Santander Fixed ISA eVoucher offer
It looks like there are a few here who are familiar with the current deal. I have a hypothetical question about it. I know Santander run these kinds of offers regularly. Does anyone know roughly how long they run before they're pulled? Perhaps all of April for example, to entice a large ISA instake? Or perhaps just a…

National Insurance
Hello... apologies if I've got this in the wrong place. My wife ( 61) just retired early and will be receiving a NHS pension of £17500 per year. She also will be receiving approx £2000 annually as "bank shift" working income. So a total of £19500 I have transferred my marriage allowance to her so anything over £14100 is…

Cost of adding batteries to existing PV system.
I'd always shrugged off doing this as the return time would be too long. But I've recently seen some near-new battery setups being sold on FbMarketplace for prices that are hard to ignore - sometimes as little as £1.5k for excess of 10kWh. The Q is, what would the additional costs be should I jump? Ie, installation, and…

Switch Games
Hello, I recently got a Switch 2, I love it but the games are so expensive. Does anyone know if there are any places where I can buy them cheaper. I've noticed that CEX is VERY hit and miss, I went in over the weekend and for one of the games they were charging more than Nintendo directly! Thank you

Anchor Security via Moorside Legal | 11th May 2026 | Parking in a no parking area
Hi, So Ocean Parking handed me a PCN in April for parking outside of the bay (see photos - it's something plenty have done before there that hasn't led to any reprimand). I consulted a previous thread on Ocean and Metrolink car parks from MSE Forums and the advice seemed to be 'kill it with POPLA'. Here's a TLDR of what I…

RWG's New Website, Plans and new Charges
RWG's new site has been up for a few days now and several of us have been having a few issues with a variety of things, so I thought it a good idea to start a new thread rather than have spurious comments spread over two other RWG threads. Logging in was my first problem. Although it obviously recognised my email address…

No further follow up do I need to take action?
Hello, I followed the MSE template about 18 months ago and my finance company MotoNovo responded to confirm there was a hidden discretionary commission during my finance in 2015-2020. Since then I’ve heard nothing other than a legal company somehow getting hold of my details and contacting me claiming information had been…

FSCS - Lloyds Bank and Halifax Bank Linked
I regularly review my savings accounts. As I have noticed some recent bank takeovers, the Financial Services Compensation Scheme (FSCS) is of particular interest. The FSCS is now £120,000 per person, per financial institution, so I was keen to establish which banks are linked and particularly which banks share a single…

Garmin Scales
Hello, Our bathroom scales ceased to function, so we need some new ones. We like the Garmin scales, as they will directly sync and populate the Garmin Connect App. However, at £120, it is frankly a lot of money to pay and probably not worth it. A popular online retailer offers several alternative types of smart scales,…

What’s this about? This is a special thread where you can ask all the Travel Agents and MoneySavers who frequent this board to beat a holiday quote you have and get personalised replies. The idea is to see if someone can beat a quote for a specific holiday; not just a general price. So you need an exact quote. E.g. "I've…
