Business Bank Charges Bank of Scotland

Hi all

 

I have just had a reply from the BOS regarding my LBA, which states;

I am sure you are aware of the considerable media coverage, blah blah blah. These claims are based on the Unfair Terms of Consumer Contracts Act and the decision by the OFT in relation to credit card charges. Unfortunately, neither of these relate to business customers, and as there has been no error in their application, i am unable to offer a full refund of £.

 

Having considered all the circumstances of the case, it seems we have reached the position where no further explanations will serve any usefull purpose.

Then it goes on to say to contact the FOS.

 

What do i do next, carry on with my letter of action. bit confused because they are stating that they don't want to write to me again on this matter

 

 

Please help.

Hi Snowjo,

 

With my first claim against BOS on my Business Account they sent me an identical letter, load of hogwash. I have twice claimed and won on my Business Account, the second time I claimed they just ignored everthing I sent them but still paid up in full two weeks after my court calling date. In both my claims I quoted the Unfair Contract Terms in Consumer Regulations (1999) and the Unfair Contract Term Act (1977). It worked for me twice. Stick to your timetable, they will waffle to you as much as they can to stall you. If you have already sent your Letter Before Action, give them 14 days then take them to court.

Stick with it, and you will get your cash.

 

Regards.

 

Scott.

Hi Scott

 

Just wondering about whether they let you go all the way with court dates or whether they paid out after you threatening them with court.
