Done
got £2500 off lloyds last year
Thinking of doing same to Halifax, P****d off with them charging £39 per returned DD, Robbing B*****ds

[john joe]

what about credit cards? i've got about £300 in charges that i would like back, or have they knocked all that on the head now?

[David Swann]

I think you can, but as I say, all of these cases are on hold due to this court case, so once the desicion is made everyone may recieve their charges back or we will end up paying less, which at least is a start.

Go to 'consumeractiongroup.co.uk' for the latest info, credit cards charges can be claimed for aswell,
The banks are trying to fob everyone off with saying all case's are on hold but the truth is that they can only apply to a court for a stay (which doe'snt mean they automatically have got one or will get one) and the courts are treating each case individually, as my second claim has a court case in september and the court says its business as usual with them so no stay/hold at the moment...............:D

When I sold a business a few years ago we employed a forensic accountant to do all the profit and loss etc and when he went thro the books he found literally thousands in overcharges and wrong fees etc, proper robbing twats

It was a sweet moment getting the money back ;)

[speedball]

as the big 4 banks recently went to court together to stop people claiming there money back, and there won't be a judgement made till next year, people will still be geeting charged

all that will happen is that free banking will go, so you will get monthly charhes anyway

[DianeB]

if you're case has been stayed, you can fill in an n244 form to object to the stay.
