    is this the same yougov company that nadhim zaharwi owns?
    He was a co-founder but doesn't own the company

    https://find-and-update.company-information.service.gov.uk/company/03607311/officers

    According to Companies House, he resigned from the company 22 years ago. Though I believe Companies House just report what they are being told. They do not verify the veracity of the reported information. They might not let you or me to get away with saying we own the moon, but they would almost certainly let us register as owners of the moon and moon.co.uk (not claimed yet!), so here's your chance for perhaps massive amounts of gains.......




    Anything official about companies' registers suggests he doesn't hold any roles in any companies these days. But who knows, May be the horses in his stables do?

    YouGov is listed in London and he doesn't appear as a major shareholder. Apart from one person who is also the CEO, they all appear to be fund managers.

    The shares were only ever owned by his offshore family trust, Balshore Investments. That's why he thought he could get away with not paying any CGT when the trust sold them.

    For those trying to add a Virgin Credit card and getting a TrueLayer 'URL too long' error.

    Login to YouGov finance on your phone with the Virgin CC app installed - TrueLayer opens the Virgin app and the CC can be added from there.
    Do Money Saving sites make you buy more bargains - and spend more money?
  • Am I missing something with the Virgin Money log in for this? It asks for a 7 digit Customer ID but I only have a 10 digit. How do I find the 7 digit number?

    You are not missing anything. Those with a 10 digit customer ID cannot log in to the Virgin Open Banking portal.
  • I just logged in and ALL my accounts have been deleted and it's treating me as if it's my first time logging in and setting banks up?!

    But the points received from the accounts previously on there that tracked are still active on the survey app?

    Is that the screen where it states what info will be requested from the banks you link, like a welcome screen?

    If so,, I recently got that too, and I just okayed/nexted past it, and my accounts were all there.

    When redeeming the 5000 points, yougov website asks for address and it has a text box saying 'street'.

    Do I enter my street name only, without entering the house number?
    Thank you for all the responses to this question. Especially from those who had done either of the above on the YouGov site, but scrolled past my post. Thanks again!!

    edit: as the form only asked 'street' I entered only street. Payment redemption initiated on Friday 10 February around noon. When I checked Metro bank account on Saturday and Sunday it hadn't arrived (possibly due to weekend). When I checked yesterday (Monday 13 February) 50 quid had arrived.
