so you still have the R85 forms on all of your savings - I've been dithering about this but I think I am going to do it with all of mine anyway.
Its the annual savers that you have to renew every year that are annoying - having to set up the new SO and a new R85

Yes.I don't pay tax on any of them but most of them are in fixed rate isa's anyway.

I have only two bank accounts though because I discussed it with the executors of my will and they didn't want me to make it too complicated:rotfl::rotfl:

You need a password manager

I started off with the free version

but then because I am subscribed to numerous websites I went on to get the Roborm everywhere which has an annual payment - I have it on my phone and ipad for the odd time I am away but need to check something - these are passnumber protected so I only have one number to remember instead of dozens

Mainly I use it on the main computer and anything sensitive has an additional secure code

I use LastPass free version (there is a premium version too but not paying ).

Thanks I'll have a looksie. Probably going to make a list of all the things I have as I can't even remember what I do have let alone the details. hence getting caught out with Barclaycard.

I've had a look at the website and you can still print R85 forms so that's what I am going to do, print a couple off for the renewed accounts and then complete and pop them in the post and then another for TSB in September and then drop it off when that renews

sadly the ISAs are paying 1.3% at best :mad: - otherwise I would have a very neat set of finances but instead they are all over the place

mhoc.....from April 6th interest on non-isa savings is paid tax free, so you do not need to fill in a R85. According to this link from Nationwide, they state the R85 is obsolete.
