    Seen this guys?

    http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/business/7727159.stm

    I knew there were problems with new fixed term deposits, but why has this made the news and not the fact that they're still clasping people's money?

    Thanks Joanniepony

    Had a look at the link and was amazed to see this.

    "We did not disable the entire site as this would have stopped all customer transacting capabilities on the site causing considerable inconvenience to the customer base by not allowing them to access their money," said a spokeswoman for the administrators.
    :eek::eek::eek:

    So that didn't happen then?

    Looks as though ING/KE are making a real effort to clear this thing up today. My funds have finally showed up in my account having been chapsed there back on 8 Oct. Hopefully the other people on the list will be sorted today as well.

    Many thanks for the support/advice of those on the list.

    Yes, I thought that was the truly funny part of it all too! Considerable inconvenience? NOOO!
