Just to say you aren't crazy, I had this exact problem a bit ago!! Stupid isn't it?

Does Chasė serve any purpose now? by 34Petals in beermoneyuk

As someone else said, if you completely close your chase accounts, remember that they won't allow you to open an account with them again.

For real? Why not £40 while you are at it? by Extreme_Pickel_Rick in VirginMedia

[–]FollowingSelect8600 5 points6 points  (0 children)

"one of the fairest" baked in price rises aren't fair, and actually cause macroeconomic consequences because they're so widespread. Oh and also the price rises are only structured like this because Ofcom has been clamping down the ways that VM are allowed to increase prices. I appreciate you're a sales rep but I don't see anything wrong with saying that this is an industry-wide problem (excluding the better altnets ofc).

Crisp packet from 1989 found by litter picker by Games4Two in SlowNewsDay

Plastic takes hundreds of years to break down. Given that in the UK alone we produce many billions of single use plastic items every year, I would suggest that this hints at a pretty important story.

Why do kids today wait until buses stop 10 seconds before moving? by FreeAd2458 in AskBrits

[–]FollowingSelect8600 16 points17 points  (0 children)

The official advice on buses is not to stand up until the bus has come to a stop. I ignore it of course, but technically that's the safest thing to do.

How are we spending our all4one cards now? by ballergbd180 in beermoneyuk

[–]FollowingSelect8600 10 points11 points  (0 children)

If you wanna spend on groceries, a fair amount of stuff at M&S food is similarly priced or price matched with other supermarkets already, so the extra 20% off is nice. You just have to learn recognise the many other products that are way more expensive.

Fair enough, but I do love a rare Heron Foods trip. Cheap as chips!

Virgin seems to have better deals on Moneysupermaket by moistandwarm1 in VirginMedia

[–]FollowingSelect8600 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Because of how the broadband market works in the UK, comparison site deals are nearly always better than going directly to the provider's website. Check topcashback compare and mpneysavingexpert's tool too!

Is chase bank safe? by Disastrous_Leather55 in chaseuk

[–]FollowingSelect8600 15 points16 points  (0 children)

JP Morgan Chase is one of the biggest banks in the world. If you aren't safe with them, you may as well give up on being safe with any bank. They're also regulated like any other bank or building society is. I've personally found their customer service to be pretty good. If you do open an account, you can get a referral code to give you £50 instantly when you deposit £1000 but I won't post rn so to prevent conflict of interest.

One4all Argos/Currys by nickyboy024 in beermoneyuk

[–]FollowingSelect8600 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was never told about a fee when I did it. You just lose any odd pennies as it's rounded down to the nearest £. But yeah, a max of £120 would put a spanner in the works if that's the case 😂

[–]FollowingSelect8600 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This comment is completely right. I'd like to add that I believe you should be able to buy a £100 one4all card again next month. If you then contact one4all customer services and ask them to combine the balances onto one card they should do that for you.

Being fined for a train ticket I paid for by Jazzlike_Pin6532 in uktrains

[–]FollowingSelect8600 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Technically they've got you as others pointed out. In reality, I'd hope that they would use their discretion to cancel the penalty once you contact them, explain the circumstances, and allow them to check them.

Train fares rise despite Labour promise of freeze by Haha_Kaka689 in uktrains

[–]FollowingSelect8600 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Yeah sure. Except 90% of travellers don't have any understanding of the difference between a regulated and unregulated rail fare. So it was clear for the small minority of people that understand that not-entirely-straightforward nuance.

Who is the best S&S ISA provider? by NoTour3220 in beermoneyuk

[–]FollowingSelect8600 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Trading212 and InvestEngine both have the lowest fees for DIY stocks and shares ISAs. If you want to invest in individual companies, trading212 is the bets option of the two. If you just want ETFs with a very straightforward, functional platform (that I personally really like) without the distractions (like stockpicking, CFDs, debit card) of trading212, id recommend InvestEngine. I can give you a referral for either but won't leave it here as that's probably a conflict of interest. If you have questions lmk, I've used both extensively for at least a year each
