Fellow Forumites,


I thought wander into The Lounge and pass on a URL for a great web site that can save you all money in different way's shapes and forms every day. Some of you would have probably heard of it and be using this guys tips. Some won't.


Basically his site is focused on giving something back to consumer. He gives tips on anything from reclaiming bank fees to saving on international phone calls or broadband to getting freebies on certain products. He's already helped me reclaim over ?200 from my bank in dodgy mortgage "admin" fees!


Anyway I thought we could all do with some money saving tips, so here's the URL: Martin Lewis: Money Saving Expert


Also there was a ditsy sounding Yorkshire woman yapping loudly on the phone (and in my ear) on the train on the way from Leeds yesterday. Although most of what she had to say was complete garbage she did mention this site www.SayNOto0870.com which gives you alternative free or local numbers to companies that try and charge you a premium rate just to call them. Again really quite a good idea!


I would love to hear some future Lounge gossip here on how you saved money from Martins site too! Enjoy.

    • Unfortunately Nissan was a disaster of a company when it created your car and still is, and most recently created another combined disaster alliance with Renault. Be aware, the trade value on your car is really low as no one wants to do the work & it's often only when it reaches near scrap value that someone (else) is willing to invest (their money) to try and fix. So if you're willing to front the money and fix your car that (you know) then that is most likely your best option (also understanding that it is outrageous that you should have to replace a CVT gearbox after 50K). If that isn't appealing consider a new Skoda Fabia 1.0 (Auto) on finance if you can't afford cash, it will last 20yrs.... (and avoid cars from the Stellantis group)
    • If you are referring to me, I was using my mobile. Just quoting the post I was replying to would have made no sense without showing my original post as well. I wouldn't have been able to do that on a "real PC" either, assuming I carried one around with me everywhere. It's nothing to do with what I'm using, it's the way the forum is set up to quote posts. I did insert a screenshot showing the keyboard by mistake.
    • You have to book for the Sunday roasts in advance. I have bad memories of once going for a circular  walk around Downe and then trying to eat. The Queens Head staff (and customers)  looked at us as if we were mad for attempting to get a meal without booking. The other pub in the village  reeked of bleach.  We had to  drive around in search of a meal, and ended up at some large pub whose name and location  I have thankfully forgotten. All I remember is the food, which was truly awful.
