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.
The £35 charge levied for 'card misuse' is not in the Ts & Cs for Natwest Student accounts.
Basically, I've had lots of charges, but strangely enough, the Card Misuse ones got refunded. I thought this was a gesture of goodwill - but when I checked the original agreement, it seems that Card Misuse charges do not apply to Student accounts.
Just a bit of info in case there are any students out there who have had this charge on their statement, and it has not been refunded, check it out, as you should hopefully be able to resolve it in a phonecall?!?!

Re: Natwest Students - Card Misuse Does Not Apply!
I hadn't thought of that. Yes, you are correct that this charge does not apply to Student acounts. Would be interested to know if any NW students had got charged for that one.
