Puzzed over reclaiming etiquette!!!!

Hi guys

Can I attempt to reclaim charges on a Paragon loan? Has anyone done it? If so how was it?

Also, has anyone paid off all their debts from a DMP and then claimed back charges afterwards?
:rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes: :confused::confused::confused:

  • Mainly unpaid DD charges ... they wouldn't change the DD due date so it used to bounce alot and then get paid a week later - £25.00 a go - £10 for a letter and £20 for a phone call!!!

    Why cant you start reclaiming till everything is paid off?

    You might want to get on with it now in case theres a legal change of some sort
