So on 31st December I bought a Canon 500D, lens and Tripod with a 3 way head, ready for animating seamlessly with Dragon or StopMotion Pro (and others) to effectively start off my business.
The problem? I ordered it on 31st December and CameraWorld bank with Lloyds, Lloyds had a real fuck up and double charged every transaction that day.
See the article http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/business-12122210
I found out via a text from my bank at 8AM saying I was going to go overdrawn. WTF? No I should have a good £400 in there! 3.5 hours later and I’ve had to borrow money from other bank accounts to avoid excessive charges on this one (risking charges once a-fucking-gain on my other ones)
I shall be putting in reimbursement forms to LLoyds for for £608 they owe me as well as the 4 hours I was making calls to Camera World, Visa, CardNet and themselves without answer whilst in my bank.
What a Fuck Up Lloyds! I will never ever open an account with you.

UPDATE
have been refunded as of Friday afternoon, looking forward to receiving my camera and tripod now
