  1. I spoke to a lady in my local benefits office and she was shocked when i told her that since the 9th of january this year i have been charge £232 in charges i got £90 taking off without any notice on the 9th for something which happened in december and because off this i was unable to pay for some bills which were ment to get paid by direct debit then on the 12th i got a charge of £38 then on the 17th i got another charge of £38 then on the 18th another charge of £38 then another £38 on the 22nd i have been left with nothing and all this has been taking off my benefits, instead of getting my benefits paid into my account im going to get a giro until i get another account sorted, i want to phone my bank about these charges but i know i will just end up i tears.

  3. Hi everyone though i would give an update, well i posted off the letter i stated a few posts back along with the statements by recorded delivery and i was shocked to get such a quick response i recieved a letter this morning from a sandy watt saying thank you for your enquiry dated 18 january 2007 regarding charges applied to your account, we are currently considering your claim and will respond to you as soon as possible. I will give an update when i next hear from them jackie x
  4. I to have been getting all my benefits money taken by the bank on bank charges, i received all my statements yesterdays and i have over a thousand pound in bank charges and the only money that gets paid into my account is income support,child tax credit,child benefit and housing allowance and the statements clearly show this its unbelievable i have been left struggeling and having to borrow of freinds and family just so i can feed my family and pay the bills, i really hope my claim in getting it all back is successful because the money would help us out so much just now
  5. Hi everyone, well i recieved all my statements this morning in a big brown envelope and have checked through them all and highlighted all my charges and counted up and it come to a total of £1280 and thats not including what i have been charged in the last month i was able to check on my online banking for this and its another £208 i found this template letter and was wandering if it may be a good one to send away with my statements? [YOUR NAME]
  6. Sorry i tell a lie ive just looked at my statement and its a route 21 current account!!! and i have a copy of one of the £10 charge letters it says service charge for 21 november to 21 december 2006 the service charge will be deducted on the 7 of january 2007 this charged is based on a maintanenace charge of £10. charges will be deducted automatically. i get this nearly every month i thought everyone got it.
  7. I have just got another charge for £38 today and i can't belive it thats over £100 in one bloody week i am fuming i don't know what im going to do now, i phoned my local branch yesterday about the £60 charge and he said he has to speak to someone else as they can only refund up to £50 and no one has got back to me.
  8. Hi there yes i have been getting this for months now i recieve a statment like letter saying i will be charged a £10 service charge on some date in the next month i thought this was something everyone got because i don't have a clue what this is for!!!!!!
  9. Have handed the above letter in i explained breifly what it was about and the lady said it would be passed onto her manager who wasnt there at the time, plus i went to hand in my s a r and she said i could get this free of charge she said she would get that sorted out for me and i would recieve my statements within 10 days!!! i told her i wanted statements going back 6 years and she said that wasnt a problem, i thought i would have had to pay something.
  10. Checked my online banking this morning and i have just been charged another £60:( which was for my gas bill my bank has now went over drawn as the bill has tried to come off aswell, i have just got off the phone to my local branch to find out what this £60 charge is for and he went away to check came back and said it was for something which happened early december so once again i wont recieve my income support on monday as the bank will probably take it in more charges for my bank going over drawn because they never left me enough money to pay my bill!!
  11. Another thing is all the charges that they have been taking is coming off my benefits such as income support, child tax credit, child benefit etc i dont have any other monies apart from my housing allowance paid into my account, and just by looking up my internet banking statements they are sometimes taking off £90 a month from me which is a lot of money to me.
  12. Thank you it's so good to know that i have lots of support, i will get the letter sorted now and posted out and i will keep everything updated on here so here goes, fingers crossed x
