    You say that you won, but by my calculations based on your OP:

    They paid you £400 in March 2012.
    They then took back £200 straight away.
    They then took £290 (you don't say when).
    They then took another £498 in May 2012.

    So it looks to me like borrowing £400 for a couple of months actually cost you just short of £500 in "interest".

    If that is a victory, I would hate to think what you class as defeat :rotfl:.

    If you say so but I have an e-mail from them on the 4th April telling me I owed £501 by the next day which is 13 days after I recieved the £200 which obviously means that they thought I took £400. The credit agreement said I owed £495 on a £400 loan if paid back within 14 days but I never recieved that did I?!

    Could it be because some posters only post part of the story showing them to be victims where the reality is very different.

    I hope my POSITIVE reply is to your liking.
