        Then I've got White confirming in a letter to me that £1408.75 was paid as override commission that was confirmed also by the Broke.
        Then to top that I've got a computer screen shot off the Brokers computer system showing a commission payment of £,3,325.00 was received by them
        On top of the £3,225 brokers fee that we paid.
        Is it as good as that?

              Hi Sofi

              There are only two documents. The first is a copy of your Agreement. The second is a letter to a third party from Loblack. In that letter in the paragraph you are guided to Loblack says that Swift did not tell people of charges prior to October 2008 when a change in the LAW said they had to.
              Read that letter and understand exactly what he is saying in it.

              Do not bother with the tables at this stage

                1. The position in respect of fully secret commissions is as follows: a) The broker is generally to be classed as the agent of the borrower. He will thus be subject to fiduciary duties which require him to act in the best interests of the borrower as opposed to the best interests of himself and/or the lender. b) A broker who arranges to receive a secret commission from a lender in return for procuring the borrower’s entry into a contract with the lender acts in breach of his fiduciary duties. The secret payment will be treated as being akin to a bribe. It does not matter that there was no criminal motive, or active concealment of the payment. c) The secret commission will, in law, be held on trust for the borrower by the broker. The money will belong to the borrower. He can recover it (plus interest) in a proprietary claim against the agent.

                d) The broker will also be liable to forfeit any fee which the borrower may have agreed to pay him. Thus, he will in effect lose the payment he has received from both parties to the transaction. Again, interest could be claimed on any fee paid by the borrower to the agent.
                e) The borrower will also have the option of avoiding the contract with the lender (who will be taken as being complicit in the bribe and jointly and severally liable as a result.If the contract is avoided, the borrower will be entitled to reclaim any sums paid to the lender, but he will have to make counter-restitution of any benefits received from the lender.

                    I think the general opinion is that if there is a stay then do not hand them in.
                    If there is not a stay then hand them in and say that you need an adjournment because the figures, as per the sum you owe, are totally wrong as they are in breach of their own agreement.

                    Prior to October 2008 they were charging interest on charges that you knew nothing about.

                    The tables show how much interest. and TABLE A in particular.

                    It matters NOT if the charges are right, although they have been considered unfair elsewhere, but they have charged interest of £6670.55 on charges THEY DID NOT TELL YOU ABOUT. You can't pay, as per Paragraph M. at the date they pay them if they didn't tell you about them.

                    I hope you can follow that

                              I'm not really in a position to comment on your legal situation but what I will say is there is nothing wrong in being 'human' in court.

                              Refer to your property as your "home" not your "house" because that's the truth despite the fact that Swift may see it otherwise.

                              Good Luck tomorrow and remember if the DJ messes up (legally) you may have an opportunity to appeal.
