Last bit of money in premium bonds what to do?
When I inherited in 2020 I put the max in Premium Bonds because the payout was much better than bank interest. I've since spent almost all of it on property improvements and left £1,000 in there as 'emergency fund' but now the amount is so low, I've won nothing for many months. Where would be the best place to put this…

Self employment tax
I have a full time job where I earn over the personal tax allowance so am a tax payer. I did some extra work and earned around £150. I am just about to do my self employment tax but I read that if under £1000 you don't need to pay tax but I couldn't tell if I would fit within this. Do I still need to fill in the tax return…

Hello, I have received a small salary increase this month for the year to Dec 2024 and I was wondering if there is a way to know how much of a real terms increase (or decrease) it is taking into account of inflation for the year to Dec 2024. As part of this question, which rate of inflation would be appropriate to…

I am currently on a career break and I am looking for ways to bring in some money while I undertake some training courses that will hopefully help me pivot into a new sector.

Christmas bonus for pensioners.
I think it has been £10 since 1972. I wonder how much it would be if inflation was applied. Over 80s have also had an extra 25p per week from about the same date.Anybody care to work out the values today?

Shopmium not paying out
Since Shopmium changed their payment system, and you now have to earn £10 before they send to your PayPal................I have been told the money has been sent, but have received nothing. And I see on their facebook page that other people also haven't received their money.

Topcashback and apps
I recently brought some clothing from M&S through the Topcashback web site. When it took me to M&S it opened up the M&S app I have installed. Since buying the clothes I have had no cashback shown as pending. I contacted TCB after 7 days and they say they will wait until late December before chasing it up! On their website…

Complete novice at this
Good evening, I have recently lost my job (no pay off) and of course trying to get a new one every day but there's only so much searching you can do and therefore I have spare time to try anything and everything online for some spare cash in the lead up to Xmas. It doesn't matter how small the return really I will give it…

Best platform for granfluencers
I need to make some money, but at 76 I'm hesitant about trying to go out and get a job. Now I've heard about granfluencers, older people making money on social media. I realise this is not an easy route to take and it may take some time to earn any money, but I want to give it a go. I signed up for Tiktok last week and…

need to sell kids annuals from 50s 60s and 70s
seen a lot of these in flea markets and book dealers for £3 and £4 and upwards. Vinted no good as no ISBN. Might go to a good bookseller near me unless someone knows of a better way. Rather not go down the ebay or abebooks route unless someone says it's a really good idea

Topcashback and Quidco 'Premium' membership
Sorry if this is in the wrong section, not sure where else to put it. Earlier this year, I thought that I'd give the cashback websites a try, to see what they were like and ended up joining both Topcashback and Quidco. So far, I've bought a boiler, a few bits of DIY material and some toothpaste (I'm not the main shopper in…

Tips for selling late mother's books
I'm clearing out my late mother's house before selling. She had over 1,500 books and used to say that some were worth something so not just to get rid of them! I've tried professional booksellers who have taken about 200, and I'm sending a lot to charity, but there are about 150-200 which I've set aside and as potentially…

How Can I Start Working Remotely as a Developer?
I'm an experienced developer looking to shift to remote work. I really want the flexibility to work from home, but I’m not entirely sure how to make a stable income from coding alone. My English is decent but not fluent, so ideally, I’d love to find opportunities that don’t require a high level of English. I have a few…

Contacting Maximiles
After foolishly doing a very long 180 min survey split into 3 60 minute parts. The survey glitched at 40 minutes into the second part. And unable to re-enter it again, only start from scratch! Did a complaint via their app with screenshots. Had one reply back asking where was I when completing the survey! Replied and no…
