MSE car insurance comparison tool won't accept driving licence number
When adding my partner's driving licence details the text box won't let me input the last 2 letters (not the last 2 numbers, I know about that!) and then tells me the number is too short with only 14 characters instead of 16. Never had this issue before, help!

A big thanks to MSE
Just joined the forum to post this thread. A big thank you to Martin and the team. In the last hour I have filled in and sent three car finance complaint emails and switched gas and electricity to a fixed rate package that is cheaper than my current (sorry!) package.

How to find threads I posted on but didn't start?
I had posted on a thread that someone else had started and I promised to update with progress on my ISA transfer but I can't find the thread now. I can bring up a list of my 'posts' but these are only those threads that I started - and anyway, there doesn't seem to be a way to order them eg latest first. How do I find…

Poll: Draft auto-save: keep it on or turn it off?
Hi everyone, When we switched on the new Rich Text Editor recently, we also enabled auto-saving drafts. (Also being discussed in this thread) Some members have told us the current auto-save behaviour is annoying, and a few think it may be contributing to posting issues in certain situations.

Links now open in a new window by default
As of a few days ago, with the forum update. How can I revert this behavior?
