I lost my chequebook after only using 5 cheques.
I rang PTSB to cancel the 35 unused cheques which they did.
I then asked for a refund on the 35 x €0.50 stamp duty charges which I've already paid and they said "Yes, just bring in the 35 unused cheques and we'll give you a refund".
I told them that as I've lost the chequebook that wouldn't be possible, they said I shouldn't have lost the chequebook so.
I feel I deserve the €17.50 back especially as the 35 cheques have been cancelled so I won't ever be able to use them.
The 50c stamp duty is supposed to be on issued cheques, not on unused blank cheques.
Are they in the right?
