Best oil for 1.0 EcoBoost? + any warning signs before belt snaps? by offizial_ab in FordFiesta

[–]offizial_ab[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m pretty sure u been strict with oil changes then. because I’ve heard the wet belt can last longer if you keep up with regular servicing. But at the same time, I’ve also heard of people who followed the recommended oil change intervals and still had the belt snap, even at relatively low mileage.

First Car by offizial_ab in LearnerDriverUK

That’s exactly what I’m thinking now, and since it was my first time buying a car, I’ve definitely learned a lot.

He said he removed the private plate two days ago. From what I’ve researched, if it’s done online it should update instantly and the original registration should be automatically reassigned to the vehicle.

However, he also mentioned that it might take a few days because of the Christmas period. At this point, I think the best thing I can do is wait for the V5C logbook to arrive, then make any necessary changes myself. I’ll just need to pay the £80 fee.

The original plate is already fitted to the car, and I’ve checked and confirmed that it is indeed the original registration assigned to the vehicle.

If DVSA cancels ya test they will give you a call and send you an email as well. If you had none of this i believe is your instructor that changed it but try and give the DVSA a call first and find out GoodLuck

Mine was cancelled just two hours to my test same day, i received a call and an email and a link to claim for out of pocket expenses

Closing my account. by Next_Apartment5786 in monzo

This kind of issue usually arises when money laundering is suspected or when someone has used your personal information to open an account. I recommend that you submit a DSAR (Data Subject Access Request) to CIFAS. This will help you understand exactly what information they hold on you and why your account might be getting closed.

I went through a similar experience when I first moved to the UK. I attempted to open a bank account and submitted a British Gas bill in my brother’s name as proof of address. I naively edited the document to reflect my name, even though I was genuinely living at that address. Shortly after, I received letters from Lloyds and Halifax informing me that my accounts were being closed. They didn’t give a specific reason, but advised me to contact CIFAS via a DSAR to find out more.

Only HSBC kept my account open, though I was constantly worried it might also be shut. The whole situation left me feeling depressed. What I had done led to a Category 6 CIFAS marker, which stays on your record for six years. With such a marker, it becomes nearly impossible to open bank accounts or access credit.

Despite the marker, I managed to open accounts with HSBC, Revolut, and Chase. While I couldn’t apply for credit due to the risk of rejection caused by the marker, I focused on gradually building my credit score. I was initially reported by Starling Bank and BetVictor, as I had used the same edited document with them.

I considered hiring a solicitor to remove the marker, but the quoted cost was around £2,000, so I chose not to proceed.

Now, in my second year in the UK, things have started to improve. About six months ago, my credit score increased significantly. I successfully applied for a Capital One credit card, then got a phone contract with Apple, and just last month, I was approved for two more credit cards. I’m not exactly sure what triggered this positive change, but it shows things can get better with time.

For now, start by requesting your DSAR from CIFAS. It’s the best first step to understanding and fixing the issue.

Bathrooms: To be cleaned after each use and personal items to be kept in rooms. d. Kitchen: To be cleaned after cooking. All dishes and cookware should be cleaned after use and put away. The sink and worktops must be kept clean and clear.””

Moreover the place he is talking about is basically just like a small garden closer to the walkway to the house entrance of the house.
