    • How do I 'link' a letter without posting it publicly. Sorry for stupid question.
    • Rather than dsunaks lies, lets look at the reaL Data and real black holes in the UKs budget - all created by the poop Tories   Public sector finances, UK: April 2024   Main points Borrowing – the difference between public sector spending and income – was (a black hole of) £20.5 billion in JUST April 2024, the fourth highest April borrowing since monthly records began in 1993. Borrowing in April 2024 was £1.5 billion more than in April 2023 and £1.2 billion more than the £19.3 billion forecast by the Office for Budget Responsibility (OBR). Public sector receipts grew by £1.6 billion compared with April 2023, however, this growth was outstripped by a £3.1 billion increase in spending over the same period. Since our March 2024 publication, we have increased our initial estimate of borrowing in the financial year ending March 2024 by £0.8 billion to £121.4 billion, now £7.3 billion more than the £114.1 billion forecast by the OBR. Public sector net debt excluding public sector banks (debt) at the end of April 2024 was provisionally estimated at 97.9% of gross domestic product (GDP); this was 2.5 percentage points more than at the end of April 2023, and remains at levels last seen in the early 1960s. Excluding the Bank of England, debt was 89.9% of GDP, 8.0 percentage points lower than the wider debt measure. Public sector net worth excluding public sector banks was in deficit by £703.4 billion at the end of April 2024, a £93.5 billion larger deficit than at the end of April 2023.     and the Tory legacy of financial mismanagement  to be passed on :   UK government debt 2023 | Statista WWW.STATISTA.COM Government debt in the United Kingdom reached over 2.25 trillion British pounds in 2022/23, compared with 1.83 trillion pounds in... - and graph does NOT show the increases as it should

    • uncle, why you think the last 2 years I did not not do this lol - 90% was keeping my partner sane... but after explaining everything and that we have a plan she is feeling a lot better about it.
    • That's very interesting to hear! I received a notification of a CC verification from Coles in Australia on the 12th May - also a Sunday evening. Not having been to Oz for about 30 years I was somewhat suspicious and so immediately cancelled the card. Guess what, it's the one I use to pay Lyca with........... If you've got any further information I'd be interested in hearing it.

    • Hello,

      On 15/1/24 booked appointment with Big Motoring World (BMW) to view a mini on 17/1/24 at 8pm at their Enfield dealership.  

      Car was dirty and test drive was two circuits of roundabout on entry to the showroom.  Was p/x my car and rushed by sales exec and a manager into buying the mini and a 3yr warranty that night, sale all wrapped up by 10pm.  They strongly advised me taking warranty out on car that age (2017) and confirmed it was honoured at over 500 UK registered garages.

      The next day, 18/1/24 noticed amber engine warning light on dashboard , immediately phoned BMW aftercare team to ask for it to be investigated asap at nearest garage to me. After 15 mins on hold was told only their 5 service centres across the UK can deal with car issues with earliest date for inspection in March ! Said I’m not happy with that given what sales team advised or driving car. Told an amber warning light only advisory so to drive with caution and call back when light goes red.

      I’m not happy to do this, drive the car or with the after care experience (a sign of further stresses to come) so want a refund and to return the car asap.

      Please can you advise what I need to do today to get this done. 
       

      Many thanks

    • We have finally managed to obtain the transcript of this case.

      The judge's reasoning is very useful and will certainly be helpful in any other cases relating to third-party rights where the customer has contracted with the courier company by using a broker.
      This is generally speaking the problem with using PackLink who are domiciled in Spain and very conveniently out of reach of the British justice system.

      Frankly I don't think that is any accident.

      One of the points that the judge made was that the customers contract with the broker specifically refers to the courier – and it is clear that the courier knows that they are acting for a third party. There is no need to name the third party. They just have to be recognisably part of a class of person – such as a sender or a recipient of the parcel.

      Please note that a recent case against UPS failed on exactly the same issue with the judge held that the Contracts (Rights of Third Parties) Act 1999 did not apply.

      We will be getting that transcript very soon. We will look at it and we will understand how the judge made such catastrophic mistakes. It was a very poor judgement.
      We will be recommending that people do include this adverse judgement in their bundle so that when they go to county court the judge will see both sides and see the arguments against this adverse judgement.
      Also, we will be to demonstrate to the judge that we are fair-minded and that we don't mind bringing everything to the attention of the judge even if it is against our own interests.
      This is good ethical practice.

      It would be very nice if the parcel delivery companies – including EVRi – practised this kind of thing as well.

In simple terms this is 1 of my 3 accounts,

its literally used for a couple of direct debits that I want to keep separate.

Having second thoughts considering I keep missing them.

 

I had a direct debit come out this morning which I had forgotten about,

checked my bank and it had been paid so I thought best transfer enough in so i'd not go overdrawn which I did.

And being extremely cynical of banks I take screenshots of everything just incase.

 

 

Interestingly I just checked back and that same direct debit has now been bounced

and if you have a look at my screenshots from lunch time today and this evening you will see that they prized the bounced dd

between the dd and the credits.

 

 

Naturally i'm extremely anoyed about this and you can bet that if i'd not of credited the account they'd of paid it and charged an od fee.

I will be charged £25 for this so naturally if I can get around this i'd like to.

 

I should add that there is no charge for being less that £10 overdrawn and they do not charge for being overdrawn if you are bank before 3.30 that working day.

Any ideas much appreciated.:-x

Strangely checked my banking today by phone and was surprised to be overdrawn.

 

There was a debit for £72 that was not on my pending transfers yesterday

 

I got through to a rep who told me it was overdraft charges from last month,

 

he then said and I quote

"I've refunded them and they will be back in your account tomorrow",

 

its a business account if that makes any difference but I was totally lost.

 

Ive had a couple refunded before just for asking but I didn't even have to ask.

 

Guess I'm just putting this here as it is probably worth giving them a bell if you have charges and asking.

 

I didn't even have to turn on the confused act.

Ive just noticed that my hsbc account is now an Advance account rather than the standard account. Ive not had anything in writing or have I applied for anything. Should I be concerned?, is there are a charge on this?. All I can seem to find is lower overdrafts but I don't use and overdraft so makes no difference.

The only thing I can possibly think is that I closed a business account a few months ago and they moved the credit card which was a commercial card to my personal account. :???:

I think you should perhaps ask them why they have done this and ensure you obtain a copy of the terms and conditions for the account.

Some banks do make these changes without advising customers. What you need to establish is, if this is a free account and that you wont be charged for things you don't want.

 

They are obliged to advise you 30 days before any changes are made to any changes in account or terms and conditions.

Yeah.

Maybe its in with a statement or something so i'll have a look.

After having a search it seems it is now free and offered to those earning over a certain amount.

As far as I'm concerned as long as there are no negatives i'll just continue.

Have just noticed this from a recent t&c update which came as an email (google Important changes we've made to the terms and ... - HSBC) and you can download the pfd, I can't seem to get the link to copy.

HSBC Advance Bank Account eligibility

We’ve added an alternative eligibility requirement. So instead of paying at least £1,750 into your account each month you can alternatively pay a minimum of £10,500 into your account every 6 months. Internal transfers from any other sole or joint personal accounts you hold with HSBC Bank won’t count towards these amounts. HSBC Advance Bank Account applications are subject to status and internal checks.

Page 7

Bank Account terms and conditions clause 1

We’ve added the right for us to upgrade a Bank Account to either a HSBC Premier Bank Account or an HSBC Advance Bank Account if you meet the eligibility criteria.

Page 6

Current Account eligibility

We’ve added the right for us to upgrade a Current Account to an HSBC Advance Bank Account if you meet the eligibility criteria.

Graduate Bank Account terms and conditions

We’ve added the right for us to convert a Graduate Bank Account to either an HSBC Advance Bank Account or Bank Account (depending on which eligibility criteria you meet) at the end of the two year term.

Well 6 weeks later I got another letter giving me 2 months notice to close my account and move on. I suspect it was business use.

Have since opened a business account with Santander and a Cahminder with Co-op. Being extremely careful and looking after everything and keeping things in order. Strange no doubt.

Just doing my tax return and need to check a few things. In order to do so I need statements for a couple of closed accounts with hsbc.

Now I only need the statements and nothing else and I know it would take them a long time to compile a SAR while I imagine statements could be done very quick.

 

I have no local branch now so any ideas what to request would be appreciated.

Statements are usually a few quid a pop per page... If I remember rightly.

 

A SAR may be the best way :) Will be done within 40 days (Usually 14 - 21 days)

 

Just specify what you want in the SAR, they will supply just what you need...

We could do with some help from you.

SAR would be the best way to go agreed, however, when were the accounts closed? Longer than six years?

No, one was literally closed june this year and the other the year before. I only need 13 months worth of statements. I was doing online only through that period so didn't ever have statements.

No but if you pay the Stat Fee for a SAR request and request them they will give them to you as its information held on you under the DPA Request

I just rang them and they said to send a letter and £10 to my nearest branch(which is now not that local) requesting which statements I need and they will post them me within 5 days. Seems simple enough. I'll just drop a letter with a £10 note in the post.
