Thanks once again for all your help

Thanks very much for all your help. Have you any idea the kind of things the judge might ask?

Hi Thanks for that. Probably a silly question, but what is a WS pre hearing?

Hi. I think I probably did waffle a bit with the claim I sent in. However, this was because of all the problem that NPower caused us. The application to have the case re-instated was only 1 page, and was more precise. I just need to know what to expect when I attend for the application hearing, and what the Judge will expect. Regards

Hi Andy. Thanks for your quick reply. I can't really put all the details on here because my claim is about 3 pages long. It deals with the way we have been treated by NPower and the errors on the bills going back a long time. When I first put the claim in, it was returned because I did not put an amount I was claiming. The court office suggested I put in a figure of £3000. In the application to have the case re-instated, I explained to the judge that this was never about claiming money from them, rather , it was to get NPower to sort out the mistakes they have made. Their defence was all about the £3000. How I arrived at that figure. There was nothing about the mistakes they had made. I have tried on a few occasions to try and sort out a payment plan for our bills, which are increasing since this case started. Each time I am told by NPower that because there is an ongoing court case, they are unable to sort anything out. I don't understand how the claim can not be CPR compliant, as it has been going for the last 8 months. I would have thought that if I had made a mistake, it would have been spotted earlier. The fact that I already had judgement against them seems to bear this out. Regards

Hi. Thanks for the reply. The letter from the court reads as follows: Upon reading pleading questionnaires filed by both parties and upon the claim as pleaded disclosing no cause of action in law. IT IS ORDERED THAT 1. The claim is struck out in accordance with the court case management powers under CPR 3.4. 2. Order made without a hearing. Either party may apply to vary or set aside within 7 days of service. I was devastated because I have all the evidence in the form of the errors on the bills, The fact that they did not follow the recommendations of the energy ombudsman, and the many emails from their customer complaints department. I just don't want to mess it all up when I go to the Application hearing. I'm not sure what I'm expected to say.

Hi. I'm new to the forum. I just need some advice. I am in the process of taking NPower to court because of billing mistakes for several years. I started the claim in May 2013. I was already awarded judgement in August due to NPwer not returning their defence in time. However, they successfully applied to the court to have it reversed. The same thing happened when they did not return the Directions Questionnaire in time. The court gave them another week to file it. (Which they did) Three weeks ago, I received a letter from the court to say that the case had been struck out. I was fuming after all this time. I applied to the court to have the case re-instated, and I have been given a 20 minute court date for the end of January. My main questions are, what happens at the court? do I need to take anything with me, and what will the judge expect me to say or do. Will NPwer be at this Application Hearing? As you can tell, I have never done anything like this before. I would appreciate any advice. Thank you.
