  1. Hi

     

    This is the first time that i have considered reclaiming PPI. I have sucessfully claimed back Bank Charges in the past and assume that the overall process is basically the same.

     

    The Account in question was opened in 1989/90 and defaulted in 2002. The Account remained open/active until 2005 as payments were being made under an agreed payment plan. PPI was cancelled by Barclaycard in 2002.

     

    When the application was made to open the account i do not remember recieving any advice or literature regarding the PPI and it was only a simple tick of the box asking whether i wanted to take it out.

     

    The first question that comes to mind would a claim for PPI be time barred?

  2. Hi alanalana

     

    Thanks for the reply.

     

    Yes i have tried googling it. The is a lot of info about regarding PPI, but very little which specifically relates to overdraft protection. It was my hunch that it was one in the same thing.

     

    I am just about to go off to work, but will post up a more detailed version of my story tomorrow.

  3. Thanks All

     

    Edd999 - my tenancy started in 2004 so i am not covered by the deposit scheme.

     

    Mightmare4banks - she has been inconsistent in her charging. She tells me in a later email that she has charged me 8 hrs. Now if my maths are correct 8 hours @£8 p/h = £64. She has also back tracked on the replacement rug saying that she has not charged me the full replacement cost.

     

    Blitz - Initially she thought house was ok until she went into kitchen. Thats when she decided to get cleaners in. In my opinion the house was spotless. I have challenged her to provide reciepts etc but so far to no avail.

     

    I have made an offer to her, without prejudice requesting £200 back from the original deposit of £450, on the basis that i will be challenging all deductions if i am forced to go to court. At the moment i dont think she realises that i will also be claiming court costs and s.69 interest.

     

    On the point of s.69 interest do i claim it from the day deposit was paid or the date it was due to be refunded?

  4. The previous day thing does exist, unfortunately. A Paid referral fee relates to being over your agreed limit. If you were inside your limit on the dates shown on your statement then you have been charged incorrectly. You indicate that they offered to refund the charge, have they?

    Do you bank online?... what date is the dd showing on the statement. Providing its showing as the 19th and you had sufficient funds in the account by the close of play on the 19th you should not have recieved the paid referral fee. Paid Referral is basically an overlimit charge.

     

    If you can prove that simply take your statement into the branch and say "look we were inside our limit, the dates prove it"

  6. Hi Binkhus

     

    Firstly what time did you draw £10. If it was after 6.30 pm it would automatically be showing automated transactions for the next working day ie the monday, but with mondays date.

     

    The charge you recieved was it for return of DD or overlimit charge. If it was overlimit charge you would have had until 6.30pm on the monday to get funds into the account. If it was an unpaid item charge, Barclays T&C's clearly state that funds have to be available the previous working day.

  7. Hi guys and gals.

  8. Hi All

     

    Im new in this forum (usually lurking in the Barclays Bank Forum) but think i have got my head around this one.

     

    I took a tenanancy in 2004 paying a deposit of £350. The tenancy finished 2nd October 2007. It was initially a 6 months tenancy but rolled month by month by default after this period.

     

    I have today recieved notification from my LL that the following deductions were being made from the deposit.

     

    1. Cleaner @ £8 ph = £144

    2. Gardener @£8 ph = £144

    3. Replacement Rug And Bathroom flooring = £55

    4. Replacement Shed Padlock = £7

     

    TOTAL £350

     

    OK. I realise that by default the LL would send in a cleaner and £144 doesn't seem too excessive looking at what others are saying. But the gardening fee. Im not sure that i am responsible for that. Also i thought that a level of depriciation would be applied to the Rug. Any thought please would be greatly appriciated.
