How lmuch of a loyal worker are you?

[JOSH_IOU]

Did you know.

 

 

Did you know when you work for the bank you are expected to act within the law.

 

It says so in your contract right.

 

Have any of you got a contract from your place of work ie a bank financial institution that you could share with us?

 

It would be great to see what bank contracts are like.

Have you read The Theft Amendment Act? This states that anyone involved in taking goods or money without the intention of returning such to the owner is guilty of theft! This should include the person writing the letter up to the chief exective?

 

Am I Right? Any Barristers reading this??

[anon1]

Does the theft act include bank workers assisting with it by following bank orders? If so, i need to hand myself in with my work colleagues.

[indebtstudent]

I'm going to raise this ASAP!

[MARTIN3030]

The theft act 1968 and subsequent ammendments has no implications directly or indirectly to bank charge reclaims.

This isnt the first or last time the question will be raised but I am happy to put the record straight here.

Hope this will now end any further doubts or speculation.

 

We already have in place a good defence and statutes in law as a means to reclaim these charges using legitimate POCs

The theft act is not part of that and will remain so.

Would this have anything top do with the banks lining the governments pockets?

[JOSH_IOU]

If the judge rules the money should be returned then one may have a case.

You mean the bank taking out money and lining the governments pockets?

Do you have one single case where a judge has declared bank charges to be a criminal, instead of civil, case?

 

Maybe if you do you might have a point.

 

Until then you are merely barking up the same tree as those morons who call themselves 9/11 truthers (ie. everything is a conspiracy).

Friends, wht u think, The theft act 1968 is applicable on bank.

I'm bit confused. Suggest ASAP.

[kennythecelt]

Hi there finance seeker.

 

for clarification, it is not relevant.

 

However much we might all wish it to be it is not. As a previous post enquired- is there a succesful case on that basis- No!

 

Bank charges/ panalty charges are however unlawful and that is the basis of the argument and the reason that banks have paid out such a staggering sum so far. Keep going however, you can get the charges back. :)

[JOSH_IOU]

Since this is my thread I belive I can renew this disscussion

Specimen transaction

 

Date of Transaction Company Amount Type

19/06/2005 The Uk Firm £10 Payment Authorised

19/07/2005 The Uk Firm £10 Returned Transaction

24/11/2005 The Uk Firm £35 Authorised Charge

 

 

 

Is this Transaction Authroised?

Direct from wiki

 

Section 6 "with the intent to permanently deprive the other of it" is sufficiently flexible to include situations where the property is later returned. For example, suppose that B, a keen football fan, has bought a ticket for the next home match. T takes the ticket, watches the match and then returns the ticket to B. In this instance, all that T returns is a piece of paper. Its value as a licence to enter the stadium on a particular day has been permanently lost. Hence, T steals the ticket. Similarly, if T takes a valuable antique but later repents and returns the goods, T has committed the actus reus with the mens rea. The fact that T's conscience forces a change of mind is relevant only for sentencing.

Josh,

 

Have you a single court case which has made this a criminal issue?

 

Until then, unfortunately, you are barking up the wrong tree.

I used to work for Barclays. If I find a contract I'll let you see a copy.

 

Mailman, don't be so defeatist. A few years ago no one had got a bank charge back.

 

I regard this whole industry as a criminal cartel. Good luck Josh IOU.
