    Hi i reclaimed my charges from hsbc (now trying to reclaim from second acc with them) they sent me the same letter saying they were looking into it and they would be in touch in x amount of days and once the time was nearly up they repaid me! so its a good sign

    hi thanks for that but they did not state an actual date only that they were looking into it!
    my original letter was dated 1st April and they replied on the 11th so do i give them another 2 weeks and see what happens, even though the 2 weeks i gave them have elapsed?

    sorry for being a pain !!
