I suppose ultimately it's that the charges, regardless of your T&C's are considered unlawful but will check about, is it just the T&C's for when I opened my account then? I think I opened my account when I was 16, so in 1999 or 2000.....

hmmmm The court closes at 4pm today, I'm at work with no T&C's...... Everything else is ready but I literally have to get this in topday before 4pm otherwise next week will be taking the mickey a little... Will check through the T&C's thread but may need to shove anything in there..... A bundle with no T&C's? Would that be bad news?

FINAL QUESTION BEFORE BUNDLE GOES TO COURT: It states on the COurt Bundle thread that I need the relevant T&C's. I presume I just grab them & put them in and also reference them in the bundle? Do I need current, or ones of reference over the periods??

will do! can see it now "barclays win first case against lad who simply didn't prepare" lol

just spoken to someone at Barclays & apparently since everything went mad they have taken around a million requests for archived information regarding old statements which is insane! i know the company I work for has trouble with archived information anyway & some past x years we don't even have to keep, imagine that's why it's up to 6 years! anyway, they have put in a request as urgent however cannot prmise that I will get my statements, I did narrow it down to the from & to dates where I have charges in the hope it'll speed things up. Now I'll just do the rest & also hope maybe I could find the statements at home anyway..... always a slim chance!!! Good fun!

haha, many thanks though the bundle shouldn't take that long but me being me thought I had everything & since I moved out, it's all gone everywhere which is such a pain as I'm usually very organised!!! (honestly!)

congratulations I seriously wish that all cases were that easy!!

Many thanks again, would you suggest that I do not now add my initial request for the 6 years of statements because this would imply that I have received them?

From moving house 3 months ago I think I may have mislayed the original bundle of statements that was sent from barclays and all my workings were done from these..................... Think everythings shafted

Each party shall deliver to every other party and to the court office all documents (including any experts’ report) on which he intends to rely at the hearing no later than 12 June 2007 Yes the above is very strange I agree I will get the bundle done as it doesn't take too long anyway & then maybe send to barclays & instead of sending, take to the court myself which is 5 minutes from here at work

I rang the court and they couldn't tell me what type of hearing it was as they can't go into that....?? The girld just said it's a small claims hearing!

hello again after thinking about this last night would it actually be a good idea for me just to leave this be until the court date as they will 99.999999% definitely stay my claim anyway? they have the particulars of claim from me now and a full list of charges so I thought it may be a bad idea for me to try & fiddle the deadline a bit & send my court bundle in late as this could simply draw further interest to my case? bottom line is that what I have provided is adaquate for the case, maybe not above & beyond but as it's gone to test case I should be OK shouldn't I? Do you see what I mean by not trying to now send in something over deadline which doesn't "have" to be sent in?

I'm not sure what it is.... Just says "HEARING" on my court letter

ok thank you i will get my bundle sent off today or maybe tomorrow as some paperwork is at home (statements etc) special delivery all the way & yes the covering letter thing sounds like a plan

sorry that's quite a lot to take in so I will sort out my court bundle today & send that off in hope that they do not take notice of the 12th June date they supplied me with initially otherwise I have my initial documents to stand by & full list of charges but the court bundle will be the winner I guess just to confirm also, I have also let myself down with dates so I wouldn't have thought it be useful trying to get barclays defence thrown out or should I anyway? welshcakes, many thanks for the responses. so do you think they may be open to settle? I had a response from teh Lit team saying they will most probably stay the hearing

Time for a new thread Previous thread ( mikejames1 vs Barclays] ) Court date is on the 14th August 2007 Some notes from the letter I received from the court: Each party shall deliver to every other party and to the court office all documents (including any experts’ report) on which he intends to rely at the hearing no later than 12 June 2007 In Barclays defence they stated that they had not received the breakdown of charges claiming for so have sent these to Barclays cc the court office ages back. Apart from this, that should be everything shouldn’t it? Or is this when I should have sent by court bundle before? Other Directions: The Defendant’s do file & serve skeleton arguments at least 21 days before the hearing I presume Barclays will do this The Claimant at liberty to reply at least 7 days before the hearing Do I need to reply with anything at all? The district judge has decided that this will go down small claims track with no mention if it’s just a directions hearing or not so I’m basically unsure what I should be doing now. Help would be much appreciated. The date is getting very close & although I know it will almost definitely be stayed, I just want to do my part 100% so there's nothing to fall back on in future. Cheers

it's not too bad getting there, just a smal bus journey however would rather be called first to be honest rather than turn up for nothing one thing though is that I have not yet put together my court bundle which may be a bad move as below is mentioned on the court bundle thread: "When you get a date, the court will usually give a direction that "a copy of the documents you intend to rely on at the hearing be sent to the other party and the court, no later than 14 days before the hearing date"."

So did you have to appear at court just for it to be stayed? I am hoping that if my case is also stayed I can at least get a courtesy call first so I don't have to go into Oxford to just come back again!

shame isn't it I started my claim over a year back was given the date of 13th august over 3 months ago so i've been waiting patiently for ages now & then suddenly the test case comes in a couple of weeks before getting it all sorted

Emma Thompson on 27th July 2007 wrote: In light of the current events the bank will be looking to stay all claims and so it is probable that your claim will also be stayed until the test case. So nothing 100% in stone at all so I shall continue I guess 8)

Person dealing with my claim: Krysta Cambell Contact: 0207 116 5835 I have looked in the litigation thread & seen than Krysta is apparently on annual leave until 14th August although my court date is 13th August..... The person on the phone told me she is back in next week though but will definitely be emailing her anyway & will also phone again on Monday to get an update on when she is back in (if I don't get an out of office although I should do)

I was just told that Krysta's email address was: crysta.cambell@barclays.com I presume this is incorrect & it should be krysta, otherwise many people would have noted it..... AND that she was back in sometime next week....... she is dealing with my case which is 13th August 2007 so maybe it would be better if she was still on holiday while I turn up to court on my own!!! Oh well! I even reconfirmed her email address! :o

so they almost certainly will not be paying anyone ahead of their court dates from now? I'll give them a call, find out who is dealing with my case & get some feedback

Questions regarding making a call to the Barclays Litigation Team I was due to make a call today regarding my court case which is 13th August. Do you think now the OFT Case is going through I am not likely to get any payment in full made early? AND Is it worth giving them a call?! many thanks

considering the main test case proceedings going on today, do you imagine calling the litigation team could prove a bit fruitless as they will also be waiting on the "big decision"??
