Hi I ve just checked and yesssss it's there. One less money pay back to concern myself about busy chasing up the £100 referral bonus for solar panels now.

Do I or do I not go for this Yorkshire Bank deal now. I don't mind closing the M & S one now as I had my £125 gift voucher a while ago. I hardly shop in M & S let alone bank with them.

Do you know the criteria for this please or haven t you done it .:)

I would say go for it!

I'm currently waiting for the £150. You don't need any DD/SO's, the only thing is you have to transfer at least £1000 into the account after your switch has completed.

I've just done this part, so waiting for the dosh now.

t&c's here:

Criteria for Yorkshire? At least half an hour of your life that you won't get back ... most torturous process over the phone with them reading out everything (that you would probably skip online - it is a current account, what more do you need to know?). Monthly funding of £1000 if I recall and need to use their switching service to close an existing account, don't think it needs DDs to switch but worth having some to give them something to switch .

There are suggestions on Stoozing (and an MSE thread I believe) that following a recent rule change you can get up to 6 Yorkshire or Clydesdale accounts each qualifying for the £150 switch. Haven't tried it yet as still waiting for the first to go through.

Can't join in on the choc's glitch. Promised OH I wouldn't buy any more choc's after stocking up from Staples and Superdrug. But free / paid to take it away Choc's... It's worth the argument right :rotfl:

Definitely worth the argument:rotfl:

well that's because the 50% off reductions were replaced by 75% reductions today

Well yes Aau I gathered that but was just saying. Don't intend to go to Chester again to buy another one for 75 p lol . I had two £8 off a £40 spend vouchers to use so did them both yesterday. Hell of a job finding suitable bargains though as that's another dear shop.:p

I wish someone would eventually win it.

How do we win this thing? Is this something that you organise? I haven't seen you giving my address yet, not that I've seen every post you've made and it might take another 1.7 million months (or however often you do this lottery) before I win.:(:rotfl:

My experience has been smooth. About 25 mins on initial account opening phone call, then I received everything as expected and they have kept me informed by letter every step of the way.

Emerald, don't snooze and lose!

Wonder if the 75% reductions might be replaced by 90% ones:D. I perhaps should mention, in M (not that we can shop anywhere else, actually the 'buy in M' part of the list is still relevant), they have had the Beauticology gift sets knocked down. I think they were £2.25 before, but I didn't mention them - perhaps because I felt that was too high - but are now, I think, £1.48. Again I've not been concentrating:rotfl: but, not even on buy in M now, as still thinking it's too high. They are 'only' small sets. There are some larger sets, e.g. Old Spice sets, at £2.48 (I think) but, again, not that I'd even pay that much. Also quite a few Pyrex and other kitchenware equipment on red-bordered label pricing (which doesn't necessarily mean it is any good;)). I saw what looked like a 'good' price on a roaster tray - but then it turned out the tray wasn't that big at all. The bigger tray was a bit higher - at £3 - but similar trays of about the same size have been £3 in A anyway (probably a muggle's price:laugh:), so why bother with anything?:rotfl: The pricing doesn't seem too out of the ordinary to me:rotfl::rotfl:.

Oops, I'm now getting to posting nearly every other post, so it's too much and I'll leave you now folks (I have seen the Toblerone, many thanks:T - but :rotfl: even there, I'm thinking vs 75p:eek: for 400g when S/P Choc Bars are 30p (300g) - seems still a bit steep to me:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:). Goodbye for now - and enjoy the rest of the day, if enjoyment is realistically available to you and, if not, many hugs (if you want them and don't wish to be left alone rather than less bothered if hugs would have been more interfering - gosh I'm getting into difficulties wording all this in a way that will help or otherwise alleviate everybody...:rotfl:).

I may be wrong but did not go through MSE so only £100 as had to do it over the phone and my point was its not worth the stress/hassle when already clicking loads :cool:

You are probably right, its not worth a lot of hassle with them. I can't remember if I followed the MSE link or not - I probably did but I can't prove it now. It was just annoying me that it was their own staff that insisted to me that we would get £125 not £100 because it had gone up. I felt that, having told me that, they should abide by it even if it was their mistake.

Oh. Hello again everyone. W don't have any equivalents of those items, so it should be all N/A on that shop. If that's the case regarding M though, it does suggest that they haven't done a price collection and that the info. they have is now over 7 days old. So - no M comp. shops until further notice!:( It looks like they haven't done a price collection on Christmas Eve or yesterday - there was nothing to say they weren't doing any but perhaps they didn't. Do you know what? Unless anyone comes up with any results (other than N/A) vs M later on today, I'm not going to bother with a price collection tomorrow as there's no point. It looks like the next one is on 5th January, so that it's expected that everything will be N/A vs M between now and 6th, possibly 7th, of January. Hurray, at least it gives me some more time:). If anyone does have any prices at all for M return on the APG (from shops done from today), do post and let us know - otherwise I'm not bothering and APG is now only comparing vs T, S and W.

Thinking this is nearly a year, since it was expected that M would go online and that price collections wouldn't be needed anymore. After a short while, I found online to be so unreliable and with so much missing that I went back to price collections and have been at it ever since. I don't know what T PP is doing at the moment regarding M, and I'm not bothering with it just for T PP (I suspect my Wednesday collection is out of sync with T PP anyway) - in at least one past year, T PP went completely N/A vs M even before the APG did. Outside of the holiday period, this is one area where, for once, I agree with T on this: "Morrisons – We use an Independent agency to visit Morrisons’ stores twice a week, as this gives us a wider representation of comparable products than is currently available from the Morrisons.Com grocery website". (https://www.tescopricepromise.com/Home/FAQ)

It appears M list is now completely off (not that all of it was on in the first place:D) and not even the old list, with the now crossed-out items included and the bold items removed, works anymore. Whole thing to be frozen until after 6th January:(. No M comp. shops until further notice - and this (unless we see a return of prices pretty sharpish) rules out any over glitch period over the New Year where M would have appeared best. Happy New Year:laugh::).
