  • Money In the wrong account Can I claim compensation

    Hi.
    Sorry to bore you all, but the more I think about it the more I get annoyed about it.

    I deposited £1000.00 into my account - went online to check if this had been received and my balance was nil. called the hotline number explained what I had done, he went through security with me.

    Basically, my card that I had in my name was showing as my boyfriends card account . So we have a savings account joint & a current account seperate to each other. I put the money into my savings account. It turns out the money had gone to my boyfriends current account, these cards are not linked. But the savings card was in my name, but showing his name. confused yes I was.

    Anyways what I need to know is, we have sepearte accounts they told me to go to my fella and ask him to give me the money I refused and told them its there mistake not mine. they ammend the card the manage said he has no idea how my boyfriend name is on my card when clearly the card is in my name. Money transferred back end of story.. I told the manage this money was my savings as I was planning to leave my boyfriend and do a moonlight flit, now he had jeapodised this, and my partner is a violent man I would get a beating for this. he appolgised and said comoputer error. so would I have the rights to demand compoensation dataprotection was jeopardise etc etc. sorry to bore and confuse..

    Is the boyfriend bit correct?

    I have come across this before so I can give you the technical stuff on here but you need to clarify a few things with the bank.
    Is the PAN number or long number across the card linked to your boyfriends account? Is the answer is yet then the bank have to, in all likelihood, order you a new card under your savings account number if the savings account should have come with a card. The current card is completely useless. They need to check whether any accounts are linked to the boyfriend's current account and then disentangle them.

    Compensation for DPA breech? No chance but interest backdated on savings account because of the error is a definite yes.
