Default hello, new here, seeking help and inspiration!

hello, joined last night, read some excellent posts and just discovered how to post myself! am going after charges levied against 3 accounts in a northern ireland bank, one of which is a business account, for which i am making a separate claim. just read on the forum that some cases listed in the small claims court in northern ireland have been adjourned pending a statement/clarification [from the oft?] - does anyone know any more about this?
am sending letters before action this week, happy only to go after 6 months' worth of charges (though there are a few charges before this, the 'problem' has only arisen in the last 6 months, across all the accounts, and contrary to past custom and practice). would be grateful for any support, am off now to peruse the faqs...

Hi Onetwothree

And welcome aboard.

There is a lot of information on this site so take your time and spend a couple of days reading as much as you can.

Here are a couple of links to get you started and i suggest you always keep them to hand.

http://www.consumeractiongroup.c o.uk/forum/faqs-please-read-these/24031-frequently-asked-questions.html

http://www.consumeractiongroup.c o.uk/forum/faqs-please-read-these/31460-example-step-step-instructions.html

When you are comfortable start a thread "XXXX v Bank Name here" in the relavent bank forum as then people with specific experience of this bank can offer support and advice.

There is a lot of information to take in here so if unsure it is allways best to Ask first.

If you need a quick answer to a question you could always try the chatroom as there are usually some very helpful people in there.

Very best of luck
