Suggestion Box
Was talking to my sister today, I sent an MSE link to her recently on advice for young people who want to open a bank account for her son. She is dyslexic and was saying it would be great to get some hints and tips on shopping, banks etc in the form of short videos on tik tok or similar. (She loves tik tok, I have tried to…
How Quickly do mods delete reported posts
I am new to this site, and I accidently posted something that had personel information. Unlike any other threads, you cannot delete or edit your posts if you are new, which is really frustrating because I am sure I am not the first person to do this. I have reported the posts, but still on there. Now I am stressed because…
Can't post on my Kindle any more
I suddenly find I can't post on my Kindle which is where I do 90% of my posts. The new box shows the ?symbol at the bottom inside the box and not to the left. I type a letter and space and it vanishes, word and the box so a double whammy. Even trying to just put the word 'test' and hit post and it all vanishes, text and…
Trouble quoting
I've never been on a forum before where I've had such trouble quoting another post. I'm trying to reply to someone now & twice I've quoted them but I've ended up inside their post and this forum doesn't let me get out of their quote & type underneath. To get round it I then have to highlight all of their quote, delete the…

Bookmarks issue on mobile browsers
Both the Notifications and Bookmarks tabs on a mobile browser have always showed the latest 5 threads by default. In the last few days, the Bookmarks tab now defaults to showing 20 threads instead of 5 which makes usability of the Bookmarks tab much worse.(notifications is still 5). Can this setting be changed back to 5…

Can you turn off notifications for specific threads?
If you don't want any notifications for responses on a specific thread but don't mind them on others, can you turn them off for that one thread?

** Solved ** Competitions ending 05/04 seem to have been deleted instead of being moved to Game Over
Comps ending 05/04 seem to have been deleted instead of being moved to Game Over. They have gone from the main Competitions Time but are not in Game Over. I wonder if an error was made in the normal "move to Game Over" process? Please can the team recover them and put them in Game Over Examples:…
How to get back to the start of a thread you've subscribed to?
I'd love to get back to the very beginning of one thread and read all the way through. Can I do that while being signed in? Can I only go back one page at a time- there are 145 in this particular thread. Thanks Humdinger

Forum Ambassadors
Can we have a link (sticky) at the top of each section with the Forum Ambassadors for that section. To make it easy for people to contact them, when posts are in the wrong section, or need deleting? Would help a lot 👍
How do you reply to a particular reply
How do you reply to someone, there is no reply button, only a quote link. When I use the the quote link , it says, you can't post links, because there is links in the quote.
Any change on the notification problem - unsubscribe from one thread
I have this option turned on, as I wish to see when people reply to a thread I have contributed to: However I once contributed to a thread that is going on forever, will probably never end and is now of no interest to me (For info it's Land Registry questions on the House buying board). Is there really no way to stop…
The forums are hidden?
I want to post a question about broadband. I come to the website and click forums and get taken to this link: https://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/ There's no broadband or any other categories anywhere to be seen. I know it exists with many other sub categories! So I have to do a google search for 'MSE broadband forums' to…
Is MSE App now available or is it a scam?
I saw an advert on social media for the Money Saving Expert phone App with Martin's face etc. Low and behold it does exist in Google Play, even stating it is made by MonerSavingExpert.com, but searching the forum, all I find is "when will there be an app?" which makes me wonder if this is a scam or not - please advise as…
Discussions
This isn't really an issue, but an explanation would be good. I have only ever started one 'discussion' but according to my user profile I've started 3? The only thing I can think of is that I know I have reported 2 posts for containing personal information/in the wrong forum. As I say, I'm just curious.
Notifications
Why am I receiving notifications for topics that I’ve not taken any part in? I’ve had a look at my settings and should only receive notices for items I’ve posted on
