    Hi there,

    Not sure if anyone can help with this one. My father died 2yrs ago, and I have only just got around to going through old bank statements. It seems that he was being charged £35 each time he went into an unauthorised overdraft. In one week, he was charged x4 £35, as he was withdrawing small amounts, such as £10 or £20 a time without realising. It looks like he assumed he was able to withdraw cash, as the cashpoint allowed him to do so! He did have some alcohol related mental health issues, although he was due for an assessment 1mth after his death. Am I able to claim back any of those charges? many thanks

    No, the banks won the court case in 2009 on unfair charges, they only consider current financial hardship cases, not old ones
