I sent my subject access request on 1st Feb and they cashed my £10 cheque on 12th Feb. From reading other peoples experiences I should hear back from them during this next week if all goes well. Fingers crossed and everything else just to be on the safe side.

Good Luck and keep us posted if you dont recieve them on time.

Hi sexy41 ---

 

Good luck with your Halifax claim. Whilst waiting for your statements to arrive, spend as much time as possible reading the threads in the Halifax forum - so you've some idea as to what to expect from them.

 

Halifax seem to be settling at different times, some after the LBA but some after court papers have been issued (dare I say that it seems to depend on who is looking at your claim ).

 

I found Halifax generally OK to deal with. Have a read of my thread to see how I got on with them (Not sure how to do a link to it, but click on my name at the side of this post and it will take to you my threads).

 

Remember to stick to your timescales and you will get all of your money back.

 

If you have any questions or need help, just post a message and someone will get back to you.

 

Best wishes.

hi just got an offer of halifax 600 they owe me 960 anyone help i dont know what to do take it and run or hold out help

Hi annmarie and steve --- at what stage have they given you the offer??

 

If the offer is in response to your prelim - send a part acceptance/LBA, stating you will pursue the remainder.

 

If the offer is in response to your LBA - you could try ringing them, stating that your next stage is court and ask them if they can up the offer. I did this and they upped from £1445 (their original offer) to what I was asking for of £2281. I did get a "slapped wrist" in the form of - "did I not realise it costs money to run the account when items are returned". I responded by saying yes I did appreciate that fact, but it did not cost £39 per transaction and that the interest alone would more than cover the costs incurred in running my account". That stumped them!!!!

 

Anyway, if you'd like to post a new thread of your own in the Halifax forum, we can all keep up to date with your progress.

 

Best wishes.

Thanks everyone for your reply. I do keep reading but sometimes it gets confusing and ends up going round and round in your head. One step at a time as the saying goes. I will be back with the next episode as soon as I do or do not receive a reply from them to my SAR letter.

Many thanks again everyone for your support.

I have just been onto the halifax as I have not had my reply to my subject access request sent 1/2/07. Very nice chap told me they have 40 working days to deal with it from the time they receive the request. Can anyone confirm this is correct? I had calculated 40 days from the day I sent the letter and have obviously made a boo boo.

Will keep you posted on my progress.
