[sentimentrules] 29/3/2020 20:41

I only build what i think is of actual financial benefit in decision making process

Wouldnt waste my time otherwise

[adrian j boris] 29/3/2020 20:40

damn good idea make them pay

no more free bb

sounds good to me

might even cut down on posters

[sentimentrules] 29/3/2020 20:37

Main thing is, membership is by payment only

just be £1 a year but most wont do forums when real info required. Keeps the chimps out

probably struggle to get to 50 - but at least worth readin

But once its set up globally, be very good

wake up and gander at the asian or aus stuff for a few mins etc etc

[sentimentrules] 29/3/2020 20:34

Basically means you dont need moderate - simply invite who you want

[sentimentrules] 29/3/2020 20:33

Thats possible - but defeats the purpose of most forums.. however there is a system allowing you to also open your own club

so lets say you dont like the general chat on metro - well simply open a club called metro and invite the users you want with example @sentimentrules

The info will be public in clubs. Readable to all. Dont want FCA coming down on me for all that private stuff outside of person blog sections

A gerbil & chimp section maybe where they cant liase with the rest? But we can taunt them? good idea


LOL

Better idea would be to limit posts per poster to just 5 a day and stamp out repetitive or unessential posts that give little information to others

Perhaps there should be one blog within which the likes of Wardy et all are allowed to join in, but solely for the purpose of responding to constant goading and criticism from Spartans.

(Alliance News) - Metro Bank PLC has joined a growing number of providers in offering customers temporary relief on overdraft charges.

Metro Bank shares were 9.0% lower at 98.35 pence each in London on Friday afternoon.

It said personal current account customers will not be charged any interest for using their overdraft for a period running from the start of March until the end of June.

This applies to both new and existing customers, Metro Bank said.

It will happen automatically and customers do not need to contact the bank.

Kat Robinson, director of bank accounts at Metro Bank, said: "We're mindful of the uncertainty caused by coronavirus and are committed to supporting our customers whose personal finances may be impacted at such a challenging time.

"We will therefore waive all overdraft interest due from the beginning of March until the end of June for personal current account customers.

"We hope that this will provide some flexibility for our customers as we all adjust to the unprecedented circumstances we find ourselves in."

Meanwhile, Banco Santander SA's UK unit also announced on Friday that it will introduce a GBP350 interest-free overdraft buffer for three months from April 6.

This means it will automatically waive interest on up to GBP350 of any agreed overdraft limit.

On Thursday, Nationwide Building Society said it will not charge overdraft interest from April 20 until July 1 for those financially impacted by Covid-19.

Customers can request a fee-free overdraft interest holiday by completing an online form.

Several other banks have previously announced automatic help with overdraft charges for customers.

Barclays PLC said overdraft interest will be waived from March 27 to the end of April, meaning no charges for customers to use their agreed overdraft.

It said customers do not need to call to set this up, as interest will automatically be removed from March 27.

Lloyds Banking Group PLC and Royal Bank of Scotland Group PLC have announced that from April 6, customers will be able to access a GBP300 interest-free overdraft.

Their customers who have an agreed overdraft do not need to take any action as this will automatically be available for three months until July 6.

As of Thursday, HSBC Holdings PLC's UK unit has introduced a temporary GBP300 interest-free buffer on overdrafts for customers with its Bank Account and Advance Account for a period of three months.

HSBC will apply the change to customers automatically, so they do not need to contact the bank.

Banks and building societies across the industry have previously been shaking up their overdraft charging structures as they prepare to comply with new Financial Conduct Authority overdraft rules coming into force in April.

The rules mean that from April, banks can only charge overdraft users a simple annual interest rate – without additional fees and charges.

Many providers have previously announced their intention to charge overdraft interest of around 40%.

Can be a general blog - or blog by specialism be it metals, a uk sector etc

just thought it would be a fun addition to it for members

[sentimentrules] 29/3/2020 20:07

Decided to build a section to the forum that allows members to have own blog sections within it.

So lets say x person decides they want own blog on the platform. Easy open it (be in "member blogs" section). If ya build a good following in the community and decide to monetise it, i really dont care. you can do at the press of a button. Only thing is if you do that, the system will be looking for 10 posts per month minimum, outside of your blog on the public section. And obviously to maintain and grow followers, they need to be good quality for da public

What you think ? Just another function to it

[sentimentrules] 29/3/2020 19:03

Il go through that in a bit IDF - the reason being when considering the currency - you have to consider other positions too (currency hedged or not) - i tend to treat it all in a book aggregate than individual be it trades or an investment

....................

6 months is being kind too - but hopefully right

Hey SR, you can hold gold ETFs with different base currencies. Mine is all in wisdomtree etf PHGP. Base currency is GBP.
They also have one with a base currency in USD. Which do you hold and why?
The GBP ETF lost 2.4% on Friday. The USD lost 0.12%. Can you explain the cause of the variance?
