edit, did you say abbey, part of nationwide. lol i saw one of their branches having the whole branch gateway, printers domain, the lot running through a P3 last year.

Nationwide should sue you for libel.

Abbey is part of the Santander Group. Nothing to do with Nationwide at all.

I wouldn't agree with not phoning up and buying online instead, simply because there's no space for negotiation online, obviously if your not the sort of person who's able to say "I want that but for this price" then that's not a problem but when i bought from dell last year I used the quidco "discounted" price as my absolute highest price i was willing to pay but aimed a lot lower and ended up getting just shy of 15% off as opposed to the 5% i'd have got back through quidco.
