Clarification Required

Hi long standing out of pocket client like everyone else since 2002.

Like everyone else on here waiting and waiting, now in the last cance saloon with a joint action group against the Bank.

Have been right through the process winning meaningless cases and waiting for 80k in Euros.

Noticed light at the end of the tunnel with people winning at last. About 8 weeks ago we got the final case win and the bank had 20 days to appeal. Our Solicitor is not the best communicator, something which a lot of people have commented on, nevertheless a very common one on here.

I don't want to name them but their initial starts with the same letter as "The beautiful Game".

I was under the impression that people were winning the lump sums owed by the bank. But the banks were appealing against interest and costs. My Solicitor has indicated the bank have appealed not against the lump sum, but indeed against the interest etc.

Personally I was expecting a lump sum in the not too distant future, then another fight against the interest?

Can anyone clarify or quantify the procedure as I've very loosely been told that it could be another 12 months now and I'm a tad miffed to put it mildly..

Cheers all....

Sorry.   

Everyones case seems to have different endings at final hearings.  

The outcome you get now is perhaps based on how good your lawyer performs and uses their experience.    

Its time to make them communicate!!!   Get stuck in. 

we won the case last February. Then same as you the Bank appealed against the interest and costs. Of course they won as norm. We paid our Solicitor another amount of money to go to Court and to fight for our rights.

We wer awarded the full amount of interest which would be from 2005. Now we have been told we can only get the interest from 2014 when we took the Bank to Court, and the interest

would only be 4per centand we would be losing a substantional amount of money

We were told this would not affect the full amount of our deposite we were awarded.

It as now been 15 months and we have still not received anything. 

 .I hope you do not have to wait to long for your money. It always baffles me where the money goes and we have to wait so long as if we have not gone through enough heart ache over the years. Ann M

Hi annm

great news winning your case, but not good having to wait so long.

How does that work with your solicitor, does it mean they have to wait for their money too ? if so you would think they would be onto the banks chasing the money. I think its disscusting that they can get away with it so long.

Fingers crossed for us in June when we go to court. We been waiting so long,hope this will be the big day we been waiting for.

Trudge.   We are also in court in June.

i wondered if anyone knows how debt collection in civil matters works.   Once you have a judgement from court, can you use someone like a high court sherif (as in England) to attend premises and collect payment etc.
