All but 1 of my account (listed below) were closed. Just use Martin's template letters and get your money back! Even if it don't cover all you still owe you will owe them lessAnd don't accept less than 80% of your charges back!
Got It & Spent It :dance:IKEA CARD = £120 charges = £175 received (146%)MARBLES = £450 charges = £370 received (82%)I.F. = £494 charges = £494 received (100%)CAPITAL ONE = £981 charges = £1,489.03 (152%)BARCLAYCARD = £580 charges = £786.12 (136%)On Hold :mad:A+L = £722 charges (target = 147%)BARCLAYS = £1,405 charges (target = 128%)BARCLAYS = £175 charges (target = 140%)ABBEY = £3,220 charges (target = 148%)0 -

Yes you can claim on a closed account and they should be able to find your old account from your name, address and date of birth.Reclaimed thanks to this site:

If it was a joint account would they issue a joint refund? When I was with ex Oh we had LOADS fo bank charges but the ex is missing now. Wondered if it was worth claiming.Member no.1 of the 'I'm not in a clique' group :rotfl:

Doesn't matter whether the account is closed or not, you can claim regardless.Reclaimed thanks to this site:
