Bank charges (is it too late?)

Hi, First off, I'm new... Hello!

I'm Matt =D

I've been viewing the boards and love the advice you all give (and Martin, of course!)

I have been living under a brick for some time now and i'm just catching on to all this reclaiming bank charges thingymebob.

Is it too late to submit a claim?

Luckily I have access to online archives with Halifax that show since August 2007 I have paid 319 quid in charges for late standing orders/failed direct debits.

What do you lot recon? Worth a shot? I have tried reading up but there is a wealth of info and cant seem to find the answer.

Many thanks in advance.

Matt =D
Over 12 months with no late payments! That's like really good for me! :A

    CLAIM THEM BACK!

    The section on this site 'reclaiming bank charges' should give you some good pointers on how to deal and proceed. ;)
  • Many thanks.

    With help from the site I have my claim letter done for posting tomorrow.
