Almost 9k from a PPI reclaim from HSBC, plus other incidental savings.

tgroom57

Over £500 claiming for the cost of cleaning uniform, because this triggered a tax refund I'd missed from the previous 6 years.
Wins on competitions : approx £1,500 in goods not cash.

Enough to buy a house returned from HMRC (IHT) thanks to suggestions made on the forums!

catmonkey85

About £2k over the years on insurance policies, £185 for bank switching, plus about £15k on my mortgage as I'd never have know that you can overpay and save thousands in interest!

VoucherMan

Difficult to say but I'm guessing £10k+. By the time the mortgage is finished it may well be over £25000.

But what about all those bargains we get thanks to MSE. The reduced from £99 to £7.50 type. Would that count as a £91.50 saving or a £7.50 loss. I'd never have bought it if it hadn't been reduced in the first place.

LessThanFlake

Thanks to matched betting... easily over £25,000.

Think Mr Lewis will have to rethink this survey as he will be in a very Big Minus Situ when you consider all the money Lost through Crown Currency on the recommendation of Mr Lewis - Just a few Million

Voted "Nothing" as that's closest to the real figure for me!!

Had saved a tidy sum until October 2010 when CCE collapsed - still trying to re-coup the loss. Come to think of it, what about a poll to show how much people have lost - I heard of one poor soul who lost over £100k!!!
