Hi,
I have had the same letter and just wondered if anyone knows how long it takes for it to go into your account?

Thanks

From experience, by the time you get the letter the funds are in your account. This may have been delayed by the recent problems however!

I received a letter on 20th September, sent the letter back that same day with my bank details on for them to put the refund in but 3 weeks later I haven't had a peep from them. Did anyone else get a letter about the same time, what sort of time frame did people get their money in?

I'm expected to get £135 and I'm currently in my 1st year at university so the money is going to come in handy!

ER.....

RING,RING, RING... Hello any one at home... :j

If the bank had identified these so called charges and were refunding.
They.....
A. Would already know the account details...
B. have refunded the money to the account, and the letter was just to advise you of what it related too...

NOW GET ON THE PHONE TO YOUR BANK AND TELL THEM WHAT YOU HAVE DONE :eek:

You sir have just been scammed :T

Would agree, this sounds like a scam, and sultryabyss should very urgently get in touch with the bank, to prevent any further damage.

derp =

the derp is strong in someone who sends his details off willingly to fraudsters.

I no longer have that account in question which is why they asked for my current bank details. I also checked the address that the letter needed to be sent to and it is fully legitimate.

So, I am not a derp, nor a derpina and slightly offended!

It could be worse. He could have accused you of not just derping, but also herping derps, which is thousands of times worse.

Its not a scam.. at some point Nat West have applied as they call it " incorrect charges " to some accounts and are now trying to dig themselves out of a very deep hole .
