Response to Urgent - evicted 9 days ago

from Chris (chrsh@hotmail.com)
I did have one thought, although this really IS a long-shot.

If you can prove, somehow, that the lender (UCB) have been negligent in it's duty towards you, then you may (very slim chance) be able to get the reposession nullified.

I suspect this will not be possible as you were aware of the impending reposession (you contacted them to try and get it stopped, so you must have known), and you were in arrears so, technically, are in breach of the terms of the mortgage.

I don't want to discourage you, as, even if you DID have a case, UCB have most of the cards now (they have your property !), so if they contested you'd still be no better off until the situation was resolved. They would almost certainly appeal if you somehow managed to succeed, and you'd be no better off than you are now as I doubt you'd be allowed back into your property.

I really, REALLY, think your best course of action is to accept this, even though I am sure it must be hard, and look to the future. If you don't have somewhere to live, then contact your local council - most council's have emergency lines that are 24 hours for this sort of thing. I know it sounds bizarre, but if you go to your local police station they normally know this number.

Sorry I can't be of more help Laura.
