Out of interest do you have an ISA?
Did it say whether ISA cash is credited to your Linked account, which is what we are expecting, or is the ISA certificate they are sending out in effect a 'cheque' to deposit in your new ISA????0 -

Hmmm?
There must be tons of couples, including my wife and I amongst them, who share the same e-mail address.
Obviously, you logged into one of the Icesave accounts (say yours) and did the business necessary.
Now before you logged into the second one, (say your wife's) did you
1. Log out? (I assume 'Yes')
2. Close the browser? (Probably not, eh?)
3. Delete cookies? (Probably not, eh? Actually, it might be more important to do this than to do 2. above, I would have thought?)
In your opinion, is it really the fact that the two of you having the same e-mail address, that is definitely throwing a spanner in the works? Or might it actually be to do with the questions I've asked above?
I look forward to your reply with interest.
Oh and one more question...
4. Did your wife actually get her own second e-mail or were you doing her account on your own single second e-mail?0 -

We have a joint account but use the same email address and my bank account details for getting money out - I wonder if I will have trouble? We have separate log ins - but the same email. I was assuming that just one of us could log on and get the whole amount transferred?0 -

Quote:
1 Log on to your account as usual through the Icesave website which is now operational. You will need to confirm your User ID, unique password and memorable information, in the normal way. If you need to reset your password, you can do so at the log in screen.
2 You will be asked to verify the account balance of your Icesave account(s) and the details of your selected nominated account to which the payment is to be made. By completing the process you will instruct a payment of the Icesave account balance shown to your selected nominated account by an electronic transfer. The money should then arrive in your nominated account within approximately five working days.
3 If you hold an Icesave instant access account or ISA account, you will be paid compensation after you confirm your agreement to the terms for payment, including the transfer to the FSCS of all your rights in respect of your Icesave deposits against Landsbanki Islands hf, the Icelandic Depositors’ and Investors’ Guarantee Fund (DIGF) and any other relevant party. This transfer will not affect your deposit in any way and is a legal requirement for the FSCS to be able to recover money from Landsbanki Islands hf, the DIGF or any other relevant party.
4 For ISA holders, the same process will apply as for instant access account holders. The money you held in your ISA will not lose its tax-free status if you follow this process. An ISA certificate will follow by post to allow you to reinvest that sum in an ISA with another provider by 5 April 2009. You should receive your ISA certificate within 2 weeks of claiming compensation using the electronic process and you will have to give this certificate to your new ISA provider when you open your ISA with them.
Hope this helps.

My initial deposit credited my Icesave account on May 2008. :cool:

I opened a 6 month Fixed Rate account and transferred my ISA to Icesave in '08 but I've had an easy access account there for a couple of years now. that's another theory out the way for those trying to guess when they will get their 2nd e-mail.0
