Darling seizes control of RBS bonus pool | Mail Online

But the directors have been advised by their lawyers that they could have to resign if they were blocked from running the company for the benefit of all shareholders.

Government to own 84% - I missed that one.

Prague: Bread and potato dumplings everywhere!

They have a whole leg of beast with them, and drown it all in lashings of gravy. And it costs nuffink.

I love Prague.

Thanks, Noom. I thought I was going mad.

How could this ever succeed. After all it was brought by people with aspirations of greater things. It would have been far better if consumer champions from this and other sites had been involved.

I think we're on different pages.

I don't think that it is any coincidence that the OFT and the banks agreed together what would be litigated.

Wow - I'm not on my own after all.

Waking up throughout the night due to severe pain in leg

Did you not get a party prescription? Try 50mg of Tramadol and 500mg Co-Codomol...been there. 4 years on I'm having the titanium screws out in January.

Surely they gave you something decent?

Looks like the Bank forums are going to busy again - normal service resumed.

Would people who just used the penalty argument in the PoC's be advised to ammend via N244?

Is there a limit to how many people can bring a class action? How would it be arranged? Doable?

having just watched Moron Brown take on the ruling he seems to be on the consumers side, he mentions the FSA bill in the house of lords now and talks of class action against banks involving groups of customers taking banks to court, my first reaction is when this bill comes about why don't CAG have a class action against the banks?

I thought the same. Cash would be the issue I think.

Donation time...and I'm up for that if they did!

Email sent and verified. FWIW

I'll likely go to prison for it - they are a bunch of agenda-ridden useless mutes.

Emigration anyone?

Wherever...just feed us!

Yeah...go on!

Wow, It all looks great!!

Discussed getting one with flatmate, but we want our toy first (truecall)

Dinner at KT's and Bookies everyone!

I just wanted to thank you from the bottom of my heart.

 

Bankers are the most virulent strain of evil known to man, and you are to be commended in demonstrating the feelings of a nation, not that they'll take any notice whilst sipping their Cristal complete with stray wavering little finger.

 

I, however, will be toasting your ad over a pint of frosty Strongbow this weekend.

 

Regards

Sent.

Oh sweet joy.

Was that wbanker giving the finger?!!

I will now drink Strongbow in gratitude....first advert ever to achieve its goal.

Jaysus, that was quick. I actually sent the SAR on the 12th, and they had it done by the 16th.

I've not really ingested much of this, but I'm posting up the relevant bits in the hope I get some feedback.

I don't suppose they should give a total figure here? PPI + car finance? Admin fee of £150 for what? half an hours staff time? This means sawd all to me anyway, but would like it if someone that understands these things can see any irregularities. Is that interest on PPI?

The dates don't match?

First sight of the actual balance that I never saw then. I don't understand all the changing figures...though I did miss a couple of months, I think, and double up.

I didn't think the settlement figure was so high, glad it was more than the car was worth when I bought it.

Empty proposal form for something I was paying for that I never wanted. Signed on page one though.

Any suggestions welcomed - anything, good or bad - beg beg, I'd love to screw 'em.

There was loads more thoughts I was going to add, but my peanut is addled. Only took 6 hours to work out how scan with a broken scan button, convert from tif to jpeg and all that goes with a PC that is crawling.

I've edited some bits out, though it's obvious who I am to them!

I do think there will be negotiated settlement here. My prediction;

1. OFT win this part of the test case.

2. "Fair" level of fee is fudged by the banks and OFT at £5

3. Automatic refunds issued for the original charge less £5

I'm so befuddled with all this now, I loathe being dippy! Just to ask (If not already mentioned - I only skim read) If the fee was any less than £12, then the OFT would have to change the CC threshold for intervention as well (headache for OFT - that they will have thought about in advance?)

As the Banks are already floating around new much lower fees in various guises, they CC fee would have to follow right? What am I missing? Surely peoples 'errant ways' with current accounts etc is no different in terms of their well appreciated slap, penalty service?

LOL.

Hope there is no hole in it.

Bank = big business = filthy liars.

You should know...they took a dump on you.

Alright...I'm in a stinking mood.

And Liebours love of the filth?

Who wants to talk about big business and their filthy ways?

Call me a sceptic, but the news will not be good when the good-for-nothings hand it down. I have no Bank charges...but the poor mites that do, I feel, are going to get shat upon.

i have just rang the company thats dealing with my bank charges claim and they say the verdict has been delayed til january now!

Huh! Let CAG deal with 'em....... there is no excuse for using that 'company'!!

Primarily because of the rancid lie they just told ya!

I've got an idea for a new TV show, think I may pitch it to some TV producers... basically it's like I'm A Celebrity Get Me Out Of Here, but the twist is that the contestants are all famous.

:lol:
