Best thing I’ve made with their sauce is hot wings.

Go to the butchers, buy a bunch of wings, and marinade in this truffle hot sauce:

Coat in cornflour, spray with a bit of oil, pop in the air fryer, and they come out amazing :ok_hand:

Happy new year from Ardlui. So far the threatened snow hasn’t arrived.

Hope 2026 is a good year for everyone.

that looks glorious. I really ought to make more of the fact that I can get to Loch Lomond in about 40 minutes from my local station.

Happy New Year all!

This is why I like the nationwide and first direct app. Nice clean layout where as I can’t seem to get rid of any of these.

All the Home Screen needs its balance and transactions like it used to.

Everything else in a “Hub” tab or similar. This includes savings, pots, extra/perks/max stuff.

We doing the 1p savings challenge?

Noticed monzo app has a “track card delivery” option for Royal Mail. Fancy! Has that been there long?

Anyone good with refund civil issues?

Went to Cineworld, have Unlimited but paid £10 uplift for the screen type.

Midway through film we were evacuated and not allowed to return. Had to also leave behind popcorn/drink (large). Told to get a refund.

Cineworld now saying as it was an Unlimited booking they won’t be refunding it. Offering a free combo deal (regular) for next visit.

Is it easier to just get a chargeback from Amex? It’s not a lot of money but I’m frustrated they refuse to refund the uplift.

Id use the chargeback as they didn’t provide the goods/services in line with the payment offered.

Could also argue the unlimited needs a partial refund as it’s still time and inconvenience.

I guess chargeback is probably easiest.

It’s infuriating that they just don’t refund due to being Unlimited. I wouldn’t be asking for one if it were a no cost booking.

Yeah; maybe they’ve overlooked that and raise a complaint. Seems an easy money grab for them.

Right as ever @Carlo1460 they just didn’t look at the booking fully it would seem.

It wasn’t there at the beginning of December when I ordered a Perks debit card. Would’ve been useful, though, because it took nearly a fortnight to arrive.

At least it’s sorted :tada:
