    i once had just £5 in PBs. (my parents must have bought them for me when i was a kid.) i once won a £25 prize. and later cashed in the £5. that works out a lot higher than 1.4% return.

    so, in effect, i am the reason biggus dickus got such a poor return. so sue me! :)
    You’ll be hearing from my legal team first thing on the morrow. :mad:

    I funded mine from an incorrect account and it was back in minutes. But with you, I'm assuming you have funded it with a lower amount than £1000? If so, then maybe worthwhile to look in the Nottingham account to see if it is actually there.


    No I have checked the Nottingham account and it is not in there, I did put £1000 straight after and that is showing. I will have to wait and see if it goes back into the originating account.
    If at first you don't succeed, sky diving is not for you!

    OK, well I reckon that it will have left Nottingham and will be awaiting reallocation in the receiving account.

    If you’ve only sent a test amount of £1 or so I doubt you’ll ever see it again,... unless you specifically ask for it to be returned.

    Bits‘n’bobs like that get transferred directly into a special account that funds lavish staff Xmas parties, trips abroad, expensive cars, lap-dancers and such like.

    I see this account has been pulled already,I presume you can still add funds as long as it was opened on time

    Marcus is still available for a slightly lower 1.5% however.
