Hi Everyone,

 

Sent my prelim yesterday to my mates at the Halifax.

 

By the way, has anyone gave the banks 7 days instead of the 14 in the Prelim and LBA?

 

It just seems to me that the banks will not pay up until court action is filed so does it really matter if we give them 7 days or 14?

 

Thanks in advance.

 

 

 

Andrew

We say 14 days so if it went to court the Judge would see that you were being reasonable

Called the halifax today to see if they had any intentions of refunding me - answer was, "we dont refund anybody"!

 

I hope someone reads this from the Halifax, cos I gave you the chance to refund me, now you will have to pay me my charges, interest and court fees. Then I will write to my local paper, and then help all in my community to reclaim their charges too!

 

I cant wait!!

Ladies & Gentlemen

 

I had a phone call from the Halifax today informing me that a full refund was on its way (including interest and court fees).

 

In view of todays press, I have contacted the Warrington Guardian. They are keen to speak to me with a view of including the article in next weeks paper. I will be recommending this site to everyone and offering to help anyone that wishes to recoup their bank charges.

 

I have currently won against the Halifax (£2200) and Birmingham Midshires (£770) but still await the cheques. I also had a letter from Nat West today offering me a full refund (£147) which I have accepted and will be credited to my account tomorrow.

Just to let everyone know that I will be making my 5% donation to a charity of my choice rather than donate to this site.

 

Good Luck to you all.

There are a few hundred people at anyone time going through various stages of reclaiming their unlawful bank charges, we try and look at all the threads, unfortunately we cant see to everyone on a daily basis we all have our own lives to lead as well , and we do do this voluntarily, If you havent posted a question then we do not always reply, but I am glad you are procceding along with your claim and good luck to your awaiting your money.

This is a self-help forum and the idea is to empower people, not to spoon-feed them. Besides, I've just read through your thread and you haven't asked any questions for other users, Site Helpers, or Moderators to answer.

 

There are over 67,000 members so it is impossible to give one-to-one advice. I wish we could help people individually, but it just doesn't work like that.

 

Just to let everyone know that I will be making my 5% donation to a charity of my choice rather than donate to this site.

 

That is your perogative. Donations are voluntary and the decision is left entirely up to you. However you seem to imply that you would have considered donating if you had received more help, but again looking at your thread I cannot see where you were looking for any help or advice.

Opinions given herein are made informally by myself as a lay-person in good faith based on personal experience. For legal advice you must always consult a registered and insured lawyer.

I am fairly sure that there are lots of people using this site in the way in which I have. I do not need spoon feed, I read, read and read again the FAQs before beginning my process and merely updated my progress out of courtesy - in the hope that I would have been congratulated and asked to donate.

 

I appreciate the huge numbers of people using this site who do need spoon feed and it is them that are taking up all of your time and effort because they fail to use the site as it is designed (self help).

 

My point is that you are loosing lots of potential donations because the site is lacking formal organisation.

 

I dont accept that your moderators are TOO busy to view all new posts, because they seem to have time to partake in offensive and time wasting threads that are of no use to anyone.

 

I will, however continue to recommend this site on a daily basis.

Thank you Andrew at least for that.

I am sorry no-one was there to give you encouragement when you needed it, i myself have been off site quite a bit lately and probably would've picked up your thread as i very often go 'trawling' as i call it for threads that have gone astray and not been answered!

Once again i can only apologise if i wasnt here at the time!

Good luck with your winnings and spend wisely!!

In hindsight, I could not have achieved the success I have had without the help of this site, so I have made a donation to charity and to the site!

 

Thank you very much.
