Hi guys,
Sorry I forgot to say that I have DG Solicitors in a tacit agreement as the 3rd letter with a copy common law copyright notice was sent to them by recorded delivery 12 March 2012 and received 14 March 2012, so do I still do the Statutory Declaration and hand deliver it to the court, if so do I send copyies of all 3 letters and receipts.
Thank you
Cath

Hi,.
I received a Claim Form from NCCBC dated 4 Apr 2012 and I hand delivered it back to NCCBC 23 Apr 2012 with a covering letter saying that there is nothing for the court to deal with as I would be happy to pay upon proof of the deby with DG Solicitors which they failed to do.
Today 30 Apr 2013 I received a letter from DG Solicitors (dated 26 Apr 2013) saying that thus far the claim has been stayed by which your position has not been prejudiced and we apologise for any delay on our part.
They have sent me a signed credit agreement by myself (which is almost impossible to read) dated 10 Dec 1996 which has not been signed by First Direct (HSBC).
After quite a bit of waffle the bottom paragraph says "In default of a responce from you by 13 May 2013, we are instructed to apply to strike out your defence and enter judment on the full amount due. We shall also apply for our client's costs of the application to be added to the sums claimed from you. Once judgment has been obtained we may take enforcement action against your assets to obtain payment". Also there is a letter which states HSBC -v- Worth, DG Solicitors, Court Number ........, another number ........ dated 26 Apr 2013.
The last letter that I received from DG Solicitors 6 Mar 2012 asking me to call there office within 24 hours, which I did not do.
Can DG Solicitors still act on the Claim Form from NCCBC dated 4 Apr 2012.
A quick responce would be appreciated.
Thank you

I wouldn't have thought so after so long as they may have to do it all again, I'm sure there is a time limit once they start,but i may be wrong, it would be worth checking with some one about the time limit thing...

i would double check the agreement too as i'm 90% sure it will be unenforceable by the date on it

Thank you lambchop

Regarding the above post that I made 2 May (which I have now amended) I phoned up NCCBC 1 May 2013 and asked them if the Claim dated 4 Apr 2012 from DG Solicitors was still open and I was told yes it was.
There had been a Stay placed on the Claim by DG Solicitors 28 May 2012, to which I said that I had not been notified of the Stay and was told that neither NCCBC or DG Solicitors were obliged to tell me and that DG Solicitors should have replied to the Stay from NCCBC (dated 4 Apr 2012) within 28 days from 28 May 2012 which they did not.
I was also told that If I do not reply to DG Solicitors (dated 26 Apri 2013) by 13 May 2013 then the Stay would be lifted and I would be issued with a CCJ.
How long can a Stay be open for as almost a year after seems a long time to me with not hearing from either NCCBC or DG Solicitors.
Thank you
