    That's right, but do Santander not refer to the 'Faster Payments' scheme here, rather than BACS? (I'm not a Santander customer, just know that there are different payment methods: CHAPS, BACS, Faster...

    The major UK banks usually set a lower limit for BACS payments, 'force' you (for a fee) to use CHAPS for higher value payments.
    Technically BACS can be used for values up to £20m per bank, per day -...

    Early retirement

    I’ would take the money. Two reasons:

    1) when the redundancies start there seldom is only one round of people being let go, so you’re still at risk. The redundancy packages tend to be less and...

    Really appreciate your reply, as well as the others. Thank you.

    Difficult to say as I’ve only had the watch for two days and not really worn it yet (as the previous owner kindly offered to take it back if the problem persists, so don’t want to scratch it etc.)

    Good morning,

    Thanks MADDOG. Have you used them before in any capacity?

    Don't expect anyone to be open before 15 June, but that's alright.
  15. Recommendations please: someone in central London to regulate a watch
