Hi MimiJane & nappy & others.

I have my court date set for 11th July. They need my court bundle 14 days before hand so that gives me about about 10 days to get it out.

So I'll be knuckling down over the next few days to hammer it out.

Wish me luck!

Steve

PS. MimiJane: Do you have a copy of your index you can let me have to get me started?? Many thanks

Hi there,
So you are ahead of me then, im 19th july, am just getting bits together myself, will be interesting to see how yours turns out,
I rang solictors yesterday and was surprised when my solictor dealing with my claim made me an offer on the phone, it was less than half i am claiming for so i politely turned her down,
Do keep me posted, thanks
Nappy

personally i wouldn't accept it no. They have been offering rubbish first time settlements. They've offered me £484 for a £1400 claim, ive taken them to court and i'm not giving in.
It depends how badly you need the money and if you think that's good enough?
Is this your first offer from them? Have you commenced with MCOL?

You could always teel them you accpet it as a 'partial offer' and then carry on claiming the rest...it's always worth negotiating with them, you have nothing to loose.

If this is your first offer then i would always try for more.

My claim is for £2059 + £325 interest, i was made an offer of nearly £600 i refused and said that i would go to court which is where i am presently at, i have my court date 19th july and am gathering information at the moment for that date, i have to have all correspondence to both solictors and court by the 21st june, if you go on the main alliance and leicester thread, there are 169 pages of all of us in the same position, some further on than others,
Its up to you what you decide to do, but most of us are refusing our first offers, but the choice is yours, hope this helps, and look on the main thread,

Hi ! We're in a similar situation - claiming £1259 ish and were offered £277.50 !!! I've sent them a letter giving them one last chance to offer sensible dosh, and said they've got till tomorrow to repy, then we're starting court proceedings. Personally I think we shouldnt give up - Ive had 6 years of pants service from this company, and i'm doing it out of principle now. Good luck - we've got nothing to lose by starting court proceedings, so go for it !!

Hi all! Has anyone at all out there had any sensible offers from Alliance and Leicester ? I ask purely because ive just had an offer of £277.50 on a claim for about £1259, and am fed up of all the mucking around (from them) !! Apologies if this has been asked before but its my first time ... Thanks in advance

Nappy,

All copies were put in ring binders ... I delivered to the court and sent Recorded Delivery to Wragges.

You're best to include the whole of these Acts ... I doubt you'd find abbreviated versions and, even if you did, they may well miss out vital info., so play safe.
