  • RBS Bank decision, right?



    Yes from the collections dept of the RBOS...just got everything crossed !
    I am going to try and second guess them.
    Do you have priority debt arrears(mortgage or rent, council tax, utilities)?
    Do you have non priority debts(credit cards, store cards, catalogues, loans)?
    I have not worked for NatWest Bank since February 2009

  • im in financial difficulty at moment , partly my fault, couple of things have occurred , as expecting monies from late fathers estate went a bit ballistic with expanding debts , the monies have still not yet materialised so now find myself over stretched , also my daughter has went off to uni so have dropped about £250 in tax credits and family allowance. I am on my own with kids , father doesnt contribute as at the time we seperated he paid off a joint loan and i agreed that he didnt contribute. anyway , would i have a case for hardship in your opinion.. I am in the process of setting up a DMP with CCCS. I am in fulltime employment and my salary hasnt gone down .. help.. the refund of bank charges now would be a real help ... i am in unauthorised overdraft as one of my creditors has taken monies via guaranteed cheques and nothing i could do to stop cheque even though i set up a stop £10 per cheque (5 cheques) . I have made the bank aware of my financial issues Need advice

    My guess is hopeful and my other advice is to reclaim the credit card charges

  • I know its only a small amount but £98 is a lot for us as I only work part time due to looking after my daughter and this really helps so I just wanted to let people know that its still possible to get something with relatively no hassle so don't let the legal battle put you off.

    I was hoping you would say no. Gut feeling says they may say that you aren't in financial hardship now. I think you would have been earlier in the process because of arrears building up but if they are being repaid they may see this as having sufficient money to cover priority creditors and more to pay off arrears. However, ask them the question and we will see what they say.
