Go For It
Treat Them With The Contempy They Treat Us As Customers, If A Supermarkey Or Other Commercial Enterprise Treated Us Like Th Banks Do They Would Be Out Of Business.

And Now Have My Result

I have an online account with Cahoot, as everything is done online I eceive no paper statements or o/d letters. They are charging me £30 a time, at least 3 time in the last year. I will have to contact them for previous years details.
As they send no letters shouldn't I be insisting on claiming back every penny? The notification appears as a message in my online account, so technically should cost them nothing to inform me of the charges.0 -
We now have rec'd a letter from our bank saying "without obligation as a measure of goodwill" £3495. Well worth the letters. Sent back the acknowledgement today. Thank you so much Martin and administrators for showing consumers that it is worth complaining.

Sent 2 letters to RBS asking for £1212.00, received a letter from RBS on the final day before completeing a claim against them for £1212.00
Im going after my 3 old credit cards now to see if I can get anything back from them.
Martin thanks for you help, you a star.0 -
£800.00. Paid into my account today.
I wrote the first letter, then went straight to Moneyclaim. They paid up about a week after I had notification that they were willing to take it to court.
Waiting to hear from Natwest for Visa and RBS for Mastercard.
Used the money towards paying off my current Lloyds TSB credit card. It's now half paid off.... woohoo!!0 -
Could someone please point me at the forum message number for this? It's in response to Miss Miggins 14/11/2006 on the main board
Thanks
........... Some (actually only one has ever got this far) might actually attempt to win in court - they may claim that the charges are for an extra service and therefore not a penalty, and thus legally enforceable. If this happens, come to the forum - we have this angle covered, it's slightly more complicated but worth it in the long run.'0 -
HELP PLEASE!
Any help would be hugely appreciated.....
Am I required by law to send anything to the bank's solicitors? They have entered a defence and have sent me pack of "request for more information". The thing is, everything is written in my POC and I sent the bank a list of all the charges twice. I really don't want to be doing the solicitors or the banks job for them.0 -
I sent a letter to RBS on 2nd February asking for £1112 plus £237.37 interest and they offered me the full amount of the charges (less interest) which I accepted. The money was in my account by 26th February. It was really easy to do.0

If it gets the claim going just send them what they want. If you write to say no you have this it just delays the process.0

HELP! Today I sent off my first letter with a table of my charges requesting that they pay back my charges. However, I have just received a letter telling me that nearly £70 will come out of my account on 09.03.07.
What do I do now? The amount I have requested back does not include this as I was unaware of this amount until today?
HELP!
You can add this charge up until the court stage but not until the charge has actually been taken.0
