Hi there,
just had the shock of the day.
Currently working as a freelancer as in between jobs. So get paid sporadicly. Anyway, could nt make the mortgage payment on time as I hadnt been paid and asked for a payment date in the same months just 10 days later. B&W whad no problem with that. Mortgage came out this morning and normal monthly payment increaseed by £455!!!!!:eek:
Rang them straight away and they said it must be an admin mistake and they would refund the money in the next 5 days. Phweeeewww!
But what about the interest???? Can I claim that back from them????
Many thanks
Susann

No reason why you can't ask but work it out first.
I would guess it would be quite small for a few days (and you are probably taxed on savings interest), so it may well not be worth the cost of a stamp or phone call.0 -
5 days of £455 in a regular account? how much interest is that?Remember the time he ate my goldfish? And you lied and said I never had goldfish. Then why did I have the bowl Bart? Why did I have the bowl?0

I should have said, that as a result of the overcharge I am now very deep into my agreed overdraft...hence the question about the interst...Challenges:
