A lot of people thought they would get a refund but the high court has come down on the side of the banks. <br /><br />Thankfully I have always avoided bank charges.Akelamaluhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11234268568845148285noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12709723.post-19527483938407398372009-12-04T10:16:07.687-05:002009-12-04T10:16:07.687-05:00There are many people who value money and power ov...There are many people who value money and power over anything else in this life.
