Reclaiming bank charges from old account.

[danroll]

Hi, i know the case is currently on hold but i want to know where i stand on reclaiming charges from someone i no longer bank with. it\'s natwest, the account has been closed for about three or four years now and i don\'t have any statements. but in the time i banked with them i racked up quite a few fees.

are they obliged to send me statements under DPA for me to add up what i\'m owed by them?. i\'d assume they\'ll be charging a fee which is fine.

thanks
dan

You are just as entitled to claim as if you still had the account.

thanks.

will they still have my banking information on record? is there a certain amount of time they must keep my bank statements after the account has been closed?

Banks only have to keep files for around 6 years; however, thats not to say they dont have any prior to that. It just depends on what they have retained.
