It is actually very confusing and upon submission some anomalies have occured, I have emailed MCOL asking for them to be corrected.
For instance there is a box that says “Daily rate of interest up to the date of judgment (%):” with a note saying “This should be entered as an amount. Please ignore the % sign on the screen.”
I want to claim, say, 0.1% per day so I calculated this to be, say, £2.50 and entered this as an amount as requested however upon submitting the claim a paragraph was added to the Particulars of Claim saying “The claimant claims interest under section 69 of the County Courts Act 1984 at the rate of 8% a year from XX/XX/2010 to XX/XX/2010 of £XXXX and also interest at the same rate up to the date of judgment or earlier payment at a daily rate of 2.50%.”
I.e. the amount in the “Daily rate of interest ” should have been a % afterall !!! ...
... so why does it say “This should be entered as an amount. Please ignore the % sign on the screen.”?
Uuuuuuuugh!!!
Thanks all.
