My Overdaft Has Been Suspended
I received this scam from someone claiming to be Egg. I also received it four times. And overdraft was spelt the same in each. I don’t have an overdaft. but I suspect they are!
Note that a link in the e-mail points to a German web site. Perhapd, it’s to unsettle English fans before tomorrow. I don’t think it was sent by Germans though, as all the ones I know can spell better than that!

Woody Allen Resigns From The NRA
I doubt that Woody Allen would ever want to join, just as I wouldn’t join any such violently pro-gun organisation as the NRA, but after seeing his latest film, Whatever Works, they certainly wouldn’t welcome him now.
Three of us went and saw the film in Cambridge, this afternoon and we all enjoyed it immensely.
I was very pleased with the film, but then does it fit my mood at present after the stroke? Many of the one-liners also hit the same targets that I like to attack. The reviews of the film were actually not very positive, but then I doubt many reviewers have the right experience of life to appeciate it. But this guy does think it a very good film.
An Advantage for the Zopa Borrower
I recently had an e-mail from Zopa, asking if I’d mind if one of my borrowers could change their repayment day, as they had changed jobs and now got their salary on a different day of the month.
How civilised? And of course I had no reason at all to object.
I wonder how Big Bank plc would have responded to the same request! They would probably have charged you for the privilege!
It all illustrates how banking will change in the next few years, driven by innovators like Zopa.
