Next credit card/store card

Hello everyone,

I wonder if any of you can help me? I am going through my credit cards whilst not being able to do anything with the bank accounts at the moment, and whilst Egg and Capital One is fairly obvious, I wonder if there is anything that can be done with my Next card?

I am getting a monthly "service charge" of £22.95. Am I able to claim that back?

Many thanks

Gareth

    Give them a call and ask, I think it is interest and not reclaimable but simply ask them what the service charge is.
    I have not worked for NatWest Bank since February 2009

    Ok, thank you very much. I thought that it was the same amount each month, which interest wouldnt be, but maybe not in that case!

    On a slighly seperate case, does anyone know about mortgage accounts (woolwich), and Barclays Partner Finance (finance on PC I bought a few years ago)? Are these companies that I can claim back on? I am certainly being murdered by their charges, which seem very unfair!

    Yes, I have had a bit of a financial problem over the last couple of years!

    Cheers
