Don't I know it and it is so damned annoying! I just had one from Smile telling me that they are reducing the interest on my six years worth of ISA's to 2.5%!

Well they can stuff it now I am moving it elsewhere I have stuck with them for years but IMHO 2.5% for a cash ISA is taking the mickey!

Oh bugg.. I have my current account there and just re-opened an ISA, I originally moved from Smile to Icesave last April because of better rate. I thought it would be easier to transfer my Icesave ISA back to smile at 4.25% thenmove to a better rate after things settled down a bit, think I'll have to re-assess my options. Savings rate gone down too to 2.25% if you have current Account. Think I'll only be using the current account for forseeable future.

I doubt if anyone would be churlish enough to take offence nilrem - we all owe you a debt of gratitude for starting this thread

Nilrem, a sign of good leadership. Order given and respectfully complied with. Nice one! :cool:

Serously, be careful not to spill anything sweet - it'll short out your motherboard quicker than you can say "where the h*ll's my icesave money?"

There will be no shooting here, Calm down that man! Forty lashes will suffice!:eek::D

As I said I don't want to spoil folks fun but we were getting quite a lot and I imagined the site owners might get a little impatient with us!:eek::D

By a lot I meant images of course not lashes!

Hi all, still no second email from FSCS, so decided to use the withdrawal button on the screw fix site and see what happens.

I don't believe it I am at post 999! when this Icesave fiasco started I was an innocent 'MoneySaving Stalwart' with a few posts to my name!

My next post will be 1000! I had better save it for the big one, that is announcing my *2nd email arrival so I will see you all again on 4th Dec then!:eek:

(*wishful thinking!)

It's gone very quiet, hope I haven't sent everyone away!

Did someone say forty lashes :j oops.

I don't want to start a stampede of new images, but the posted pictures don't actually have an impact on the MSE site. All that's been posted are links to the pictures which means the only things getting 'hit' are the sites hosting the various images. :T

It does however distract somewhat from the subject in hand and may persuade the admin to move the thread to a more 'suitable' section!:eek:

Edit, Sod it I forgot and used up my 1000 post which I was saving for a big one!
