dylon vs the woolwich

[feater]

Hy Dylon

 

 

If you mean Summary of Charges then yes, I'd put them in. I have just done a bundle for Abbey and have included them all again... for the sake of a couple more copies it's not worth the risk of not including them. Good luck.

[dylon]

Hi all,has anyone been able to send a email to anyone a barclays because I have tried four times today and it keeps coming back as user unknown I sent off my court bundle's today hoping that they will settle,any help with the email thing will be great.

[welshcakes]

What email address are you sending to Dylon?

[dylon]

Sorry about the delayed reply welshcakes,the email address I've been using is robert [email protected] is this correct?

[dylon]

Thanks for the advice feater I've done what you said and it's in the post to them right now.

[welshcakes]

Hi dylon, Barclay email address are normally first [email protected]

 

eg [email protected]

[dylon]

That's what I did but came back as user unknown.

[dylon]

I think I now know where I went wrong I did't put the . between the first name and surname would that make any difference?

[welshcakes]

Yes The dot is crucial

[dylon]

I just sent an email to katherine ashton at barclays and it hasn't came back yet,thank god for the ................... .

[dylon]

Thanks welshcakes yet again.hopefully they will settle now as the court date is only 2 weeks away.

[dylon]

Has anyone got any news about yesterdays court case with the oft and the banks can we carry on claiming our charges back???

[puggtiracer]

My Dad has just spoken to me on the phone - he heard on the radio that cases may be put on halt pending this OFT thing......

 

He also said that he probably missheard it....let's hope so!

[welshcakes]

I'm afraid the official statement is that the UK banks will be requesting of all courts that all current claims are Stayed pending Test Case Outcome.

 

I also think it is very, very likely that the courts will agree (hopefully some will get a Maverick judge who carries on regardless!) Problem being, such judgements could likely be successfully appealed and reversed into status of Stay in line with rest of UK.

[puggtiracer]

Any idea on a timescale and likely outcome?

[welshcakes]

1) None and 2) hopefully justice

 

are most honest answers I can give.

 

Wish I had a Crystal Ball pugg

[dylon]

Thanks again welshcakes for the reply not the answer I wanted to hear with my court date being so close and hopefully a settlement,I got a pm from cag saying that "Yesterday just saw the lodging of papers by OFT so no progess just manatory papers in order for the case to proceed"the Nationwide will be honouring all agreed settlements,lets hope barclays will do the same.

[dylon]

Hi all just a update I sent off my court bundle on friday to barclays HO and emailed katherine ashton on monday about a settlement surprise surprise no answer so I have emailed robert saunders tonight to see if I get a reply you just never know it's worth a try if I hear anything I will post it on this thread.

[dylon]

Another update,Iphoned the court today and I was told the hearing is still going ahead [13th of August] no reply from Mr Saunders to my email yet me thinks they are playing a waiting game to see if I bottle out, well they are in for a surprise I will go all the way with this in for a penny and all that stuff.I wonder if they know the court case is going ahead,does any think it'as worth a email to let them know that the hearing is still on?

[welshcakes]

No Dylon, I think it's worth keeping stumm and hoping that they don't turn up in which case you win by Default

[dylon]

Cheers welshcakes,do you think that they think all claims are on hold pending the outcome of the OFT case,I will do as you say mums the word lets hope they don't turn up then,I need a holiday badly and the money that I have coming back to me will fund that nicely.

[welshcakes]

I think there's been many incidences of Barclays not sending a rep to the court because they 1) have thought the case settled 2) have been so disorganised as to lose track of claims and court dates and now 3) If there are mass Stays for other bank charge cases on the day at your court, they make consider all Stayed and not be there for the few that still go ahead.

 

In any of these events, take along a breakdown of your costs in prusuance of the claim as many judges are also awarding these when the Defendant is a no show on the day. Unless the judge asks, yo need to request costs as it's no mandatory but it is a great opportunity to accentuate all the time and effort you've been forced to spend by a Defendant that had no intention of turning up on the day!

[dylon]

Thanks welshcakes,what do you mean by a breakdown of my costs?by the way I phoned the court again to find out if barclays have requested a stay and as of yet they haven't do you know if there is a time limit on this or can they leave it until the last moment?

[welshcakes]

Hi Dylon

 

Basically your costs & expenses, basically seeking costs against Barclays. I can PM you an example (Word document) if you need it.

 

Whilst they can turn up and request it at the hearing, any good judge would be miffed at this as courtroom courtesy expects parties to provide a 2 day grace before the day.

 

Really up to the judge - he might be the sort who orders an adjournment and gives the Defendant more time (won't be the first time that's happened).

 

So it's a case of go to the hearing positive and politely. Just because you're litigant in person, doesn't mean you should feel in anyway less equiped than some office junior from B's solicitors. Be firm and clear about you want

[dylon]

Thanks welshcakes for the quick reply,if you could PM me the example it would help a great deal,asa regards the hearing I state that I would like all the monies back that barclays have taken from me in the way of penalty charges and how the charge does not reflect the true cost of returning a DD or cheque etc.and could the defendent show some proof of this to me and the court!Good or what do you think?
