virgin have told me the only ways i can pay it which ive already explained which was from there head office

Maybe I'm missing something here, but why can't you just make the payment to the "normal" bank details (i.e. the Faster Payment one for making regular or overpayments, not the CHAPS one for settlement payments) then call and ask for a settlement figure. They'll say there's a zero balance so there won't be any need to make a settlement payment.


Surely that's the simple solution?

Make a faster payment, all but £1 then get a settlement figure for the remainder. The reason they are asking for your to use CHAPS is because there will be a fee to pay for the payment and for the early closure, to migate this, make a payment and then get the closing total on the lowest amount.

This is the same advice I offer for loans and Mortgages.

ive decided to cancel the 9k request in cash, and ask for a bankers cheque and pay the £20 fee, and yes the funds are all legal tax paid etc
