Hargreaves Lansdown
Anyone with an account with Hargreaves Lansdown on here? If so, do you keep any record of how much you have in it? I tried to do a screenshot a few years ago every few months but that doesn't really mean anything in terms of proof of how much you have in your account should anything ever happens and you can't access your…

Premium Bonds after a death
We lost Mum in August and kept her PB’s going until we got the grant of probate. She won £25 in November but NS&I won’t pay the estate as she’d signed a mandate to re-invest and purchase bonds with her winnings. They say that bond is void as you can’t purchase more bonds after death. Surely they should then pay the £25 to…

I’ve been looking for a good high-interest easy-access savings account and noticed that Revolut is offering around 4.50%. https://i.postimg.cc/5t9RmxNp/IMG-6946.png However, I couldn’t see Revolut in your popular website’s (moneysavingexpert, becleverwithyourcash etc) list of top savings accounts — is there a reason for…

Cash ISAs vs standard savings accounts
I remember a few years back Cash ISA savings rates were almost always lower than standard savings accounts. Now it appears to me that they are broadly similar. Does anyone else agree with this, and is this equivalence likely to continue now that rates are falling.

Tax Confusion
Hi, I received a letter last month from HMRC stating I owed £250 in tax from 2024 - 2025. This does work out to be correct from interest I have earned on savings. I paid it straight away to avoid a tax code change. However, HMRC have sent me another letter via a tax code change for the 2025 - 2026 tax year saying they are…

Tax on savings for non earner £18570 v. £19000
I understand the first £12570 is tax free, then the starting rate for savings +£5000 then the PSA +£1000 ...giving total of £18,570 (on the basis no other income at all) How is this impacted if the interest was say £19000 Is the top part above 18570 simply taxed at basic rate....? At this threshold is it ever worth putting…

Cash ISAs - have I been missing out?
I have had a Stocks and Shares ISA but haven't put anything into it for at least four or five years. I also have cash savings of about £80,000 which are spread across four different savings accounts. I think I misunderstood the rules and thought that because I had more than £20,000 in my stocks and shares ISA I couldn't…

Making the most of my saving
Hi, I'm 45 and have made the decision to move into my parents house for 3 years to get out of the rental market and actually get myself financially sorted. I'm on a pretty good wage now but due to rent, costs, a ridiculous amount of university etc I've always rented, been in and out of debt and never been able to save. So…

Savings Interest and Tax Code change
My tax code has been changed this month. Looking at it there is an assumed amount of interest they have figured for me, which is way off at £2,500. It will be much closer to £1,000. They wrongly assumed £2,500 which puts me into the 40% bracket which reduces my PSA of course. Do I call HMRC this year/now or does this…

Investment Trusts
I am looking for a fund that will pay out income. Most Equity income funds only payout twice a year, but it seems investment trusts pay out 6 times per year, which would be better for me. However, I have always thought that ITs are more expensive due to the extra layer of management. Am I thinking wrong? Can anyone point…

BBSI Untaxed interest list query
Hi All, My requested list for 23-24 and 24-25 contains so many errors I really don't know where to start or who to approach first. I requested the list because I was shocked at the interest they claimed I earned 24-25 On looking at the list I'm finding yes they have estimated based on the previous tax year as expected, BUT…
