    I just tried calling the court but think its now closed, just need to clarify what the judgement was, cant believe I cant remember, was just so nervous. I do remember talking to thier solicitor after the hearing, advice is I shouldnt have done and that certainly makes sense, he definately said they are in their rights to continue charging me interest. I will wait until it is confirmed what the judgement was and seek advice on where to go to next. Thankyou again for all your support. No doubt you will be hearing from me soon for more of the brill advice you have all given me :T

    They is a Judgement where it was ruled that as the Creditor did non insure the correct procedure was following with a CCA the monies were deemed to be a gift !

    I have that - I found while searching the web couple of weeks ago - its below.

    Taken from Sir Andrew Morrits Judgment in the Court of Appeal in the Wilson & First Counties Trust case :

    “In effect, the creditor--by failing to ensure that he obtained a document signed by the debtor which contained all the prescribed terms--must (in the light of the provisions in ss 65(1) and 127(3) of the 1974 Act) be taken to have made a voluntary disposition, or gift,of the loan moneys to the debtor. The creditor had chosen to part with the moneys in circumstances in which it was never entitled to have them repaid;”
    No Longer works for MBNA as of August 2010 - redundancy money will be nice though.

    That makes interesting reading. I will also be writing to TSB and Egg for copies of CCA, on a roll now. The judge has really lifted my spirits, have been so low, like its been said, it really does give us some hope and faith in the court system doesn't it. As soon as the judgement has been confirmed to me, I'll be posting again but right now I'm going to sit down to eat with my children and have a large glass of wine!!:beer:

    If that is going to be about a different creditor/case, then I think it's normally best to start a new thread. Helps prevent the two cases getting confused when people are trying to reply.

    If it is a continuation of this case/issues, then I would say it's up to you to do whatever you think is best.
