    Me too. It seems recipients from the 4th are biting the pillow here big time.:eek:

    I've bitten my pillow that much it looks like a puppy's chew toy! :eek:

  • Nothing for me yet either. Not at all stressed. Fixed term with a long, long way to run, so leaving it where it is (was always intended to be) and I suspect I'll never get 7% in the next three years. Guess they're leaving the longest term deals 'til last. Very happy that FSCS has rescued, perhaps even improved, my situation. Congrats to those who've received their dough, patience to those who haven't. We're all older and wiser now, I think, but what a learning curve!!

    nothing here. first email arrived on the 4th around 19.00 waiting for the email and checking all the time is more stressful than the last month put together
  • Hopefully this will be of help to Shindigger and others: I had my 1st email 20:15 4/11, my 2nd 13:30 13/11 and the 3rd 00:05 14/11, so I don't think time for the first email makes any difference, sorry.

    I agree absolutely, I am so glad people post here to say they are suffering with stress over this as it helps others who are experiencing the same thing, when one realises that others are going through this too it does help. :)

    Won't it be lovely to get this blasted email and be able to get back to our normal lives, people who got theirs early on really do not understand how it 'eats away' at us, we try to forget about it but it is always at the back of our minds.

    I agree with you nilrem. I don't cope with stress very well so at times I've felt guilty of perhaps over-reacting to this situation somewhat so it does make me feel better knowing that I'm not alone with all this, although I don't feel particularly good that others are also feeling the effects of all this stress :o

    One light at the end of the tunnel, as each day passes the odds on getting an email get better, if we assume Monday as day one for payments I reckon the odds were about 1 in 20 of receiving one, today it's around 1 in 14, by 28th Nov the odds will be a certainty unless of course any of us are the forgotten ones then we have to wait until Dec 4th to complain! :eek:

    Disclaimer the figures above are not guaranteed to be accurate, they are based on my limited mathematical prowess, I would be happy for any expert to post more likely figures. :)

    still nothing. I don't think I've ever logged on to my e-mails quite so often per day; you don't think I've worn it out do you? On second thoughts, no, but I really wish Thompson and Morgan wouldn't keep sending me quite so many messages, offering me Christmas bulbs or seeds for next year.

    OMG I do hope people don't think I meant it that way, if they did I am really sorry, :oI just meant one does not feel so isolated. Being as thick as a really thick board I am not very good at putting in words what I feel, it often gets me in to trouble!:eek:
