Advice on LLoyds TSB Bank Charges

Neemi

Just a quick question to people who have claimed back bank charges on LLoyds TSB.... we are about to submit our first bank charges letter.

The below are what we have been charged against with the descriptions as they are on the statements over the past 6 years and was wondering what we can actually include on the claim:

My instinct tells me to submit and include all of the below but wanted advice...

O/D USAGE FEE £420.00
O/DRAFT INTEREST £1,304.84
RETURNED D/D £230.00
RETURNED S/O £10.00
UNPLANNED O/D FEES £505.00

Much appreciated in advance.

I would suggest the first thing to do is understand which bank, you bank with.

Are you in current financial hardship and still with the same bank eg Lloyds or TSB? If so you should ask the bank whether they can help you in relation to your current situation.

I'm guessing most of the charges you listed are historic so I'm afraid you are not going to get very far with them unless the charges were incorrectly levied.

Lloyds TSB no longer exists. So, which bank is it that you are referring to?

The below are what we have been charged with the descriptions as they are on the statements over the past 6 years and was wondering what we can actually include on the claim:

None of them. The banks won the court case back in 2009. Since then they no longer refund charges unless part of a goodwill gesture to help those in current financial hardship. In those cases, its typically less that 6-12 months that they go back over. Although in extreme cases of hardship, they will go back further.

And for the record, interest was never reclaimable. Even in the days when you could get your charges back.

I'd understand better if you could explain why you think these charges can be reclaimed?
