Congrats on the cheque!
As I mentioned on an earlier posting, they had passed the account to their own collection agency. So I sent them the letter, asking for it to be pssed on to Simply be and requesting the satements. Hopefully they wont drag it out too long before sending them.
Have you heard anything on your claims from HSBS? Time up yet?
I have also put a claim in against Cap1 - only sent the list of charges a week ago, but not heard from them yet. How are you getting on with that?0 -
SOrry Shelley forgot to ask - did they send a cheque because your account was no longer active? Only I thought they would have deducted it off the balance.0

Hi Kimmie,
Yes they sent a cheque as my acct has been closed a long time now. I ended up with a default from them and my acct was sent to Debt Recovery Agency. Paid that off immediately but still managed to get meself a default!
Doh! (I've learnt my lesson there!)
I went straight to Simply Be as when i signed onto the acct years later i still had a closed balance of £400!! they said this was becos it had been passed on.
HSBC are fools, they defended with 2 days to go, grrrr...initial letter was sent 28th Feb...its dragging on but im looking forward to their defence letterthen a court date and im hoping a decent offer !
Capital One took ages sending statements, came back with £100 charges so claimed for that and £25 interest..cos im cheeky! Got a letter saying they are looking into it and will have a response shortly, i think they have until end of this week then they get LBA.
Seems like we both use the same nasty companies, lol
....Although of course im not totally blameless!0 -
I am starting my claim for my Argos Card, do I also have to send these the £10 cheque to send me the statements ?

Hi,
I Think the same procedure applies. What I would do is either search the threads to see if anyone else has applied through them and they can then tell you what they charge. Or failing that, call them and ask.
I have to say, I have had so much help from these sites, they have aswered all my questions.
Good luck.princesskez26 wrote: »I am starting my claim for my Argos Card, do I also have to send these the £10 cheque to send me the statements ?

This can be done but you need to write to them giving them 7 days to reply and also that to treat this letter as a lba and then you simply issue on the 10 th day.ONLY COPY WHAT I AM DOING IF YOU ARE 100% SURE AND YOU KNOW EXACTLY WHAT THE END RESULT MAY BE. ALWAYS CONSULT A PROFESSIONAL BEFORE FOLLOWING MY ADVICE. I AM NOT LEGALLY TRAINED . IF WHAT I AM DOING HELPS YOU IN ANY WAY CLICK THE THANKS BUTTON0

Yes I know what you mean! I have not been the model customer - but hey they can afford it (thats what I keep telling myself anyway)!
Do you think I should take the date from the letter actually dated? Is that what you did?
It is so frustrating, all we want is our money:beer: :beer:Hi Kimmie,

Hi I Sent E-mail To Studio For Statements And They Are Going To Sent Them To Me, Hopefully They Should Come In The Next Few Days,no Charge.0

hi all
I've just recieved a letter from studio cards regarding 60 pounds of charges. They have sent me 70 pounds of gift vouchers (not a problem for me).:j
I've just had a look at my account with them and im 60 pounds in credit?
So does that mean someones done a booboo and credited my account with 60 pounds and also sent me 70 pounds of vouchers?
also what do i do with theses vouchers? do i send them off when the statement comes instead of sending a cheque?0
