Thread: Barclaycard Reduced Credit Limit!

When my wife got a statement from her branch of Barclays Bank in Kettering, there was a debit of £30.00 for 'COMMISSION'.

When I checked the statement, I noticed that one day before her monthly wages were paid in, her overdraft had gone over the limit by £7.00.
No letter has been received notifying my wife of this over limit, nor had she received any notification about any 'COMMISSION'.

It certainly looks like Barclays have changed the name of their over limit fees/charges to 'COMMISSION' in the hope that no-one will notice!

As my wife did not enter into any contract with Barclays to pay 'COMMISSION', I am sure that they are acting unlawfully.

Has anyone else been charged 'COMMISSION' on their statements?

Having previously gone head to head with Barclays and forced them to repay charges which they unlawfully applied, I warned the manager, Jayne Edwards, at Barclays Kettering branch that I would not tolerate any further unlawful charges of any kind for any reason, I shall now give her the opportunity to repay this immediately or receive a summons!

I am absolutely sick and fed up with being ripped off by these banks and other organizations who wrongly believe they have the right to flout and break the law in order to maximize their already obscenely high profits!

Hi

Commission is just another word for unpaid refferal, it seems that this is the new word they are using.

I had one applied yeterday for going overdrawn for 1 day by £9.

(edit)

After I successfully recovered 3 excess charges from these B******s for my wife, following two letters of complaint, they increased her APR from 24.9% to 25.9%, and she received a letter saying that they had reduced her credit limit from £440 to £400 because they did not like the way she handled her account. and then, a few weeks later, after a payment was made to clear the full balance of £380.00, she received a letter saying that they were reducing her credit limit to £260.00 following a 'review'

My wife had always paid at least 3 or 4 times the minmum amount each month, so we presume that this is the only way they think they can get even!

similar happened to us and we have not claimed anything off them.

Hi

Bstdscard are not alone in this. Same thing in the post this morning from Nstytwest! Down from 5k to 3k!

Not that I care as stopped spending on it ages ago and am intending to pay off full amount and then cut the card up.

Just goes to show what a puerile bunch they are.
