Newcastle BS Cheek!

After all the hassle I had opening a 4 year ISA with Newcastle BS who then closed the account and wouldn't allow me to fund it, they said they would credit me back the 500GBP deposit.

I've just looked at my bank statement and they have credited 491.12 :mad::mad:

Anyone else experienced this?

TIA

    That's inflation for you - it erodes the value of money....... ;)

    Seriously though, anything in their cancellation clause?

    Probably a penalty charge.

    Great!!!! ..... a penalty charge on their agreement that they had made a mistake letting me put the initial 500GBP deposit and would return it! :mad::mad:
