Can I close account and where do I stand now???

Options
Hi Everyone,

I had a bank charge case put on hold, where do I stand now? Any real chance of getting the money back?

Also can I close the account the charges relate to, and still claim if possible when all this gets sorted out???

I have been told so many different things!! Some say closing the account makes no difference to reclaiming and others say the only way to get the money back is for them to put the cash back in the same account, which they couldnt do if I close the account!!

Cheers!

    Is the a/c in credit or debit?

    Closing the account will make no difference to reclaiming, but you will only be able to close the a/c if it is in credit
