I was wondering the same thing - did he get his money out of IceSave in time?

Don't think so - I think he said they reversed the transaction or something....

I feel really sorry for him - all those years' earnings in danger of being lost. I don't think the UK government will let the savers down, but it's still a huge concern. I've got some sizeable funds with Nationwide, who are one of the more conservative institutions... and so I was shocked to see that they were of the 8 lined up to get assistance from the £500bn UK 'bailout'!

Unpredictable in every way
And forever more, that's how you'll stay
That's why, Disco, it's incredible
That someone so Unpredictable
Thinks that I am Unpredictable too.....

They reversed his transfer out of Icesave, same here but for a lot less money. No news yet on when you'll get your money, I suspect the powers that be are preoccupied with other tulip hitting the fan now.

But HSBC was forced into it - although it does not need the money. The idea is that everyone stands together to restore confidence.

Its working a treat...

He was the author of his own problems, but I wish him luck. It just shows that financial education should be provided in schools to get people off to a good start. The first thing they can teach is the limits of deposit guarantees and not to trust foreigners.
