Medium size garage group in South of England with eleven showrooms and a turnover around £25M per annum running a consolidated account where the interest is charged to the central "wash" account on the daily cleared overdrawn balances were overcharged £16,000 in just fifteen months. Despite having on line banking and a chartered accountant as financial controller they were unable to detect the over charge until BCALC carried out the Audit. The over charge was repaid to the company by their bank which is a household name.
Small shopkeeper in Surrey selling furnishings with annual turnover of £600,000 was charged £10,600 in interest and managemant charges in just fourteen months. The overdraft averaged only £5800 per month for the period and peaked for just one month at £12,000. If it was not for the excessive charges, the account would have remained in credit for most of the period audited. The charges caused the overdraft for most of the time!
