    That was a rather sarcastic comment.  Please try and remember that not everybody on this forum will be as computer literate as you, and since there has never been a tutorial on the technicalities of using the new format, it 's not surprising that some people will struggle trying to do certain things.

    you are right, even I did not know at first and had to figure out.  Someone will try and figure out themselves and someone will just ask..doesn't matter - its a helpful community as always!!!

    I posted assuming s/he was fed up seeing seeing the previous childish tit for tat posts relating to on or off topic etc. It wasn't sarcastic. 
    You should clarify before jumping to conclusions and positioning yourself as the forum police.

    Agreed, this was my interpretation of your post. That you were sincerely trying to offer an alternative to bailing on the thread completely.

    So, 6 frivolous OT posts, one prediction and 7 disgruntled OT posts.
    As predicted ,,,

    Hi all,
    What are the differences between the NS&I Direct Saver and the Income Bond account? Specifically, I don't really understand how the latter works. It has a yield of 1.16% which is higher than the Direct Saver's interest rate, but is the capital at risk? If not, what are the advantages of the Direct Saver over the Income Bond account? 
    Thanks :)
