Can anyone help???

Hi - can anyone help please? I owe Nat West re an old business account and loan. I don't dispute that I owe them - but I do dispute the amount.
On 15th April 2010 I received a letter from Irwin Mitchell Solicitors - a 'letter before court proceedings' giving me 14 days before they would start court proceedings. I replied on 15th April, but on 17th April I received two letters from them - a 'final warning' giving me 7 days to pay or put forward a realistic arrangement and also an 'Application for Money Judgement' and court papers. I completed the court papers and entered my defence, and also replied to Irwin Mitchell.
On 14th April I also received a letter from RSM Tenon who stated they were acting on behalf of Nat West. I replied to them and stated that I had just received correspondence from Irwin Mitchell regarding the same debt. I received a letter from RSM Tenon on 30th April 2010 stating that Nat West had confirmed that Irwin Mitchell were not dealing with the case. RSM came up with a proposal and asked me to think about it.
I telephoned Irwin Mitchell Solicitors to advise them of the correspondence I had received from RSM Tenon. They did not know what was happening and promised to get back to me - they haven't!
Today I received a money judgement from the court!! I was not advised of the date of the court hearing (I had originally asked for the case to be moved to my local court).
What can I do?? How can Nat West expect me to deal with two different organisations? Do I have any recourse against either Nat West, Irwin Mitchell or RSM Tenon?? Any advice anyone can give me would be truly appreciated.
I would add that at no time have Nat West written to me - they haven't answered any of my correspondence.
Thank you.
