Wayhay I have had a result! My Mum used to work for M&S and had some employee shares. When she died they passed to my brother and I. After I got married and changed name, the paperwork got lost, I couldn't bank the dividend chqs for £0.23p because no account in our joint names and to be honest, 23p was nothing to me then.
I recently dug about and found out who to speak to about the shares. Wrote and got them sorted out. Just received a cheque for £297.50 :T Have transferred half to my brother so now got £148.75 for holiday fund
Off to update sig now.

Wow, congratulations Naomin! What a great little find. I'm still sitting here waiting back on a tax rebate that I can plough towards my cc's, so it's gratifying to see others getting along with that kind of thing too.
This week it's £1.80 for me. Payday next week, and a bit worried about keeping the bank balance in the black. Hopefully will have some extra pennies left at the end of next week to sort out some more old spending!
Keep it up guys, we're doing so well!0 -
My shiny £2 pot collection has hit £80 so I have another £20 to bank and transfer to the cc.
I can't believe I managed so much this year just by not spending these £2 coins.
