Bleeding Microfiche

[sheffielder]

Anybody would think access to microfiche is as hard as getting to Mars.

 

I've had the same old lettter and have flicked through numerous threads. Does anybody actually have a solution or had success cos it seems most threads on here are people complaining (rightfully so) about the same problem.

 

Thanks.

Im fairly certain the IC has paid a visit to barclaycard and will rule shortly on whether it is or isnt a relevant filing system. They did the same with the Abbey and found that it was relevant and must be disclosed on receipt of a SAR.

 

So you should know shortly.

 

Interestingly I had a recent claim with Barclaycard but was restricted to charges which they would disclose since May 2004. As part of the claim they made an offer of the difference between 20.00 and 12.00 on all charges since the account was opened.

 

Apart from the fact that the offer of goodwill was nearly as much as the claim as a result of them including all charges, a simple calculation enabled me to work out exactly how many charges I had had. ie. amount of goodwill refund divided by 8 = number of total charges.

 

I have worked out that there must have been 10 charges pre 2004, They have refunded 8.00 on each already so they owe me 120.00

 

as a result 2nd claim has now started statements or not.

 

If I were you I would crack on with what you know about and come back for a second claim when you get the Pre 2004 information.

I too have had the 'microfiche? All too difficult letter' suggesting a £3 fee per sheet. I am going to use the hard copies of charge provided from May 04 to present day (about£100 worth) and go for that.

 

Interestingly I had a 'goodwill gester' of £65 credited to my account, which I obviously moved out straightaway. I'll let you know how I progress.
