    Thumbs up Result!!!!!!!

    Further to Plasma's thread about bank charges, I thought you might like this thread -

    About 4 weeks ago, I sent a letter to the bank complaining about the high charges they had made to use over the past few years, and requesting refund of the same (well, you don't get if you don't ask, do you!?!) They responded a week or two ago, saying they were 'looking into it' and I thought no more about it.

    Lo and behold, this morning a letter dropped on the doormat offering £490 out of court settlement!!!

    How cool is that?!?!

    Needless to say. Drinky and I are chuffed to bits!!

    I sent them a spreadsheet detailing every charge they have made to us over the past two years and totalled it up. Tbh, they had actually charged us over £800, but for the price of a first class stamp, I though this was bl00dy brilliant!!! It is possible to push it through court and get more, but this incurs charges you can reclaim, but have to initially pay up front, which we weren't prepared to do.

    Nice to see a bit of good news, eh?!

    Me and my girlfriend are doing the same thing right now, but we won't be accepting a penny less than the full amount.

    If you have a read over on http://www.penaltycharges.co.uk on the forum, there are thousands of folk who have followed this through and not one of them has lost. They have all recieved a full refund.

    Did the letter contain any clauses etc?

    You don't have to pay much upfront for the court.

    Well done Lou, glad to see they coughed up some dollars for ya. Its so tempting to take the money and run isnt it

    I couldnt be bothered with the hassle of going to court either. End of the day is money you didnt have before so as to speak.
