Icesave - hard facts/possible Fortis takeover?
I feel a little guilty about starting another thread, however it seems there are so many that seem to have descended into speculation and "I told you so" that there's little hard fact available. I have money with Icesave, and ultimately it takes as long as it takes for the mess to be sorted out, panic won't change…

The "I got out of jail" on Icesave thread...
Although I can argue that a decent chunk of the money was trapped 'between accounts' that doesn't take away from the fact that I was utterly, utterly stupid to have believed the "we're sound" bullsh!t from Landsbanki/Icesave, and was staring down the barrel of financial ruin as a result of yesterday's events. So screw any…

New Savings Account - B&B ok?
Now that Icesave have gone bust I will need another savings account to start putting money into each month (and all non-ISA Icesave money when I finally get that back too). I prefer monthly interest and instant access, so the B&B eSavings account at 6.51% looks a good deal to me. I understand that they are now owned by…

If the FSCS take a month to repay us and open new accounts then that will be really tough. Should I open another current account and spread my…

Does anyone have a categorical answer to this question please? Assume I have a share dealing account with iii.co.uk, who use Barclays trading service. Assume I also have a sum of money sitting in that account as cash - it's money I've moved there from a bank account and funds from the sale of shares. So I'm not talking…

FSA Registration and FSCS Protection
Why do most "conglomerate" financial institutions - those which own a number of individual banks - choose to operate under a single communal FSA registration which must surely result in less business for them when prospective customers are aware that their FSCS protection would be limited to a single amount of £50,000 and…
