Massive Charges by HAlifax

laura2481

Just checked my bank account and they are charging me £168 in fees for some payments they honoured when i went over my overdraft limit this month. I bought some thing in Argos for £9.99 which they have charged me £35 for. ANd actually Argos took the amount twice- i only bought one thing but they took £9.99 twice and i got charged £35 twice so that was £80 for one bloody toilet seat! (which i what i bought!) But i threw away my receipt so now can't proove i only got one aaargh! They are also charging me £35 for £1.46 paid to Tesco and £35 for £7.80 to Tesco!!

I don't know what to do. I can't afford the fees. I am already £78.42 overdrawn and my limit is £250 so now I have no money and no way to pay! And I still have my Barclaycard bill to pay!!!!

Actually just checked my statement and Argos refunded £9.99 but still getting charged £35 for it and it was their fault! AAAARrgghh! Don't know what to do.

Argos are actually liable for their £35.00. The bank can charge you but you have to claim it back from Argos. Thats what the Halifax told me a couple of months ago when a company took money they shouldnt have that took my account overdrawn.
