Apologies for my ignorance but can I ask what is meant by fast Stoozing? Maybe we can set up a glossary page somewhere for all the Stoozing terms lol. The website used to hold a load of information and guides. But unfortunately we now require an FSA certificate as proof we are trained in financial ...

Re: Closed account

They are encouraged if not legally required now to help you with your finances, like closing accounts down. They will do the same with current accounts and savings I think!

Re: New CC application, should I lower existing card limit and apply at bank with existing accounts?

Re: MBNA / Fluid Card Question

Re: Tesco Direct to charge for click+collect orders

I thought they always charged? Or is this not groceries?
