Abbey (merged)

Hi Mondays,

They always stall, they always try to buy time in the hope that you will give up. Just proceed to your and MSES original timetable.

Good luck

I originally received a response to my first letter asking for my money back stating that abbey were looking in to it and I should get a response within 4weeks but if they were not in a position to respond by then they would write to me again - I took it to stage 2 and got another letter saying as previously stated they were looking in to it and needed more time - 4 weeks or would write if needed more time - started the claim online - Tuesday was my day to get my money back £2500 but today the status has changed to acknowledged - disappointed. Does anyone know how the abbey settle ? as in I owed them £3400 for an acount which has been closed and passed to a debt collection agency which I am paying back at about £5 a month - will I get a cheque or will they knock it off my debt (if I am successful ) ??

Thank you - fingers crossed!! (My brother had one with Nationwide who didnt bother to acknowledge and he got his £1500+interest + fees 2 weeks ago)

Started claim against Abbey in December last year asking for statements.

In February claimed £3390 plus interest £844.28 Total £4234.28

Received standard letters asking for time to investigate but just followed advice from Martin on time scale to follow.

Next letter to them in March telling them I would take them to court if they did not pay out.

They offered £500 to settle but just kept going.

Started court proceeding's end March. Cost £120

Got response that they were defending the claim beginning April asked for all details again £3390 plus newly calculated interest £899.36 Total £4289.36

Received letter from court in May asking for court bundle to be sent and copy to Abbey.

Two weeks later Abbey rang and made a settlement offer of £3000 refused, they rang back next day and finally settled on £4000.

Claimed £4289.36 received £4500 very happy.

Just keep the faith

Claimed Dorothy Perkins for wife claimed £500 plus interest sent letter asking for refund payed £500 on second letter accepted

I am now just waiting on a court date, the judge has waived the requirement to submit an allocation questionnaire but I also think I have mis-placed my statements - would I need them for my court bundle? did you do a court bundle? Any advice gratefully received.

he will have done his court bundle.....yes you will need your statements for your court bundle....................happy huntin

hi,now at the stage of taking abbey to court,can someone please advise me of how to go about this.

saraharrow

Hi you need to go to money claim online and file the court action there. the original MSE posting on how to reclaim the charges should tell you how.

Good Luck

Email me if you have trouble, althought you may not get an immediate response due to 3 demanding children...

Regards

Taken, everyones advice, moving to stage 2, after receiving a stalling letter from Abbey. sending letter tomorrow giving them another 14 days before starting court action. Wish me luck

your not being too greedy at all, write back to them and tell them you will accept this as a part payment of the whole amount and that you will be commencing court proceedings to claim the rest!!

Good luck!
