Subject Access Request-- glasses anyone?

[Guest NATTIE]

I have to post this one and i am sorry that i have to but in the rush to get all the money back something has been lost, the ability to read properly.

On the SAR letter it states " I enclose the statutury £10 under the DPA" or words to that effect.

PLEASE REMEMBER TO SEND THE £10, increasingly i am seeing it where no cheque is enclosed. So please read it carefully because you will blame the bank if they reply stating this.

I must add a disclaimer to this because i have seen the reverse being the case so this post is not directed at you guys who have.

I think that's an importat point Nattie, that many new SAR applicants are under the assumption that because the cheque is often returned and therefore payment deemed unneccessary, they forget that not enclosing in the first place technically invalidates the entire letter request.

Good call!!

 

I have seen some posts saying don't bother with £10 as its said BoS don't charge it.

 

These are currently being put right on an individual basis and reminders issued as they arise. We also say that these £10 charges can be reclaimed.
