Blackmore Bonds collapse
So the FCA has sat as judge and jury on its own performance and decided that it was not at fault in not warning investors before the Blackmore Bond collapse and they are not due compensation.

Post Office prices.
No wonder they are in trouble my DW has just been charged £4.79 to post a small paperback book to someone. It had to go as a small parcel as she had wrapped it in bubble wrap which made it too thick for a large letter.

What is the Purpose of this Spam Email?
I received a spam message. It was brief, and well written. It did not contain any links to click on or numbers to call. There was a pdf attachment. Google, and my PC said it was malware free so I opened it. It looked like an invoice. Rudimentary but realistic. It wasn't asking for money - there was nowhere to send payment.…
