Dear Sirs

ACCOUNT NUMBER:


Ref your recent offer


Thank you for your recent offer of £ ***** as a gesture of goodwill, I must inform you that I will not be accepting this offer. As outlined in my earlier correspondence I explained that the charges you have applied to my account are contrary to the Unfair Terms in Consumer Contracts Regulations 1999. Further or in the alternative, I believe that your charges are a Penalty.

Penalty charges are irrecoverable at common law. The precedent for this was Dunlop Pneumatic Tyre Co Ltd v New Garage and Motor co Ltd [1915] AC 79.along with Murray v. Leisure play [2005] EWCA Civ 963

Although in my original letter I informed you that I would start legal proceedings within 14 days, as a gesture of goodwill I will give you an extra 7 days to refund £ ***** by cheque as I no longer use this account and wish it to be closed. If this is not done within the 7 days, I will be forced to start legal proceedings, you will receive no further warnings.



Yours Sincerely
