I'm assuming that the chargeback claim takes the money back in the same way that they took the money in the first place. It is a bank to bank

Chargeback was allowed because the OP did not give permission for the transaction but it is not illegal.

The dispute will then continue as it is now with the OP having to pay the money back because under the T's and C's he is in the wrong,

That is how I would understand it.

There is a pompous tw@t who posts on chit chat who I think is a solicitor.

'Orioles' or some such

Mind you he would no doubt take the legal moral high ground

ASs I said before in my considered opinion I would just ignore them or tell them to fook off

They have a bunch of thieving gobshytes with a lousy website and are based offshore to avoid properly due taxes so deserve nothing more

It sounds like they have acted illegally in attempting to take money from your bank account as a sum instead of the payments and references you used.

Silly man, should rely on Homefortea's homespun legalise or better still listened to the last two posters who clearly know f'all and couldn't even be bothered to read the thread.

Morally OP should give the money but in slow installments to reflect the trouble that SJ's inefficiency has given him.

I would also suggest he shouldn't have posted on a public forum if he is considering a legal response.

I dont think he should. It is their error for not taking the money, correctly, in time. It wasnt a loan, it was a payment, and if they dont claim that payment, that's their problem.

I dont think they would take you to court either. Most likely, they would put your account onto a debt collection agency, who would try to contact you. If they did that you could either ignore the letters until they give up, which is quite likely, or reply to them and tell them to dispute it with your bank.

Personally, I would try to reach a compromise.

In your favour:

*They are registered in Gib so legally they may have problems trying to recover the money in a different jurisdiction

*They must have been in the wrong when they dipped into your bank account without prior warning because they refunded you when your bank intervened - they wouldn't have done this out otherwise.

*The lack of control over their own systems went on over a period of time. A glitch in the system is acceptable but if it went on for longer then you could argue that this problem was caused by their own incompetence, and that any responsible company should have realised their mistake much earlier and all this should have been avoided. In essence they are partly responsible (as are you for not checking your statements).

*Recovery of this money would leave you financially in the s*** because you thought you had more money in the bank than you actually have etc etc


Not in you favour

You have been placing bets but have not payed for them.



I would suggest writing to them outlining that you think they are partly responsible for this situation. Give them the reasons why. Then say you would like make them an offer of 30% (an opening offer!!) as a full and final settlement. See what they say. Increase the offer over a week or two.

If they won't budge after all this, wait and see if they get a debt agency in. If they do throw in the towel and offer them the full payment in the smallest installments you can get away with OVER the longest period of time you can get away with.
