Barclays have been sat on a amount of money that should have been paid to me 7 years ago. Will the money have gained interest and should that be paid to me.
Thank you.
Thank you.

Possibly. But it depends on what the money and account are.
If it was a savings account paying interest of any sort, then of course but is likely to be .1% or similar. If it was PPI that they have taken a long time sorting then definitely and more likely to be the industry standard of 8%.I’m a Forum Ambassador and I support the Forum Team on Debt Free Wannabe, Old Style Money Saving and Pensions boards.

It depends on the circumstances of why they were sitting on it and why and how it should have been paid to you.0
