I have sent my first letter to Llyods asking for a list of charges which they have sent me.
I now need to find an address to send my second letter to, asking for the money back, as i closed my account a year ago. Can anyone help? Is is just the same place i sent the first one?
Also if they agree to pay the money will they just send me a cheque or will i need to give them my new account details?
Thanks0 -
Same place you sent the first one.
Can't say about the payment though i'm waiting to hear about charges on my closed account to.0 -

I had a business a/c with Bank of Scotland until last November, when I switched to NatWest & closed the a/c in disgust due to my ill treatment by the so-called 'relationship manager.'
I didn't know about claiming back the charges at this time and so simply wrote to their customer services to complain.
Anyone know if I can claim in arrears now the a/c is closed?
Hope so......0 -
Yes. You still have a right to justice. Look on the bright side - at least you won't have to worry about them closing your account!The acquisition of wealth is no longer the driving force in my life.

Should I just follow the same system, obviously telling them that I closed my account because of these unfair charges?
Any advice would be really welcome. I have the statements.0 -
Yep, just proceed like everyone else. The account being closed won't make a difference.0

is it possible to claim against an account i closed a few years ago??
if so can i go and get my statements from the branch in the same way as normal?
on a brighter note i got a letter offering me a full refund of my charges today from my current bank so thank you to all on these threads who helped me!!!!0 -
Hi
Yes you can, just bear in mind the 6 year deadline. I'm currently claiming from Barclays. Closed the account in 2004.0
