Does anyone know if the current case regarding bank charges also covers penalty fees by Student Loans. Eg being charged £20 by Student Loans for not replying to one of their letters.

THANKS

    I don't think it does. Someone else may come along with more information but I am sure it was just the banks. Isn't the SLC run by the government?

    It doesn't matter who it's run by the law applies to all. It doesn't directly relate but could be used as guidance I guess.

    I agree I don't think you do get fined.
