Question I'm in a right old pickle??

I have 2 accounts with the abbey (both vastly in overdraft due to charged)

I sent off the Data Protection Act request 48 days ago and recieved the classic 13 mths statements and the microfich arguement with the promise of this info in the future? I wait........


The problem i have is that over the years the problems that i've had with abbey have been dealt with paying the overdrafts back to them @ £10 weekly until the account was cleared but whilst this was happening on no.1 account they raised my overdraft in no.2 account to £850 then after losing my job at christmas and dealing with christmas and trying to find another noticing that my wages were no longer going in dropped my agreed overdraft to £500 thus crippling me and the charges then started again. Now in July the balance is well over £1000 and they are having a field day with me on a monthly basis.....

Tommorrow i will send them a Section 7 – Data Protection Act 1998 letter and hope that i get a bit closer to getting somewhere, if anyone has any further advice on this matter please send it to me as i feel like im going mad.

Default Re: I'm in a right old pickle??

send them the letter tomorrow ( or take it into the branch) i think you can do this ( you can with Subject Access Request - (Subject Access Request) )


then send the letter requesting all charges over the 6 year period be refunded to you within 14 days or you will be going to court

then if they have not sent you the info or refunded ( which they wont have ) go straight for the jugular. get the court forms put in. do not hesitate......

infact get all your paper work ready in the next few days as you will not get the information you have requested.

on the court sheet it asks how much you are claiming put on it..... unspecified amount not exeeding £5000.00

and the claimant claims interest at 8%

good luck lisaxx
