Sending In The Bailiffs/warrant (merged)

masonfield6

Hi All, I have been claiming back £4000 of charges for my partner from RBS. They did not file a defence so got a judgement by default. A letter landed on our doorstep yesterday offering just under £3000. I gave them a call advising them that they had not defended the claim and that a warrant had been issued to the court bailiff, her reply was that is our final offer! im baffled i think im right in saying that the bailiff will now recover the full amount requested? Any help on clarifying this would be great

Just a quick note regarding the courts holding on to payments. Once we receive a payment into court they are processed but are not released for 14 days to ensure that the cheques have cleared. If anyone has any warrant related queries ill do my best to answer x

Anyone have any idea how long it takes to recover the money when you send in the bailiffs? It's beginning to look like i'll have to go that way with the bank

Having gone through the whole procedure from the beginning of Feb, I am now at the point where I have won my case through the courts by default. I then politely gave them 2 weeks to pay, no luck there so I executed the warrant which was sent to my local county court on 20/06/07.
Does anyone know the timescales from here? or how do I chase my warrant with the bailiffs as I would like to know if they plan to visit my local Halifax branch so that i can be there!!

I believe I am also entitled to interest on what they owe me from the date I requested payment(0.021% on a daily basis) but how do I claim this?
