hi all
my bank charges reclaim case has been filed with the courts since 2007! to be honest since the latest supreme court ruling i have given up hope of succesfully reclaiming! but i have no idea about what to do?

. do i withdraw the claim? can this be done? does it cost anything?
. do i hang tight and wait? if so why?

can someone shed some light?
i have been trawling through forums directgov sites etc but cant find any help that is written in plain english and not confusing long worded nonsense!!

general consensus is to sit tight for now, until you hear something

there are people, including me, in the same boat following this thread

I would sit tight and let the court deal with it as appropriate.

Depending on the basis of your claim, it may be struck out

Q. My case is on hold with the courts, what is going to happen?

A. ...
If your case is based on the old template letters and the court deals with it, it's very likely to be struck out...

If the court doesn't strike it out, then it will progress to the next stage.
That will be the time to decide whether you wish to spend more money on court fees, bearing in mind the pssibilty of getting any money back is only 10%- 20% according to the above link, or withdraw the claim.

A new legal arguement should be published this week from the barrister Martin has employed. You'll need to read that when it becomes available and decide if there really is any point fighting on.
