I did my best today to have the stay removed but it wasn't good enough - I LOST!

The Judge wasn't interested, he said he was not qualified to make the decision and it was best to leave it to the high court! He didn't even want to see my court bungle and the solicitor representing Barclays just quoted a lot of legal jargon that i did not understand. The only thing that the Judge was interested in was saying how much of his time had been taken up by Bank Charges hearings! Barclays little weasel scurried off with a smile on his face when the Judge refused to lift the stay - I think it was a case of my time being wasted not he Judges as it was a dead cert of the outcome before i even got in the room - GUTTED

Ah well-

 

just think of how much extra compound interest they are going to have to pay you at the end!

[bigalis]

What compound interest is that?

The courts will allow you to charge 8%p.a.

the bank owes me £3k thats less than £20 per month.

When I receive my settlement I will pay off the £3k Barclaycard bill I owe that they are able to charge about £50 interest a month on so it will cost me £1 a day in added interest until this is settled.

You didnt calculate the compound interest you were charged on your charges, did you?

[car2403]

You aren't guaranteed to get compound interest awarded as part of your claim, but you can get simple interest if it's included in your claim - and, of course, you're assuming you're going to win!

[noomill060]

Charges + Interest levied thereon until date of settlement= Claim

 

 

 

End of.

 

 

(Naturally, County Court interest is payable @ 8% simple at the discretion of the Court)

[noomill060]

Im not going down this road again- if took me long enough to work it out for myself!

 

All money they have unlawfully debited is reclaimable.

 

The interest you have been scammed into paying on your unlawful charges was just as unlawfully debited as the charges, and you can claim it back using the same arguments as the charges.

 

Add charges and interest levied thereon, and that is the principal of your claim, compound interest accruing at a daily rate until settlement.

[noomill060]

How much of your Barclaycard bill is accounted for by charges and interest on those charges?

 

Claim it back.

Chester County Court are now issueing blanket stays.

[becci]

Stratford upon Avon County Court are proceeding on a case by case basis.

Hi All,

My claim against Barclays has been defended, with the statement below.

Does this mean that it will be stayed?

 

Thanks

 

"Defence

You are unable to take any further action online on this claim.

 

The Defendant disputes the whole amount you have claimed. Your claim cannot proceed online and will be transferred to the appropriate court for continuation. You will receive confirmation to where the claim has been transferred to shortly."

No it just means that it can't proceed any further with MCOL. Your case has to now be dealt with by post/phone etc...

[cluel3ss]

Hiya's

 

My case has been transferred to Romford County Court, I rung them a few weeks ago and they told me that the Court is not granting any of the banks any stays, I'm in court on Friday 14th Sept 2007.

 

Take care

Quick Question....

i had my case stayed on 30th Aug in Kingston along with about 20 others. Is it worth me applying for a lift on the stay? i am suffering financial hardship as a result of the outcome and Barclays have continued to charge me (£430 since initial claim). Should i apply or just keep my £35 which will pay my electric bill??

[shan cc]

Hi, my case was won on the 19th of July because of a lack of defense by the bank, the oft went to the high court on the 28th.

 

So my case was won 9 days before that, does anyone know how i stand legally? they tried to apply for a stay for this reason and have changed their minds to an administration error!

 

Im in court tomorrow (13/09/07)

 

Shan.

definately, I would go for a lift of stay stating your financial harship and in the alternative request that Barclays stop applying charges untill the test case has been decided as it is putting you in financial hardship and advise the court that you have had a further £430 in charges. I did read somewhere that Barclays were not going to object to stays being lifted but how true that is I do not know.

 

I have also read that that the test case may not now proceed! there was an article on the BBC a couple of days ago and the OFT may announce this shortly. If you find this article in the news section I would take a print out of that article and send it in with your lift of your stay. I have just found it for you.

BBC NEWS | Business | OFT may compromise on bank fees

Let us know how you get on.

i'll keep you posted

Thanks

 

N244 and £35? is that right?

[georgieboy]

Try checking with the court, give them a ring as some courts are NOT charging a fee for applying for the removal of stays, good luck.

[TUTTSI]

Yes £35 without you attending and I believe it is £65 if you want to attend. I would either check on line or phone the courts for guidance. It may be easier and wiser to plead your case in person, because then you can explain to the judge how their charging regime is putting you in fincial hardship.

I phoned Birkenhead County Court this week regarding my case tomorrow and was told to turn up as planned. Fingers Crossed (and legs,arms and toes!)

What have you been asked to turn up for?

[melanielouise24]

The woman who answered said yes, turn up as planned because it would go ahead as normal. Reading all other posts though, this is obviously not the case. Is there any point in losing even more money by taking time of work!
