    Daily Mail?! Is it safe to read that piece? It doesn't go on to say the other 190,000 of us are doomed, does it? :cheesy:

    This goes against earlier claims of 10,000 emails per day, which seemed more viable given the timescale. Probably just the Mail getting confused.

    Lets all hope so - otherwise its going to take 20 weeks to do all 200,000 customers

  • Maybe I've just being stupid, but could it be possible that MrsMillar's surname is Millar? No?:rolleyes:

    How fun to be part of a conspiracy!!!!

    I really am not sure there's a pattern - it may be truly random. However, since someone asked: surname begins with E, I had Easy Access (about 5K), ISA (3.6K) and fixed rate till next June/July (about 20K which I'm leaving).

    I have family members (same surname) that have not yet received their second emails. I opened my first Icesave account not long after they launched, whereas they opened much more recently. Don't know if there's anything in that..........

    So much for the above - one of them just phoned to say 2nd email received - account only opened in Aug!

    For me:
    1 = 04/11/2008 at 21:31
    2 = 11/11/2008 at 16:12
    3 = Evening of 11/11/2008
    4 = Friday 14th - yey!!

    Strangely my wife and myself both received our e-mails (1st and 2nd) at exactly the same time to the minute, we don't have joint accounts, so there is no way of linking us, so I can only assume that they have done it by one of:

    -name
    -address
    -date account opened (we opened at exactly the same time)
  • Update:

    1 = 04/11/2008 at 20:20

    3 = Evening of 12/11/2008
    4 = Morning of 17/11/2008, two payments received under reference "FSCS"

    1 = 04/11 @ 20.11
    2 = 12/11 @ 14.33
    3 = 13/11 @ 13.02
    4 = 17/11 - THIS MORNING (17/11)

    I am still very impressed with the way thais has been handled

    4 = 18/11/2008

    Was starting to get paranoid as others who had made their claims around the same time as me or after me had there money a couple of days earlier. But it arrived eventually. I also am impressed - yes it's good to be one of the lucky "early" ones for payment, but I can't help thinking about what the alternative might have been.
