with that & call them next week. You never know. Somehow i don't think I'm gonna get away without going through the next stage though.

 

why do you think they never defended yours?

[Castlebest]

Laffin, they did today, late as always but I’m waiting to see what reaction I get to my letter so the legal side of my claim is still rolling.

It highlights the two pronged attack you have to employ, you have to carry on with the court paperwork to keep your claim in the ball park legally but all the time that’s actually only important because it’s forcing DG into a time frame to make an offer. It must be really annoying the District Judges because they are just being used by the banks to put people off claiming and they know it.

[pinkduchess]

why did they do that?

 

they are paying out so much more by getting people to file at court in court fees & 8% interest. is it because they know a certain percentage of people won't go that far?

 

and why were you so lucky

 

why why why - i sound like a toddler!

This must be the case.

some "other" sites maintain that this is a negotiation... it is not. They owe the money, you want it back. A lot must give up half way through else they would just pay up.

[givememymoney]

Yeah I know of 4 people at work who haven't used this site and settled for 80% and no interest. Oh well
