    You can write or type them out, whichever you prefer. I wrote mine. As you already have them on your PC, then I would just print them off and attach it to the letter.

    You do know theres a hold on reclaiming back the charges at the moment though dont you? Unless you claim for financial hardship.
    I know my spelling is shocking :eek: It is alot better than it used to be though :rotfl:

    I dont really know the rules for Financial Hardship, or what covered or not. Try the search bar at the top right hand corner and search for Financial Hardship. Maybe some threads that would help.

    Good luck :)

    The reality on the ground is that you have priority debt arrears, ie mortgage/rent, utilities, council tax. If you don't then the bank will, in all likelihood not pay out.
    I have not worked for NatWest Bank since February 2009
