Stax, why can't I copy and paste from this thread? Any ideas?

 

No, you should be able to right-click on the images to copy or save them (in Windows Internet Explorer anyway). You can't highlight and copy text, though, as they are images. That's the only thing I can think of.

 

BTW - have you got the 1996 T&Cs in image or pdf form (rather than text)? If so could you send them to me or post them here? If you PM me I'll give you an email address.

 

cheers, Stax

Sorry stax, I only have the 96 in text form. Jowalshy sent them me in a pm.

I realise now that i can't copy them as they are images from photobucket. I will try and email them to myself and see if I can reproduce them in order to print them out.

While I'm here, which parts of the 96 t&c's would be most relevant to my claim? I just want to add the important bits rather than the whole document.

Thanks in advance if you can help!

If you can email them, surely you can save or copy them?

 

Images are better than text for evidence purposes - they look a

lot better in court than a big slab of text which could have come

from anywhere. On that topic I now have the 96 T&Cs in glorious

technicolor, to follow.

 

Text obviously has its uses though, notably cutting and pasting

bits, as you have found. Thanks for your contribution of the

1996-vintage text. I've PMed you about it.

 

In answer to your q about the useful bits from the 1996 T&Cs:

 

--------------------------------------------------------------

THE CORE BITS (TALK ABOUT BANG TO RIGHTS!)---------------

 

7.2 You must always keep your current account in credit unless

we have agreed an overdraft with you.

 

7.3 You must not go over any overdraft limit that is agreed with

us unless you get our agreement first.

 

7.9 As well as charging interest for unauthorised overdrafts, we

may also charge a fee to cover the cost of the administration

involved (see the relevant price list).

-----------------------------------------------------------

EXPLANATION OF THE CORE BITS:

7.2 & 7.3 mean that you are in breach of contract if you go

over your OD limit. This is a necessary condition of the charges

being penalties.

7.9 makes it clear that the charges are levied in response to

that breach, and not on some other basis. It also says that the

charges are to cover costs - this is the bit we need to disprove

to confirm that the charges are penalties - hence the OFT stuff.

The fact that the bank makes this claim means that we have a

very good basis for saying they concealed the fact that they

weren't just covering costs but instead making a profit - which is

useful if you want to claim charges levied more than 6 years ago.

---------------------------------------------------------------

 

A BIT WHICH SHOWS THEIR NEW STORY ABOUT INFORMAL

OVERDRAFT REQUESTS ISN'T JUST A CLARIFICATION OF

EXISTING PRACTICE----------------------------------------

 

7.7 If we pay a cheque or other item you issue and, as a result,

your account goes overdrawn or goes over your agreed

overdraft limit, this does not mean that we have agreed an

overdraft or an increased limit. You must immediately pay

enough money into your account to cover the overdrawn

amount or the amount that is over your agreed limit.

-----------------------------------------------------------

 

 

A BIT WHICH COULD BE PERSUASIVE IN CONNECTION WITH

CLAIMING BACK OD INTEREST (THOUGH LATER VERSIONS OF

THE T&CS ARE LESS SPECIFIC ON THIS AND THEREFORE

MORE USEFUL)-----------

 

9.3 Liability for unauthorised transactions

9.3.1 Our liability

We will be responsible for any money lost if:

. your card is lost in despatch from us to you

. there is a fault on a self-service machine of which you have

not been notified by a message on the screen or a notice on

the machine.

Unless we can show that you have acted fraudulently or with

gross negligence, we will also be responsible for any money

lost if your card is used without your authority after you have

reported to us that it has been lost or stolen or that you

suspect that your PIN is known by someone else. We will

credit your account with any amount debited under the above

circumstances including any related interest and charges. We

will have no further liability to you.

Hello all,

 

glad they are of use. I don't want to tread on anyone's toes so I should add I will send these as pdfs as soon as CAG provides somewhere for them to be downloaded from. In fact I've already sent/offered to send most of them already, but obviously there is quite a bit on what with the strange antics of various district judges recently, so in the m,eantime I am providing the stuff on this thread as a stopgap.

 

If anyone knows of a site which can hosts pdfs for free, I'll put them there. In the meantime it's just images, though the full T&Cs for 2003 and 2004 are available as pdfs here: http://www.consumeractiongroup.co.uk/forum/hsbc-bank/90721-i-need-your-help.html#post840881 though I don't know for how long theye will stay there.

 

Also, if anyone else has any T&Cs they've scanned feel free to add them.

If you're not sure how, PM me.

 

COPYING, SAVING OR PRINTING THE IMAGES:

It should be possible to save or print the images by clicking on them with the right-hand mouse button and selecting 'Save picture as...' or 'Print picture' from the pop-up menu. That's how you do it in Windows anyway, but Mac OS is probably pretty similar I expect. (Just ignore that last sentence if you don't know what it means.)

 

If you can't be bothered to right-click and save each image file, you could look in your temporary internet files (For Microsoft Internet Explorer, that's something like Tools..Internet Options..Temporary Internet Files..View Files - the details depend on your IE version) after you have viewed the page(s) with the images you want on them, and you will probably find all the image files cached in there. (Again ignore this if you don't know what I'm on about.)

 

Anyway I hope that answers most questions and doesn't cause more confusion than it removes. For my next trick: the complete 1996 T&Cs, in full colour (red and black, very appropriate.)

 

Stax
