Do you have second thoughts about sharing your advice nowadays?

Do you now have second thoughts about sharing info in case it impacts you?

No, and if I was concerned, I wouldn't belong to this forum as there wouldn't be much point

It was suggested that Tesco tightened its rules for interest on a current account because too many were 'passing the word', but, in fact, just before temporarily closing to applications Tesco had peak time ads about its 3% promise .

ATEOTD i think banks surely can't be THAT stupid. They'll surely be aware of how things are being exploited so in time will make it harder or remove the product. The Halifax reward would be one example. £5 really simple money to having to jump hurdles for a measly £3, or £4.50, or £6 depending however you look at it.

I expect the banks expect a certain number of people to exploit their products, like switching bonuses for example - they know full well some will take advantage, and will factor that in when they produce these products.

Probably won't get any response from those already given up on giving advice!

There are no more than a hand full of regular posters that I have time for on the money pages, these are the people that can actually work it out for them selves as apposed to those needing a subtle hint and push in the right direction, These people are conspicuous by the absents on the Tesco thread.
I'm aware of things that very rarely if ever get mentioned on here and no doubt completely oblivious to many more.

There is one product frequently highlighted on here which it is possible to make hundreds out of each month, perfectly legitimately, with a little trick. I've never highlighted it on here because as others have said the provider would close the loophole. Mean I know!
