    Payday today and another £500 transferred to my Marcus account. This money (and another £1,000 already previously saved) to be transferred to a TSB Classic Plus that I hope to open on Monday.

    I'm glad you're all on the mend.

    Thanks for updating the spreadsheet but I notice I'm still only down for £500 in January whereas I've actually saved £1,000 (I'm no 148).

    Keep up the good work.

    Thanks.

    I did add the original £500 but I wasn't assigned a number so it probably hasn't captured.

    slowlyfading, shall I add the original £500 to the Easy Update Form then?
