    Hmmm, not too sure....

    You could try a phone call? I actually got my list of charges sent to me from a phonecall - I was cancelling a DD and I asked how to get the list of charges (expecting to be told to write) and the fella said' I can organise that for you' !

    The number that seems popular is 01255 477032 but they may be other numbers too, I know there's an Openplan one that still works....

    Good luck!

    Don't let them Estimate! Gave Powergen a 'real reading' & got £122.16 back that I'd overpaid!
    Mortgage Exit fee - £100 received from the Halifax - for just a phone call!
    Woolwich - received £3,845 refund of bank charges :)

    Well my thinking at the moment is not to bother calling them, coz at the end of the day that's my phone bill being impacted on, not theirs.

    I have most of the statements, so am thinking to work with what I have, and for the missing months to use an average of the other months.

    Any thoughts?

    Well folks, the wait is over...

    Received a letter from Barclays today (even though I wrote originally to the woolwich!) offering 75% of the amount I claimed :beer: so I'm gonna go for it...

    I'd like to thank Martin & all the people on the forum who have helped answer my questions & offered advice - couldn't have done it without you.:D

    Good luck to all the claimers, it works - go do it!

    Well...received TWO lots of statements from Woolwich this morning :)

    Have waded through them, and have generated a list of the charges. Total is £2746.50, plus interest of £839.75, therefore grand total of £3586.25 :eek:

    So next step is to get the next letter off to them, wait and see what they offer I guess...

    Wish me luck ;)
