Is it worth trying?

Between 2009-2011 I went through a rough money patch. I was on benefits & basically living off nothing. I was paying a horrific amount to a door step lender each week, so did not leave a lot. I ended up in this period paying out $1200 in bank charges, basically to just get by. (sorry my pound sign will not work!)
I sorted myself out after that started working, still having to be frugal constantly but no bank charges!! ;)
Is it worth even attempting to claim back??
I have spent 40 minutes working out how much I paid in charges, it made me cross so much was taken!
Thank you
