Yeah, I know, just wanted to check it was right (without the spaces). OK, email sent. Subject line 'Barclays Leaflet - Requested by BankFodder' There are 6 pages; relevant info is on page 5, at the bottom of column 1.

Yes, I thought so too. I should point out that its a relatively recent leaflet, referring to changes that will 'come into effect on 30 October 2009'. I don't know if that makes it more interesting or less. It's a standard leaflet, sent to many, I would imagine. This would be greatly appreciated.

Hi, I had a claim pending with Barclays just before the court case started. They offered me £970 to settle, but I turned it down as it seemed like a kick in the teeth at the time. I wish I'd accepted now! Having read the current advice on this site, it seems we only have a case now if we can show that the bank called the charges something other than what they now claim them to be, i.e. proportionate to their costs, but reviewing my correspondence with Barclays (I don’t have my original T&C from 1997 but I have almost everything else) they seem to have always been very careful only to say that the charges/fees were 'legal, fair and transparent'. I have been through every statement and letter, but the only thing I have which I thought might be relevant is a leaflet titled 'Changes to your agreement with us' in which they state the following under the heading 'Changes to our charges': To me, this implies that the charges are directly related to the cost of the activity to Barclays, not a means of making profit, which clearly is not what they have said in the high court. I feel that this is evidence that Barclays have misrepresented their charges, and I am considering using this to further pursue my claim. I am asking for feedback and comments from all of you regarding whether you think I have a case or not. Thanks in advance for your advice and opinion. Fingers crossed!

Thanks for the links, but this only states what employers should do, it doesn't help me in my particular situation as it doesn't explicitly say that an employer cannot refuse me work based on my son previously having Swine Flu. Currently my employer won't let me work without a note from my doctor and my doctor refuses to provide one. He has given me a letter telling my employer that they won't give me a letter and directing them to the government advice, and also pointing out that the request is diverting resources away from patient care! Somehow I don't think this will placate my boss! Surely it is unfair to stop me working simply because my son was ill? I should say that I don't get paid if I don't work, and so this is seriously affecting the household budget. Can someone help?

I work part time as a waitress and I only work 2 shifts a week. A couple of weeks ago my 5 year old son got Swine Flu. I called my employer and we agreed that I would not come in for my two shifts that week but I asked that they rota me as usual the following week. The following week I called again and my employer decided that I should not attend, despite not having any symptoms myself. Now it is the third week. My son has returned to school and no other family members have become ill. I have called my employer to check I am on the rota to work this week, but I am not. Having spoken to my manager I am being told that I cannot return to work without providing a doctors note to them confirming that I am well. My GP will not provide such a note. Can my employer make this demand of me? I have not been ill or signed off work. I feel that I am in an impossible position and that I have effectively been sacked. What can I do? Please help!

Hi Saintly. Zoots post states that But as the judge was only looking at current T&C's, this is only true for these T&C's, right? I was under the impression that the older T&Cs were very specific that this was a breach, especially Barclays. This has been touched on in this thread: http://www.consumeractiongroup.co.uk/forum/oft-test-case-updates/139905-oft-wins-bank-charges-20.html Can you, or Zoot, or another expert clarify this point?

I may have this wrong, but didn't the judge conclude that there was no breach of contract within the current T&C's only? Some of the older T&C's are very explicit about this being a breach of contract.

BBC NEWS | Politics | Discs with 15m bank details lost So can the 15 million victims of this breach of the Data Protection act now claim compensation? ;-)

Pages 28 and 33 are missing from the document. Missing Annex G1 and G2. Also missing the individual responses to banks, referred to as schedule 1-8 in sections 1.1-1.8. Wonder what's in the missing parts? For the most part, what is there sounds good to me. Edit: Looks like the two missing pages have now been added. Still missing the other parts though.

Yup, pretty sure I did. The emails are from the same domain though, so I hope they didn't filter it because of this. It'll probably come through in a while. It's tragic that the red arrows petition has more than three times the signatures this one has.

Actually, you do get an email as you need to click the link in it to confirm your signature. It tells you this when you sign. I just got an email for myself (but still not for my partner), and my name is now on the list.

How long does it take to get the email after signing? I just added myself and my partner, but so far no email.

Thanks for all the responses. I have faxed it now and have a transmission slip. It probably won't matter, as the letter was a cheeky one asking them to up their good will offer, which they will probably ignore anyway!

Hi, I have a letter that must reach Barclays by 7th October. I have sent it today by special delivery to this address: BARCLAYS BANK PLC 1 CHURCHILL PLACE LONDON E14 5HP However, due to postal strike, they can't guarantee delivery before Wednesday! I want to cover myself as much as possible, so I want to fax the letter today. The only fax number I have is this one, found in http://www.consumeractiongroup.co.uk/forum/barclays-bank/208-email-contact-details-barclays.html#post545557: Barclays Legal & Compliance Litigation & Disputes Level 29 One Churchill Place London E14 5HP Tel: 020 7116 4753 Fax: 01452 638 359 Is this OK, or does anyone have a better number? I know Barclays will probably deny receiving the fax, but at least I've tried!

OK, so no info coming out today. The banks are still due to file their defences tomorrow. Will we get to see these? Or will we have to wait until the test case is over?
