  • Notice of allocation to the small claims track

    I issued a claim on line agaist a travel agent over a suitable refund for a cancelled return flight last April at the height of the Covid crisis. I issued the claim action following a rejected Section 75 claim. i have now received a Notice of allocation to the small claims track.
    It says unles the claimant by (time and date) pay to the court the Trial Fee of £25or file a properly completed application(ie one that provides all theinformation ina manner requested) for help with fees , then claim the claim will be struck out etc etc. you will also be liable for the cost the Defendent has incurred.
    I registered the claim on line and paid £25. Is the £25 asked for a Trial Fee and additional fee of the same one that I have already paid. I made an itemised witness statement and supplied supporting documentation and handed this in to the court over a month ago.
    I am now very concerned as I can't get an answer to waht this is all about and I could be liable for costs. I thought that I had doen everything required of me.

    There are two types of fees: issue fee and trial fee (also known as hearing fee).

    The £25 you paid via MCOL was the issue fee that is to get the claim started. If the parties haven’t settled the case by the a certain time and proceeds to trial, you need to pay a trial fee based on the value of the claim.

      OK I will pay the trial fee but the Notice of Allocation doesn't say where the payment is made, I assume it is an online payment but their are no account details.

        Either send a cheque to the court that will be hearing the claim or you can call them and make a card payment over the phone.
