Thanks, we're really pleased, obviously, just waiting for the money to come through now, but it's about time she got a break, she deserves it

Well, my Mum decided to just adhere to the letter and give up, so she sent back her card and her cheque book.
She then wrote to the bank asking them to release her bonds early - only 4 months, so she's not lost much interest - but she had got to the point where all the rest of her savings had been wiped out & she wouldn't have coped for another month without them.
So anyway, we decided to wait until the end of this month for the new letters & we'd take it from there.
Then out of the blue, a letter turns up, offering the full charges, obviously no interest, as a goodwill gesture!
She's disappointed now that she cashed in her bonds early(no idea why, she'll be lucky to have lost £50 interest), as this amount will see her through until she's back on a full wage, but obviously we're all very happy(but slightly baffled) by this result.

I can only assume they had decided to pay her out before the result of the test case and then decided to honour it in spite of their win?

Thats brilliant news. I'm absolutely delighted for you both.:T :T :T

Don't question the result too much,

just remember that sometimes the saying is true
"That good things happen to good people" :j :j

Great start to the New Year for you. :beer: :T

Well done.
