Hi

 

I came across this very helpful site a few days ago when the Halifax took £195.00 in 1 week from my account. Knowing there was a direct debit due the next day so i was then hit with another £39 charge for a bounced dd. While reading on this site i came across alot of people talking about preliminary letter template please can someone advise me were i can find this.

Thank you for your quick reply

 

Do i need to send a letter to my own branch first telling them of my intentions, or do i just send of one of the templates sorry for being stupid as i have never did anything like this before and don't want to make a fool of myself

There is a lot to take in, and you would be very well advised to read up before starting to make a claim. This could end in court, so you need to be fully prepared. As Vamp said, there is a step by step instructions in the FAQ - this ought to be your first port of call.

 

When you are aware of all the issues, come back with specific questions about your claim and we will be able to help you.

 

Good luck.

Hi and welcome to the site.

 

You dont need to send them any statements, you need the statements to add up your charges. If you think you may have charges before March 2005 use the DPA letter in the library to get the rest. Enclose a £10 cheque andthey then have 40 days to send you your information.

 

Hope this clears things up for you

You can reply in writing if you wish stating that you will only accept full settlement. However, you've made it clear what you want and when you want it so you can just continue and start a Court claim.

HI

Since having makde a court claim against Halifax i received three more notications for bank charges with the dates printed on them telling me the money would be deducted form my account on a certain date, For example one dd tried to be taken earlier than the normal date therefore incuring a charge of £39 I was told by halifax that the charge would be taken from my account on 31 july and was taken today from my acount when there wasn't enough money to cover this charge therfore leaving my account in the red therefore incurring more charges

I am totally disgusted with this Halifax are playing really dirty

So now what do i do

many thanks

You will need to wait until this claim is concluded, then start from step 1 again from these additional charges. Hopefully they should pay up a bit quicker second time round.

That is correct - Moneyclaim only deal with claims for people in England and Wales - you will need to submit a claim through the courts in Northern Ireland.
