  • credit cards aren't priority debts either(however you should be reclaiming the charges from the cards including the £12.00 ones)
    Electric bill is priority debt, are you paying the arrears off?

    So that is Halifax Blair Oliver and Scott?
    The debt is in dispute so they can get lost but go back to HBOS for the financial hardship element and do not reject any further offers but negotiate them if need be ;)

    Tell Blair, Oliver and Scott that the account is in formal dispute with the bank and that until the OFT vs. Abbey et al and the issues around it are completely resolved that you will not be offering them anything and that any case brought through the courts will be defended vigorously.
    Furthermore, ask Halifax for an updated list of charges since you can update the claim. Is it on hold with the bank or county court?

    With that threat make the bank aware of that as it is new information so to speak.

Has anyone every tried to claim the same bank again? What do you think my chances are? Its just me partners business has just go into liquidation and would be really handy.
