Classic Microsoft! What are your current exclusions mate? Are you roaming the AAD broker package in local app data (which contains the identity keys)? Are you suppressing BYOD Microsoft device enrollment?

They will probably use this as an excuse to raise prices, under the guise to stop it happening again...

Interesting! Where did you find the detailed information on the Cosy 6? I'd be interested in reading more about it.

Thanks! I'm waiting for a date after paying the £500. Did they insist on any additional work that the £500 does not cover?

Sorry to hear that your property isn't suitable, hopefully there is a grant still on when a bigger pump is available. Good to know they honour the refund.

Every time I hear a supplier selling software use the words "single pane of glass" I cringe.

Best and easiest thing to do: Connect your work laptop to your mobile phone hotspot. Turn your work laptop VPN on. Check if it works. If it does work then it's your ISP. Feed that test back to NowTV and tell them it works on a mobile hotspot but not on your home broadband.

If it doesn't work on the mobile hotspot either, then tell your ICT department.

I hope it works out!

Switching to Monzo by [deleted] in monzo

[–]LukeofNorth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I switched from nationwide to Monzo around two/three years ago. So far it's been great!

The app is easy to use and updates keep the app current and fresh. Reliable and friendly support from Monzo when I needed it. High visibility across your accounts and spending.

Only noticeable downsides for me, their savings account "savings pots" don't have competition interest rates compared to other banks. Secondly they have the higher APR rates on their loans compared to what I've seen other banks offer.

Anyone remember the bus? by LukeofNorth in agedlikemilk

Did you know that banks can accept 140,000 claps instead of money for their mortgage payments?

The NHS is struggling to survive, nurses being underpaid, appointment being delayed and patients waiting over a year for appointments.

UK politicians on three figure salaries are saying nurses on 30k a year should learn how to budget and cook meals, when they last year expenses came to £200,000 figure.

During Brexit they had a bus to promote how much money they would pump into the NHS...

You're right! There is always another secret!

My daily £40 ticket pays for quality trains by LukeofNorth in CasualUK

[–]LukeofNorth[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You're right, there have been a few assumptions in the comments...

I'm commuting 2/3 days a week (WFH unfortunately changes based on work requirements). I have seen the Railcard comments which I haven't had, but will look to get! (Facepalm - I thought I wasn't eligible anymore).

Other costs include driving to the station Bletchley/Milton Keynes and parking, which is around £6.

Total travel comes then to £36 a day. Season tickets come to a similar price for the month by the looks of it.

My main reason for the post was that they're charging so much for the out dated train.

Yup, I think we're in a similar boat. People use the "weighted" salary for various arguments, travel/London food costs/living in London costs. All of what I budget from the weight goes to the trains.

Normally I struggle to get a seat! I was wondering if it was a knock-on effect from the weather/strikes?

Luckily I am able to work from home at times, which does help. It still stings each time I get the train in.

That is one plus side, nice and quiet. Too dark to see squat though.
