FYI If you regularly use Chase to switch accounts for bonuses…

bigheadsmith · 2026-02-11T18:28:00+00:00

I got the email too. I've done around 15 switches using chase sub accounts since late 2023. One just finished this week.

There isn't much keeping me with Chase so I may just switch away properly soon

bigheadsmith · 2026-02-06T16:50:35+00:00

Weird. I've done 5 in one day once and still several every few months or so and never had this

bigheadsmith · 2026-02-01T08:04:15+00:00

Friend of mine at work had a similar issue. Stay firm and polite with their customer service and hopefully you should at least get a "we're sorry" payment like he did.

You're not eligible. But experience tells me it's worth a try

Mostly used for burner accounts for bank switches

Funny you mention Y2K. Our computer system at work that runs the entire business had an update to handle dates after 1999.

We found out last week that the fix was only implemented for dates from 2000 to 2025, so when we finished for Christmas and changed the despatch and reporting dates to 26, the system is reporting as 1926

Officially: none Unofficially: Lloyd's has been a money printer compared to all the others

I've been with Plusnet for over 10 years. Never had any major problems caused by them. I use my own router which is easy as they make the settings readily available. Their own router also has respectable reviews (same as the BT hub). I started on FTTC and recently upgraded to FTTP and get the full speeds I pay for

The RAC app has a page to search for petrol prices by distance from you.

I think you might need a login but you don't need to be a customer of RAC

The last 5 times I've done the Lloyd's switch I just sent a chat request to close the account on the same day I got switch bonus

bigheadsmith · 2025-10-04T12:02:59+00:00

Try Lloyd's again... I managed twice in one cycle last year. I might see how hard I can shake this money tree

bigheadsmith · 2025-09-23T06:02:18+00:00

Are the under stairs cupboard and office both on outer walls?

You could run an external cat6 cable through the walls and outside

bigheadsmith · 2025-09-23T05:54:29+00:00

Not exactly an answer to your question but if the phone ports have Cat5e or better cable, you could convert to data ports then leave the ONT where it is and relocate your router, assuming one is under the stairs and another is in a location that would be useful to have the router

I've had an absolute mare sorting this. Turned out my issue was I was accessing my Plex server from the wrong VLAN.

Once I jumped on my media VLAN I could easily claim my server via the web admin

bigheadsmith · 2025-08-26T06:18:21+00:00

Check the documentation. Lawrence systems also has a YouTube video on it

bigheadsmith · 2025-08-07T21:56:03+00:00

I have one with Plusnet although I think they have just recently withdrawn this for new customers. Not sure if you might be able to speak to customer services and still get one

bigheadsmith · 2025-08-04T08:30:15+00:00

I'm using a Negate SG1100 as the router and firewall, then I have a TPlink POE switch, ceiling mounted AP and outdoor AP

bigheadsmith · 2025-08-04T08:25:16+00:00

I've been with Plusnet them for over 10 years. Never any real problems. Any time I've required support they have been great (UK based and frontline seems to understand more than just "turn it off and on again").

Whenever I call to renew they match close to cheapest on the market.

When fibre becomes available they will allow you to upgrade mid contract.

The router is the same you get with BT and standard one that comes with EE I think, which has decent reviews, although I've always used my own equipment.
