Neither plaintiff has taken them up on their offer and are currently considering proceeding with the theft charges.
Any news on the theft charge ?

Re: Reclaim Your Bank And Card Charges

There was just a whole thing on GMTV about this and what steps you need to take to get your money back which have already been explained here. The guy is doing a webchat about it after the show.

Looks like the banks may be getting quite a few letters in to them very soon.

Standard response from the bank, ignore it and carry on with the next stage.

Handyman,

No more Mr nice guy or lengthy letters. They have shown that they are unsympathetic towards you and now is the time for them to understand that you are serious.

Write back to Mr McKirdy acknowledging his missive and be sure to use the appropriate reference.

Simply state the following in your letter.


Mr McKirdy,

Thank you for your correspondence of June 13th inst. reference *******.

I acknowledge the "Terms and Conditions" as referenced in your aforementioned correspondence however I should like to point out to you that this is a matter of consumer contract law. The law is clear and unambiguous in that it states that enforced penalty charges are illegal where they represent anything beyond the liquidated losses incurred.

On that basis, and in the absence of a full refund of the sum of £???? as detailed in my original correspondence, please take note that I intend to commence County Court action for the recovery of same in the event that I do not receive a positive reply from you on this matter within fourteen days of todays date.

Sincerely


Handyman

At the expiry of the 14 days (do not enter into any further protracted correspondence) go straight to your County Court and fill out a form N1.

Have your County Court issue the notice of claim and summons.

Re: Reclaim Your Bank And Card Charges

this should be entertaining. how much does it cost handyman to file this?

---------- Post added at 18:37 ---------- Previous post was at 18:34 ----------

it appears to be anything from £30 to £120 depending on the size of the claim
