Help, I really want to change banks but not sure if I can do it whilst trying to reclaim unfair bank charges? Can I change banks?

You can move to a basic bank account or current account elsewhere - especially if you are overdrawn the debt becomes contested whilst you reclaim and you can make a fresh start. Don't ignore the old bank. Claim financial hardship and make a claim for your fees.

I did this and ended up in credit after all the to and forth.
