Thanks to the anonymous donor of £15 - who ever you may be!!

 

Ditto to that.

 

If the donor merely forgot to put their UserID, then please pm Dave or me.

Thanks

Perhaps we could have a voluntary code as a condition of registration - donate 5% of any monies received to this site. I for one would be very happy to do this, as it is money I would not have without the help of the site.

 

Paypal, Amazon vouchers, cheques in the post?

[colour-me-happy]

Dave you are very welcome!

 

I think the work you guys are going is great, and without sounding really corny you have given me so much hope (not just with regard to getting any money back) but in actually standing up the the bank and if I only succeed in just rattling their cage then I will be very happy with that!

[Saner]

Not a lot, but every little helps

We have received three gift certificates yesterday.

We have been able to thank one person but not the other two as their usernames were not included in the vouchure.

 

However, we are extremely grateful.

If you will make yourselves kow to us, we will respond with a message of thanks

Hi. I will contribute on payday. Just had to fork out for my claim. I am willing to give support as a mod, or anything else that needs doing though.

[BankFodder]

how much have you raised so far.

[BankFodder]

Since the book scheme started we have bought 3 books - two on procedure at about £35 each. One on confidence at £136. About £30 of this has been paid for by ourselves. - So about £175 contributed.

 

Before that we bought 2 procedure books at about £35 each paid for by oursleves.

 

Receipts for the 3 books are posted on this thread.

[forestzoepotts]

Just a thought, but another avenue to explore could be http://www.freecycle.org where you can join the group nearest to you and post a WANTED message for any books you are after. It is free and I use the site to give and receive. The sites have many students and you may be able to get up to date books on here. It's worth a go, surely?

[Janet-M]

Small amount sent via your link .WHEN I win my case I will send more as I wouldn't of even known that I could claim my money back without the help and advice of Dave in M.S.E and the inspiration and practical advice of this site . THANK YOU everyone.

[Spiceskull]

As the amount you are asking for is quite small, have you considered opening a PayPal account? That way the money gets to you speedily, and you can (usually) spend it where you wish.

 

My own view is that when I win, I would like to make a %age contribution so that the group will be able to help others. Clearly the money itself would not be viable, so I will ask for a list of books required at the time, and will personally go out and get them for you (within reason of course...)

 

To see the steps I took to recover unfair bank charges with the help of Consumer Action Group, please read my thread Spiceskull v HSBC.

Received. Thank you very much.

:idea: Just a thought but as a 1st year law student I have access through Uni to Lexis Nexus & WestLaw so if there are any particular cases you want let me know and I will pm them to you. Not sure if this is helpful or not but saves you buying expensive case law books :idea:

[robert_harper_2000]

I don't quite understand why everyone is suggesting your untrust worthy! You helping everyone out, any questions any help needed and your there. I will 100% send some money when I get back. It only seems fair as I would have been letting the banks have the lot before.

 

Just grateful someone is helping beat this banks - they are literally robbing us and everyone accepts it as they wrote it in there T&Cs. Mad

 

Thanks, your doing a brilliant job. I've told loads of people about this site and really can see you lot making a difference.

I don't think that we are being suspected but people are naturally cautious. We don't have any structures or account at present and that will have to change. We will have to declare even our book donations to tax.

However, as at the moment we are only making HUGE losses (expenses), I don't think that there will be any problem.

This is a rather belated thankyou to Chaos5768 for the voucher.

 

I now realise why I didn't recognise the sender because it wasn't sent under the username.
