Bank Charges

Hi,

Am in the process of being set up on a DMP and my partner on an IVA and I wondered if you can re-claim bank charges while on these.

Every month over £200 is being added in charges and at the moment we are paying £50 per month.

Just seems like there is no way out from this mess!!

Thanks,
Pinky

    As far as I am aware you can reclaim charges. Might be worth posting on the bank charge reclaim board on MSE though - they have far more knowledge!

    Nothin to stop you reclaiming, however i think that they do have the right to set any "goodwill payments" as they like to refer to them against your debt.
    No Longer works for MBNA as of August 2010 - redundancy money will be nice though.
