3 days ago i go and transfer some funds from a HSBC student account i have into a savings account with ING, the morning after i double check to make sure its on its way but on my ING account it doesnt seem to have shown up.
I quadrouple checked it all and the money wasnt showing up as "funds to be cleared" as it usualy does so i went ahead and made the transaction again thinking the first time id made a mistake or not gone all the way through.
Anyway i check my account today with HSBC and im £170 in debt, so im like o bugger, so i go and phone up ING, they tell me one of my transfers got bounced straight back to HSBC, so i phone HSBC and ask whats going on and they tell me im getting charged £25 for a cancelled direct debit.... well wow £25 for a stupid little mistake and for someone to press a button to cancel my debit.
Now i understand why people get so anoyed with banks >.>
So do i have anyway of getting this back or am i basically gonna have to swallow it and be more carefull next time?
