Im wondering if she has the softwear to read pdf format

[nickyc]

Thanks both, I've got it sorted. Acrobat normally just opens automatically but this time I needed to open the programme first. I'm just filling it in now!

Hi Nicky

 

Also expecting to be in Nottingham court sometime in not to distant future. Just saying hello!

[nickyc]

Hi Jilly! Will keep an eye on your thread too. I think you're probably ahead of me too. Best wishes,

[nickyc]

Thanks Dar£n! That looks fairly hot off the press! Will redo them over the week and deliver on Monday

Yes, about to send in court bundle - but looks like we may all be on hold after this latest announcement!!! God, hope I havn't done all this work for nothing!!!

[nickyc]

Keep the faith Jilly!

Will confess at this point to not keeping to my own advice above :o I kind of lost the faith when various people told me I'd never win now, and what with my recent birthday, impending holiday, and other bits of life, just lost the plot really. My b/f has just given me a kick though and told me to sort myself out :o

 

A few weeks ago I was sure about my next step. Now I'm a little nervous about getting it wrong.

 

Do I use the new PoC from the sticky above?! The format looks a bit different from the one I drafted. Does it all fit on the form? And if not am I allowed to type more?

 

I received one of the standard letters from Barclays at the end of July. Does this have any impact at all?

 

One heartening factor... from another post I've read tonight, it seems that Nottingham are adopting a business as usual approach.

 

Thanks in advance

Hi Nicky

 

Everyone should now be using the new POC from now on. It is a lot longer and if you have downloaded the .pdf N1, you can increase the length of the N1 by adding pages - I added two more to the body to accommodate the new Particulars version.

[nickyc]

Hi Welshcakes,

 

Thanks for the reply! Will get back on it, but perhaps not tonight... too knackered to avoid mistakes. Many thanks,

Hi Nicky

 

Cant help with the new POC's as already submitted mine long time ago. But dont get disheartened, I know it all feels pretty uphill at times. I felt a tremendous feeling of relief when I finally delivered my court bundle, even tho this was 2 days after the news about the OFT test case. I'm remaining optimistic that the banks will lose and we'll still get whats due to us - remember there's alot of consumer pressure out there, AND WE'RE STILL PART OF IT!! Have faith and keep smiling:)

[nickyc]

Thanks Jilly! Will be keeping an eye on yours to see how Nottingham is going! Good luck x

Update -

Letter from Nottingham County Court to say all cases being stayed pending the outcome of test case - prob Feb2008!!!!!!

[nickyc]

Gutted!

Hi all,

 

I got a series of letters last year and early this year from Barclays keeping me updated on the (lack of) progress with my claim. Recently it's all gone quiet though.

 

I've had a look on here but can't seem to see a general update (sorry if I'm being blind) What's the current state of play if you're not a hardship case?

 

Thanks,

Hi NickyC,

 

Try here - http://www.consumeractiongroup.co.uk/forum/oft-test-case-updates/

 

My understanding is this will be likely to remain unresolved for many months still.

[nickyc]

Cheers Slick. I knew it must be somewhere!

[nickyc]

Just read this thread...

http://www.consumeractiongroup.co.uk/forum/oft-test-case-updates/139971-oft-abbey-others-april.html

 

If you have not yet put in a claim but have written your preliminary letter do continue to make a claim so that you can claim your interest. If you wait until the outcome of the final decision it is unlikely that you will be able to file a claim as assuming the court rules in the consumer's favour the banks are likely to pay out on receiving complaint without waiting for you to file a court claim. In which case you will lose out on the valuable interest.

 

Does this mean i should still submit court bundle?? I'd understood before that this wasn't worth doing til the decision. I got mine all ready to go but then sat on it waiting. Did i do the wrong thing??

 

Cheers, nickyc

Hi Nicky,

 

Having read back through your thread, it looks like you didn't get to File your claim at court on the N1.

 

You should file your claim at court anyway to:-

 

1. Avoid losing out on older charges which may fall beyond 6 years when the OFT case is resolved.

 

2. Ensure you are earning s.69 Statutory Interest while the claim is Stayed.

 

Update your SOC and File the N1 at your local court.

 

Does this mean i should still submit court bundle??

This has nothing to do with a Court Bundle, which is the bundle of evidence which you wil rely on to prove your case in court in due course.
