As an aside, can anyone point me to where Lloyd's specify what thy mean by the term "calendar month", is it 1st to 28/29/30/31st of the month, or one month from date of account opening and so on?
I've tried searching and can't find the answer..
From MSE's best bank article:-
LENDER WHAT COUNTS AS A MONTH?
Bank of Scotland Calendar month
Barclays Calendar month
Co-op Bank Calendar month
First Direct Calendar month
Halifax Calendar month
Lloyds Calendar month
M&S Bank Calendar month
Nationwide Calendar month
NatWest/RBS Calendar month
Santander Statement month
Tesco Bank Statement month
TSB Calendar month

Sorry Keiran that doesn't help at all. There are two possible interpretations of Calendar Month hence my question which you haven't answered.0 -
Calendar month is the whole month of that month i.e. 1st to 30th November etc. Only Santander and Tesco is statement month so monthly from account opening as Keiran stated.
The easiest way I suppose to know is if the interest is always paid on the same date regardless of when account is opened i.e. 1st/2nd monthly then it's calendar month and statement month interest is paid on the same date monthly that the account is opened.0 -

I always used to think that, but...

Hmm, so I received the letter a week and a half ago, like everyone else, and seeing this thread ignored it. Then today Lloyd's have hit me with a £3 fee :mad:
What's the best way to get in touch?0 -

NedS: I suggest you see what happens tomorrow before thinking of contacting Lloyds. They always take the fee, but then refund it if you meet the criteria. (That is, fee and refund both appear on the statement, usually with the same date.) You may well get up tomorrow to find the fee has been refunded.
I've just had a look at my accounts and fees have been charged today, but I have every confidence that these will be refunded automatically, as happens each month.0
