Also very interesting: What documents do I need to open NatWest joint account? Does anyone know the Yorkshire building society sort code? Can I claim back Yorkshire bank overdraft interest charges? Will Yorkshire Bank (Preston) do a credit search? How do people organise their investments & accounts on paper? Advice from a Halifax Bank investment account holder? What count as assets? Accounts and investments? Who can offer me a clear definition? Accounts = danger or safety? Who has the best or easiest cash flow accounts? Are securities accounts needed to trade stocks and shares?

But if you were already overdrawn then it is hard to prove how much interest is due to the charges and actually because of your money. Just be happy you got the charges back at least!!!!
