Who wants my money for free?

I must be a walking cash cow for anyone to milk when they want. Got a letter from the bank saying they are taking £60 off me for an overdraft fee, even though I never stated I wanted an overdraft in my account, and when I did find out I paid enough money back in within 2 days. Add to that the £30 parking fine, £20 to pay for my tyres to be put back on my wheels as they had to get redone, £30 for an unfair parking fine (this is all in one week), not forgetting my accident that left me 1.5k in debt. This seriously is a joke! :roll:

If all I had to worry about was being £1.5k in debt to the bank of mum and dad then life would be so easy.

Time to bring out the Nitromors again I feel.

Depending on how excessively the bank chared you you could make an enquiry as banks have been found to overcharge jus because they can, giving you extra cash doesn't actually affect them as much as they charge you for. Many banks have had to repay people what they overcharged. Never had to do it myself but ask around and do research on people who have. You might ge something back.

As for the other sh*t, things'l get better- theres always hope! I'v got 15k debt myself which is why I can't do the car up or even save up for anything else

You're not alone Mouse as has already been said.

I've still got £1000 left on the GTi, a holiday to America to pay for, a trip to Nurburgring to sort out for next year, a bedroom to fully kit out, and a new car to save for.
