    what are the dates?

    what are the recent transactions?


    End of 2017. They used to do a cashback offer so I used the account for that and transferred money from my main account into it. Once they stopped that I cleared the account to 0 after the 300 over draft and never logged in again. I completely forgot I would get a blinking charge - What a muppet :eek:


    So there are no recent transactions. The last thing on teh account was the £6 charge in 2017

    i am with TSB and they charge £6 every time you use your overdraft in a month.


    So its just for the month you take the over draft out and not for every month after that you haven't paid it back?

    No because I don't use it at all. So thought I had cleared it at 0 and all was hunky dory LOL.

    I am sorry, none of this makes much sense without seeing the actual detail of the transactions on your account.

    If your balance was zero before the £6 was charged, you'd again be in an overdraft for the next month and have another £6 added, so at least £12 overdrawn, then £18, £24 etc etc.

    In any case, nobody here can do anything to sort your issue. You'd be best advised to ask TSB.

    I don't think they can charge for going overdrawn because of one of their charges anymore. That used to be the case, but I believe it was deemed as unfair. Also they may have a £10 buffer like Natwest have. So if you go into your overdraft by less than a tenner you don't get charged the £6.

    Obviously now overdrafts are changing, so the £6 fee won't be applicable from April

    Thats's kinda what I was wondering tbh.



    Also whilst I don't intend to do this as £6 aint that much ... If hypothetically I wasn't to pay that £6 would I incur future charges post March?


    I can't believe they hadn't wrote me a letter in the post or something to harrass me sooner :-o

    if you are not in positive balance by the end of the month then you've used your overdraft and will be charged £6. that's before interest and any fees, if applicable.
