Almost every large transaction you make, there is some sort of plan attached to it. Sometimes, you are made aware of it, sometimes, you don’t even know they exist. A lot of banks do that, even though it is perfectly illegal. And they are quite aware of it.
Bank charges like PPI policies can be reclaimed via a reclaim bank charges motion. If it is proven that you do not need the PPI policy, hence, you were mis sold the ppi; you can file PPI reclaim to get your money back.
Act smartly, but don’t be proud. If there are bank charges that you do not understand, do not write it off as something trivial. You might be paying a lot of banking fees that actually make little use for you.
Loan charges from banks can also be reclaimed, and is often initiated if a customer finds out why they’re paying for a loan who’s monthly dividends do not coincide with the agreed payment scheme.
This might be a little tricky, but it will help you detect possible future scams as well as educating you on how to look out for invisible bank charges. Take out your bank bills and bank statements. Using a calculator, try and add up everything you are paying for. You just might be surprised.
