the senior mods may have other ideas but i wouldn't get carried away with good wheezes like that, if i were you. the judge is there to decide on matters of law, not listen to the opinions of people like him, irrespective of how elevated a postion he held. the key thing is that these are penalty charges designed to deter you from breaching the contract and, as such, unlawful.

 

here is what they have to say on their website;

 

Lloyds TSB - Current account charges

 

If you make a mistake

We understand that everyone can make mistakes from time to time. This is why we won’t charge you fees the first day you go overdrawn without agreement, as long as you haven't done so in the previous 12 months.(Whoopee!)

 

the words "without agreement" mean that you are breaching the contract. i think it is an admission that the charges will override the existing agreement if you breach and are specifically to stop you or penalise you if you do. and that is what makes them unlawful as the law regulates this.

 

i only mention this as someone posted a reply from SC&M saying that they weren't penalty charges.

Hi

 

Thanks

 

Do you know how I save it to a DVD or other form so I can take it to the bank? I'm a bit dim with these new technologies.

I'm confused!

 

Why do you need to take a radio clip recording to your bank ?

 

Sorry if I am being thick...

Copying it onto a CD would be better than a DVD. When you download it, it should be a .MP3 extension. Use a program like Windows Media Player or the software you got with your CD Re-Writer. Its hard telling you exactly as each software is different.

Busy with my bundle today. Only have until next Friday to get it in.

 

I've just listened to the discussion with Peter McNamara and read the comments on this thread.

 

My case is against Barclays so wonder if Mr McNamara's comments would be deemed irrelevant.

 

Secondly given a previous poster's comment that it is only an opinion and has no basis in law, is it worth including in my bundle?

 

I don't want to give the bank any ammunition to use against me.

 

Thanks,

 

John.
