    I agree. With the official updates on the main savings page having become inconsistent at best - even in terms of the FSCS published information - this does appear to be a much more comprehensive and reliable outlet. Moreover - at the moment - it is one which is at very least not visibly fiscally subscribed to by other financial products.

    None of us can afford to be that innocent any longer.

    VERY IMPORTANT

    Sorry to interrupt your thread but.............
    Do you all know about the NEW ICESCAM SITE??
    The web address is: www.icescam.com and it is set up for all ICESAVE customers to get their thoughts out in the open and interact with each other. THE MORE THE MERRIER AND WE ALL NEED TO STICK TOGETHER.

    Why don't you all sign up to it and then it will be so much easier than keep skipping from one forum to another. I already belong to 3 and it's taking so much time trying to keep up.

    Some of you have already signed up and started joining in, the number is growing. Please take a look and register.
    It also has all the latest news regarding our plight.

    I've tried to load that site and it says it doesn't exist. Tried IE7 and FF - nothing. Ah I get it, is that the scam?

    After deleting all the tabloid emotive language, this article says nothing we don't already know from the FSCS website. It actually says a lot less using more words.

    Indeed it is a lazy article and doesn't even mention the interesting thing in the FSCS posting last week was that they were working on an alternative to a form based payout. I can only speculate but perhaps Icesave UK will be unfrozen and either transferred to another entity (such as KE) or we're allowed to operate our accounts to withdraw the funds. That would be quicker and cheaper than having to go through 300000 forms.

    yes I have moved over to

    http://icescam.com/index.php

    suggest all icesavers do the same and support the site as the lack of interest from Martin is very disapointing to say the least.

    Anyone now having problems connecting to the 'Icescam' site itself?
  • Nope I can't get onto the website. "Internet Explorer cannot display the webpage" !! And other people on this site and Moneysupermarket forum are having the same problem. Wonder why!
