Cancer Support
My son is 36yo, lives alone and works from home full time. A few years ago he had radiotherapy treatment for cancer around his throat and sinuses which left him with no sense of smell, slight visual problems, and issues with his teeth (among a few other minor things). He has to have a special toothpaste on prescription for…

Can I use a mobile with my land line number?
OK so is there a way to do this? We were recently sent a VOIP thing to replace our current wifi hub and plug our land line in to. We haven't managed to do it and the provider (ee) won't help unless we agree to pay a call out fee. Yes I know this is something that your average 12 year old could do in under 5 minutes but us…

Engage Credit.
hello. I’m new to this and would like to ask if anyone has a mortgage with Engage Credit. We have a mortgage that only has 6 years to run. Initially we were told we were not allowed to over pay to reduce the length of the mortgage. It seemed unfair but as it is a Prime mortgage I thought this is normal. However I have…

Product switch during remortgage application
We're coming up to 4 months until our existing fix ends and, while waiting for Nationwide to send an offer our way, have watched interest rates jump over the past week - one product we had an eye on was 4.3% last week, and 4.99% this week.

Is there a way to change ALL future deliveries from EVRi and DPD ? There is a local website and almost on a daily basis there are stories of parcels being photographed at unknown places and buyers just left astonished as to where their parcels are located. I have had similar cases too. Late last year I had an email from…

Experiences of Freetrade?
I started an ISA with InvestEngine a year ago for tucking away spare money, separate from my pension savings. While I like the offering from them, ease of using the app and obviously the low cost of investing, I can't shake off an uneasy feeling about their reliability. For example, they pulled their new Life plan managed…

Water Ingress?

Voluntary National Insurance for Self Employed Low Earner. Handholding needed please!
Hi all I'm sorry to have to come and ask for help, but my eyes go fuzzy and my brain clouds over when it comes to stuff like this! I've been self-employed since Sept 2025. I'm well under the threshold to pay through self assessment (I think! - I've earned under £2,000) so as I understand it I can pay voluntarily. If that…

UKPC , DCB LEGAL court claim
Hi Forum, I'm back again with another PCN—this time for parking slightly outside a white line. I've already submitted the standard template appeal to UKPC, which was unsurprisingly rejected. They've now issued me a POPLA code. Would it be worth proceeding with an appeal to POPLA? If so, is there an up-to-date template I…

Zopa letter
Hi, So a repayment plan I was on with Zopa for 3 months has just come to an end. They have sent me a letter today (dated 17th Feb) informing me that "my loan will soon go into default."
