After learning that many people have claimed back their charges i decided to give it ago, and i`m glad i did.
Sent for may statements using the DPA SAR letter, thay arrived several weeks later, added up all the charges that came to roughly £1.8k, sent my prelim (recorded delivery) off to Stuart Higley and got a standered reply saying `charges are fair, reasonable and transparent`, sent my lba and....got another standard letter off them saying they are disapointed i am unsatisfied and contemplating legal action etc.
Filed my N1 (better than mcol) at the local county court, recieved an acknowledgment from Cobbetts saying they intend to defend the whole claim. Recieved a defence from Cobbetts along with a CPR Pt 18 request.
Then i recieved a letter from Cobbetts offering me a goodwill payment of £850 to drop the case, I declined. After that I filed my allocation questionaire and got some court directions from the judge, it had been allocated to the `fast track` and on the 1st november (that was the day the judge had ordered the defendant to disclose costs) i recieved a cheque for 2.5k (includeing interest and costs).
