I received my statement today and was surprised to see that ive been charged £30 basically because ive not been paying money into my account. This is a student account with an overdraft of 1250 which i have kept within the limit by about £100. I knew that the banks did charges for unauthorised overdrafts and for unpaid d/ds but was really surprised that they stung me with a £30 charge just for not paying any money in for a few months! I phoned them up and told them that i was pretty sure this charge was illegal but was fobbed off. I told them that i would look in to it and get back to them. Anyone else been charged for not paying money in???
