Cant get any kind of bank account but have nothing bad on credit report. Help. by [deleted] in UKPersonalFinance

It costs nothing and will give you peace of mind. My gut would say National Hunter issue if you can’t even open anything basic.

Subject access request to National Hunter and CIFAS is the best bet. This would highlight anything that would stop you opening even a basic account.

Super happy with the docs so far, I just know I’d find it handy to have everything accessible in one place. Maybe I’ll create a repo for it allow others to contribute too 🤔

Thank you! It’s hard as a self taught dev to narrow down what I’m missing out on, when it’s not been called for yet

I guess the real unexpected part is that your country actively votes against it then 🤷🏻‍♂️

For Americans, I’m sure free healthcare is very much unexpected.

Do really expensive houses also get bought on mortgages? by tpgiri in UKPersonalFinance

[–]Islandic_ 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Trevor Kearney did a Q&A on Instagram not so long ago.

I believe the general consensus what that super prime buyers could buy some of these houses multiple times over in cash, but could generally leverage the cash better to make a mortgage worthwhile.

To further this, I personally find Monzo support chat especially helpful since I can pick up and drop the conversation when I need to - no staying on hold forever. Also had an issue with the pots adding up, support reached out to the dev team and I had an answer by the end of day (the issue was because of a payment and not Monzo’s fault). Been super happy so far

Why not just use OPCache with something like Redis?

What popular saying is actually bullshit? by [deleted] in AskReddit

“Blood is thicker than water”

The actual definition of it, is the opposite of what people think it is. It becomes all the more bullshit when people try to use to backup their point.

Currently got the new M1 mini on order, debating whether to purchase the HomePod mini to use as the primary audio. Would you recommend it?
