I've always understood that a pedestrian has right of way over traffic crossing the footpath. A pedestrian crossing a sidestreet has right of way over traffic turning into it (if they have already started crossing). A dropped kerb is usually to access a driveway by crossing the pavement. Garage forecourts tend to have proper entrance ramps except in a few situations. Either way the pedestrian has right of way, especially if they have already started crossing when the vehicle arrives.

That is OK. PM your claim details to a Mod for inclusion. Good luck!

Hi - you would be best asking your CCCS advisor before doing anything.

Hi - take a bit of time to read up first to make sure that you have the facts before going too far ahead. Read the FAQs and template letters then have a good read around here to see how others are getting on. Keep any progress on your own claim or questions that arise in a new thread in the forum for your bank to make it easier for others to follow and advise you. There's a set of links in my sig below that will help you find where all this useful information is. Well done for getting started!

Hi Rachel - the answer is up to you. If you take it further they will almost certainly be paying the full amount. The choice is yours as ever, but their reply is just plain lies. You will need to read up as much as you can as there is a small risk of it reaching a court hearing, but they aren't as daunting as they sound as long as you prepare properly. Start a thread in the HSBC forum for best advice.

Excellent news - well done!

They wouldn't for me and I had to start again for the new charges.

I have advised using the maximum overdrawn figure for the month ONLY when the balance on the interest date is above (or equal to) zero. If you don't do this then the interest for that month isn't included in the calculations and will be 'lost'.

Give 'em a little eXtra!

I'd recommend that you start your own thread in that forum to get the best advice. Keep to one thread to report your progress and ask any questions that come up.

They are indeed a subsidiary of HSBC. There's a sub-forum for First Direct in the HSBC Forum.
