I have recently graduated from university, during my three years studying I incurred over £1300 in bank charges, mainly due to recieving charges on charges, I recently tried to claim my charges back and they wanted up to date financial infromation, my only concern here is now that I have graduated my income is now over three times what it was while at university. If I claim for that three year period do I just specify my incoming and out going financial commitments? Is it ok to claim for financial hardship even if Im technically in it now?Any help will be welcomed, Thanks, Sam.

I'd say no to be honest, the point of a financial hardship claim to to alleviate your financial difficulties. It's not really there to be treated as a savings account you can tap up when you feel a bit tight one month! So if you're not in financial difficulties now and your income/expenditure shows that then it's unlikely you'll get anything back using that approach.
