chloe1705 v HSBC

[chloe1705]

I have a couple of questions if anyone would be kind enough to help

1.I am ready to submit to court but need to know do i just ignore the part at the bottom of the form which asks for solicitors name and address.

2.Where do i include that i would like the amount to be paid by cheque.

3.Does the form have to hand delivered to court or can it be posted to the court.

Many thanks for any help.

1. yes ignore it or type in n/a

2. it doesn't give you the option to ask for a cheque

3. you can post it (recorded delivery) or hand it in to your local court.

Hi

If someone could help me it would be much appreciated i have got as far as submitting my money claim sent off 3 copies off paperwork they acknowleged the claim on 17th april which means there are only 4 days left i have had no court date or defence what happens when the 4 days are up or are they likely to submit a defence in the next 4 days.

thanks

Most seem to defend at the very last minute, so i think you will just have to wait a little longer.

They had till monday (14th May) to defend mine - they did it this morning! so now I sit and wait to see if I get AQ or transfer.

Hi

I have received a notice of transfer of proceedings this morning and attached to it is a couple of sheets labeled defence and counterclaim do i need to fill this in and send it back.Also do i do an updated charges sheet aswell rather than the one i sent to mcol.

thanks for any help

Hiya Chloe, no you need do nothing, the paperwork you have received is just copies of DG Solicitors defence to your claim.

 

You will get a notification from your local court in the near future (try phoning your court if you have heard nothing in say 10 days) telling you how your local District Judge wants to handle the final stages of your claim.

Thanks for your help just one last question for my court bundle can i supply an updated statement of charges.

[chloe1705]

Hi

I have a court date for the 27th sept i have to send my court bundle in by the 20th july then hsbc have to respond by 17th august.I was just wondering if i could add new charges to my statement of charges or if i could only claim for what is originally on my statement of charges.

Hope this makes sense and thank you for any help.

[freakyleaky]

You have to stick to your original claim. If you were to ammend it now it would cost you £35 and it would also put your claim back and you would have to wait for another court date.

[Castlebest]

If HSBC are adding new charges you can try phoning your branch and explaining you are currently in litigation to recover the last 6 years charges and it would be a shame to start a new claim for the new charges and waste a whole lot more of HSBS's time and money but if they wont reverse them just start a second claim...

thanks for your help also on the info sheet it says

1.Allocation Questionnaires with:this claim is allocated to the small claims track.

I have received no aq what do i do?

thanks

[Castlebest]

Hiya Chloe, have a look here

also can you type out the directions you have on your court notification. not too sure why you have an AQ if you have already been allocated to the small claims track.

Hi all i really need some help.I have unfortunately had a virus and lost my windows had to format etc i have lost my statement of charges because of this it wont take to long to do another but i need to calculate the interest back to when i originally did the statement i dont know how to do this as i cant even remember what date it was.

please please help me.

thanks

[freakyleaky]

What stage are you at? did you send a prelim request for your money back? Have you filed your claim?

 

Have you got acces to the statements?

[chloe1705]

I have statements doing another statement of charges is not a problem its just working the interest out to tally what was on my mcol i am at the point where i need to submit my court bundle by the 20th july

[freakyleaky]

Well you need to work out your interest to the date that you filed your mcol. You can find this either on the paperwork from mcol or on the mcol site.

Just put all you figures into the spraedsheet as before but before you do this change the date on your computer to the date that you filed your claim.

Just hover your curser over the time and left click on it to change the date.

[chloe1705]
