    Tenancy agreement signed, BT informed, ditto with Sky, mail redirection completed. Now I just need to hand over a large chunk of cash, and on 17th April I get the keys!!! :cool:

    Oh and in my mad paperwork tidy up over the last weekend, I somehow managed to mislay the DLA tribunal letter, so had to phone them and ask the to send me another one :o

    No news from Sainsburys - mind you, I only sent the application back on Sunday :rotfl:

    Wow another move! That is so stressful and takes so much energy! Good for you. I hope you are able to stay put in this new house for a while.

  • Hi Merry,

    I was BR yesterday and opened a Yorkshire Bank Internet Saver Account online today and it was accepted straight away and I have an account number and a link card, I was able to transfer money straight away from CO-Op into the new account. I hope it helps.

    Thanks Restofmylife, I am testing the waters as it were - now I'm discharged, I want a savings account hence trying with Sainsburys. Will look into Yorkshire if things don't work out. :beer:

    Am really hoping this one will be longer term - the LL wants to do six months to 'see how things go' but he knows I want somewhere long term. If this one doesn't last past six months, I will hopefully be in a better position to insist on at least a year's lease with the next one as discharged, etc :confused:
