me v NATIONWIDE @ COURT (will need help please)

[janinem1974]

HI.

i filed for charges plus interest (£900+) at my local court as Nationwide completely IGNORED all my letters etc.

 

I have had confirmation that they have filed an ACKNOWLEDGEMENT of SERVICE and have stated they intend to defend ALL OF THE CLAIM.

They now have 28 days to file a defence.

 

What do I need to do to start preparing for this?

 

Any help and advice much appreciated.

(hopefully they may settle before and so far they have kept my account open.)

 

Thanks

nationwide nearly always refund you then tell the courts in the defence that they have refunded you in full.

 

mine was refunded 23 days after the courts papers were deemed served.

Hiya Janine,

 

You might want to read up on the what to do next - 'just in case'. Although it seems probable that they will pay up, I always imagined my claim would go to court, then if/when they settled before the 28 days are up it would be a bonus.

 

Being prepared is half the battle one!

Read up on this link. If they don't pay up, this will be the next stage.

Hi Janinem,

I am at the same stage as you and have received the same acknowledgement of service.I think the reply by Wobbles is found to be similar to other cases.

Hi all, progress report here!

I reported Nationwide to the Financial Ombudsman Service (FOS) 2 weeks ago who said they had contacted Nationwide who would investigate my complaint and contact me.

 

I have had a letter from Nationwide today stating:

 

"you told us you didnt believe we should have debited the charges to your account,so you have asked us that these be refunded, even though you agreed to the t&c applicable to the account when you first opened it.

Im sorry your unhappy about the charges that were levied and i understand these are now in the process of being refunded, that being the case we consider this matter to now be resolved".

YYYYIIIIPPPPPEEEEEEE!!!!!!

 

This is the first letter i have had from Nationwide in MONTHS, not yet had the refund or any more communication about their court defence but it looks promising.

Will let you all know when i get my dosh back!

 

good luck to everyone else too.

[janinem1974]

HELLO

 

SUCCESS!!!!!

 

i had a reply from court saying Nationwide are going to defend their claim, BUT,

 

THEY PAID EVERYTHING THEY OWED, PLUS INTEREST I CHARGED, into my bank account last week.

 

PERSERVERE, even though they say they are going to defend, please stick with them.

 

THANKS TO EVERYONE HERE FOR ALL YOUR SUPPORT AND ADVICE and GOOD LUCK to EVERYONE WHO IS CLAIMING
