Congratulations. It is a great feeling isn't it? Well worth the effort. Any ideas on what you will be putting the money to?

Well done! I don't know anybody who has not succeeded. And still no-one has had to go to court!

The important question is : have you learnt your lesson?

The fact you incurred fees means there was some breach in terms and conditions. Most people are so caught up in getting the refund that they fail to acknowledge the reasons that caused them to rack up in the first place.

well done you! I started the process in august but they never replied within 14 days and I never sent the letter recorded delivery so I couldn't prove it had been sent! I'm gonna start the process again this week as I'm out the country for 2 weeks from friday so I'll remember when I get home to send the second letter!

How long did the process take you? I'm reclaiming £223
