  • Reported! Thanks for the bullying guys! Maybe try and get a life in 2010 yes? I am absolutely disgusted with this part of the forum and it amazes me how confident and vile people are when they are hidden behind a computer screen.

    Absolutely pathetic and vile! People like you, spoil this website. Please read the forum ettiquette and get a life! I came here for advice and got slaughtered. I don't know why you chose to have a problem with me but your attitudes are an absolute disgrace.

    I can imagine you all, checking back here, waiting for a reply from me...and will spend the rest of the day trying to make it much worse. Maybe if you got a job or found something constructive to do with your lives, you wouldn't take pleasure in bullying a 25 year old student who was genuienly looking for help.

    Get a grip guys...and try and live life in the real world...not starting wars from behind the safety of your computer screens.

    Natalie, Good luck please let us know how it all pans out, I genuinely hope you get the apology you deserve!

    Hi there, I really need help [STRIKE]concerning a matter that happened last tuesday. 12/01/10. To cut a long story short, i was wrongly accused of fraud in my local abbey/santander branch. Both my accounts were closed (leaving me with no bank account) i was told of the suspect fraud in the public vicinity of the branch (not in a private room) and was told that i was no longer to bank with them. I was highly upset obviously. Later, on the phone...they admitted a serious error had occured on their part and they reinstated my 2 cards and put an amount of money into one of them as a good will gesture (i didnt ask them to or agree to do this...they informed me after they had done this) I will not touch the money and have written a letter to them this morning (finally feel up to it) I am emotionally fragile at the mo and am devastated about this. A solicitor has advised to write first of all but can anyone advise me of anything else i can do. I can send people a copy of the letter if they wish on request. Shall I contact the press? not sure what to do.
    Thanks in advance
    Natalie[/STRIKE]

    Acceptance, the first stage to recovery.

    I have to say I have not seen anything abusive, but maybe its already been deleted.

    But do try not to let a few posts affect you or get to you in such a way, simply click on "ignore" to anyone you feel is being uncivil. On a latter note I hope you get this matter resolved, ensure it is offered just as publicly as it was given to you ;) Good Luck!!!!!

  • some mistakes have the potential to damage a person's life financially and healthwise.
    Some do yes.

    This is, in essence, switching bank accounts though, which quite a lot of people will have done.

    Although, you do say "reinstated", so you presumably have the same account numbers. You were out of bank account for what?
    A few hours?
    And they have apologised, with cash.

    Sorry, but I think you need to get a little perspective here.

    BTW, your attitude to the members of this forum has been hardly angelic so i don't think you have much room to complain.
    This is my opinion. There are many others like it but this is mine

    OP how much did you actually receive from the back as a apology as you havent said and I wondered if you have been able to check yet ?

    I can understand it was embarassing but they have reinstated your accounts, apologised and given you some form of goodwill gesture i am not sure what else they can do really?

    If it bothering you this much open accounts and bank elsewhere.

    Good luck
