'solicitors' response to letter 3

[stoneybroke]

im really not sure how it works over there we also have ombudsman but they seem to b 1 sided so i went to australian securites invensments they lay the consumer guidlines down and prosecute for breaches of dc code of conduct

I have read if i go the Ombudsman route then when a decission is made that will be cast in stone and there will be no need for court because its been ruled on..
I am really pissed off...basically they received all the letters by reg post and just said to hell with these and put a registered judgement against my house...how is this possible?

I really need concrete suggestions..i am in Rep of Ireland and need local law advice.

Thanks

Hi Guys,

I need some advice on a solicitors letter received.It Says..

We refer to the civil bill served on you(i never signed for anything)by reg post dated...We propose to apply for the judgement in default of appearance within 14 days from the date hereof,in the event that the debt has not been discharged to our clients.
The heading of letter states me v ... and the circuit court record number.

Thats it..

This letter was sent by normal post and i have already done up a bill...but what else shoud i be doing now?

Thanks

[stoneybroke]

if it was sent registered and signed for both you and they would know it was signed for i smell a big fat dirty rat your come back is not served


...We propose to apply for the judgement in default of appearance within 14 days from the date hereof,in the event that the debt has not been discharged to our clients.

this again is fishy i dont think u got sent jack shit maybe check the court circuit number and see i cant see them getting any jugment if u aint got a summons to court i belive u certainlt have a comeback if u havent signed for anything thats been sent registered

woops sorry as ceylon would say BILL THEM

A note on the registered letter and whether i signed or not..

I was talking to a friend and he said that the courts take into account that the reg letter was sent to my address and therefore is acceptable as being read..

any thoughts on this?

Also if they are indeed looking for judgement what are my options now...I owe them 30k and maybe i could wait until the last minute to offer 5k...which would put me under serious financial stress...but if it gets these guys off my back i would do it..

again any help here..

by the way i did send the bill to them..should i send them another letter saying i will countersue?

[stoneybroke]

We refer to the civil bill served on you

i still think they r playing with u how can u be served if u aint been served if u havent recevied it if u havent signed for it u aint b served ask for reg post number then go to gpo and ask if this has been delivered and signed for as u havent recevied it
