Is it still possible to claim for bank charges? I thought the test case killed any chance of that
Thanks

The banks won the court case. So, now, only goodwill payments (such as first time mistakes by the account holder or those meeting a financial hardship criteria) are considered. You cant use the old unfair approach.I am an Independent Financial Adviser (IFA). The comments I make are just my opinion and are for discussion purposes only. They are not financial advice and you should not treat them as such. If you feel an area discussed may be relevant to you, then please seek advice from an Independent Financial Adviser local to you.0

Reclaiming is all but dead apart from financial hardship cases and goodwill offers for first time offenders.
Credit cards are still possible but it was said recently that most CC providers have now justified their charges in the eyes of the FOS. So, if you have to be prepared to go to court on those (it may not get that far).I am an Independent Financial Adviser (IFA).
