New overdraft query

[dorisbiglugs]

Hi again! Have retreived some old overdraft statements, which clearly show charges from bank at an average of £50 per month. As stated before, this is joint account and my hubby has trust deed, so debt collectors are trying me for the whole lot. Is there anything I can do about the charges that have been included in this amount? Please note, no offers have been made to debt company at this date, in fact due to circumstances a LILA bankruptcy is looking very appealing at the moment! Many thanks:smile:

Make sure you have all the statements over a five year period, This can be obtained by means of Subject Access Request (Copy Attached, maximum fee to bank £10.00) Inform DCA in writing that you intend to lodge a counter claim. (don't take any crap from them). Once you have the info collate all charges and add 8% statutory interest.
