    visited a & l last friday the adviser said i was finacially savvy and said only thing he could offer me that he thought was ok for me was a maxi ISA.

    I've taken the booklets home and decided to buy one run by L&G

    £50 a month till april and get another 6 x £50 = £300 + a free £50 thats an instant 16.6% interest plus what ever the maxi isa makes tax free

    Maxi ISA's don't earn interest.
    Conjugating the verb 'to be":
    -o I am humble -o You are attention seeking -o She is Nadine Dorries
  • First Direct gave me £20 for a similar thing, then never phoned me, so easiest £20 I ever earnt.... now happily in my ICICI account!

    The free £50 I am meaning
  • I have just received correspondance from L & C who will be looking at our re-mortgage. Attached was a referral form asking to names/emails & tel no.s of people who would be interested in using their services. Should anyone accept L & C then I would receive either £15 M & S voucher or a free bottle of champagne or could choose the 'green' opton and have a tree planted. I know what I would prefer. If anyone is interested in looking at a mortgage reveiw - no fee's, L & C was in last weeks MSE newsletter - pm me and then I can add your details - hopefully after you have spoken to them you will receive this offer too!:j

    hiya,

    Well, I applied online for a call back and arranged appointment.
    I went in with my passport etc and did the interview. I was then informed
    that I would only qualify if I went in for a "full" review, which is what I thought I had originally signed up for!

    They really don't make it easy :-(

    Is there any way I can get them to give me the dough?

    cheers,

    yogi

    Only thing you could do is write to someone high up either Chairman or a director.
