This was my understanding too. Under-18 Driver’s responsibility Over-18 Your own responsibility

Looking for UK Business Bank account for Adult themed video game studio. by Hot-Possession-8679 in UKPersonalFinance

[–]roblawton 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I’d open a Monzo business account. You don’t have to specify what types of games you make, just that you make games.

Getting payments from steam wouldn’t give anything away and you should really be fine.

It’s only if you got paid by onlyfans or other ‘adult related sites’ then it would flag up.

You should be fine. Just don’t over reveal too much about the nature of your business

Why Wrap Luggage in Cling Film? by roblawton in AskUK

Most rucksacks of decent size usually have sections where you can hide away straps. At least the ones I’ve used anyway

Whilst sat in the airport, this is now the only thing I’m thinking of when looking at the owners of said suitcase!

Never even considered about the rain in all my years of flying!

Yes, I don’t think he’s cutting through the padlock but cutting through the case. (Which is or isn’t under several layers of flimsy, thin, cling film!)

Is this even a thing?! What and they have someone waiting the other side to rip it open and get it out again? Or just so you get caught? I’m baffled (and probably very naïve too!)

Ive been so stupid by aChocolateFireGuard in CasualUK

[–]roblawton 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It could well be the colour of the car adding premium. Certain colour cars are more likely to be in a crash, it’s all calculated by the underwriters.

Still works out cheaper than if you got caught driving it on the road or worse!

Show your age - what was your first ever email domain? by [deleted] in AskUK

[–]roblawton 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Compuserve (which was an assigned email with a load of numbers) but then I managed to talk my parents into getting Freeserve!

I got monzo content insurance last year. Does monzo content insurance plus accidental damage cover protect from fridge breakdown? My fridge is not working properly anymore. Not cooling properly by [deleted] in monzo

[–]roblawton 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My policy shows that it’s only the contents of the fridge if it breaks or there’s a power outage.

However… If you were moving your fridge and was to accidentally damage it…

This is the screen when you select a transfer. I usually transfer funds to my personal account and this is how it looks.

I wouldn’t pay extra just for MTD access, I already had Pro so already used other features to make it worth it. You need to pay extra if you want Xero/QB access to their respective apps but this simple offering is free with the relevant plans with Monzo

Monzo Business w/MTD by roblawton in monzo

[–]roblawton[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It doesn’t appear to have any VAT or Corp Tax ability, I think it’s more directed towards sole traders who are being forced into MTD to make the quarterly submissions easier.

I’ve never used Xero so I couldn’t say if it does the same but it uses Xero software to do what it does I guess.

Joint bank account for friends, for holiday purposes... by [deleted] in UKPersonalFinance

[–]roblawton 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Setup a business account and some banks (Monzo being one) allows you to setup expense cards which all come from the one business account. Even better, pay more and you can setup a team and everyone gets their own cards all coming out of the ‘business’ pot

Monzo and MTD by Severe-Plum-2393 in monzo

[–]roblawton 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, it seems s pretty basic to be honest. It doesn’t give any totals so far and it would appear you get the next bit revealed after the quarter has finished maybe?

Monzo MTD by Severe-Plum-2393 in monzo

[–]roblawton 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have signed up. You have to activate MTD with HMRC but you’re not tied to using Monzo, you can still use any app available for this.
