Over the years I have always been able to get more interest elsewhere. But, as they say, every dog has its day. When its day came, I remember saying to myself: "How long is this going to last?" Not very long apparently. I got my deposits in just in time!0

The real thread about this was started at 9:20 ... 2:37 is a bit late!0

I find it weird that this is referred to as a Savings Account. Isn't it, or wasn't it, National Savings Certificates?0

Hi folks, can someone please flag the previous 'clairedavid' post as we've got a member of Monty Python on the forum.
My Outlook is having an 'issue' with doing as it's told.
Much appreciated.

I think "axes" is misleading. Axes infers that the product has been withdrawn permanently and will never return. I don't believe that is the case, they have withdrawn the current issues and not released a replacement. I believe and assume that a new issue will be brought out at some point so the product has not necessarily been axed.
There is a recurring theme on MSE of reporters/contributors posting alarmist and arguably misleading articals. There's no need - tell it like it is! This isn't the Sun!
Martin, can we have less alarmist subject headings please? I know it's been asked before.You've never seen me, but I've been here all along - watching and learning...:cool:0 -
You don't mean Microsoft Network, do you?
But you are absolutely correct, it gets more tabloid by the issue.0 -
