I got an email about the Olympic prize draw, but nothing about this. Now thinking I should hold off a Halifax clarity application, but hard to know as of course the timeframe could change
Oh this would be great! Are you able to post screenshots of any parts of the email that seem to contain info about it (if you haven’t already posted them in the previous screenshots) please? Thanks
Just tell the post office how much you want they will tell you if you can have that amount

Well if they want people to get and use it for their summer holidays they’d better crack on and release it before summer…

Happened to me when I sent 7£ to my wise account. Had to show my passport in branch and call them to fix it. Only happened with natwest

£7 or £7m, it’s still there to protect you.
Usually means they’ve had a higher than normal level of fraud and scams to such accounts.
£7 might not mean much to you but it’s a few meals to someone else.

It’s not so much the £7 but that fraudsters sometimes try a small amount before a much larger one.

In London, 7£ is the daily subscription cost of leaving your house.

It’s not a lot cheaper on public transport in the rest of the country and we’re paid less

Just SAR (subject access request) them for your recorded calls, I just had this with Ulster Bank Ireland while trynig to sell my house (which is a perfect example of the awfulness that gets created when you don’t have competition, like the Irish banking market):
Me: So your saying you never got my house deeds and gave me the mortgage anyway, and never heard from my solicitor last week to ask for them?
CS: Yes, we never received your deeds, and we never heard from your solicitor. But I can see here that we sent your deeds to my solicitors name last week (they didn’t send them) and random solicitor I’ve never heard of 6 years ago
Me: Do you understand how stupid what you just said is?
They just paid out €2k to have somebody draw up the documents I need, all because of that one call (I spent atleast 15 hours on the phone with them that week)
The text message (for Ulster Bank Ireland SAR portal) came from Natwest UK with the other messages regarding my Natwest account

I’m gonna assume that NatWest’s customer support will likely have a better idea where a transaction is from than us lol.
If I Google 4399 debit card it comes up with either a Chinese entertainment pre-paid card service or the first 4 digits of cards issued by Belco Community Credit Union in the US.
Or it could be 4 random numbers.

Probs the most expensive travelodge I have ever seen.

Also most expensive breakfast I’ve seen.
4399 could be the branch ID of somewhere you’ve bought from.
