Charged Twice Aaargh!!!
I need to rant. Was blissfully happy when I noticed a wonderful £911.64 had finally disappeared from my account on the 21st of November (application received on 21st August) until I did a routine mini statement and realised the identical amount disappeared from my account on the 28th of November as well! To make matters more compicated - neither were receipted to my agent! I might add that it was out of a current account I opened for immigration purposes with no overdraft AND THE BANK AUTHORISED THE SECOND PAYMENT EVEN THOUGH IT SENT ME £748 OVERDRAWN!!! Just try getting in touch with ASPC without a file number or receipt number or anything. Hopefully my bank will not authorise a third payment just for fun. I now am bouncing other cheques as I thought I had £200 in the account. My wonderful agent is trying to sort it out (as are the bank in TWO WEEKS TIME) but it's a good thing medicals aren't soon or my blood pressure would be sky high!!! My agent says she's never heard of this happening in her 15+ years - please tell me this isn't the beginning of more problems

Wow what a pain! I hope it gets sorted quickly for you, especially since it is such a lot of money this close to Christmas! They'll be having champagne and caviar at their Christmas party this year! Maybe it'll make them process faster :D

Good luck I hope you get it back soon!

Oh dear,

It's not like you can shout at em either!
1. Coz you cant get hold of em to do it and
2. Because you dont want to be in their bad books!!!

Hope you get it sorted soon so you can go ahead and enjoy christmas.
