Hi,

 

I have just learned about your website from my dad. I have been crippled by bank charges from Hsbc for the last six years. In the last three months I have paid about £400. So I am going to take revenge on these money grabbers and demand it all back. I am going to send my letter today for the statements. Will Keep you posted. Wish Me Luck!!

 

:)

Thanks

Hi,

Having read all the other posts, i decided that Lloyds and capital one are on my hit list as well. Has reply from lloyds, they refunded the £75 but closed the account. Nice. But HSBC are the main ones as i guess they owe me at least £4000. Still waiting for the reply about Data Discolosure.

The Little people are fighting back!!!!!!!! :D

Thanks

Well done. Can you start a seperate thread for your capital one claim when you start it please? It would help everyone.

The law, in its majestic equality, forbids the rich as well as the poor to sleep under bridges, to beg in the streets, and to steal bread.

I have had a reply from HSBC about the data protection request, which they have agreed to send me statements to cover the last 6 years, and they wont be charging for them. Just need to wait for the whole lot to arrive and see how much i have paid. They are still charging me now. Last month i paid £160 pounds in charges. Which has left me overdrawn, and again, they will charge me next month for being overdrawn. Vicious circle.

 

Will keep you up to date as soon as i put the request for charges letter to HSBC.

 

Also can anybody let me know f they have had any luck with HSBC in the bedfordshire area?

Many thanks

 

TA TA

Hi everyone,

 

Got my statements from HSBC, and they have charged me £2621. This has only been in the last 2 years. Never had any charges previous to that. Got my statment through for this month and found they have charged me £270 pounds, and they are going to take another £125.00 on 1st of may. So i have added them on to the list.

 

The letter is being posted tonight. Going by hand. Or Do you think it would be better to be posted through royal mail? Not sure.

 

14 days for a respose, lets wait and see.

 

ta ta for now

Thanks

I think its better going in by hand and getting a recipt or something that you can use as proof that they have recieved the letter! Its quicker and more reliable than post

Hi

 

Thanks for that. I have hand posted it, and filmed it with my camera phone as proof. Which i noted on the back of the envelope.

 

When i saw how much they have charged me I got mad, so now they can face the concequences.

 

Will keep you updated with any responses.

 

Ta Ta For now.

Hi, After receiving an answer thanking me for my phonecall (That l never made) I received another letter offering me back £275.00 & not the orignal £485 and thats without the extra interest. So after reading forum notes I am now going to send which hopefully will be last letter advising them that altho I will except their offer I sahll be going to the small claims court for the balance plus the interest incurred with charges and also mention that the court will also add on interest. So wish me luck. I will keep you informed

Cheers

Hi

 

have had a letter back from HSBC, saying that they are not being unlawful, its all in the terms and conditions. They advise me to contact the Financial Ombusman, as this is there final respose to the matter.

 

Well, Off to court we go. I am sending the second letter about court action, and we shall take it from there. £2621 is alot of money, which they are happy to take, even when i am skint!!!!

 

I shall try to scan a copy of the letter from your records. Will let you know what respose i get to the second letter.

 

Ta Ta for now

Thanks

Ive been trying for months now to help my partner out of dept caused by Lloyd's tsb, a few months ago he went £10 over drawn and because he was on benefits at the time he could not pay it then the interest came on all together it rounded up to £350, we managed to pay that off in one lump sum then a few days latter he had about £200 charges back on his account, now 2 months later the bank have taken a further £200 leaving him £400 in debt.

reading some of your posts have helped me a bit, i have an appointment at the local citizens advice to try and sort out this mess, but any thing you could tell me would be helpful and well appreciated. i don't even no what the first step is :(

I would check with the C A B first because i am sure that they cannot take your benefit money. then 1 would start the process of court proceedings. Dont be frightened of them.

I have had HSBC trying to be A** Holes because of my letters, they are returning direct debits as much as they can. And charging me £30 per time. Final letter is going into the bank today. I will take them to court because they have made my life hell.

 

PAY BACK IS A B*TCH

Thanks

Hello,

 

I am now 7 days from filing with the court. Ever since I sent the first letter HSBC have come down on me like a ton of bricks. They keep returning stuff and charging me out od Badness. One direct debit they returned 15 mins before money was paid in. Now they are sending me letters saying that If i was in financial difficulty i should have rang them. WHICH I DID!!!!!!!! when it all first started. The are now saying that if i dont sort everything out they are going to close the account. Is this just their way of getting back at me for threatening court? Also the amount on the letters doesnt include what they have charged me this week, can I claim for this? or should I just say to them, I will pay you what is owed on the overdraft less the bank charges? I have opened another account with Barclays, and i am not paying any more money into HSBC. What can I do?

 

Please help.

 

Ta Much

Thanks

Hi

 

Can someone help me? I am about to file for court but i was wondering about how the settlements are paid. I have just opened a new account with Barclays bank and do not want the money to be paid into my HSBC account. Can i ask them to send me a cheque made payable to me, or does it have to go into the bank?

 

Help!?

 

Many thanks

Thanks

Well we are not in complete agreement on this.

 

Some people have been paid by Cheque, some by wire into their accounts.

 

If you owe money, then they may choose to write off the debt with the money, but you could argue that it is up to you how it is spent.

 

I believe that as long as the bank pay the debt you cannot take them to court, and it doesn't matter how they have paid, as long as they have!

 

You can ask once they offer to pay you back.

 

Check out some other peoples HSBC threads that might help?
