No chance!! It's fantastic that we can all come on here together and share notes and pinch ideas

is the account closed or is it an overdraft?
Similar happened to me recently (altho it was less). Two people paid money into my old account instead of new! i can't get this back because (because of the charges) I'm over the overdraft limit so I have 'zero available'. however my account isn't frozen as it's got the overdraft and i don't believe they freeze it until it's paid off (could be wrong, they are the only one who haven't acknowledged the DMP) so i think, had my balance been within the o/d limit, I could (and would) have just taken this money out like i would have done when i used to use it! obviously i didn't get to try this tact so this is only an assumption!! but yo could try just taking it back! Unless the account is closed i guess!
its an overdraft & its over its limit because of charges. I tried to log in to internet banking & it wont let meLight Bulb Moment feb 2009

Oo thats weird.. (and maybe a good thing.. haha!
I'm joking.. hmmm... Did you double check the numbers you gave CCCS? .. Mind you.. I can see ONE being wrong maybe.. but not all of them.
It might be worth asking this on the main DFW board.. more people 'in the know' will get to see it.

A notice of default.. (that was fast!)
Still not nasty or scary tho.. Phew!
Something along the lines of
'Thankyou for telling us you are unable to correct the position of your account because of your financial problems. We think the best course of action now is to withdraw your CC facility, so we enclose a Default notice which you should read carefully. We have to send you a notice of default by law before we can terminate your account. (gawwd! wish they would ALL do this!) .. with you and arrange a repayment programme.
At the end of the stipulated period, your agreement will be formally terminated and we shall again contact you with regard to repayment of the outstanding balance.
You will not be able to use your card (return it, cancel any DD) etc etc. (all nice and polite)
.. Phew... thats not too bad then. :T (so far.. anyway haha!) :rotfl:
hiya
just wanted to alert you,,,,keep the envelope and the dn and ensure its actually giving you 14 days from when you receive it to when you have to pay the default amount to avoid the default if that makes sense
a lot of my dn have not complied fully in the way they should be set out ie,,,a lot of bold and capital letters highlighting the critical parts of the dn and also not giving me the clear 14 days,,,it is then defective, a good defense can be done,,,,if they go on and terminate you then all they would be entitled to is the arrears figure, im sure a lot less than the balance, the law is very clear on the default notice being set out and being sent out correctly
its a bit of battle but hey ho, its a worthwhile one to fight back on,,,lots of case law and if can put your arguement across correctly its worth a shot in defending this if it ever gets to court
its my next mission to understand fully
keep all correspondence and all envelopes attached, in a file thats what i now do

Helloooooo :wave:
Ohh I am SUCH a dummy..
What does that mean in Eupho Speak? :rotfl:
(I really AM a dummy
I thought I wanted them to default me.. (I don't care about the credit file 'mark'.. it is the least of my worries) I thought the faster they default me the better.. getting interest/charges stopped etc etc?
I wasn't intending on paying the default amount.... have I got that wrong then? .. :undecided
