As far as I know a loan is a seperate agreement to your bank account, so they are not allowed to call your loan in.
Go for it, it's your money!

| | Basic Account Customer | Re: Claim against lloyds with lloyds loan still active Absolutely. Though, tbh, it doesn't concern me quite so much that they might call in the loan altogether because, as I understand it, you can argue that this was in retaliation to your claim, and therefore unreasonable and not allowed (I think? Any opinions...?). I would be very upset though if they paid my money then straight away snapped it up for the loan, saying "thanks very much, all up-to-date now, just keep making monthly payments...blah blah blah." Even if they did that and I was able to fight to get it back, I can see it being yet another long, drawn out process.
I think I'm going to say I want payment by cheque, so I can pay it into my other a/c, then I decide how much they see of it.
How long were you on a payment plan for, if you don't mind me asking? It's just that they haven't said anything to me about re-financing the loan.

| | Basic Account Customer | Re: Claim against lloyds with lloyds loan still active this looks like the thread i need advice from.
i had loan account and current account with lloyds. they defaulted both due to changes in circumstances;they added the two debts together making one repayment; however the current account debt was all charges and interest levied against charges, they have just paid back after my claim. however obviously with them adding this onto the loan some years agao, this has increased my loan and repayment time, as well as no doubt gaining more interest. is their a way forward ??? |

| | Basic Account Customer | Re: Claim against lloyds with lloyds loan still active Hi, I'm in a similar situation, I'm considering claiming back the charges for my Lloyd's current account, but I also have a loan with them.
I was concerned that the loan had a requirement the repayments came from a Lloyd's account. I can't find a copy of the original agreement to check the terms, but I seem to remember seeing on the website somewhere, that this is the case? Has anyone heard of this before? Did I misread it, or are they being economical with the facts?
I understand that if it's a separate agreement, it cannot be closed unless it's in default, which it's not and never has been. However, if the requirement above is correct and they closed my current account in retaliation (which they can't?), then that would give them grounds to close the loan?
I have a "Platinum Plus" Account and a "LTSB Personal Loan".

| Re: Claim against lloyds with lloyds loan still active I sent the final letter off to LLoyds end of May (not got a court date) and they have just paid a standard amount into my current account, I also was on a payment plan with my credit card and loan. They have not taken the money out of my account to clear any funds but I would not keep it in there, as when the statement date comes around they could take it all. |

| Re: Claim against lloyds with lloyds loan still active Hi everyone,
Hope you don't mind me putting a wee word in here. I also had a loan with lloyds and the payment came out of my account. When I started to claim my charges back last August I refused to pay my loan because the payment came out of my account and I was £170 overdrawn ( made up of charges) as my loan payment was for £140. every penny I would have paid in would have went to the charges. I refused to pay the loan, and lloyds would not take the payment any other way.
By the time that I had won at court for my charges my original overdraft was up to £604. because they continued to go into my account twice a month for payments, which I refused to pay.
When I finally got my money which was over £2,500 they paid the money into my account that was overdrawn and therefore they got their charges back.
Because my loan was by this time about 4 months overdue, when I went to the bank on the Friday afternoon the bank did not want to pay me but unfortunately for them I had 2 decrees against them and they could not refuse. What the woman kept saying is that your loan is in arrears and I just told them that this was a completly different account and to pay me my money. I eventually got out the bank with my money at 5.15.
I think what you will find is that if you owe them money at all they will try and offset your charges against any thing you owe them.
As for asking for a cheque they just flately refused to give me one and just put the money into my account. The only way you would get round that is to close your account so they can't put the money into your account.
To Andylondon, when I was having all this bother with my account I asked if I had to pay my loan through my account, and I was told no you can pay your loan over the counter at any lloyds branch.
I hope this helps anybody in any way

| | Basic Account Customer | Re: Claim against lloyds with lloyds loan still active Hiya just found your posts.. so many..
I am reduced payments now 2 years and have experienced every underhanded move Lloyd's could pull.
Taking full contractual payments when ever they wished and some times twice a month and with the reduced payment along side them, juggling interest rates. Not holding the accounts when in dispute.
It has gone on so long I am now with a solicitor as there is a possibility there was some manual abuse on my account for an employee to gain financial bonus in the collections center.
I have 2 letters stating they will no longer remove money from my account and yet it still happens again and again.
You can cancel your direct debit for your loans but you will need to do this in branch, if they refuse, do it on Internet banking. Still pay by cheque the monthly reduced amount do not fall behind in your new agreement. Send your cheque with a letter stating your cancellation action and the dates the cheque is to cover. You do not have the option of letter covering cheque if you pay by cash over the counter.
Also if the abuse continues do not have any money paid into your account move it to a building society for the time being, when you come to highlighting the actions on your accounts all you will see is Lloyd's own and it makes life sooo much easier.
Your direct debit guarantee states you can cancel at anytime and it does not state it is different if the Direct Debit is to the person who you have the Loan with.
Lloyd's are disgusting when it comes to a crisis, expect no respite....
Kick back twice as hard, In my S.A.R - ( Subject Access Request) I found mistakes and now it seems with the help of my solicitor, including Compensation for the removal of the funds from my accounts, Both my loans will be written off or repaid with correcting balances before i am returning to work.
Lloyd's bring this action on them selves, if i had been treated with some fairness when i became ill, I would still have both loans paying reduced amounts and none the wiser to any of my rights and their mistakes.
Just remember you may be ill at this time, but that doesn't mean you don't have rights.
