    Hi there

    I am about to send off the the template letter to request a fully comprehensive list of all the default charges for direct debit, unauthorised overdrafts and standing orders I have paid over the last six years. I am aware of the maximum statutory charge of £10 for this, but is this per account as I have three accounts to claim for and my fiance has one as well.

    I'll be grateful if someone could give me some advice.

    Mandy :confused:

    It is one cheque per person not per account, so £10 for your three accounts, and £10 for your fiancees account.

    Hi,

    Can anyone tell me if I have to send £10.00 for each set of statements as I have 2 bank accounts with the same bank, or will I just have to pay £10.00 and receive statements for both?

    Many Thanks

    Kerry

    hi.

    I am wanting to reclaim bank charges from 2 of my accounts there both with the same bank and there both current accounts. The thing i need to know is when you send your ten pound to get all your account history do you have to send ten pound per account or will i have to send 20 pound?

    does anyone know the answer to this?

    thank you

  • Hi all, I'm a newbie, so forgive me if I sound silly!

    I'm about to send off my letters requesting all the default charges under the data protection act. I have three accounts that I am requesting the information for. Two of them are at the same branch, one of which is now closed. The other one is at a different branch (same bank), and this one is also closed.

    My questions are as follows:

    1.) Can I send just one letter quoting the sort codes and account numbers, or do I need to send a separate letter for the account that was held at the different branch directly to them there?

    2.) Do I need to send a separate £10 cheque for each account?
    I somehow doubt that a single £10 cheque would do for all of them!

    Your advice would be very much appreciated!!
    Thanks a mil,
    Leopardess :) x

    The request is for your person so one cheque for all requests will be fine, and I would think you can ask for all three accounts together as well, even if one is with another branch.

    Hi and welcome. You dont sound silly, theres never a silly question if you dont know the answer to it.

    As long as it is the same bank one £10 will do them all.


    Good luck!!
