    Santander/Abbey is playing up again - is anyone else having the same problem?

    EE

    Those idiots have been playing me up for years. I've gradually switched stuff away from them. The only things left with them are the things where it would be a major inconvenience to shift.
    I hope things work out OK healthwise.

    A little giggle that may cheer you up - and perhaps some of the other readers.
    I've just got back from late shopping at Tescos. I do it late to get good deals on the perishables. I have a friend who has a bit of trouble getting around at times so I take him down there maybe once a month and we removes some bargains from their shelves. Anyway, tonight I saw a trolley at the end of the row stacked up with yellow labels and I just thought how convenient it was now that they are putting the deals in trollies. So my friend and I started loading our trollies up from it. Then along came some guy looking for his trolley LOL. I'm glad he had a good sense of humour. So we gave him back his bargains. He even gave me a cheap loaf for my trouble.
    A few other people saw what happened too. It lightened up an evenings shopping for everyone :D

    EE

    I'm finding that I can get to the lead page OK but when I click on the link to log-in, it's just not going there.
    Is that the issue you are having too.
    I don't know if you've ever made a bill payment during the night from your Santander account, but sometimes they just disappear into the ether. At least the money doesn't get removed either though. Also, when I receive payments by bank transfer into my Santander business account, they won't supply the reference number - leaving me to guess which customer has paid. I now receive bank transfers into a Co-op business account because of this.

    Glad your relative is doing ok EE.

    Sorry I'm a bit hit and miss with posting these days - but new job taking up a lot of time & brainpower!


    Received an unexpected cheque of £324.23 from an underpayment of a policy I cashed in 4 years ago!:j ... I only took it out to bag the shares when they demutualised! (those wre the days.. when I had a bit of spare cash to invest!)

    So PADS for yesterday & today = £100. 21
