  • No problem I'm just going to "shift" you into the thread about credit cards :)
  • Can't find a thread but are there any success stories of the burton store card.

    MY a/c is now with a DCA so If I can claim the charges that account will be paid off.

    es you can. Send them a Subject Access Request. They will hae to send you all details of your account for the last six years then you follow usual procedure. I got mine from Capital One. Closed the account 4 years ago and bout to go to MCOL stage
  • Hi everyone,

    I have had a number of credit cards managed by MBNA over the years but unfortunately I can't remember exactly how many or who they were with. Definitely the usual eg Abbey, Virgin, MBNA but there may be others I've forgotten. I don't have account details or anything! I was thinking about writing to them and asking for details of all my accounts and providing one £10 cheque.

    Has anyone taken this type of approach with MBNA before and did it work?

    Any help would be gratefully received!

    Thanks to you all for this amazing site - keep up the good work - you helped me make a successful claim against the RBS!:rotfl:
  • Its certainly worth a try to start with or you would have to write separate cheques and letters.
  • does anyone have an address for burtons ge money?

    im going for it :)
  • also this has been passed to CL finance.

    do i deal with them or GE money??
  • Hi

    Have i got the wrong end of the stick? Can i claim my charges back from my Credit card companys for things like late payments and over limit charges? Also they have just reduced the charge fee and does that make a differance to what i can claim?

    Request for repayment of charges sent 05/02/07
    Letter before Action sent 19/02/2007

  • Yes you can.

    I'm currently claiming back from a total of 5 current and ex cards.

    Had a positive respose with Barclaycard, immediately refunding £291 through a 'good will gesture' and am of course now pursuing for the rest I am claiming for via claim/court letter two.

    However on the other end of the scale Marbles(HFC) are flately refusing to offer me anything.

    Hi,

    I am interested in claiming back charges that go back 6 years. My problem is I have been with Abbey for 6 months (only £30 charges so far), Lloyds for around 18 months (£1000 approx), and before that I was with Barclays Bank who I know charged me all over the place, but will they still have my statements? Even though I don't bank with them?
