IngDirect and 6% offer
Recently IngDirect offered 6% interest for a limited time (one month only, I think) on extra savings invested during a limited time.....or so I thought. I moved nearly £20,000 at the appropriate time but I only appear to have received the normal 4.5% (less 20% tax). Did I misunderstand their offer? Regards, Channelman

Just found out I had this....
I've got an National Savings Investment Account with £409 in BUT the last payment was put in 22 years ago today (July 1984) so with the high interest rates of the early/mid 90's do you think it has topped £1000? The current rate is 2.95% but I don't know how to get at the money! Can I get it out at the Post Office?

Chorley Bs Rovers Regular Saver
Any experience of this? http://www.chorleybs.co.uk/Affinity/premierrovers.html Seems reasonable on the face of it - 7%, 1 withdrawal per year, but hidden away on their website, and missing from most best buy tables (found it on Moneyfacts), so am I missing some terribly important subclause?

Suspicious about FA
My FA phoned last week and said he was coming over to review our financial status i.e our pensions. He then came over and only discussed our ISA which is a stocks ISA and told us that he is going to change it over to a Property ISA due to the volatile nature of the market. Anyone any thoughts on this. I personally think it…
