Calor LPG - HELP!
We have had endless issues with them since we’ve been renting this property 4 years ago. We will be moving and only just received a completion date so have just informed them. They delivered gas to us in May (that we never requested) and they want us to pay £1k for that gas because they’re not going to take it back from…

Hi all, I asked a couple of years ago about a holiday to the US and got a great response. We are AI so hopefully not huge spends but would like to take £200 in cash and take a CC for extras and pay off in full when back. Just wondered if anyone has any recommendations? Thanks

Travel Insurance - Undiagnosed condition
Hi, We are going abroad and want to sort travel insurance. Normally we get this as a couple and use one of the specialists as we both have health conditions. However, this year my partner is currently awaiting confirmation of a newly diagnosed condition (it takes many months of tests to confirm) and we cannot find any…

New Manchester Airport Pick Up Parking Charge (APCOA)
Looks typical of others. Dropped off and completely forgot to pay. Once remembered, it was too late to pay! After the parking charge was received in the post, I checked here and found it would be pretty simple to appeal. However, some of the templates are referring “Relevant Land” and POFA. On the parking charge received,…

Now TV stream stops for adverts
I have a black Now TV box (not the 4K one). I only use it to watch Sky SportsF1. When Sky goes to an ad break, the stream stops and I'm thrown back to homepage (this is the top level page with the app icons; now, iplayer, Netflix etc.) I have to run the now app, find the channel and start it again. BUT if its an ad break,…

Overdraft & Self Managed DMP
I’m already on a self managed DMP and have been since last November. It’s all going well bar a few bumps in the road. One thing I have never tackled is my overdraft. Hence the post. Can you ask a bank to freeze the interest charges on your overdraft and then agree to pay £x per month to gradually reduce it? Would they then…

S75 claim on purchase from 2020
I bought an Eve mattress in 2020, which at the time came with a 10 year guarantee. I've been struggling with the mattress for a while, so today, I removed the washable cover only to discover that there is a huge tear in the foam that extends through all the different layers till it gets to the box springs. I don't really…

Cooperative bank - delay in showing transfers in?
I have had a broadly rubbish experience with Coop as a bank, so this observation doesn't surprise me. But I've just transferred money into my Co-op account and it's not showing up. Is this a weekend thing, does anyone know?

Debts under wrong address
A few years back I left the UK and put most of my accounts at my parents address. When I started struggling financially I changed the address on these accounts to a mail forwarding address so I could continue to receive my letters electronically as this company scans them and I can access them from outside the UK. Since…

Hi - In November 2024 I purchased a Vauxhall Zafira (2016) Manual/Petrol. I travelled short of 60 miles to collect the vehicle. At the time it came with a 3 month showroom-warranty. Just before Christmas I was at work when it rained and I realised there was a stream of oil coming from the under the vehicle. I did have…

Should I contact moorcroft
Hi, I’m embarking on a self managed dmp after reading guidance on this forum. Two of my accounts have now been passed to moorcroft. From what I can tell this just means they are collecting on behalf of the original debt and it hasn’t been sold to them. Do you advise to set up a payment plan or ignore them until it gets…

Replacing just double glazed units - Thoughts?
Hey everyone, Our windows at the front have some units which have gone, otherwise the windows are alright. Has anyone had theirs replaced and got any feedback on the process? It looks like it might cost say 300 quid per unit, so, for a three window area like my daughter's bedroom I'd not get much change from a grand. I'm…

What to do when nectar price isn't applied?
I went to Sainsburys on Friday and saw a product that usually costs £7.75, but with a nectar price of £7. It's a bit of a favourite in our house, so I bought 10 of them, which should have given a discount of £7.50, but when I checked the receipt, I had been charged full price on all of them. Previously when I've had an…

Missed card repayments
Hi my question is how long do missed payments stay on your credit report and how long does it impact on your score? Context I managed to spend money on an old credit card (now cancelled) as the details were stored on my PC & I thought I was paying with my current card, also saved on there. I just didn't check my bills that…
