what is a "fair" unpaid Direct Debit charge?

Nathan_Spleen

But with these types of account - as in the case of the post office - you cannot pay by direct debit.

but you have to buy food to live whether its a tin of beans, a loaf of bread or a hot dog. So you have no choice in buying food.

We're not talking about food are we? We're talking about beans. Remember?

Ok so i extend to all types off food the store makes a profit on any item of food be it 10%, 50%, 100%, 500% they are profiting from a basic human need so are they infringing on by human rights??

Well you do if you want to avoid paying non-direct debit surcharges.

Besides, direct debits are the subject title of the thread.

Did I mention human rights?

You are still avoiding the question: If you get a tin of beans for 21p what do you get for paying a £35 bounced direct debit charge? I'd be genuinely interested to know.

The choice is whether you run the account in credit or not.

That is not always a choice and it is narrow-minded to think that. The majority of the time it is due to circumstance.

Nathan, I get the impression that Willo and Posted are simply trying to create an argument. They haven't backed up any of their points and cannot answer, fully, the points in response.

What nonsense! And are you going to answer the responses to the points you had made at the beginning of the thread, or continually ignore them?
