    Business accounts get a different level of consumer protection as you are not effectively a consumer but in a business contract. Especially in the cases of limited companies.

    There is no "same way" to claim back charges as since the courts ruled in favour of the banks, the chances of you claiming and being successful are minimal and possibly with risk.

    So, what charges are you talking about on the business account?

    I would repost this on this forum:

    They will help but that is the only advice I can give re business claims.
