Really & what "digital" records do you have ?dannyboycey wrote: »Paper records? I don't want to alarm you, but it's the 21st century! In many cases, digital records hold just as much sway as paper ones, if not more.
How would you supply it to a bank, government & court so that it was admissable in a Court of Law ?
So what it's 21st century, why do you think Cash is still used ??
Why do you think in times of crisis people start buying Gold.

Britain has declared war on Iceland over the Icesave accounts, for £not honouring its obligations.
Just like the fishing cod war, Iceland will win.0 -
Yes, less than £50k
Yes, I saw Darling Alistair say this on GMTV at 8am.Good news,
I saw on the web that the goverment are going to back the whole £50K.
Called the FSCS and they have confirmed that is now happening if iceland default on the first 20K euro's. Good news for all and great news for people with under £16K in.
I am very relieved but still upset for those with more to loose.0 -

You could easily be accused of altering it - increasing your balance level, on a simple screenshot.
Live video-recording, showing you browse page-to-page, seeing security certificate, is much better proof in my opinion.0 -

A guy on HPC is worried that might be the case for his account. He logs in but nothing coming up for his account.
Using this video recording software, for all the 5 minutes it takes to download and install, and then video record a file, might save you a lot of panic if that happens to your Icesave account, or problems hit another financial group.0 -
Hi, Martin’s asked me to post this in these circumstances: I’ve asked Board Guides to move threads if they’ll receive a better response elsewhere (please see this rule) so this post/thread has been moved to the savings and investments board, where it should get more replies. If you have any questions about this policy please email !!!!!!.0

Yes, less than £50kIt was getting quite a lot of replies where it was!...much enquiry having been made concerning a gentleman, who had quitted a company where Johnson was, and no information being obtained; at last Johnson observed, that 'he did not care to speak ill of any man behind his back, but he believed the gentleman was an attorney'.0
