Somewhere in the middle.
I foolishly got myself into debt, which i hold my hands up for. I owed money on credit card and then lost my job.. which left me unable to pay bills..

so i went to see CAB etc and got it all sorted..

Then yesterday my mam put £330 into my bank account, id got it from a tax return and it was to give me a new start as i have just started working again, and gonna be able to pay my bills off at a reduced rate until im back on my feet.

Until today when i went to the bank, got 20 out, and i was 220 overdrawn.

As soon as lloyds had seen that i had 330 in my bank account they took £285 from me without warning.

Even though they have recieved a financial statement regarding what i can afford to pay back.

I know i dug this hole, but banks can be ***holes at times.
 
Managed to speak to them, and they said the money will be put back into my account, but not until tuesday by the time it clears.

So it was a bloody waste of time, they probably just wanted to try it out and see if i said anything.
 
Yeah well considering they have recieved details from the CAB about my payment plan, it was pretty out of order to take the money without contacting me first.

Anyway, they are gonna put it back in by tuesday sposedly, so all is not lost.

I just dont like their methods at times.
 
An update.

The number he gave me to ring is for a caravan site, is this guy for real.
