Does anyone know if there are any other Money Management sites similar to Egg Money Management and Yahoo Finance. Since I've had a VoIP Adapter on my system the Egg ActiveX page trashes my ADSL connection, so I went to Yahoo Finance. This works fine as far as it goes, but unfortunately there is a problem with accessing Co-op Bank Accounts. So I'd be interested to know if there any others...

Are there any ready reports available on the UK retail banking industry? how the industry is going to shape up in the next 5 years... (exclude the investment banks, hedge funds and private wealth management) especially lookinf for info on key players (HSBC, Barclays, Lloyds, RBS, Abbey National) -market size ( rev & employees) , growth projections -PEST factors +legal & envtal -recent market...

News today that only 6% of the 200,000 new jobs created in the past year are full-time, and part of the problem is that there are lower financial obligations for workers who work less hours, why do employers not just pay people cash in hand and tell them they must be responsible for their own tax and NI? I understand there is some issue with 'contractors' but I don't understand it, but would...

Just tried to shred some old paper trails and found an old savings book with a balance of £1100.00. Is there somewhere a way of computing the value without loading 300 odd Bank of England base rate changes since 1981? ( My wife can't remember squirreling the money away, but I am just curious as to todates value!) Naturally, I am also pleased to save this document from the shredder :-) Fred

Where can I find the interest rate that the UK is charged on its national debt, and comparative figures for the rest of Europe? Also a chart graphing their progress over time would be helpful! Thanks

I own a property that was my main home and is now let. The proportion to PPR (even including the last three years) is now such that I'm on the edge of paying CGT were I to sell and it gets worse year by year even if the propery doesn't rise in value (or even falls). Basically PPR + residental lettings relief + annual CGT allowance = Gain. I'd like to crystallize my gains and I'd be interested...

Can't find anything online, everything seems to want to calculate liability for the year. My sister is temping and the only way to get wageslips is online; the agency website is being overhauled so she can't access her wageslip for the last two week's work. In a nutshell, she worked 84 hours @ £9 an hour and she's had £632.40 paid into her bank account.

An owner of an investment property makes a gift of half of the property to two family members before selling it. Will the CG on the original cost of the property to the final sale price be shared equally between the three? Is the valuation of the property at the time of making the gift of any relevance other than for stamp duty?

Hi all My understanding is that there is now a guarantee on savings for each "institution" to cover £85000 in savings for an individual. As an executor of my late father's accounts, do the savings I am holding in an account for future dispersal count as part of my own savings allocation? Also, if the total of my father's savings exceed £85000 can I split this between 2 institutions to avoid...

Basic details of how it would be funded are given below. http://www.financialreform.info/f_r_free_travel.html

Could anyone please enlighten me on these questions: 1. What is the purpose of reporting the disposal of assets worth more than 4 times the annual exempt amount? Would I still be taxed if my actual gains is less than the exempt amount? 2. Do I have to report gifts received anywhere in my tax return? For example, if my dad gave me £10,000 do I have to declare it (and where)?

Currently, it's still saying winnings up to Dec 2010 when I put in my holder number. Last month I checked at the start of the month and didn't notice and assumed I hadn't won until the warrant arrived at the end of the month. Also, currently on the High Value Winners page there is "Higher value winners for November 2010"

We live in a purpose built block of 36 flats near Heathrow. The lease states that all leaseholders should pay the service charge within 6 months of the end of the previous financial year - that is by September. The lease also states that the formally audited service charge accounts should also be sent to all leaseholders by then. The managing agents are estate agents. The owner of the...

We were chatting over lunch about these rare occasions when you end up with a £90m jackpot because it's rolled over half a dozen times or so. Assume for the sake of argument that the ticket cost is still £1.50 and there's no Mickey Mouse raffle. The odds are something like 1 in 76 million? So, hypothetically, why did no-one ever borrow £114 million and buy every single combination of numbers?

Hi all I'm foreign in the UK. Thanks if any body can help me. I used to live in London, then moved to the different city. My situation looks like I've applied fro credit card, and my previous address has some problem! I have no idea, as somebody used to live there before me. What I have to do? Who I have to contact? I want report somewhere or do something as in future I'm going to buy some...

For those that wish it, the facility to have any prizes that one wins paid directly into a nominated bank account has become available. NS&I appear to have launched new services of phone and online access. They already have online access for their ISA, but are now doing Premium Bonds as well. Part of the online access is payment of prizes into a nominated bank and email notification. ...
