And what realy gets my goat is them saying it is to stop binge drinking!

 

 

Thi is the government who gave us 24 hour drinking!

Stop treating the public like they are stupid! We all know its an easy tax. Those that are guzzling cider in great volumes because its cheaper than water are not going to take the slightest bit of notice and neither are the very rich.

 

But for hard working and pensioners all these extras are going to hurt what ever small treats they get.

 

Petrol is a nightmare as well for small businesses and why should we be paying so much when other countries are not.

 

Rant over !

 

Personally I think the government are driving us to drink and then making more tax out of it.!

oi oi cagsters,sumtings goin down in dah hood!! well i never,well i did ,or at least i think i heard it right.so what is going to happen next?

[sea-sidelady]

This is what today means.

 

The judgment out today basically had three points to decide:

 

 

1. If the Unfair Terms in Consumer Contracts Regulations of 1999 could be applied to the terms relating to bank charges for overdrafts in personal current accounts.

 

2. If such terms were written in plain and intelligible language

 

3. If the law of penalties applies to overdraft charges in personal current accounts.

 

 

 

The High court held:

 

 

1. In favour of the OFT - yes the UTCCR 1999 do apply

 

2. Mainly in favour of the banks although some in favour of OFT

 

3. The law of penalties does not apply to overdraft charges because the charges are not payable on a breach of contract.

 

 

This is a massive victory on the part of the consumer. This means that the High Court have ruled that the Unfair Terms in Consumer Contracts Regulations do apply to overdraft charges which the banks have always denied.

 

 

This was simply the first round which may be subject to an appeal. Once the first round is finalised their may be further litigation to decide if the charges are unfair or there may be a compromise agreement between the OFT and the banks. But it is an important first step in getting a final decision.

 

 

 

 

What this means for you:

 

 

 

If your claim is currently stayed - the stay will remain in place until at least May 22nd when a decision will be made on any applications for appeal. The even if there are no appeals the stays may remain in place after this time until the second issue is resolved.

 

 

 

 

If you have not yet put in a claim but have written your preliminary letter do continue to make a claim so that you can claim your interest. If you wait until the outcome of the final decision it is unlikely that you will be able to file a claim as assuming the court rules in the consumer's favour the banks are likely to pay out on receiving complaint without waiting for you to file a court claim. In which case you will lose out on the valuable interest.

 

 

If you have not done anything yet then you can start the process by doing a Subject Access Request as detailed in the step by step instructions and then totalling up your charges using the spreadsheets and send off your preliminary letter demanding money and following the normal process.

 

Claims which are not affected by this decision:

 

CREDIT CARD

MORTGAGE CLAIMS

CLAIMS ON LOAN ACCOUNTS

 

Claims which are affected:

 

All personal bank accounts

 

The ruling on penalties will have serious implications on business claims. It is not currently advisble to claim on a business account.

hiya chubbs, at least its a bit of good news for us !!

[chubbas dad]

hi yah jen
