Krysta and Dino are the stars of the team. They actually tend to do what they promise.

hi had court for both mine + hubbys claim for 21st august 2007... what now then?? have sent schedule of charges to be attached to particulars of claim as did mine on mcol!!! not heard from lit team (krysta or dino) should i be sending nudge letter or just best to ring up??

welshcakes · 10th July 2007, 19:27

Hi syds mum

The advise seems to be to ring the Lit team and ask them if they want to discuss a settlement in view of the forthcoming court hearing - unless they ask, don't explain that it's only the Directions/Prelim.

Has the court Notice requested that you send anything by a certain date?

syds mum · 10th July 2007, 20:46

not got it thu yet rung the court to chase it up and been proccessed today so should get it tommoz!!! my claim agaist hsbc has directed bundle in 21 days from service of notice so expecting the same!!! will let you know!!!

syds mum · 12th July 2007, 09:49

hi there!!! just had court dates thu for me (21st sept) hubby (21st aug), but the exciting news is that the judge has not!!! i repeat HAS NOT!! DIRECTED FOR ANYTHING OTHER THAT SCHEDULE OF CHARGES!!! NO STATEMENT OF EVIDENCE, NO BUNDLE!! NOTHING!!!! how good is that? now my question is does this mean they are at last getting fed up of all the paperwork they are getting and know the banks are settling just before hearing date and its a total waste of trees??!!!

any body there?????

Hi Syd Mum

That is great news. So you have received an Order from the local court judge only asking you the Claimant to submit your Schedule of Charges? Superb. Make sure you send in (registered) before the deadline and ring to make sure they've received it. Alternatively, take it down if it's easy enough to park.

You may wish to put in a covering letter that advises that the SOC contains an updated 8% which is why the claim total figure has increased since the original submission.

Does the Order require anything from the Defendants?

syds mum · 12th July 2007, 12:06

hi welshcakes... yes its asking for copy of contracual document they rely on + is charge accepted as penalty if not why not + evidence relied upon!!
this is great no need for court bundle!!! but they still got to do one!! how good is this???

i have posted full directions on HSBC thread if you want a look under HSBC bank charges autolinker.com autolinking image

(its my thread...) and directions for both barclays and HSBC are the same for me and hubby!!!

syds mum · 12th July 2007, 12:50

you still there welshcakes??? did you find directions on hsbc thread?

welshcakes · 12th July 2007, 13:48

Hi syds mum

No need for me to look at HSBC - from your post above regarding the requirements of court from Barclays, you've already won, it's just a formality now.

Time for you to ring Barclays Litigation department and suggest settlement! Whatever Lit department promises, do not stray from complying with your side of the Order to submit SOC on time unless of course you have the cleared funds in your account. If that happens, you simply fax court with a Notice of Discontinuance. I can link you to that letter but for now, just make the call and see if Barclays want to play ball...you may want to read out the Order to them if they aren't forthcoming

syds mum · 12th July 2007, 19:37

just need to clarify.. sending in my SOC again as directed from judge but wondered if i need to update it as mine was done dated from march 2007... can go to speadsheet and change date to today and welshcakes advised a covering letter... no probs but unsure if i need a updated version or just send copy of one i have (done in march)

saintly_1 · 12th July 2007, 20:08

.. which court is it?! I am hoping to not have to do a court bundle. Nearly at court with Nat West and just started with Barclays.. feel as if it's gonna be a long road...!

syds mum · 12th July 2007, 20:34

derby court love.... got 4 claims in total 2 hsbc + 2 barclays mine and hubby.. 3 of which have directions as mentioned... the other i have got full bundle to do about 200 pages + oh joy... but as least only got to do it once and not 4 times over like i thought... i have to say it took me by surprise!!! been in great mood all day!!! started mine in march so not to bad... last leg now... if you do need bundle dont worry does look daunting but once you get your head round it quite easy!!!

where are you?

thanks saintly.. does it have to be updated version then?
