    No no don't worry. On about the 1st they will acknowledge the claim. They then have a further 14 days to enter a defence. They will do that the day before. Barclays are one of the worst. You really need to get a grip on this they really try it on. Next you will be sent an Allocation Questionaire to fill in and then more paperwork. I think you need to go over to the CAG and follow the Barclays thread. They are hoping you will give up..........Barclays will fight to the bitter end often settling the day before court. This is not at all unusual. You are just not prepared.
    Spend a couple of days reading up on the CAG and see where you are going.
