Bank Charges

Following on from Beckiboo's post, heres a useful website for bank charges...

They have letters you can send out. Not had a bank charge since uncovering this so not had a chance to try it myself yet. If you have success using these, post in here, be interesting to see if they work...

Am going to try that myself. My bank has charged me £150 in 2 months for going overdrawn with a card that shouldnt let you make payments if you dont have the funds. Will keep you posted

Simple solution: keep a close eye on your finances...I learnt the hard way eventually

and for those of us that can't, try the letters

I sent the letter, and last week my bank offered to refund £410 of the £900 bank charges

Result!!!

What charges had you been paying?

You should push for the whole £900!

I robbed a bank recently and got charged with violent robbery. Hopefully these letters can go some way in reducing the 12 year jail sentence I now face in Brixton prison.

Some of these letters are very impressive - I actually can't wait now until I get another charge from my back !!
