In the interests of saving money, I contact 02 to change over to pay as you go since I don't use my mobile so much now. Even though they told me previously that I was on the lowest monthly tariff (?17), to persuade me to stay on a monthly contract they halved my monthly charge to ?8.50 and gave me ?50 credit on my account. Worth a phone call I would say!

I'm with Vodafone, have been for 7 years now - went into a store a couple of weekends ago just to have a look at phones - left with a ?40 credit off my next bill and a brand new whizzy phone that does all sorts of things I don't need (but it's fun). Didn't change my contract as I'm happy with it (?17 a month for 125 any time any network calls, which is plenty for me, and unlimited texts). It's definitely worth calling them or popping into a branch!
Just saw that my bank were going to charge me 125 bloody quid at the end of this month! Now I expected, and even accepted some charge this month, but not that. I remembered this thread and called my bank, told them I was planning to close my account and look elsewhere... I was put on hold for 5 seconds before they came back and said they'd reduce it by ?75 Not bad for a 5 minute phone call! :)-D

Sorry, just seen that. It was HSBC, been with them since it was Midlands, and have never bothered changing. Have never opened other accounts with them though.


Did get ?2k charges back from them last year though, dated back to my student days, and the wild couple of years following!


LadyG, I shall indeed get you a large glass of vino!

    • Yawn.. as I and others suspected the noticeboard is already looking shabby, has the details of local councillors who in my experience are of very limited help with anything at all (e.g. noticeboard took several years of writing to get back in working order and now isn't being kept up to date with any useful local info about food banks or any services as promised). So nothing at all in left hand side. Pointless and a real shame as could benefit so many small businesses.. and no I don't own a small business I just believe in supporting shopping locally where possible and know they often have little to no marketing budget.
