  • Letter Before Action not defended

    Dear Sir/ Madam,

    Help needed on what I can do next.

    I wrote to my Landlord, a Housing Association, ("HA") regarding claiming money back which was taken in way of unlawful service Charges. I sent the email on the 22nd of June 2023. I received a reply from their legal team on the 4th of April requesting for extra-time. I granted the extra-time, which gave my HA the extra time which they had requested, this gave them until 4pm on the 25th July.

    Should my landlord not file a defence by 4pm today, what can I do?


    I appreciate any assistance you can offer


    Kind regards

    I think you mean to ask what you should do should your landlord not reply to your letter by 4.00 pm today. But they still have 4 hours!

    The answer is that in that case you take whatever action you said that you would take if the matter could not be resolved. Normally that action would be commencement of a County Court claim.
