Can I ask which bank it is you're dealing with?

Yorkshire bank

Past experience suggests that Yorkshire / Clydesdale can be a bit anal on the matter of DPA requests.

Keep me up to speed with developments and I'll help / advise where I can.

I agree with the anal bit, this is what they sent....

God bless Aileen's cotton socks, she seems to be labouring under the impression that they have 40 days from receipt of your cheque when in actual fact the clock is ticking from receipt of your request.

Pretty much as I thought. Send them the £10.00 and let them get on with it.

I'm hoping it won't come to much argument as it was return of post that letter came via. If they can do that then my request can't take much longer.

Arrived this morning in 2 very large envelopes, will go through them tonight :)

Just to be pedantic I had recieved another letter confirming my payment and saying upto 40 days again :confused:

Reclaiming bank and credit card charges was on TV last night ITV1 2000 hrs Trevor MacDonald.

Banks are not going to court, as they do not want the courts to set a president, which everyone can then use. In the cases shown they were giving full funds totalling in the thousands. One person got back 4.5k :) :)

How it is going with everyone ???

Mum's received every charge back she's compalained about so far. She always has done, the banks are wrong and they knew it. :)

Will be able to let you all know the horror of my total tonight :(

Still if I get it back I'll be made up.

Does this go for store cards too? Argos have charged me £17.50 TWICE now, and it's not that i didn't pay my bill, i was just a few pence short and they refuse to refund it, and believe me i tried every trick in the book.

I think this also applys to those sort of cards pia, Might cost you a couple of 1st class stamps but the return will pay for a night out ;)

If i was to reclaim all my bank charges, credit card and store card charges i would be a very happy bunny.

Now, i really will have to get my finger out and do this!

I've had another £30 charge from my bank for going overdrawn since i started reading this, and i rang up but was told i couldn't have it back- no suprises there.
I just left it though cos i felt i didn't know what i was talkling about enough to blag it...

Having had a look at my current and last bank statement - i've been charged 5 times for a cheque going out of my account ( had no money in account anyhow but still, they pay the cheque for you and then give you the one charge which i wouldn't have minded). How ridiculous is this going to get? It seems that every 2 weeks I am being charged £38 for the same cheque going out of my account! It's criminal! :mad:

Then you will be able to claim all of this back.

Have a go Pia its really easy, If you want the letter writing I have mine saved and can send you it. (minus my personal details of course) ;) Mind you on second thoughts I can't think of a nicer stalker :P
