Written by John Kruse, one of the leading experts on Bailiff Law, this consumer friendly guide is essential reading for anyone who comes into contact with a bailiff.
The book is easy to understand and clearly explains the rights
a bailiff has, and also what they cannot do when collecting debts and repossessing goods etc.
I cleared my RBS credit card balance in 2004 and was so relieved to get it out of the way i shredded everything so have no account number etc. I have written to the data protection address and they said they needed sort code and account. I found an old experian credit report with this credit card on but it gives a 10 digit account number which they didnt recognise !??
Im totally stumped, any ideas as to how/where i can get my card number/account from ? Ive phoned them but they said it is deleted form their system, conveniently.
hi reddannio i am in the same situation.no account number and they dont want to know.but i think your acc number is only 8 digits long.and i think by law they must hold on to your details.surelly they cant get away with just deleting your account
I think your name and the address when you had the account and your new address would be enough. The data protection act refers to you, your name and address not necessarily an account number. In any event I'm sure they can search their data base on several parameters not just the account number. THEY ARE MOST LIKLEY STALLING. If the formal SAR still doesn't work threaten to report them and then report them if necessary.

You were indeed correct Douglas, wrote a formal SAR with just name and address and they eventually sent me a list of cherges for the account i had lost the details of.
Ive now sent off prelim, only £140 and didnt think i could claim contractual interest as all charges were for Jun-Sept 2004 and i paid the card off in Oct 2004. Also, i cant remember the rate of interest i paid.
Yes the prelim prompted an offer of £60 from RBS so getting my Rejection letter ready. Should i send this together with my lba ? Also, i didnt include any interest in my prelim letter, is this the time to include it, am a bit confused as to what i can claim in way of interest as i paid off the card in 2004 and the charges were from the same year Any ideas ?
Charge interest- they do and you are entitled to it!! I got my son's paid on a second smaller amount but I didn't force it on his first larger amount - wish I had now but I wasn't so confident as I am now. You may have to go all the way to the doors of the court though.

Right, after their paltry final offer of £60 im filing my N1 at court. Only £140 plus 8% but will get a strange sense of enjoyment from watching them squirm when court papers arrive.
Can someone point me in the direction of the latest N1 POCs for RBS Credit card please.
Hello red,
I can only suggest the stickies for POC I also see you have thread to reclaim PPI.
Watch RBS are playing hardball here, many delaying tactics!
They are using multitude of addresses for HQ, Data Protection and Retail Regulatory Risk. I have so far had missing recorded delivery mail to the Complaints department at the HQ Address 36 St Andrews Square and now a letter to the Retail Regulatory Risk department. They may be refusing to sign for recorded delivery letters which means your letters will end up being opened to find a return address if you did not put one on the envelope. Just be aware. Could this information be more widely advertised by a mod please?
