Hi Kroneeyman, I hope you opened another account,this is what you are advised to do at the beginning of your claim. Although a lot of banks won't close your account, they can and will if they want!

Hello and Welcome,

 

I was with BOS for about the same number of years and they shut my account too.(nothing like throwing the dummy out of the pram). Have a look in the Abbey Forum, read a few threads then start one yourself. People dealing with Abbey will be able to help you with your claim. Read all the F.A.Q.s and step-by-step instructions. Makes the process easier in the long run. Oh, and BOS managed to open my (closed) account when I claimed a second time, so they could take their £300 overdraft from my claimed back charges.

 

Best wishes with your claim.

 

Regards.

 

Scott.

Just stick to your time scales, not theirs, follow all the advice given on here ie; read the faqs, ask advice when you need to and start your own thread in the Abbey forum. Enaid

KRONEEEYMAN1,

Hi and welcome to the CAG site

 

You've definately taken the first step into claiming back what's rightfully yours.

 

Spend time reading the FAQ's and the Step by Step guide as this will stop you making mistakes along the way. Use the letters and spreadsheets in the Templates Library as these have all been tried and tested in successful claims. Read as many threads as you can especially ones that relate to your bank. This is a SELF HELP site and won’t do the work involved for you. However, everything you need is on here somewhere.

 

Don't be afraid to ask any questions, no matter how stupid they may seem, but please remember that any advice that you receive is normally based on experience only and that you should seek expert advice if required.

 

Once you start the process of your claim remember to open a thread in the relative bank forum, this will enable you, and others helping you, to keep track of your claim.

 

Good luck with your claim
