Over 5k Claim!!

Hi

My charges are horrendous and will come to well over 5k if I include interest from HSBC. Maybe around 7k!

Has anyone pursued over 5k amounts with success ? Do I have to use a different court from the small claims ? What are the costs likel;y to beif I go for the full amount with interest?

Would it be possible to run 2 separate claims for different date ranges for the same account to bring it under the 5k to make it eligible for Small Claims court?
Any help much appreciated.

Thanks.

Thai J
