    Stats for payments so far

    16/10 8 payments 8.03-11.35pm
    17/10 206 payments 12.19am- 7.36pm*

    *posting times, not into bank times

    214 payments
    108 non-payments
    = 322 of us*

    *some people received more than 1 payment, some received 1 but are still waiting for others

    = 66.5% paid
    = 33.5% not paid

    Just hope ours really are stuck in the pipeline to our receiving banks and will miraculously appear tomorrow. I just don't want to be the last, as I really will cry.

    Now feeling tired, depressed and generally frazzled.

    If you scale those figures up, there are over 53,000 people still waiting for payments in the UK. I don’t mind being last, providing I get my money.
  • Dutch prepare to pump $12 billion into ING: report

    http://www.reuters.com/article/ousiv/idUSTRE49I1CB20081019?sp=true

    LONDON/AMSTERDAM (Reuters) - Dutch financial group ING is in talks with the Dutch government about a state-backed cash injection estimated to be worth up to 9 billion euros ($12.12 billion), the Sunday Times reported.
    The Netherlands' biggest listed bank, which said on Friday that it was about to announce its first-ever quarterly loss, is expected to announce a deal in the next 24 hours, the paper reported.
    ING's Chief Executive Michel Tilmant was in talks with the Dutch central bank all day yesterday negotiating a deal, the Sunday Times said.
    Dutch public broadcaster NOS also reported that ING was working on a plan over the weekend to boost its capital position and that details could emerge on Sunday.
    ING declined to comment on the reports on Sunday. A spokesman for the firm said on Saturday that ING was considering several options to shore up its capital position, including taking government money.
    The Dutch Finance Ministry and Dutch central bank declined to comment.
    As governments around the world have waded in with billions of dollars of state cash to help stabilize their banks, the Dutch government has set aside 20 billion euros to pump capital into its financial institutions.
    ING said on Friday it expected to post a net loss of about 500 million euros ($674 million) for the third quarter, its first quarterly loss since the group was formed in 1991. That sent its shares to a 13-year low.
    ING's results had initially proven to be more resilient through the credit crisis than many of its peers, such as Belgian-Dutch rival Fortis, which was broken up earlier this month, partly nationalized by the Dutch government and partly sold off to French rival BNP Paribas.
    If ING were to make use of the Dutch government program, it would follow similar steps taken by several British and Swiss banks this week that also tapped emergency funding lifelines from their respective governments.

  • A BACS from the 7th and one from the 10th came through Friday. I'm still missing a CHAPS from the 9th though. Oddly enough the two BACS came through as CHAPS but it's the CHAPS that's missing........

    At least there's some progress though. Fingers crossed for tomorrow!
  • well im late with my payments on all sorts now, if they dont square up midday Monday, im going to ask my solicitor to ask for all additional costs.... I dont care how much of a problem the moeny markets are in, they dont use my money to keep the rich rich. The mattress is the best place for many things.

    Just been reading all the back pages since I logged off yesterday... appears to me Oblivion (you know ... the fat cat one) who posts his savings portfolio, who used to work in the finance sector all his life, "could" have made that portfolio from "those overpaid bankers bonuses, and bankers taking unneccessary risks", that " everyone seems to be blaming part of this crisis on??

    Hi zaphod beeblebrox,

    Sadly I am still yet to receive my money, CHAPS payment made on 7th October at approx 7:40pm for just over £7k.

    I must admit, when I started the thread I didnt really expect 4700 replies and 200,000 views. I seem to have created a monster!

    Ive not posted too much on the thread but I have read most of it, its great to have other people in the same boat as me, makes it much easier to stay calm knowing that others are in the same position, so thanks to everyone for their help!

    pmorrison

    Yeah, thanks for starting the thread. Well done. :beer:
