    did you fill in an allication form to the small claims court before your court date?,

    Yes I did. Had a long wait then for the hearing date.
    I always wanted to be a procrastinator, never got round to it...

    Amt claimed: £291.16
    Amt refunded: £321.16

    Natwest turned down my claim the 1st time and said I could take it further if I wished so I took it to the small claims court. I filled in the very simple N1 form and sent off my £30 cheque. They then said that they were going to defend the claim. They had 28 days in which to put in a defence. I was getting a bit nervous at this point but I held my nerve because I've seen a few posts where people have got their money right at the last minute. Well, today (day 15) I received a cheque through the post for £321.16. This included the £30 I'd paid to the SCC. Result!! To anyone thinking of doing this I would just say go for it.

    Ive just been refused payment from natwest- could you tell me how I go about making a clam through the small claims court, im trying to claim £1398.00 in fees/charges plus £706.55 in overdraft interest for the sum which you have taken which comes to a total of £2104.55.
    Finally got a letter from them yesterday after sending them 2 letters
    Many thanks
