    £17K Chaps out 7/10
    Left KE 8/10
    Chaps £20 refunded 20/10
    Another £20 Chaps refunded backdated to 7/10 (!!) wow I now have +£20 balance showing on KE. Big woop.
    Destination N/West - still waiting

    If you do email don't bother emailing A Hemmings as I got an auto response saying he would be out of office today.
    Email [EMAIL="richard.tilson@ingdirect.co.uk"]richard.tilson@ingdirect.co.uk[/EMAIL] - that's who I forwarded mine onto.

    Thought I'd update you all - a BIG FAT NOTHING is in my account today. No response to my secure message I left on my KE website log-in. :mad: I've had no email from anyone, no phone call either. Am really despairing now. I fear next step is we end up going down some arduous,lengthy complaints 'procedure' (ie complain formally to KE, then get told to fill out another form for ING, then fill out another form for the FSA!!).

    I will wait, like Ippy Lady said, for 11.30 - to phone my bank. Then ALL HELL IS GOING TO BREAK LOOSE! :eek::mad::eek::mad:

    Really fed up now! I rang Kaupthingedge on the 9th Oct to close my fixed account, the gentleman I spoke to take my details and told me he would do it for me.
    I kept checking the account and the money disappeared on the 22nd October. So I thought it was going to be transferred into my linked account.
    The money reappeared in my Kaupthingedge account plus interest earned on the 27th Oct.
    So I rang them again to ask what was happening, to be told I had to transfer the money myself! Why was I not told this when I spoke to them in the first place? So the money went out and was missing for nearly two weeks before it reappeared again.
    So I did a Chaps transfer and am still waiting…….what a complete nightmare

    aha! somebody has got to stage 1 with a FTB closure - further on than I who wait for migration to the 'easy access' (lol) account. With the latest interest rate news could still be tempted to leave it... by the time you get it back there'll be no decent fixes left available...:mad:
  • UNBELIEVABLE - have logged in to see if everyone had got their money and what we were going to do next re chaps refunds to find that SOME OF YOU ARE STILL WAITING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! On principle I am not prepared to even enquire about my interest nor chaps payment refund until you are ALL reimbursed, just consider myself extremely lucky that mine came through and grateful for all the support I received. Still routing for you, but totally staggered that this farce still hasn't ended.....

    Alastair Hemmings response email to me was just the same as everyone else received.

    He didn't address the main point of my email to him, where I explained that I need MY money returned to fund my impending mortgage payment.
    No more offshore banking for me :rolleyes:

    Unfortunately it's a lot more than some.

    jemimapd - most here have now had their chaps fees refunded. They've gone back into our KE accounts so check there to see.
    2 accounts:-
    1/ BACS requested 7th -left KE 8th - funds received Fri 17th
    2/ CHAPS requested 7th - left KE 8th - funds received Thurs 30th Oct.
    CHAPS fees returned 27.10.08

    STAYING HERE TO HELP AND SUPPORT

    Thanks for the info - so have just checked as have my husband and daughter - all three of us made chaps payments on 6th/7th october and got the money back eventually when the floodgates opened for us all - but no, no chaps refunds, but at the moment I'm certainly not whinging on here considering the mess they have still left some of you in.

    I called KE yesterday as I'm STILL waiting for my CHAPS transfer that I made on the 8th to Barclays. I was told that I was one of a 'handful' of people still waiting. Also that someone would call me in the next 48hrs. When I asked when I would get my money, I was told they could put no time scale on that! Any comments?
    I have money!!!!:j :j :j :j 31st October 3.30pm. Organised by nice lady from E & Y, very, very grateful.

    £20 debit for CHAPS received 27th - dated 7th on A/C

    Same as jemimapad, funds back, but no CHAPS refund, which I'm not in the slightest interested in pursuing at present until all here have their main funds recovered.

    By chasing at this point, someone at KE/ING will need to look into it; let's just have them concentrate on the main business in hand.

    PS, I've turned into a lurker...........
