Oscar and Sammiboo - I live in Oswestry and work in Wrexham - it's such a small small world!
I also know the Boars and Gibsons well (not sure whether or not I should admit to that!!

I concur, definately do not admit to knowing Gibsons - its almost as bad as admitting i used to drink in Club XS in wrexham

Well the job I have applied for is at ssvg - just near the fire/abulance station..

Anyway back to topic/my rant....

Jus had a letter today from barclays telling me they have charged me £30 because i have gone £13.82 over my overdraft :mad:

I have this second got off the phone to them calling them all the names under the sun and set a complaint in.

I have threatened them if they do not refund the £30 for the sake of £13.82, i will close my account and change banks! (shhh )

I will be getting a call in the next few days, i was basically told i should manage my money better.... to which i replied " maybe that would be possible if you theiving gits would stop taking my money"


Everything I had was with barclays, account, loan, credit card, savings...

And gradually i am taking everything away from them!!!

I cant wait till my new account is set up with A&L!!

I had a letter yesterday telling me they will as a good gesture refund the £30 but is a one off. We'll see

I will be looking into getting back all my charges in the next few weeks.

I suppose they wouldnt want to lose my custom as they take so much money off me

My A&L account is now open :j

Ive had a letter today from A&L saying that barclays havent supplied them with my direct debit details. They said they are writing to them again. Anyone else had any problems like this?

Presume you've also been following the Budgeting & Current Accounts threads - loads of good / bad / indifferent experiences re A&L. Just don't get ME started!
