Sheared???? That means it's naked!

 

Can we have a close up of just the sheep........I mean hat, in that case!!!!

[caro]

Can I ask for less of the hijacks please. I too am keen to learn what's gone on, and every time someone posts get the usual alerts. It also makes it harder for others to follow the thread.

[lateralus]

caro - can't you use your mod status and send him a real e -mail to see what's happened?! it's nervous energy!

[Audreygreeneyes]

I will send him an email lattie, as he contacted me last week and asked for some help and copies of stuff. which i sent so will emial him..............

 

sorry mod did nto think we were hijacking.......

[chunkylinc]

Ahhhhhh Im back, soz off work ill and then on hol for a couple of weeks, so that's just about taken up all my time..... Actually you guy's were right that was just my cover for runnin off with Rachel Thomlinson to have lots of little 'mini thomlinson' clones so that they can also work mind numbyingly at DG. It was a fri nite, we met at an un disclosed location, she was the one wearing a yellow carnation....However she was a bit of a minger so I had to sink several voddies and the unfortunatly couldnt get it up, so nowt happened and im back....lol.

 

Ta for your concerns, but im alive and I've not settled with them yet. a bit of a quick update....

 

I attended the hearing, I thought I'd be on my own, but when I got to court there was approx 40 other people there. Most people got called in for the first hearing (inc me) where the judge explained to everyone that All cases were being put on stay and he then answered a few questions. The court gimp then realised that I should actually be in the 2nd hearing because HSBC & Barclays had sent along a barrister, so I remained seated, joined the 2nd sitting and listened to the whole lot again....

 

Upon return home I found the following two letter in the post pile...

 

1) Letter from DG referring to the order granted by Norwich County Court dated 23rd Aug 07 and to refer to the terms of that orer and that further info on the test case was available at the OFT's website.

 

2) General Form of Judgment or Order (whatever the hell this is? I'll type what it says below, but this is the first and only correspondence I've had with the court since the hearing and since sending the court the letter trying to get the stay removed)...

 

Before District Judge Sparrow sitting at Norwich County Court.....

 

Upon neither party attending

 

It is Ordered that

 

1) Save as appears in this order, this action be stayed pending the final decision (being judgement in the action or the appellate court, whichever is later) in the test case between OFT V Abbey National Bank plc & the others or further order of the court.

 

2) The defendant shall by 4:00pm 14th Sept 2007 or by 4:00pm 21 days from the date of this order whichever is the later serve on the claimant a copy of the Particulars of Claim in the test case or notify the claimant of a website where the statement of claim may be viewed and downloaded

 

3) The Defendant shall within 21 days of the final decision in the test case file at court and serve the claimant: a) A case summary of not more than 500 words setting out the effect of the fihnal decision in the test case on this action. b) their proposed direction in this case.

 

4) Upon receipt of the documents set out in paragraph3 of this order the file be referred to a district judge to onsider further directions.

 

5) Either party may apply to vary or discharge this order, provided that any apploication is made in accordance with part 23 of the civel procedure rules and made on 21 days notice.

 

dated 07th Aug 2007.

 

 

 

Well I aint really got a freaking clue what that's all about and was quite surprised to find that on the floor upon return as I didnt think I'd be hearing anything further till the out come of the test case. I did take a look on the site DG recommended (The Office of Fair Trading: making markets work well for consumers) but there wasnt really anything of use on there. Does anyone know how the test case is going? Im actually quite tempted to accept DG's latest offer as it's still valid by another 5 days? so as long as I get the acceptance letter sent off tomorrow 1st class recorded delivery then I should be ok, unless anyone knows a better strategy at this particular moment in time........

[jowalshy]

Welcome back CL, we thought you had disappeared on us.

 

The test case doesn't start until January 2008. There have been a few things in the press regarding the OFT and the test case. Pete will probably have some links for you. As the date of your order was 7th August and it gave you 21 days to do anything about it, I have a feeling you may have missed the boat on the lifting of a stay thing.

 

As for accepting theri previous offer, the decision is entirely up to you.

 

Did you get the POC from DG?

[chunkylinc]

the what? POC ?

[freakyleaky]

Well POC stads for particulars of claim but I don't know why dg would be sending them to you! Or have I missed something Jo?

[jowalshy]

2) The defendant shall by 4:00pm 14th Sept 2007 or by 4:00pm 21 days from the date of this order whichever is the later serve on the claimant a copy of the Particulars of Claim in the test case or notify the claimant of a website where the statement of claim may be viewed and downloaded

 

 

This is what was posted

[freakyleaky]

Ah now it all becomes clear!

So there you go CL. They should have sent you a hard copy or at least a website address.

[jowalshy]

I would be interested to see this POC.

[lateralus]

if they haven't complied then they are again in violation of the court directions and i'd be letting the court know double quick - like applying for a judgment? come on guys, let's think this through - what can he do - they've failed to follow court directions - can the stay be set aside because of this? - - this is complicated, cl, i know it's a struggle - but let's see if we can't get an opinion of this before you take the latest offer - btw - don't sign it if it says you'll never, ever be able to claim from them again - they have done this before and that puts you in a bad position in my opinion.

 

SO, BUMPTY, BUMP - LET'S GET SOME OPINIONS HERE.....

[Audreygreeneyes]

i would go for judgement.... if am not mistaken this will be the 2nd time they have done this......
