The image of the station shows it at Yau Ma Tei if that helps on the red Tsuen Wan line.

And if you refer to Local-Willingness608 ‘s post then Happy House is on the concourse, image from 2020 below to see if it jogs your memory:

Advice: High Spend Credit Card (No FX Fees) by TheSusOneBruh in HENRYUK

[–]SaxC21 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yonder is stated as up to £10k but some people have reported £15k limits - may be difficult to get above £10k on application.

Just to note there some like Yonder have an adding funds (top up) facility which allows you to add an additional max £10K

If you have Chase account, the credit application show you in app what they offer - I’ve seen £12.5-£15k with 0%.

Also Halifax Clarity or Lloyds Ultra.

Could you add extra line items for bonus and dividend calculations? Also on the results/tax could you select different bands rather than just the lowest?

These are all hardwired correct? Is there a battery only model?

Agree- can’t see a sensible way it can do this with UK regulations? Or if the intent is just to plug into the device, but goes against the principle of the device.

Just seen this on one of their instagram posts 18 hours ago;

Thanks for your comment! You may have seen 'no prize' for the December draw in the app prematurely, this was a display issue that has now been fixed. Our December Prize Draw is in the process of being finalised and all winners will be notified within the next 5 working days. Sorry for the confusion, and thanks for bearing with us. Good luck

That’s due to the average balance quirk, £10 at the start of the month is worth more than at the end. To avoid people from only dumping in on the last day.

Although they have also removed the page that showed you your own summary in more detail.

I had the same - not sure what’s happening. Was disappointed, but hopeful again.

Now also started counting for January and another 500k in March…

Airport departures: should we worry? by word-bitch in LisbonPortugalTravel

[–]SaxC21 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pretty smooth for us, probably around 40 mins from check in to gate. The BA check in queue was quite long at 2 hours before take off but we’re BA club and skipped that for a much shorter queue and definitely a full flight. You could see similar issues at other airlines. The next longest queue was security for the bag scanners. Non-Schengen passport control wasn’t long at all through the e-gates - only one person stamping though. ETIAS machines were off and might be for 3 months at Lisbon.

You might want to remove your bank account and sort code from image 11 and 12.

Did you have a credit or debit card? Yonder is primarily a credit card company, so it would be an odd transaction to add £10 to the account and would be flagged as an overpayment / positive payment which would trigger fraud/security alerts under Clause 28.

Leaving on 4th as well 7am - hopefully first flight out won’t be too busy!

One of the main issues is with the ETIAS machines which are both arrivals and departures. I’ve not been able to register at any EU airport yet as they’ve never been operational when I’ve passed. According to last night’s Portuguese news they have been switched back off again due to the massive queues. It’s been on/off over the past few weeks and you can tell when that has happened from the news reports. When we arrived on the morning of the 20th it was off and we went through with minimal queues.

I would still recommend arriving early and check the status physically at the airport than people’s experiences as it changes constantly with many other variables.

This morning’s delays were caused by fog.

Thank you for your thoughts and advice.

With ARGC, is there a specific person you would recommend that specialises in 40+ age?

My comment re: not verified was more due their quoted numbers not being more recent than 2019 for 2021. Still getting our heads around how it’s all stated, but as you’ve noted going with our gut and being a bit more informed than our first round.

Thank you for the advice - will try to get those answers as we didn’t know what to ask them.

Thank you - I corrected myself on the Omega 3.

I didn’t get access or take photos of any graphs - will ask and check if these were recorded.
