That is FANTASTIC, I hope he wins the case, not sure how in any way it's fraud if the document is there and signed by the bank.

Seriously, hats off to the guy, I love the clauses entered too

heh i like the fact the bank are trying to counter for fraud.. no deception here, ignorance is no defence mr banker

hope he wins.. perhaps the amount he's asking for is a bit ott and will probably be no where near that if he wins but i hope he does, clever idea

It's alright when the boot is on the bankers foot, and we don't read the T's & C's, they shaft us.

Boot is on the other foot now and it's fraud!

to him. They'll pay whatever it takes to have his life destroyed of course, either in court, or more viscerally.

Good on him, but I suspect the fact that his terms looked exactly like their terms, and he didn't make any effort to draw their attention to the changes he'd made, might come back to bite him.

That would certainly be the case in the UK. When someone sends you a contract, the onus is on you to read it. If you make changes to that contract and send it back, you'd have a very hard time enforcing any of the changes if you haven't drawn their attention to it.

Doubt he'll win, but glad he's fighting it. Don't suppose he can do it to another bank and use that card to pay his legal fees?

Brilliant in russia of all places i doubt he will get far sadly with the amount of backhanders likely to be going around, but none the less good to give them a bit of their own medicine

Might give it a go with Halifax
