Hi CAG, Long time member but having had computer issues (amongst other things) don't get to post often..but read lots and so here's what i did and where I am. I'm no Legal Bod, but here goes... Claim form issue date 2nd May, received 5th May, ackd (full def) 6th May, BankHol 7th May, sent CPR letter 8th May, they received 9th May, rang sols 16th May (said ring claimant), rang claimant 17th May (didn't have all docs requested, waiting on DN & their :???:NOA) got full extension, received what they had 18th May, sent extension to Northampton 22nd May, they received 23rd May (which i found out today), need to check they confirm extension tomorrow (didn't have their no. to hand today). So original defence was set 4th June but as this was BankHol again, (lost 3 days) & I was gonna be set for 1st June. Once extension agreed this should now make new def by 2nd July - so I've got 5.5 weeks to get my defence together). POC - The claimant's claim is in respect of a credit facility, ACCOUNT NUMBER, provided by MBNA at the defendant's request on (over 10yrs ago). The agreement was subsequently defaulted. Failure to meet requests for payment resulted in account the account being terminated. On (2 days after remedy date on DN approx 2yrs ago) all legal and beneficial interest for the monies was assigned to Hillbillies. The defendant was duly notified in writing of the assignment and that a balance of (over £5k) was due. The balance of (over £5k - minus tokens) remains owing from the defendant. So what is my next move? part 18, N244 or wait to defend. Want to be prepared and not bodge anything up. Thanks for listening. BS
