Wonderful post – I was working on a similar article which I will probably still take a shot at, but from a slightly different angle. Thanks for sharing this with your readers…I’m sure I’m not the only one who appreciates it.

something is far from straight down the line here. it is a conspiracy against paying back the public. this needs the general public to appeal against this.
come on it was all in favour for all of us to get our unfair bank charges back.
something stinks here.

I think the whole stinks!!!!!!!!!! The governemnt, as usual have gone about the whole thing in secret, as they think that we will just accept what they do and say as right – well WRONG.
I am careful with my money as I am a low wage earner and feel that the banks have fleeced us enough over the years and now the government are joining them.
It has already been mentioned that they would probably have to help in shelling out the repayments but if the banks are allowed to make these charges and as the government now has a huge stake would they not get a share of the profits made – another stealth stealing in action!!!

OFT is a government body but it would have been very difficult for the government to say whoa boy you need to back peddle here we have a lot of money invested and we can do without a 20 billion pound payout.

What else could they do? this is business

There must be something that can be done to bring this out in the open.

If they can cover up a payment of £62 billion what else are they capable of?

This stinks!!!!!!!!

All the experts said there was no way this could fail.

They obviously didn’t know there was going to be this kind of intervention

So if I m reading this correctly everything was plain sailing and we were all going to get our charges refunded until the government invested in two banks.

Not only have they invested but it looks like it is probably one of the largest investments they have ever made.

No way were they ever going to allow this money to be refunded once they had secretly invested this much money in to the banks.
I really thought all my charges were coming back

[...] recently announced that it secretly injected 62 billion pounds into both of these banks, could there be a conspiracy in play or is it simply coincidence that the government was facing a 20 billion pound loss if the OFT had [...]
