It's a long time since Star-gazer and other contributors made their posts here, but ...

Does anyone know who the debt disputing company is referred to by Star-gazer? I've been looking at GP, but if there is a better way then would be glad to hear of it.

I've seen the recommendations for template letters etc, but I am working offshore and mostly out of contact, so need a company to help.

Many thanks to all for helpful and encouraging posts.

I strongly disagree with what you have said, I think maybe they have improved significantly since you had an account with them. I have recently opened an account with them an i think they are fantastic! Extremely helpful, the moneymanagers are well informed an deal with queries or issues whilst you are on the phone. They offer text services, Internet banking, text you when you have a credit to you account etc etc, The list goes on! I was with Barclays Bank, if you want to go with a terrible unhelpful bank i recommend Barclays. Think Bank are a significant improvement.

I have been with think banking for three years and in that time they have been getting worse, losing money paying direct debits i have cancelled taking money from my card acount for no reason, if you pay in extra money like a cheque you have to phone up to get it transferred to your card, which takes 10 days to clear, and the set up fees and running costs, also a lot of cash machines will not accept the card, i now gone online with halifax very quick to set up with no set up fees, but they will charge if a direct debit fails but you are in full control of your own money, and my credit score is bad, hope this is of help, martin,

Try halifax you get visa electron debit card, no set up fees or management fees, and control over your own money without making endless phone calls asking for your own money, martin
