I have had my id stolen !!!

some lowlife in the uk set up an account in 2004 with well known bank - it sounds like flabby rational
and have been spending under my name - this only came to light when I got a letter saying that I owe them money in an account thats now gone overdrawn - they had my name, address & d.o.b.
Now I got on to them & their fraud dept. and this morning I had to go to one of their banks with a letter stating that this account has totally nothing to do with me in any way and it was faxed to their fraud dept.
now I found out that they have bought the usual crap - phones, electrical stuff and even set up direct debits
but the guy kinda didnt believe me this morning when I said I have never been in one of their banks, never had an account with them and never had a card with them - was made to feel like a criminal sitting there whilst this guy was shouting fraud about the place
I told him they wont get a penny from me and I will happily go to court if needed - now has this happened to anyone else and if so how quickly was it resolved ??
and how can someone set up and account using somone elses stuff ??

thanks
