    Subject access request with statutory fee of £10 to barclaycard for all statements from the time you opened the account. Then add up the charges and claim the lot back. If there is still an outstanding balance then that amount of charges will be taken from what is owed.

  • Hi thanks for your reply natweststaffmember just one more thing , if my reclaim fails will the statue barred period of 6 years restart?

    ALL statements since the account began. The 6 year bit is completely irrelevant.
