GSMGuy v Woolwich

[GSMGuy]

Wahey - court date received....

 

When??? Valentines Day NEXT year....

 

Anyway copy of the letter is attached.... Do I now need to put together a "bundle?"

 

 

Do I need to be worried??

 

Cheers

Result! no need to worry!

[GSMGuy]

Thanks Thailand - I take it I just need to provide both the court and the Woolwich with copies of everything I am going to take on the day... I presume I can also add the cost of postage and copying etc to the claim?

Sorry Mike, I haven't looked into the bundle stuff yet - I decided to do that when I get my court date. It doesn't say you need to forward anything though, I hope someone will clarify this for you. With regard to adding costs to your claim - thats a tricky one. It has been done but generally on the small claims track each party is to cover its own costs, try if you like (and be reasonable) the judge could only say no. But you won't get to court because Barclays will likely fold before then!

[Thailand]

OOPS!! it does say you should - sorry, someone will let you know who knows more than me!

[austenpowers]

Mike, this is what you need http://www.consumeractiongroup.co.uk/forum/bank-templates-library/33060-basic-court-bundle.html

 

Just send one copy to the court, one copy to Barclays, and one copy for yourself. Then just sit back and wait for your letter or phone call to discus settlement. Good luck!

[GSMGuy]

Cheers for that - should I send Barclays' copy to The wonderful Mr Jeremiah?? If so, or not - to who and where lol

 

Mike

[GSMGuy]

Oh, forgot to mention, I now have additional charges to add of circa £2000 - over £600 of which is since I began action! Can I ask to have these added? If so, at which stage - and how?

 

Mike

[Thailand]

You can't add them on at this stage Mike. You'll need to start over with those I'm afraid. I don't think KJ is around these days - but if thats whose name is on your defence papers i'd use it.

[paddym]

think kj has been given time off on medicle grounds caused by stress relating to the amount of claims against woolwich/barclays/barclaycard !

[GSMGuy]

Ah well, maybe they will pay the next claim at the LBA stage - seems a shame not to be able to add it - I wonder if..... If a dialogue is started, it may be worth mentioning it - I suppose it can't do any harm.....

 

Mike

[GSMGuy]

Oh, and MOTB - got a letter from Wescott today to say they will be passing the account back to Barclays seeing as it is in dispute - Result!!!

Absolutely - worth a shot:)

[GSMGuy]

Right thanks guys - all 87 pages sent off by special delivery to the court and the Woolwich.. Wonder what will happen now, as the court date is over 2 months away - do you think I will get some contact soon, or will they leave me waiting??

 

Mike

[GSMGuy]

Well. looks like I can expect some contact - Got a letter in response to my complaining about them passing the account to Wescott... Blah Blah..

 

I thought the little bit at the end was interesting....

 

 

 

Quote "When they contact you in the next few weeks"

 

Hmm... Court date is set for 14th Feb, checked with the court last week and they had received and filed my bundle... So here's hoping......

 

 

Mike

GSM, are you aware of recent happenings with calling Barclays? If you have a court date they are paying some folk.

 

Have a look around the Woolwich or Barclays threads, to pick one thread - Welshman V Barclays has most of the info.

[GSMGuy]

Cheers, not been on much recently as snowed under with work - Off until 15th Jan now though!!!

 

Mike

[GSMGuy]

Hmm, had no contact from them - BUT they have now registered a default against me on 20th Dec for the overdrawn (charges) amount of my current account - Surely they cannot do this? When they passed it to Wescott, I wrote to them saying the account was in dispute and they should not have passed it to Wescott - They then took it back, I would assume the same applies over issung a default? I have done a CCA and got a quick response, they sent a copy of the termination notice they issued on 08/09/06 saying they would close the account in 14 days - which they did not, and still have not done.... Can I get this default removed???

 

Mike

[Delboy01]

I am not sure bout the default, someone else will deal with that,,

 

Could I just ask you how long your account has been with collections and how long it took them before they registered a default ?? are you much over your overdraft ?

 

Sorry to jump in but my current account is in trouble too, need a timescale..

 

Delboy

[GSMGuy]

Hiya, account was £400 over it's £100 OD limit for about 2 months before they passed it to collections and registered the default - I am waiting for the team manager from Wooly Collections to call me back re the default...

 

Mike

[Delboy01]

Ta for that, Did you send them a ( the Woolwich) "account is in dispute" letter as well as wescott??

[GSMGuy]

I sent the same letter to Mike Brophy @ the woolwich, Wescott and Wollwich Collections....

 

Mike

[GSMGuy]

Hmm, received a notification of adjournment to attempt settlement by mediation and an invite to a mediation "taster" day where the mediation will be free of charge.... Think it's the Court rather than Woolly.... Also is it possible to get my claim amended to order removal of the default they placed after I had issued and notified them the account was in dispute?
