Big Thanks to the members

Hi all

Been a member on this forum for 6months but have noticed that since Christmas a lot of people are moaning about savings/Isa rates etc.

I for one cannot thank you enough for the advice i got from you lot here during 2008 as to cashing in my poor performing endowments, transfering my and the wifes ISA's and savings accounts to nice High 4% and 5.3% instant access fixed for one year jobbies last December.
Mostly Halifax accounts mind you which seems strange but there you go.

I now wait fro this years batch of ISA's but cannot see them getting anywhere near my lock ins.

It just goes to show that popping in to this forum now again can keep you on top of the game.

Thanks again for the advice and protecting my investments for 2009 (at least):rolleyes:

    Ha, you wanna go to the Budgeting and Current Account forum, sooo many people complaining about banks having 0% interest on current accounts and changing overdrafts because they haven't been paid for years.

    *sigh* :confused:
