Anyone heard of them / know anything?

Not replied / looked yet. You lot are more useful.

Meow - don't get offended, I still have your email about the offshore stuff and I will come to you first, probably.

Cheers

Considering the free advice I've given you, you ought to!

Yes, I know them, Many are ex- 'VD' (cf The Dean) people. One to be avoided.



Here's a handy tip. Avoid anyone who uses the stupid title of 'wealth manager'.

Autonomy

Quality.

Yeah - they called me a couple weeks ago - told them to sod off and speak to Meow... Maybe someone stole VD's database on the way out the door...

The free advice you gave me is stellar. I will be taking you for coffee at some point for more, just when I have a bit more cash to do something with, but that will come.

I don't know what the bold bit means?

Meow

It's a sort of code for a particular company who cannot be named for legal reasons. (Because they are sensitive to all the well-deserved negative criticism!). A switching of initials coined by The Dean.

Think I have had 3 calls, but each time suggested they stop wasting both my time, and theirs.

The Dean

No - she means I used to have VD but don't any more............

See, I told you that doctor I used before was good. Did he use the acid bath and steel brush method on you too?

Global Eye are pissing me of at the minute

The Dean

Ah yes...............

"Hello [uses my first name, without being invited to], I'm calling to ask if you have written a Sharia-compliant will."

"I don't need one. I have no assets here, and I have a will in the UK."

"You still would benefit from a Sharia-compliant will."

"Why?"

"Er........ well............ "

CLICK.

That always makes me laugh.

I'd feel like a really self important knob if I expected to be called Mr. xxxx

Each to their own I suppose.

Meow

Of FFS. There is really no such thing as a sharia compliant will.

Confucius

Of course not...One takes the belongings with them to the other side...

Norm_uk

I heard you can buy thing on the other side now so it's best to bring cash.

Confucius

True...They've been having a hard time with credit card implementation - the telecom link between there and here is not very robust...
