    Crown looking very grim. People lost upto £10K :( Used them a number of times and actually checked rates a few days ago with the intention of buying if they were over $1.6.

    Who was the Crown competitor who wrote an article a year or so ago about why you should use an FSA regulated forex co who segregates their client funds?

    I think it was Caxton:

    I do find it very sad reading some of the stories of people who are out money - here and on the main thread about it...it's just awful.
    Does remembering a time that a certain degree of personal responsibility was more or less standard means that I am officially old?

    I can imagine how it must feel for someone who has lost all of their spending money with no way of replacing it. truly awful

    I think I should stop posting on the other thread though

    Restaurant.com alert.....

    New month started this morning and stripburger certs are available. Just got a $25 voucher using the gift certificate trick.

    That should help me save a few quid against the 600 I will lose in the CCE mess:mad:

    I had the butterscotch milkshake when I went last month mmmm, they just introduced a Chocolate and peanut butter special milkshake which I think Ferf is going to try.

    Hope you get sorted with CCE, not looking good though
