Hi! I am new to this forum, and have joined to hopefully, amongst other things, get some advice on reclaiming my bank charges. I have been reading through all the threads (OMG there are loads!) and I can't seem to see anything about whether it is possible to claim charges on an account that is now closed.

I am going to send off the letter requesting notification of my charges for the existing account, but about 2 years ago, my ex and I closed our joint account after struggling for ages to pay off an overdraft that just crept up due to charges, because we were not using the account and the bank would not freeze it, even though we were in the middle of a divorce and the Solicitor was going to pay it all off from the sale of the marital home.

Can anyone tell me whether I can go back and claim these charges, or is it only on accounts that are "live".

I apologise if I have missed the answer to this question on another thread somewhere!

Does anybody know if it is possible to claim bank charges on an account that was closed over a year ago?

Just a note to anyone with a closed account who doesn't have the account number....

After advice on here OH went into the branch he used to have an account at and asked if he could find out his old account number so he could request some copy statements.... they asked his name, address, date of birth and then wrote down the number for him!!!

Makes our life easier!

Next - letter to be sent requesting the list of charges

Hi, sorry i'm a bit new to this. The bank I am with at the moment do not owe me anything but I have 2 closed accounts with Natwest and Barclays from my student days....they are now closed because they ripped me off!!!!!!! I don't have any paperwork with the account numbers on and don't even know if you can claim from a closed account at a bank you no longer use? Can anyone help me and give me some advice on what to do??? Would really appreciate it!!!! X
