Answer 1 :
My bank (natwest) has never screwed up or made any errors, its simply done its job and done it well. Customer service is excellent and i think the best bank to deal with. They helped me out when i was stuck in a bit of a financial rut and have made my banking life easy as pie!
Answer 2 :
it was not a mistake they made, it was like the stupidest rule they made! I was made to pay £10 administration fee for something that I can't remember now, but I didn't agree to it and had told them to stop it. They agreed that I needn't pay it. However, my account was still charged £10, and that made me overdraft £0.02, as I didn't have any overdraft facility, I then was charged a further fine of £35 for 2 penny overdraft (which was NOT even my fault)!!! Anyway, I called them (natwest) and the lady who answered the phone was quite helpful. She promised to return me the £10 first as it was not my wish to have that service in the first place, and then she stopped the fine £35 being takeny from my account. So i guess my account at that time was £9.98 on balance. Haha... Wasn't too bad, was it? I didn't get any compensation though???? But you have got to watch out the bank charges!! it's not legal most of the time!
Answer 3 :
One bank made a mortgage payment one month after I sold my house. They were very apologetic and actually asked me how much compensation I wanted - I said £300 and she said yes straight away. The questions caught me off guard and I wish I had said more. another time I gave the bank an account number and asked them to pay £400 into it. The girl on the desk made a mistake and sent it to someone elses account. The bank said that they would make contact with this person and ask them to return the money and then they would pay it back to me. I said no way, return my money by the close of business, which they did.

How easy is it to jump between yahoo accounts?
How easy is it to jump between yahoo accounts?
Hi, I use Yahoo for a personal email account and a work one (I am a freelancer). Does anyone know how I can move between them both without logging out of each one each time, and can I set up an alert to come into my personal account when I get an email into my work account? THANKS!

Answer 1 :
I have had two accounts on yahoo answers open at the same time on the same computer by opening them in two different browsers. One is open using Firefox and the other using Explorer for example.
Answer 2 :
yeah, open 2 explorer pages and log into both. Assuming you have IE 7 that is. If you don't, download firefox which will allow you to have mutiple pages open. As for alerts, set that up through outlook.

What happens if an email is automatically forwarded to an account that forwards back to you automatically?
What happens if an email is automatically forwarded to an account that forwards back to you automatically?
So both accounts have automatic forwarders... Does it keep going round in a loop until your inbox is full up? If so, how quick would this happen? Anyone ever tried this?

Answer 1 :
Epic. Imma try this.
Answer 2 :
Somehow, most programs that I've seen are smart enough to realize a message has been auto-forwarded and they don't auto-forward it again. You could try this with 2 Gmail accounts and they don't do this.
Answer 3 :
Most mail systems have blocks built in that will only forward a message a number of times , they do this by stamping a tag onto the mail as its forwarded so this exact situation can not happen and bring the mail server down.
Answer 4 :
ermmm...never happened to me and no-one else i know...... think your on your own mate :)
Answer 5 :
One would fill up. Quite quickly: within a few hours I would guess with a 1GB limit.
Answer 6 :
I believe it will only send one automatic reply each way.
