Hidden charge for duplicate statement request

    I wish to make a complaint regarding paper account statements. I ordered from you online during the week. I needed account statements for my four bank accounts for the last six months on bank headed paper. I needed these for a new mortgage application via a broker. This morning I received the first of these statements. It was for my current account. It was black and white and stated the amount I had been charged for each page - €3.80 for the first page and €2.50 for every subsequent page.  I was not made aware of these charges on ordering. It merely states “charges may apply” and €23.80 has already been deducted from my credit card account. I would never have ordered this statement if it was going to cost this much. I mean someone didn’t have to run a big report or take a long time to carry out this task. They basically printed the statements that were already available to me via Banking365 and popped it in the post.

    It's cheaper to request them using the data protections acts.

    When is the money (including lost growth) Michael Noonan took in the Pension Levy going to be paid back?
