    I've just posted a voucher code and done with a typo, I need to edit the post  :(
    It’s fine, you have replied to your post with the correct code which is ok until you gain your edit button x

    Although I fully understand the reasons, its frustrating that you can't edit a a 'new poster'.  I've been visiting and reading the forums for ages now but only just starting posting to ask questions - for some reason after submitting my post I see all lines are double-spaced and it looks awful but I can't do anything about it !!!  Ah well, fingers crossed it won't be long before I'm allowed to edit.

    No double line spaces or anything wrong with this post of yours x

    That's probably because that post was done by continuous typing and the poster didn't use the Enter button to start a new para/line.

    If you look at their first post here https://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/discussion/6379561/lgps-with-avcs-maximum-lump-sum#latest. you can see what they are saying.

    Someone else was saying the same thing a few days ago in the thread here https://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/discussion/6378440/paragraphs-and-line-breaks#latest

    It does seem that there is a problem being experienced by only a few people.

    You need to have participated a bit more, exactly how much is unknown. You'll see a cog appear and that's how you can edit your comments.

    Edit to add example:

    Mortgage started 2020, aiming to clear 31/12/2029.
