Yes, I've got four pending, dating back to 17/05. I must give them another chase actually, as they did tell me May's requests would be paid during July (then June in August, and so on). Keeping the faith though, as they did come good last time!greent said:Eventually.... they are having payment issues (again) at the moment - I've got several payouts dating back to 1st May still outstanding (just under £65 in total)Mortgage start: £65,495 (March 2016)

I think it would be so much less offensive if they just decided to stock it all all year round - then we’d just know ‘that’s the Christmas display’ and ignore it! Have heard Tesco cc ads on the radio with an offer price on tubs of heroes. No mention of the C / H word, but the implication is there.Mortgage free 16/06/2023! £132,500 cleared in 11 years, 3 months and 7 days
