Lol - my fault, I typed 'put' instead of 'out'. I think I have dyslexic fingers!

 

Anyhow, good news that you've got it officially started with courts and of course, it secured the extra 8% interest for you which I argue is always worth the extra effort of not accepting any poxy offers of pre-issue settlement from banks.

 

Have you MCOL'ed or gone straight to your local county court? If MCOL, remember by now you should have to sent Northampton and Barclays a copy of your Schedule of Charges as per your particulars of claim.

 

MCOL are running very slow (bogged down with nabk charge claims) however the timescales for bank to acknowledge etc remain the same as soon as you get a date of "served".

3 Active Claims:

Barclays Refund of Bank Charges (Sole account) - Applied to lift court ordered Stay

Barclays Refund of Bank Charges (Joint account) - Awaiting court date

Barclays Refund of Bank Charges (Joint account) Pre-6 yrs- LBA sent.

 

 

3 Wins :

Barclays t/a The Woolwich (Data Protection Act breach costs & compliance)

HSBC (on behalf of brother)

Settled Out of Court - £3,874.76

Alliance & Leicester (on behalf of friend)

Settled Out of Court - £723.41

I have gone the MCOL route. I have sent them 2 copies of my SOC. I have not sent to Barclays yet, as I am sure I read somewhere you have to wait until you know who is dealing with it!!!!! would that be right, if not what dept in Barclays do i send it too, and what address.

 

Oh and MCOL says that it has been 'accepted' and they 14 days to reply

I would send a copy of the SOC to Barclays Litigation Department at H/O* otherwise they are sure to come back with a Defence that includes the fact that you haven't provided a breakdown of the charges.

 

Send it attached to a courtesy letter including your MCOL Claim Number etc and send registered.

Just to let you know I sent off the SOC to Barclays at the address you gave Welshcakes, sent it special as well. So I guess now I just sit back keep reading and wait.

 

I so wish I was with Halifax, my friend at work sent her MCOL just a few days before mine and they have settled hers, about a thousand pound short of her 8k+ claim :p

Just received my Notice of Transfer of Proceedings, which looks like it is in Chelmsford County Court. It says that A&Q to be dispensed with unless District judge at court orders otherwise. How long does it take to get a court date from here and what do I do next?

Hi WHU

 

Only ringing the court will give you an idea of their own caseload, so that's your best bet.

 

At the moment there is nothing for you to do except trawl the site and the web for any more research pieces on pre-6yr cases. Next you will have a Notice from Chelmsford telling you one or a combination of the following whether the judge has decided to ask for an AQ to be completed, set a hearing date, requires you to serve more paperwork (which will be itemised).

 

Now, is just a waiting game for the post :)

Cheer yourself up in the knowledge that the interest you can claim also, at 8%, is growing and growing....

 

I've yet to receive an AQ but I know that my case will probably be stayed, hence I'm accepting their offer on one account and leaving the other to run it's course. Then, in 2025 when it's all over, I'll have a nice holiday ;)

Hi

 

If this is for charges on a normal current account then it is a non-starter these days unless you are claiming under the hardship rules.

 

Loans and credit card charges are still up for grabs though.

As of now, current account charges are a non starter. (Unless the hardship criteria apply)

 

Loans, Credit Cards and other Revolving Credit Accounts are available for reclaim.

 

What will happen in the future is an unknown.

My understanding is that charges relating to a mortgage (ie) late payments etc / returned DD/ can be reclaimed from Building Society/Banks etc. I am in the process of claiming these charges back from

Woolwich aka Barclays dating back to 2003. If this goes to court and Barclays claim the Limitation 6 year argument my answer will be the Limitation Act clock only starts ticking when i found out about the

charges being unlawfull (ie) Dec 2012

Hi there,

My enquiry at #45 is now a further 18 months down the line - still no developments?

Are there ANY details of cases (which one must assume, met with a degree of success) initiated by GLC but had gagging orders attached. Is it not reasonable to surmise that the cases in question will be a matter of public record where we can at least glean some useful background?

Hi Brown1950,

 

How's the reclaim for mortgage penalty chgs going.

 

I doubt Barclays will take you seriously at all unless and until you issue court action to recover the penalties plus interest.

 

Start a new thread for your case in the Barclays Bank forum as cases tend to go unseen here in the Woolwich forum.

 

:-)

We could do with some help from you

I think any cases were settled before court so there's no information. I contacted Mike Dailly to ask if/when we might hope to learn more, but for now GLC are having to prioritise fighting the bedroom tax.
