Hi - again

[blueskies]

Hi all,

I am back to pursue a couple of cases for my partner now and, having not been active on this site for a few years, I am a bit rusty as to the procedure (I'm guessing things have changed in this time)

 

Can someone point me in the general direction of the procedure for reclaiming bank charges please. The Wiki hasn't been updated for a long time and I'm not sure how current it is.

P.S. Hi to all my old friends on here. When I am up to speed I will return to helping out where I can.

Hello blueskies

 

Welcome back

 

The bank forums are here

 

http://www.consumeractiongroup.co.uk/forum/forumdisplay.php?3-Bank-and-Finance-Subforums

 

Just choose the appropriate bank and off you go

 

Just a heads up....current account/overdraft charges will will be pretty much a non starter unless you put in a hardship claim or use BCOBS...start research on BCOBS here

Hmm, bank charges.. you really are a bit behind the times..

 

The OFT lost their case agains the banks in 2009 and bank charge reclaims are pretty much dead in the water.

 

You can claim PPI if mis sold and credit card charges.. You could also have a read of the BCOBs articles in my signature - highlighted in green.. to see if that will be of any help.

 

Please start a new thread in the correct forum if you are going to require any assistance

Thanks, can anyone give me a link to the OFT case please?

Someone needs to remove the details from the wiki also.
