    ah that's crap- I hate people who do that. And it always seems to happen to the people who can afford it the least/who it will do the most damage to! I know 7 days is a while, but my friend had £50 taken from her account then obviously charges/bounced d ds etc and it took 8 weeks to sort everything out. Everytime her wages went in her bank assumed it had been sorted (ie she had money in there) because her balance was healthier. She had to fight for that £50.... ggrrrr angry-smiley-030.gif
    Hope it all works out xx

    I had 2 lots of £30 removed from my account a few years ago. I wouldn't have noticed but it took me overdrawn and I knew there was no way I had gone overdrawn in that month.
    I felt absolutely furious about it, how dare this devious b*stard take this money that I have worked for.
    The bank were most helpful and refunded the money immediately but didn't seem bothered about pursuing the case!

    It's easy to give in to that negative voice that chants "cant do it" BUT we lift each other up.
    We dont count all the runners ahead of us & feel intimidated.
    Instead we look back proudly at our journey, our personal struggle & determination & remember that there are those that never even attempt to reach the starting line.

    I'm sure it'll get sorted soon hun - try not to worry too much. The bank will redund you the money as soon as they can.

    My bank rang me on Sat to say my switch card had been cloned and had been attempted to be used in Morrocco. Have to wait 7 days for a new bank card also :) Am glad the bank are on the ball enough to realise I couldn't use my card in London's Oxford St and Morrocco, within an hour of eachother! x
