    Just had a very disappointing phone call to ING. Apparently they are going to put a trace on the payment. I explained that this had already been done, that I had recevied a secure message and a phone call confirming my money had been traced and payment had been made. She just said they would look into it and let me know Monday or Tuesday. Now starting to get very angry.


    How awful!! So near and yet so far!! Hang in there, you still have friends here rooting for you...I know that doesn't put money in your purse, but maybe it helps a little.

    We are pleased to confirm that our team at Kaupthing Edge has managed to clear the backlog of all known outstanding payment transactions. These will arrive in the destination bank accounts on Monday and Tuesday.

    Thank you for your patience.
    That gum you like is coming back in style.
  • BACS transfer initiated on 7 October.
    Got my money back on 31 October.

    Next fight, where's my lost interest?!?!

    BTW, never got any replies from the emails I sent to the list of media companies. However, my email to ING's CEO and head of customers services, produced an email from Alastair Hemmings, basically saying: dont' worry, we got your money and will return it ASAP... and got my savings the following day.
  • Dag - re run on the bank.
    My request was on the 6th for a BACS transfer. I hadn't appreciated the trap shutting was so imminent hence the BACS request. My money was from a redundancy payment I finally got after more than 5 years of wrangling with an Adminstrator. While I knew the money was protected by the UK gov, I obviously wanted to avoid another lengthy delay in getting it. As far as I can see there is no guarantee of how long it would take.

    Looks like the end is in sight for everyone left waiting. Good luck all
  • My cash arrived today too. Huge relief.

    Thanks to all on this thread for their support and guidance.
  • Congratulations to all those who have got their money:beer: :j :j
    far too many to name individually, how long have we been able to say that !!

    Im sure those still waiting will be joyous next week, and Furys list is no more.
    Just have a lovely weekend until then.

    I got this reply from AH after making a few pertinent points about INGS performance, so thank you for taking the trouble to answer my e mail Alastair.

    Thank you for your email.

    We understand a number of customers held Fixed Term Savings accounts with Kaupthing Edge and decided to close these prior to customers and their savings balances being transferred to ING Direct. We did update our website as soon as possible to confirm that these rates would be honoured by ING Direct for the remaining term of the accounts.

    However, we are unable to open any new Kaupthing Edge Fixed Term Savings accounts and so I regret that we cannot re-open any existing Fixed Term Savings accounts or open new Fixed Term Savings accounts for customers who have already applied to close their account.

    We are still working through the remaining backlog of delayed payments and once again apologise for the continued delay which is affecting a small number of customers. When Kaupthing Edge was placed into Administration it meant that all payments in the banking system were stopped and this has caused significant disruption, delays and complexity. Most of the outstanding payments relate to the time just before the company was taken into Administration and are unfortunately taking longer to resolve. Our team at Kaupthing Edge is working over the weekend to clear payments as quickly as possible.

    We appreciate your patience.

    Yours sincerely

    I HOPE TO BE RAISING A GLASS NEXT WEEK TO ALL THE HAVE NOTS !!!!!
