    Whilst 100.00 is needed for voting and windfall payments some people basically dont have 100.00 and the O/P was asking for advice about the sum of 10.00. ;)
    I was agreeing with you! I said "Quite right" - and I mentioned £100 because the O/P's original post also raised the question of possible windfall :smiley:
    ".....where it is corrupt, purge it....."
  • Normally I would have a spare £100 but am saving every penny as i'm doing Camp America this summer for 3 months and I'm taking unpaid leave to do it, so all my spare money is going into high interest savings account til I go in June so wouldn't really benefit from putting £100 in B/S acc.

    When I'm more flush next yr I'll convert it to e-saver account and bung in the £100 and leave it there as a rainy day fund.

    I don't really expect the Principality to become a bank but you never know what may happen 20/30 etc yrs down the line!

    Thanks for your replies
