    I don't usually come on this thread - usually Mouseann's 'Frightened about my future' thread and the UE thread, so I know how much help and support Niddy gave everyone.

    Perhaps MSE have been a little too lax up to now in dealing with trolls/abuse.

    I totally 100% agree with you. I'll try and persuade him to stay via text. I dowt it, but I'll try.

    I think MSE have been far too lax, I've reported that aron time and time again, nothing was done. And last nights debacle well.......that was just ridiculous what happened to seeya, unacceptable. It should of been dealt with alot quicker.

    I agree with you there Sutton. I kept checking back until nearly 2am to see if those disgusting threads had been removed and they hadn't and I'd reported that troll too. Pretty disappointing all round.

    Exactly. Over 4 hours those threads were up. Imagine how seeya feels after seeing that, and with so many people complaining nothing was done. Every post I reported.

    Exactly, and my post criticising the registration system and saying there should be more ID checks has been deleted, yet all those posts by that numpty stayed online for ages....

    That's a lot of posts deleted. Too late to save face of the forum but better than never I suppose.

    So, IP screening going to be implemented?

    I want to switch my HSBC account to a student account, but I've been using it for matched betting for the last 3 months and it's had about 3k go through it from betting sites. Is HSBC likely to say no as a result of this?

    Surprised it's not already tbh, but the same fools manage to get on time after time so I presume not....

    I think the ID method is more effective than using IP blocks, certainly in my experience with other sites, but I can't see it being implemented...

    Which HSBC account do you have now? If you have a full current account maybe it's better to try and do it manually (phone up rather than go online). If you don't have a full current account as it is it could be an issue. But then I have a Halifax Easycash account and they don't count towards any credit score (in a positive or negative way) - It's only if I appeal and an underwriter looks at my account they'd probably say no, but in terms of automated decision making accounts which aren't full accounts don't make a difference.

    I am trying to take advantage of the current Santander offer of £100 if you switch accounts, does anyone know what their credit scroing is like, i.e easy/medium/hard?

    thanks
