I've just received my bank statement through the post to be greeted by a long list of charges - yet again. Even when I paid for a hire car on my debit card, they managed to charge me for the useless reason of being over my limit for a matter of hours. This is pure daylight robbery and I'm sick of it. For a long time now this issue has been bugging me and I have fought every legal way I know to...
Attempts are being made through UK governments to have any use of a mobile phone, including hands free, to be banned. However, it is thought that this will be virtually impossible to enforce.
Consumers who are careful considerate drivers have taken against this. They argue that if they cannot have a phone conversation with the use of Bluetooth then surely they cannot have any in car...
Death, whether it be through the cessation of the heartbeat or non-functioning of the brain, is final. This is the point for which life cover is normally paid out. However, there is the possibility of this becoming complicated in the future.
Long term, or life threatening illnesses, also bring about claims from life cover companies when a critical illness cover is included. This also has the...
Life insurance for children has always been a particularly delicate subject to broach but is more frequently something that should be considered.
Childhood illnesses and accidents are something that occur frequently despite medical breakthroughs and many parents will be taking leave from work to care for their sick child, bringing financial hardship on the entire family. This is where life...
I don't know about you but wherever I drive in my town, there is a plethora of road traffic police checking up on car tax.
Despite this, one in twenty vehicles on the road is still untaxed and undetected. I can be quite sure if I ever tried to get away with car tax, even for a day, they'd find me! To cover this shortfall in revenue, costs of 214 pounds million were put on the law abiding car...
When life insurance companies are assessing a customer for risk in order to work out their premiums, they would do well to carefully consider the person's sexual history. Many young people go through a period of lax sexual behaviour but this can have a detrimental effect on their future health.
Sexually transmitted diseases are mostly curable these days. However, they still carry a stigma...
With ever increasing life insurance premiums, it is a priority to keep health to an optimum for financial, as well as health, reasons. Early detection of illness and disease brings a better prognosis, if you or your local health authority can afford it. Pay outs of life insurance for long term illness are possible and could contribute towards the cost of health care.
Much has been made in...
Can you remember years ago when you would go to the beach with your granddad and he would have to wear his prescription glasses so he could see you but then he would clip on those hideous flip down sun shade creations over the top? As if that didn't look bad enough, he would spend half his time with them flipped up looking like he could get half the beach population under there.
This was...
My husband calls it prioritising. I call it being lazy. I have never seen him do more than one thing at a time. God knows how he gets by at work but at home he makes an issue out of having to lift his feet so I can vacuum beneath them, while joggling the baby on my hip to keep him quite and stirring the spag bol to make sure it doesn't burn all on top of helping little Daniel with his homework....
I've had my house on the market for some time now. The housing market is slow, I've been told, and I've followed all the advice of neutralising the decorating so prospective buyers can see themselves living there. All rubbish if you ask me, it doesn't seem to be making a difference to the viewers. I have to say, I like the new decorating but it seems I am the only one.
Ok, so the outside...
