Oh, btw, it looks like the Icelanders are also unhappy about how their "government" has handled the financial crisis:

Riots in Reykyavik...sounds almost like a song title...or a Python sketch.

"I predict a riot" by the Kasier Chiefs shame it wasn't the Artic Monkeys, that would have been far more appropriate.

Actually I think the Artic Monkeys must be working for the FSCS, but no one's feeding them any peanuts. I predict a riot. :eek:

Congrats to the couple of you that have received your emails today.... I wish mine would hurry up though! Everytime I read that someone gets an email, I checked my inbox in vain hope, only to be disappointed again.... and again... and again....

You hit the nail on the head! "I predict a riot" could now be our theme tune, as that is exactly what will happen if we don't get that blasted email soon :eek:
As mentioned before, I live in London, so the FSCS HQ is only a tube ride away for me...

It doesn't end with getting your ISA back. No one will let you invest the money until you have got your certificate. I have now waited the two weeks promised and still nothing. The fixed rates are going to be a thing of the past by the time I get it.:eek:

thats what I meant I ve not got my 2nd email yet but OH got hers and money back last week BUT no Isa transfer details yet, so money is just stuck again waiting

Here is an Iceland tip.

Go to your nearest store and buy packet of

"Canadiannsteak" 10 slice @ £1

You can then make delicious hot fried beef
with onion sandwiches like what I have
just had, while checking email inboxes
