Well some progress. 

About half of the scam transactions have been erased but seems I have to wait another 2 weeks at least to see if the rest "will be refunded"  Slightly worrying that wording

 rubschin:   I have to say Nat West refunded me within a day and pursued the matter with no detriment to me.... eeek:

They don't trust Steve...... noooo:

You need to have sympathy with that  ... whistle:

Wot why you giving me the evil eye  eeek:
Cos he a decent sort of bloke and you're being a nasty taunting person?

Was it that much on your Nat West?  Visa have immediately struck it off for me before when it was about £700

As if....... angel1

It was my Debit card and from memory it was just over £3,000 they put it back in my account by the next day.. ;D

We used to have an Account with Lloyds which had all Mrs K's salary paid into it and suddenly they refused to talk to her on the phone unless I gave my written permission.  She'd had that account with them for over 30 years FFS so one account transferred to Barclays pdq but they've started playing silly buggers so we now also have an account with the Nationwide who are really good



so far
Well, whatever, nevermind

Do you want to add it to my bar bill or shall I photocopy another one for you?


[serious mode]  This took 2 weeks to resolve and was starting to bug me but at the end of the day I had at least that in savings and could see it would get sorted.  There are plenty of people out there that a loss like this would drive them over the edge and for 2 weeks might have seriously feared the very worst.  It doesn't take much to push some into walking in front of trains.  A key cause is credit card companies deciding you no longer have to tell them when you intend to use your card abroad, not even the USA where there's no chip and pin.  They need to rethink IMHO.  [/serious]
