    Wyth, thank you. I hadnt realised they were limited by law. I thought it was just a DPA issue. I apologise to MBNA.

    There is no limitations act with that limit.
    its the 1980 limitation act, time barring basically. as the op didnt complain about the charge within 6 years.

    firms are using it more and more now.

    other firms like you have mentioned refer to the 6 years for dpa issues, but in this case if they refer to limitation they mean the above.

    The FOS will not consider credit card charge related complaints from before April 2007, because they didn't take on jurisdiction for credit related complaints until that date.
