Help. Court date approaching

LewisB_2

Here is the problem I have got:
<O:p></O:p>
Some time I ago I post about how I set up a claim on Money Claim Online requesting £900 from Abbey National.<O:p></O:p>
<O:p></O:p>
Quick summery of what happened.<O:p></O:p>
<O:p></O:p>
- Wrote to Abbey requesting £900.<O:p></O:p>
- They wrote back with £500 charges refunded<O:p></O:p>
- Wrote to Abbey thanking them for the £500, but it was not the full amount. Told them to refund full amount within 14 days or I will file a claim.<O:p></O:p>
- Got a letter back saying they were not going to refund any more.<O:p></O:p>
- Filed a claim with MCOL for £900. I should have put £400 so made a mistake.<O:p></O:p>
- Abbey defended the claim of £900.<O:p></O:p>
- Got a court date for September.<O:p></O:p>
<O:p></O:p>
Now, what options do I have here? I really dont want to go to court.<O:p></O:p>
<O:p></O:p>
Do you think I should write to the court and cancel my claim and go via the financial obudsmen service for the £400 or;<O:p></O:p>
<O:p></O:p>
Write to the court, explain my situation and hope they will let me change the claim and re-issue the claim to abbey.<O:p></O:p>
<O:p></O:p>
Panicking and dont know what to do! HELP!!<O:p></O:p>
<O:p></O:p>
Thanks

just tell the court about the mistake and deduct the £500 from your claim.dont worry just explain its an honest mistake.court will prob just let you amend it.good luck
