Janet-M v Lloyds (account holder deceased )

[Janet-M]

My father had an account with Lloyds TSB and he was being charged £14 a month for it ,as it had benefits .. not one of the benefits where any good to him and had never been .. when I found out about it he was 82 and all the benefits stopped when you reached 80 anyway.My father insisted that he had never signed anything and had actually refused the account, many times , when they phoned .Then he realised his account had changed but being of the age he was. he trusted the bank so thought it must of changed for a good reason.My dad was the type of person that 'anything for an easy life' so would not let me challenge the bank.I was fuming at the time , still am ,as my father was a frail old man but I respected his wishes .With only losing him a few months ago I just couldn't start this but after seeing Whistleblower tonight then I think now is the time to challenge it .

 

I will be sending the SAR tomorrow.

Hi Janet sorry to hear of your loss, a very touching story and one that many people will relate to now with the recent revelations, it amazes me how they can do this without even a signature, reminds me of a salespersons for gas/elect who had done this on their own (signed) only to find later after relations complained that the customer had passed away before the agreement was suppossedly signed.

All the best with this one.

as long as you are a named executor or trustee from his will, else you could have problems.

I have a letter of administration from the high court as he died intestate .Any money owing to my father I am athorised to collect and distribute to the rightful people.As far as I am concerned this is money owed to him.

 

Can I just make it clear though that I am not doing this for financial gain for myself I am doing it to right a wrong I believe was done to my father.

After 3,100 + posts Janet I don't think you need to explain your motives -and I won't say good luck -you don't need it.
