Tesco Clubcard Pay+ altertnative
It's no surprise that after the Barclays takeover, TescoBank have announced that they are withdrawing this card from April 2026. I have found this card invaluable in places that won't accept cash but can be risky carrying your usual debit card ie. swimming pool, where you leave valuables in a locker. I would like open a…

Section 75 claim for defective laptop repairers won't return?
Hi all, I'd like to understand my options and chances of success for an S75 claim for a faulty laptop. I bought this in August 2024 but it was never right, partly because it was not fit for purpose, probably not because of a defect but because of an inherent design issue, and partly because of a number of manufacturing…

Aqua "service" e-mails
I always turn all marking off as don't need to be spammed. Two emails from Aqua today, one about I can use Google pay another I can use their instalment plans.

Natwest CC Application - Radio Silence?
I submitted an application for a Natwest CC on Sunday, got sent a pre-contract agreement and submitted the Liveness check/documents for Mitek ID verification.

Is there an up-to-date list of how quickly credit card providers will deem you a new customer again?
I'm thinking of closing several credit cards and then reapplying to the same providers in order to take advantage of new customer interest-free deals. Is there an up-to-date list of how quickly the different providers will deem you a new customer? I remember seeing one online years ago, but I can't find it now.

We had a bathroom fitted starting in 2021 and paid with credit card. The merchant messed us around but they finally finished the work in early 2022. By late 2022 defects started to show and we contacted them to fix things but they ignored us. I lodged a section 75 claim in December and (after much back and forth including…
