  • Hello

    i have placed a small claim with LLyodsTSB for £3658. They did not respons to my claim once issued from money claim. I have now requested judgement as they have not acknowledge the court or my letter and the site now said judgement issued and a letter has gone to LLyods.

    Now what happens? how long do i give them before i send a warrent?

    Thank you

    ISTR that they have 7 days to pay up.

  • Insist on an interest free overdraught on their own collateral until they pay you. They can't really refuse you

    Hi

    I have taken the Bank all the way from mcol to having a warrant issued agaist them to recover my money, however things are still not as simple as it should be, the Bailiffs after over a month still have not executed the warrant and today I have spoken the Manager over the Bailiffs to ask why !

    She told me that the Warrant should be executed shortly but also said that if the Bank still do not Pay up there is no gaurantee that the Bailiffs can collect the monies owed , mainly because in the Banks Foyer only Furniture exists and that they wil not be able to gain access to the valuables in the Bank ???

    How can this be !! can the Bank stop the Bailiffs entering there Building !!!

    This is what I thought the Bailiffs were there for ?
    Any one else been told this information !!

    Regards and good luck to all.

    They can stop Certificated Bailiffs but not a County Court Bailiff, so get the court to do it

  • ive got judgement against lloyds tsb £2908.98 , (failed to log defence ) mcol have sent judgement to them but as of now still not payed up. Im trying to scare them into paying up by way of a threatening letter stating that i have judgement and will inforce a warrent if not payed up by XXXX.The thing is they never answer the phone and dont reply to any letters ! What's the best address to send / fax this judgement off to?. And should i do a covering letter stating how much they owe me? as its not stated on the letter from mcol stating the judgement.
    sorry for going on , thanks , any info much appriciated

    Don't bother. If they haven't paid up in the allotted 14 days just get a warrant issued. At this stage it isn't about negotiation, it's about the bank complying with the law.
    Hamsters have no tact and diplomacy, nor do they want any.

    Hi guys,

    I've been through the whole claim thing with MCOL and the bank (Lloyds) didn't make a defence. So I issued a judgement which the MCOL site tells me has been accepted and the judgment has been sent to the bank. I did this on 16th May but have not received anything back yet - have I made an almight bo-bo or is this just standard?

    I was under the impression that if the bank didn't defend then I won by default - but am I wrong or do they just have a certain amount of time to pay out?

    thank you

    Have you phoned customer services and asked them the same sort of question? under lining the fact that they now lawfully owe you this money
    Congrats by the way

    they may appeal for more time, ring the court and check this

    getting Judgment in Default does not mean that you will get paid, merely that the other side is in default. You must enforce the judgment by applying for a Warrant of Execution. You do this by filing an N323 at the court where the judgment was entered. However, you may use the fact that you have obtained judgment (albeit in default) as a bargaining chip as it will cost money for the bank to apply to set aside the judgment or stay any warrant.
