ICESAVE refunds: which account(s) do you hold?

~Chameleon~

Apologies for starting yet another poll which will most likely prove inconclusive, but please humour me in this time of deep frustratio whilst we're waiting to receive our second emails

It occured to me earlier that they might possibly be selecting people based on the number and type of accounts we hold, therefore I'd very much like only those people who have already received the second email and initiated the refund process to let us know what accounts they hold please.

I've made this poll anonymous for obvious reasons so no one has to divulge personal details

My money turned up in my bank account this morning. I had an easy access cash ISA, and an easy access savings account.

So sorry, Chameleon, in my enthusiasm I voted in your poll and have not yet received the 2nd email. Please minus 1 from fixed account (1 only) plus easy access.

Consider yourself humoured. I'm one of the "greens".

Interesting results so far and has scuppered my suspicions that they might be making those of us with one or more fixed term accounts wait until the ISA's and Easy Access accs had been paid.

Very small sample but it looks to me like having an ISA helps .

It occurred to me earlier that people with fixed term accounts should be at the back of the queue since their interest is guaranteed, unlike the rest of us. It seems unfair that (a) one set of account holders are able to have interest paid beyond the date of default and then (b) said set of account holders could "claim" (confirm they want to leave their money as it is) up to 3 weeks before people with accounts earning no interest any more.

3 fixed term deposits only, all maturing different months next year. No 2nd email yet.

Not necessarily as I have an ISA too but still not received the 2nd email. Looking at the votes above I can't see that it makes any difference what accounts, or combination of accounts, you hold as to when you can access your money. It was worth a try though so thanks to everyone who's participated :A

This is true, but FSCS explained in an email to me that fixed terms were a contract to pay that interest until a set date in return for no access until that date. Easy access accounts were not such a contract ( I have both)

noh

Looks to be random. I got the second email yesterday. I held one instant access and six fixed term accounts.
