    Red face *****help with calculating charges please!*****

    hi there,
    i have recieved my s a r from barclaycard, and have highlighted my charges, but would appreciate if someone would advise me if i have done this correctly please!

    for instance this statement for 20th jan 2005

    20 jan late payment charge, 20 jan £24.00
    20 jan exceeded limit, 20 jan £24.00
    20 jan interesticon on your standard balance £26.93

    i added the late payment and the exceeded limit charges.

    in total, my
    exceeded limit charges for £24 = 15 times
    late payment charges for £24 = 10 times

    ----------------------------------------------
    exceeded limit charges for £12 = 6 times
    late payment charges for £12 = 3 times

    -------------------------------------------------
    should i then add these, and add the interest, and then send off to Barclaysicon?
    --------------------------------------------------
    also, at the end of the statements it says

    chrgoff purch fees 29th march 2007 336.00
    chgoff prch unpd fin ch 29 march 450.74
    chrgoff prch prin balm 29 march 1425.72

    do you know what these mean please?

    thankyou in advance, and sorry to go on !!

    Hi Redroo and welcome to the Barclaysicon forums.

    We have a dedicated BC forum so I'll move your thread there.

    Are you using the spreadsheet from here - http://www.consumeractiongroup.co.uk...eadsheets.html. You need to select Credit Card, Simple or Advanced versions.

    You could claim back interesticon to reflect the high amounts you've paid BC over the years. Read here - http://www.consumeractiongroup.co.uk...-tutorial.html

    Have you read the Reclaiming Charges Guide at Link No1 in my signatureicon below.

    Shout if you need help.

    hi there,
    try as i might, i just cannot get my brain around the charges( i'm sure i definately have one - somewhere!!)
    i think i have to do the following:

    date item charges interesticon

    20/05 /'04 late pay fee 24.00 int:
    20/05/'04 3xceeded limit fee 24.00 int:


    so do i go along all of my charges and add them up seperately, and then add up the interest seperately?
    as in the sample letter it has a seperate bit for charges, and then one where you put the interest!!

    sorry , but want to get it right, and have read and re-read, but still can't grasp it!!
    thankyou in advance. xx

    Hi Red,

    Which spreadsheet are you using.

    The Reclaim letter refers to charges and interesticon separately in case you are claiming interest as shown by the Advanced spreadsheet.

    If you are just using the Simple spreadsheet, ignore the reference in the letter to interest. You will simply claim s69, or Statutory, Interest if/when you file your claim at court.

    This is the Simple spreadsheet - http://www.consumeractiongroup.co.uk...eadsheets.html The interesticon is automatically calculated by the spready and auto-updates each time you open it.

    Have you read the Guide to Reclaiming yet, at Link No1 in my signatureicon below.
