Bank Chasing me personally for Ltd Company O/draft

In 2002 I took out a bank account for my business, a Ltd company, and provided all documents, certificate of incorporation etc. The business went bust last year and there was an overdraft on the account. The bank have started chasing me for the debt, however I have never given a…

Mobile App that Shows Pending Transactions
Hi, Long time reader, first time poster :) We've been with First Direct for many years and only after spending a year in Australia and using Suncorp as our main bank have I realised just how poor their online / mobile banking actually is.

(Late) Direct debits - Liverpool Victoria
Anyone else had any LV DDs taken a week later than normal? I thought the DD guarantee meant that payments should always get taken on the same day (if a non working day). Normally mine get taken on the 1st - this month the 9th.
