It was Blair who failed to get us into the Eurozone.

Major got us into the ERM with disastrous consequences.

If they don't do buybacks there'll be 100b shares in a couple of years, that's not good for the divi amount or the share price

Max
U like Truss - but it seems that CS supporting her have failed to read the small print in the roll over trade deals.
So she gets the blame?

When I say that the HOC is full of dullards - this is an example.

What is ur brief ? To simply smile - no should be to fully understand!
Enshrining emission targets into law is the most reckless act imaginable.
Doris could be readily outdone by an opposition who could argue against such a definitive move.
That is the problem with labour - lay out ur stall - argue - dont follow this pathetic fatboy and the cronies that surround him

What did the last buyback achieve? Sfa from my memory (though could be wrong).Every last penny as a dividend for me. I'll decide whether I want to buy shares with it. Not a director(s) living in a different world.

Hug Bob. WTF! we don't hug down here cos we're not on mogadhon or crack and we don't live in fkin shop doorways. No! please don't bother coming down untill you've put up a hard border ideally 3miles short of the actual border so we can install plenty of razor wire and machine gum turrets. We can't allow u hugging lbgtq snowflakes to man a border cos you'd just let all the EU quents in. I'm for a massive wall with only 1 very narrow crossing point which takes at least a week to navigate.

NatWest Bank scheduled payments bug may have cost you money.



Today, the UK-based National Westminster (NatWest) Bank is emailing multiple customers, asking them to check their debit transactions over the last year.

The email alerts state that due to a system error, many more payments may have been debited from customer accounts than the originally agreed-upon frequency.

In emails sent by NatWest and seen by BleepingComputer, the system malfunction meant that the standing orders (similar to Bill Pay instruction) set up by banking customers over a period of 11 months did not correctly record the number of automated payments that were to be debited, or on what dates should the debits stop.

This means automated payments could have continued to be made from the customer accounts, even after a standing order had expired, costing customers money.


More money could've left your bank account

Today, NatWest has emailed multiple customers and urged them to check their bank account for payments debited since 23rd March 2020.

This issue primarily impacts NatWest banking customers who had set up standing orders via Online Banking for making automated payments.

Similar to Bill Pay (in the US), standing orders are used by UK banking customers to set up automated recurring payments for bills, rent, and other debit transactions.

Whereas a Direct Debit can be requested for a customer bank account by any organization (with customer approval), standing orders can only be initiated by the customer themselves.

A standing order typically contains the amount of payment to be debited, the frequency of payments (i.e. weekly, monthly, quarterly, etc.), and when should the payments end.

In emails sent by NatWest today, as seen by BleepingComputer, the bank states that due to a system error that lasted over 11 months, the total number of payments that should be debited or the date when these payments should end was not correctly recorded for standing orders.

"We'd like to apologise for a mistake we've made with standing orders. We can reassure you that it's now been put right and we'd also like to explain what to do if you’ve been affected."

"This error affects any standing orders you set up between 23rd March 2020 and 24th February 2021 using Online Banking," reads the email alert seen by BleepingComputer.

For standing orders initiated between these two dates, the bank failed to properly capture the end date for the order or the total number of (outgoing) payments the customer had requested.

"This means any payments will have continued to be debited from your account unless you cancelled it," continues the email alert, shown below:

Why all the fuss over Scotland?? At least 2 years off, by then England will be booming, Minerve dead and devaluation a distant Scottish dream.

Grahamite- Yes, they are bang out of order with respect to their absurd claim about keeping the peace in europe, and it's their crass arrogance for claiming it that really yanks my crank. They seem to have conveniently forgotten about Russia's 7 year war against Ukraine, preferring instead to engage with Putin and, as Juncker did, congratulate him on his most recent "election" victory.



Meanwhile the recent Azeri military victory over Armenia completely passed them by. With respect to Bosnia, 3 weeks of American led NATO bombing put a swift end to 4 years of bloodshed and procrastination by the "European Community". Furthermore, the subsequent failure of the EU to ensure the adherence of the terms agreed to by all parties at the Dayton peace agreement has recently led to a dangerous escalation of tension in the country.

John Redwood@johnredwood6hAs even the SNP agrees there should be no independence referendum anytime soon can we now talk about something else? Let's get on with making lives in the U.K. better and have a great recovery.

Boris is a great PMHero.Not saying he is perfect.But heroes and artists and such are never perfect.Great Man. A Leader.Thank you Boris.

[grahamite2] 10/5/2021 13:24

firtashia, the Bosnia situation gives the lie to the ludicrous proposition that the EU kept the peace after WWII. The EU couldn't prevent, or contain, or settle, even a minor war. The Americans had to sort things out.

There is nothing positive to be said about the EU, nothing.
