Lloyds

Lloyds Bank is yet again the worst of the major banks and building societies for wrongly rejecting both payment protection insurance (PPI) and other banking complaints, new figures from the Financial Ombudsman Service show.

Virgin Money's best-buy 0% for debt shifts, new spending and money transfers (cash loans) now has a £50 freebie too and there are ways to manipulate it so you don't need to spend big to get it. But hurry, the deal ends at 23.59 on Thursday.

MoneySavingExpert.com and Which? have submitted a joint letter to the financial regulator expressing "serious concern" at media reports it's considering introducing a time bar on PPI complaints.

Lloyds Banking Group has set aside an extra £1.4 billion to cover payment protection insurance (PPI) mis-selling claims, financial figures released today reveal.

The pound's hit it's best rate against the euro for eight years, meaning holidaymakers tripping to Europe find it far cheaper than in recent memory. Currently it's hovering around £1 buys €1.43 - €1.44, a year ago it would've bought you just €1.24.

The financial crisis in Greece and ensuing euro worries mean the pound is currently buying €1.41 – a seven year record high. This would've been unthinkable this time last year when you'd have done well to get €1.25 and two years ago when €1.17 would've been worth whooping about.
