Thread: Letter before Action-RBS

I have sent letter date 15 May to RBS regarding 6 years of bank charges as suggested in the first stage to reclaiming bank charges. The letter was sent to Customer Relations Manager, Freepost PO Box 1727, Edinburgh EH12 9JN. Reply 1 June - They duly responded with - saying that the bank charges are fair, resonable and transparent. We consider that the amounts debited to your accound have been applied strictly in accordance wih your agreement with us and our published tariff, which we are satisfied, complies with all applicable laws and regulations. We are also committed to ensuring the transparency of the information that we give to our customers about the operation of our products.

The OFT is presently in contat with us and with seven other major credit card companies to discuss the level of charges on credit cards. It is importat that I emphasise theese discussions are limited to charges on credit cards only. We have considered the detailed statement made on 5 April by the OfT on credit card aministration charges and we have responded to the OfT by the deadline date of 31 May.

Consequently, against that background, we must differ with the views expressed in your letter and will not be refunding any of the charges applied to your bank account.

Again thank you for taking the time and trouble to write.

Since the programme televised last week by Trevor McDonald Tonight would I need to either redirect my letter to another contact within RBS or do I give up at this stage. Has any one else tried to reclaim bank charges from RBS; (over six years mine total upwards of £2000). Can any one suggest a way forward.

Many thanks
