Response to Lloyds tsb C&G

from Vic Harper (victorcharper@aol.com)
I would respectfully refer you to the lead article in the Sunday Times Money Section, dated June 22nd, 1997, entitled "Hidden fines add thousands to mortgages" in which a C&G customer, John McKerrell (who is known to me) received a £66,000 'refund' (after a five year struggle) in an out of court settlement despite statements by C&G that its figures were correct and fair and a repossession order by the courts. He was not repossessed. Given the content of this story, I will leave it to your imagination as to how cautious you should be, and the documentation that you should insist upon.

It would be useful if you could post any dates of when you took out your mortgage and the amounts involved which may throw up points for consideration.

I believe others have had a little trouble accessing the S/Times story, but if you go to the S/Times and go to the bottom of the page and click on 'search' you will find the 22/06/97 edition. Scroll down the right handside of the front page to the 'Money Section' and click on, this will bring up the article.

Good luck. Vic
