30/03/2011 - Letter from Moorcroft requesting £1 fee. I know this is an overdraft & doesn't need £1 payment, but should I send it anyway to see what they come up with? Alternatively, should I state that the account is in dispute as Santander failed to comply with the FOS's adjudication prior to the account being defaulted?
22/03/2013 - Decided to send copy of Niddy's 'Bank Accounts - CCA Reply' letter to Moorcroft. See what they come back with this time!
