  • Forgive me if I'm now asking the silly question, but did you check all the pages on your account? Maybe these 4 are simply what appears on the final page.

    From what others have written, you may also find it useful to use different amounts (eg ending .01, .02, .03 and so on) so that you can check that each individual payment is accounted for.

    The only way we can prove we have earned maximum and should be entered in the draw is by submitting copy of bank statement for the savings account, showing the 2 lots of £50 matched funding. There is no other proof??
    Dont think that will prove anything because you could copy paste and doctor your statements. Think Martin would be better giving £100.00 to a nominated charity after all if i was lucky enough to win a extra £100.00 that is what i would suggest and i dont think i will be on my own on this one

    It does take a few days to start running.

    For example even though its ran fine since it started for me, thursday i bumped my lottery account up by 5.01 a couple of times, they didnt show up on my statement till today.
    So much so ive done 58 quid this month already lol.

    Learn from the mistakes of others - you won't live long enough to make them all yourself.

    Since Martin's already excluded wage earners from his competition, I suspect this is what will happen anyway.

    Hi folks

    As for the competition - we'll worry about that when I get there. No sure why i've "excluded wage earners" - no one's told me i've done that!

  • Well he could easily just pick one of the people who state they have the full £100 and then ask for proof (If I was gonna get £100 I'd send statements) and if the person doesn't send / show conclusive proof move on to the next person. Piece of Cake (Chocolate or lemon cake as their the best)

    The most anyone paying income tax will receive off LTSB is £80. Since you require proof of £100 received, to match £100, anyone with a job is not going to be getting entered for the £100.

  • Managed it, the first payment I made was on the 21st of Feb but have managed to get over £50 using only the Egg loophole. Actually this is a fine method of saving, I have over £50 in the Egg savings a/c (never used it for years) and the same in Lloyds(never had a savings a/c til this) and I haven't really noticed the money gone.
