Reclaimed Bank Charges SUCCESS stories

Hi,
Does anybody know what "debit under advice" ,means on a statement?
ThanksApril £5 a day challenge- £15.05/£1500 -
Have received a reply today from Bank of Scotland to my 2nd letter saying it will take 4 weeks to respond to my query. Having read the thread it appears I should just go to court tomorrow (7 days is up then) as their time is up.
My claim is for £4650 plus interest which takes me over the small claims limit. Should I write and offer 'early settlement without the interest' or just go straight to court? In which case is it less risky to drop the interest and go through Moneyclaim or wade through a High Court claim for the interest as well?
I have also incurred charges over the last two weeks of about £100 -when can I add these to my claim?
Thanks for any help anyone can give...Lou0 -
The small claim limit in Endland is £5000 before interest is added. Add the latest charges to the court claim.
I would go ahead and issue the court claim once your dealine is up.How many surrealists does it take to change a lightbulb?

Hi,
I recently issued a claim for bank charges. The amount I am claiming is £3500 inc. interest. However I have just received a reply from Halifax. They have offered me £1253. As you can see, this offer is way under what I am owed. Please could someone give me some advice, as the clock is ticking. I have 2 weeks to reply. Thankyou.
Kind Regards,

Only you can decide if you want to accept or proceed with court action. You can reply saying you will accept this as partial payment and will be going ahead with court action.0
