One night on holiday while waiting for family to get ready to go out, I put a claim in on every bank on the MSE list, not knowing if I'd even had an account with them.

Just got 1st reply, from BOS. they owe me over £10k, which will be paid within 28 days.

Only did it ti kill time!

    Thanks, wasn't expecting anything from any of them, was in shock when I opened letter today.

    Maybe my luck's changing, started doing postcode lottery in May, Won £20 in May, £10 in July, & £1000 2 weeks ago!

    And to think - some people would’ve told you to use a CMC.
    helpful tips
    it's spelt d-e-f-i-n-i-t-e-l-y
    there - 'in or at that place'
    their - 'owned by them'
    they're - 'they are'
    it's bought not brought (i just bought my chicken a suit from that new shop for £6.34)

    I know.
    I only did it 'cos I came on this site while twiddling my thumbs, and thought why not, nothing to lose.

    A bit excited now because I did about 10 applications, some of which I knew I'd had dealings with. Up until today I've had 2 letters acknowledging my claim, but nothing further.
