Receipt from local branch for Prelim and copy of charges.

Lady behind the counter asked my husband if he had been reading the paper and thats why he was claiming charges back....he said he just smirked and said nothing

YB account now closed as of today, lady again said why not leave it open incase they pay you!!!! Hubby said no thanks they can pay me by cheque! LOL

Monday 16th Oct, Prelim and Copy of Charges being took to bank..

The cheeky sods owe me £419!

Statements came in todays post, shall spend all weekend going through them with a fine tooth comb....

Have another bank account all set up and working, took all my money out of YB bank, just waiting for a £40 transfer I made to show up and then YB will be closed down

Was taken in by hand and a receipt got for it....25th Sep....I hope they hurry up with those statements...I am guessing I will be checking them for hours

Is it the normal reply? Sounds like it to me.

Am I right in thinking the 40 days started on the day they gave a receipt for the SAR?

Thanks Caro

4th October £10 cheque cashed for my SAR, still waiting to hear something in the post.

If I close this bank account next week does it make any difference to the process?

Maybe try copy and paste into word and change the font colour to dark blue, sometimes I have to do this to make mine work

OK new bank account set up, sorting all the DD etc...still waiting for any reply from my SAR....wooohooo I am going to enjoy fighting against YB.....

Thank you for that, but I do think they are all going to be as bad as each other...looking through the net at all bank accounts these seems to be the lesser of all evils LOL

Thanks for the idea, but we are just in the middle of applying for a bank account with another firm, yes prolly out of the fire and into the frying pan...A & L...

But wont be doing anything until I know whats happening with that....

S.A.R - (Subject Access Request) taken into branch today with cheque. Got a receipt...

Had more hassle with them, they could not stoop any lower if they tried! They have just taken a £1500 od off us, and left us right in the ****! BUT BUT have offered us a loan to cover it ....they would then pay the CC off and close it...how bloody rude of them, the CC is all up to date being paid by DD...

Our account did not warrant having a 1500 od.....but we are good for a loan....the cheek!

Anyway the 40 days are ticking!

Thank you Ozzy, its all going in that envelope now....I have a long war against me...and I am looking forward to it LOL

Anyone? as I really want this to go to them today...its a Yorkshire Bank ch but do I just put to Yorkshire Bank?

Right ............after weeks of reading up on this forum I have just printed off the S.A.R - (Subject Access Request)....I am about to write a cheque for the £10 fee, do I address the cheque to Yorkshire Bank?

Thank you I keep reading and reading.....YB wont know whats him em LOL

Cheers shall send all letters with both names etc

Hello to you all, I have just joined and read some of the info on this site, I have also started a thread in the YB section.

I have been reading and reading and think I have read that much its too much for my head to take in LOL

I am just sorting the first letter to send for my statements

Hello to all, I am in the process of sending for my 6 years worth of statements.

The account is in joint names with my husband, do we both have to sign every letter/form we send out to our local branch?

Can I take the SAR to my local branch with the £10 fee and ask for a receipt?

But in the mean time, the other day I was overdrawn, got charged 3 days worth of £ 8 a day for being so! Just checked now and they have also charged me £25...Just rung to be told that that is what they charge and they will do nothing about it, I should run my account better! They have not lowed their charges and they will remain at £25..is this right?

A little help in understanding it all would be much appreciated...
