    Yes the last link in the OP that shows everyone's totals for all the years they've been saving. I did previously have savings totals for 2018, 2019, 2020, 2021, and 2022. But now I only have my 2022 totals showing. Has this happened to anyone else?

    #13 reporting £9500 for March.

    We had a windfall of taxes, we probably won't save a lot from now till I go back to work in the fall. This will definitely help in our goal for a house downpayment.

    Number 54 reporting £3,767 for the month thanks to an additional dividend from my limited company work.

    My savings will be less for the rest of the year, as after over 34 years of full time working in my job I am dropping to 4 days a week, with Mondays off! It is the start of trying to have more life in my work / life balance.
    Well that is a lovely reason to save a bit less. Hope you have fun with the extra day not working (we do)

    Hmmm sorry about this, I'm sure we can fix it. 
    I think the problem may be due to your names changing slightly on the spreadsheets over the years - in some years there is a space between the words making up your username, in other years it's an underscore. I'll ask slowly to edit them, when she has a few minutes, and the figures should pull through ok then.
    If anyone else sees some figures missing - do let me know.
    Save 12k in 2013-2014-2015-2016-2017-2018-2019-2020-2021-2022 - then early-retired.

    Thanks @geoffers4 I think the names display differently since the new version of the site was launched and it actually affects anyone with a space in their original name. I noticed a few around my name that were the same
