    Question BOS Charges (Maintenance)?

    Hi, Just recieved my list of charges from my Wife's BOSicon bank account and there are monthly charges of £15 listed as account maintenance charge 2000-04. Could anyone please let me know what this is and if this is a charge that I can claim back. Sorry if this is a dumb question but I have never came accross this charge before.

    I have been wondering the same thing, also becuase I have a Royalties Gold account which has an agreed monthly charge (currently £12), but then I also have a maintenance charge of £28.00 on top!

    The only times i have ever had 'Account Maintenance' on my statements is at the end of the following month after i have been overdrawn. I am never charged it any other time. Therefore i figure it is a charge for them having to 'fix' your account and put it right following you being overdrawn. I am certainly asking for it back. Although as i said - i have only ever been charged it following being overdrawn. So it obviously relates to me being overdrawn and the charges for that. You may not be able reclaim a charge that is applied to your account monthly regardless of whether you are overdrawn or not. I would certainly query with the bank what it is for? If they can't give an adequate explanation - claim it back

    Thanks, I'll check over the history of the charges to see if they are only charged when the account was overdrawn.
    Just checked statements and the account was always in overdrafticon before the Account Maintenance was applied. I will add this to the charges that I am claiming back and see what happens. Thanks for your help.
