    wow, it had to happen sooner or later. a sad day for people with Egg Money. a happy day for me since I don't have one and I am jealous :D

I'm going to take myself off the electoral role like I should of done ages ago and move to the Caribean. I already brought my plane ticket, all be it a refundable 1.

    Sad day for me as I only found out a couple of months ago that it paid 4 % ... and I've had the card for years ... typical of my luck!

    In addition:
    Cash advance fees
    From 15 May 2009 cash advance fees will apply.
    So not much point in having a positive balance anyway.
    Conjugating the verb 'to be":
    -o I am humble -o You are attention seeking -o She is Nadine Dorries

    Just want to double check if anyone else did not receive this e-mail on 15th April 2009? I only received the Important changes to your Egg Money account‏ one on 15th April 2009.

    I have never exceeded my mailbox quota and I have searched through the junk mail folder... weird! I've never had this kind of problem since I opened my account back in 2003.... Is there a way I can check if Egg has missed my email address out by mistake? Is there anything I can do to prove an email was not sent to me?

    Hmm.. sounds stupid but I can't see any text that refer to the reduction of credit interest rates or in fact changes from 15th May when I log on....

    I typed new.egg.com/youraccounts into my Internet Explorer to log on and there is no 'welcome page' or any banner/boxes at the side that alert me to the changes....

    Is my experience strange?!

    oh or do you mean the general changes to the terms and conditions? I can see that from the link in the 15th April 2009 Important changes to your Egg Money account email... sorry.

    But yeah, going back to my point- I was never told about the 4% to 0.5% interest reduction on 15th April!! very annoying :mad:
