Clare vs HSBC for £4,900- ** WON **

[Clare1981]

Thanks Mike, I hope everything goes smoothly for you too! When did you get your offer and when did you fax it back? Your prob right about being in the same boat. When I rang she said 'the requests for payments' were being sent over that afternoon and she would put mine at the top of the pile so guess their were quite a few being sent over, chances are yours was in the same pile!! xxxxx

i sent the fax baxk on the 27th, but i dont think anyone it bacn till the 3dr now anyway, so will call then and see what happens.

[Clare1981]

Think the bloke said they were back on the 2nd, not that a day would make much difference! I bet yours was in the same pile as mine, they prob wait till they've got at least a few then they send them to the bank.

 

Mine was sent back on the Friday the 22nd and then came the weekend, xmas and boxing day so would have been no different to sending it on the 27th to be honest!!

 

Anyway, Im hoping for Tuesday or Wednesday so good luck for then!

This is amazing !!

 

I have been considering doing this for a while, but your story has completely inspired me to get started.

 

My only concern is they will try to close my bank account, any advice ?

 

Thanks

[boXXer]

Happy New Year

 

Hopefully a prosperous one

You are on EXACTLY the same time frame as me then. mine was sent 22nd and delivered 27th. I am desperate for my money, you tried calling them? i can never get hold of anyone!

[Clare1981]

No money today either... if its not there by tomorow ill be ringing the bank!

[Clare1981]

Just rang HSBC, she said there were no 'pending' payments going into my account at the moment but the system can still update... this is unnbearable now... I NEED that money, I cannot go another day without a car!! LOL

 

If I want to speak to someone at HSBC regarding the payment who should I phone?!!

[Kathryn Holton]

Hi It's Kathryn again, I have just read your reply, the court paperwork says that they put in their defence on the 28th November although it only appeared on line on the 28th December, the post was not there this morning when I left so I have got my fingers crossed that something will be there when I get home, like you I am really impatient, I could really do with this money at the moment. Do I need to send tham a copy of my statement of charges, will this help?

[Clare1981]

Money in the bank today!! Wooo hooo!! New car here I come!!!!!!

 

Kathryn, hang tight, your soooo close now!! have you already sent DG the breakdown of charges? Im not sure how it works with the courts as I never got further than them entering a defence! But I think ive heard of people sending the BOC to the courts, hopefully someone else can answer this? Good luck for todays post!! xx

[lateralus]

clare, i'm so glad you finally got your money - had visions of you walking or bussing everywhere with kids in tow and all. now, spend wisely girl and buy that cute kid a little treat! got there in the end.....a bit of a rocky road at times but you are there now. have a very healthy, happy 2007!

[boXXer]

WELL DONE YOU!! i faxed back my acceptance on the 27th, so hopefully i might get mine soon too. How long did it take for u?

[Claire wilson]

clare, boxxer or laterus, I am expecting my offer in the post tommorow,m its the best feeling isn't it? do any of you know if they can take your overdraft out of the money, I am worried that £2500 of mine will be gone before I start!!

[lateralus]

that's why a lot of people want a cheque, so they can determine where it goes. i don't think they would call in the overdraft - not without notice - but it might be a good idea to get it down to a manageable level or else you might find yourself in the same boat again?! hope it comes tomorrow.

[Clare1981]

Thanks Lats! The treat is that we now have a car and get to go out!! Woo hoo!!!

 

Thank you EVERYONE for your help and support (and laughs!) Esp Lats and Steve who sadly isnt here to accept my huge thank you's!!

 

And good luck all!! Ill be around to see how your going!! xxx

[Clare1981]

Sorry boxxer, mine took from the 22nd so wont be long for you now I doubt!! xx

This my first post, and well done.

 

Started on the long road to get my money back about 2 weeks ago. Don't know what im gonna claim for yet because im still waiting for the 2nd batch of staments covering the first 3 years of the 6 that you can claim for. But im guessing the total amount will around £1000. Is it worth it?

[Clare1981]

Yes definitely do it!! On top of your charges when you get to the court claim bit you can add 8% interest, it all adds up! You may be surprised to see how much your charges total, I was looking at about 3 grand and it was over 5 in the end!

[lateralus]

gav6280, if you haven't already - start your own thread - you can use it like a diary to keep track of what's gone on and also, if you have questions, you can post there and we can help - it's tricky if you are on someone else's thread. good luck, we are here to help.
