Whats the Law?
Penalty charges are unlawful. Banks can only impose charges which are in proportion to their costs. Many (Us included) believe there's no way a £30ish charge, when someone exceeds their overdraft limit or bounces a cheque, is proportionate.
Remember it could simply be 1p over the limit and you're charged, and even if it's more you pay interest anyway. It's their costs we're looking at. Does it really cost £30 for a computer to write and send an automated letter?
If it isn't proportionate then it's unlawful, and thus you've a right to your money back. That’s where we can help.
Getting back what is yours
If you have had charges made to your bank account in the past 6 years then you can legally request that these be paid back to you. All you need to do is contact us or fill in the online form and we'll do the rest.
