I have had two replies from the Halifax to say I knew what the charges were when the account was set up some 15 years ago along with a leaflet of current charges-it also detailed how to avoid charges as if I was still a customer however I cancelled my account with them because of their charges it was if they hadnt read my letter they did itemize their charges so I am now determined to pursue them even if I lose and it costs me- an overdraft was one solution suggested but they turned me down

we are looking at clamming our money back but if we are in our overdraft by 2400. and they paid us back 1000. could they still close the account even though we cany afford to pay the other 1400. as yet

Hi,
Until 3 years ago when illness initiated I had to stop working, I got into serious debt with first the Royal Bank of Scotland and then the Clydesdale Bank, I ran a small business training Point to Point horses, Hunter Liveries and a small stud.
These banks have made my life a misery , firstly with constant bank charges for being slightly overdrawn to assisting in the pressure they put on me becoming ill. My overcharges have amounted to much more than I have spent, how can I try to re-coup some money and help me during my debilitating illness having to spend my precious disability and Income support money paying them back. I once told 1 bank manager that he and his bank were nothing short of being bandits he was mortified!
Yours sincerely,
C.E. Jane Dawson

here is some good news . i was claiming the tsb for £1,500 and got a court
date back in dec 8TH 2006 , but i didnt turn up at court because i just bottled it so i assumed i lost . but out of the blue with no letter from the bank they just paid the money into my account on the 12TH march2007 . when i asked why, all i got was , nobody reallys knows i was told . so my advice to everyone who is claiming keep on going . alec
