All good!
I just got my bank charges refunded by Natwest. I didn't have to make a claim, I sent the preliminary letter and letter before action and they refunded me without me having to make a claim. The charges were £300, a relatively small amount, but big to me. No confidentiality agreement or anything.
So don't delay, get onto yours. Perhaps the banks are having a change of heart and settling smaller claims without the need to go to court.

Well, I posted my LBA yesterday for almost £5,500 so fingers crossed eh?
Mind you, this doesn't include this months charges and interest which will probably amount to another £150...[strike]-£20,000[/strike] 0!0 -
Barclays have been served my claim & have until the 18th to respond or I'll have a default judgement entered.0

Congratulations!
I really must send my LBA - I sent the preliminary a while back, they told me to bog off, and since then I've been too ill to think about it

In July this year, I was charged £680 by Natwest for knocking back all my SOs/DDs. Needless to say, I'll get 'em back at playtime. Just finished drafting my letter!:beer: Lightbulb moment in September 2006. Owed £43,000. Aim to be debt-free by May 2010 by a combination of snowballing, tarting and keeping tighter control over spending0

Well done!
They obviously work on a case-by-case basis, as I've sent the preliminary letter (for a similar amount to yours) to them and was told to p*** off! Will do my LBA this week.0 -
