Thank you Mimijane,

Does anybody know how much the court costs are, I am claiming back for £770 and £1,875.00, or where can I find this information, also where do I find out which court it will go to so I can put it on the 3rd letter, threatening court action

Hello everybody , this is my 1st post but i have been watching the forum for months whilst claiming from A&L. All has gone to plan as you all said. After going through the court process A&L sent a letter saying they were going to defend which gave them 28 days. 14 days later a cheuqe for £2818.06 arrived. I just want to say thanks to everybody who start the threads and to the people who respond to them as they have kept me going and kept the worries at bay. thanks again. jaybo123


P.S. Has anybody had there account closed after being paid out.
thanks , :jaybo123 ::beer: :j :money: :rotfl:

Hi,
I received my charges back last week and have today received a letter advising me that they will be closing my account on 13 May.
I remember reading somewhere that you can sue for retaliatory account closing does anyone know where the thread is or a template I can use?

Hi again,

I'm sure I've read on a few of the threads that it costs £100 in court costs. You'll be notified of your local court in due course ... if you want to know sooner, you could always give them a ring and I'm sure they'll let you know.

Hi Mimijane, I thought you had to put the name of the court in the 3rd letter you send to them threatening them with court action?

I didn't ... just put it would go through the County Court.

I filed a claim online and the court papers where sent out on the 5th April, Alliance and leicester have either not received them or are ignoring them, Whats likely to happen next?

I had a hell of alot of bother getting my statements of alliance and leicester to start with, they don't seem to want to play ball

Hi vtr2007,

This is from Martins step guide hope it helps.


VICTORY. The bank does nothing. This is a very common outcome; often the bank simply doesn’t acknowledge the claim and this means you automatically win by default 14 days after the claim is served (which takes 5 days). At that point, you must request ‘judgment by default’, this can be done online, and you should do it as soon as possible (get it in your diary and plan around it to the second if possible) after the 14 days ends.

I am having BIG problems with A & L. I have sent several letters, got the print out from them of the charges and have now been told that they are not willing to pay out as "you agreed to our charges when you opened your account"! The call centre operatives are all trained to say "no" very firmly. My next step is the small claims avenue but as I live in Scotland, I'm going to have to raise 2 small claims. I have the feeling they will fight it tooth and nail.
