    Can anyone help me? Or do I just put County Court?
  • Hi guys,

    I'm completely new to all this! I have written to Halifax, asking for my bank charges back and they have written back to me saying that they are looking into my complaint and i should hear back from them in up to 8 weeks (surprise surprise...using delay tactics!!) I have decided not to wait to hear from them, but to go straight ahead with the threatening to take them to court letter. I have dowloaded and i think it must be that I'm tired...or just being an idiot (!) but where it says to fill in the name of the court, does anyone know what I should put there?

    Thanks

    Laura

    Leave it out. Just say "the court will rule in my favour". The name of the court is irrelevant to your claim.

    Tomorrow is time for me to send the second letter ( step 4 in the guide ).
    I've had a read and im not sure what to write where it says insert courts address, do i put in my local courts address or put moneyclaim?
    As i'm following the guide i think i should write monyclaim.
    I am just wondering what other people have done.

    thanks for any advice.

    You can just leave it at 'local court' at this stage.

    Alternatively you can look here for your local court address:

    Good luck :)
  • I am sorting out my LBA letter and I have to put in which court. Which court would I put in as after reading some posts they seem to have Northampton.
    Thanks

    It will be your local court.

    All MCOL claims start at Northampton and are then moved to the claimants local court.
  • Thanks for that.... now to crack on!!
