Anyone with British Friendly Society and having end loyalty bonus declined?
After 40 years they denied my end bonus in April 2025 so as to bolster their coffers (sitting at 198% of legal requirement already) and at a time of great success for the society. This is pretty outrageous. I therefore decided to defer taking my savings out hoping they would reinstate it for 2025. But they haven't - they…

Beware Goodtogo Travel Insurance – A painful lesson after medical emergency abroad
We learned the hard way that an “Excellent” Trustpilot score doesn’t mean much when you’re stranded overseas and relying on your insurer.

Don't understand how this is an At Fault Claim, and why Insurance didn't try to recover costs (Car)
This claim was in 2023, but it still significantly impacts my insurance costs. This is partly because there was another separate act of vandalism, stealing my driver's side mirror unit just before Christmas, presumably to sell. They were not caught, and I had to claim for that in the same year as below (it was a few months…
