Moneyclaim Online (MCOL) question

They have entered a defence now, can you believe it? And yet, the cheque is apparently on the way! And they are telling US they are wasting valuable court time! Will we now have to fill in an Allocation Questionnaire? We will be away from April 6 to April 14, how long do they give you to fill it in? And what if the cheque arrives next week? Can I just ring MCOL after the holiday and say cancel the lot as we have received the cheque? I am SOOOO angry at Cap 1. All they had to do is include the cheque with their letter, but no, they had to be arkward and delay. I am thinking about ringing MCOL and asking for advice. Cap1 has only put a defence to buy time in so we can't enter judgment by default before the cheque gets to us! The court should take a dim view on things like that.

I rang MCOL and they said "don't worry, don't do anything yet, we are sending you a letter anyway advising you not to cancel the claim just yet, ring us when the cheque arrives or ring us when it doesn't arrive in the next 2 weeks and we can bring it further." I like them!

Hi all my question is this
I have 2 claims in HfC for £1100, HSBC for £3600.
HFC judgment day falls on saterday 14th April and HSBC on easter monday 9th April, as both of these fall on a non working day do I have to waite for a work day to file for judgment, if their 14 days is up on the 14th, do I have to waite until the 15th to ask for judgment.

From MCOL FAQ....

Q. I am entering judgment by default but a message comes up stating you cannot enter judgment by default at this time, why does it say this?

A. This is because the defendant's time for filing a response has not yet passed. If their deadline fell on a weekend or bank holiday they are given the next working day to respond. It may also be because the defendant has filed an acknowledgement of service, which gives them an extra 14 days to respond.

Hi,
I am just about to file Mcol claims for my partners and mine's capital one accounts.
They have refunded us £64 each which i wrote back to say we would "accept on the clear understanding that i will persue recovery of the remainder with a county court claim if nesseccery"
We then recived a letter stating this was their final offer ect ect..
Can i now carry on claiming via mcol for the remainder of the charges and intrest??
And how do i take off the £64 we have been refunded?
do i just take it off charges..?
as this will effect the amount of intrest..
Any advice would be much appriciated..
Thanks

Sorry to be a pain but can anybody give me some advice as im desperate to file my court claim..
Thanks

Hi all
just put my claim in on MCOL my question is
does anyone know how long have they got to put a defence in
and if they do how long after that before it goes to court
just a rough guide of what to expect next
many thanks

Hi Greeny,

The claim takes 5 days to be served. Then they have 14 days to either acknowledge/defend the claim. If they acknowledge this will bide them an additional 14 days on top to make it 28 days in total. If they defend within the 14 days then a court date could be set for a couple of months.

For example Lloyds court dates are being done in July :mad:

You never know your bank may not respond at all in which case you win and can enter a judgement by default.

Hope that clarify's it all

thanks very much taff
i am actually with lloyds getting a bit scared now it
doesnt seem as simple as everyone made out
or is it just me
are you with lloyds too.

Taffyfella

No worries bud,

Yea I'm in the process with Lloyds too.

It does seem a bit sureal, I filed through MCOL on the 21st March and they have just acknowledged my claim :mad:

I don't understand why they drag it out because we will get our money back in the end including interest + costs :T
