Hi i was overdrawn in one of my accounts with halifax, i recieved one letter dated 10/7/2009 just informing me i was overdraw, in my other halifax account i receive mt child tax credit & child benefit, today looking on line i noticed £126.00 transfered out of my account leaving me with nothing, rang halifax who informed me they transferred to other account in debt, asked why they did not notify me they stated they sent 4 letters to which i havent ever received, im more determined now to get my bank charges & close both accounts, can i claim for the money they transferred out to, i was overdrawn because they charged me for direct debits that didnt go out

i recently changed my bank account as i was fed up with halifax refusing to give me a current account even tho ive been with them 10 years anyway changed all my direct debits to new account but still utility companies tried taking the money out of the halifax account that no longer has money going in, now been charged a number of times so my account is overdrawn by £138.46, i received a letter from halifax saying i need to pay into my account the monies owing by 24th july. i cant afford to pay that im left with £100 out my wages to live on for the whole month, what can i do can i write a letter stating they owe me money from previous charges im not paying it (have recently put in a claim for bank charges 2nd time round) what do i do i cant afford to pay that, the utility companies refuse to refund me for the bank charges they caused.
