  1. It is hassle. Until your circumstances change and you're stuck in a 24 month deal. How do you make secure payments on the internet without a credit card? debit card. I dont have a credit card either. You really should use a credit card for online purchases because of all the extra protection they offer.
  2. Don't renew. Separate your contract from your handset.
  3. Pointless speculation thread. Feel free to create a new one if a takeover happens.
  4. you say that, but in reality if it hadn't been for twitter I wouldn't have known that 2 stars from TOWIE were opening the new Morrisons in Ruislip Yes, but how do you feel about that?
  5. Yes. Daley Thompson was a successful and popular decathlete in the early 1980's, he made a fortune from sales of Daley Thompson's Decathlon on the Spectrum and is now worth £20b. It was lucky that he had the same name.

    From the Bible People killed by God: approx 2.4 million People killed by Satan: 10 (all sanctioned by God as part of a bet) Even from God's own book, it's not always easy to work out which one is supposed to be the good guy. Should have got a better editor.

    Aqua never explained where "I'm a Barbie girl" came from. I'll ask Rob next time he's in the pub.

    Stop using your tablet or phone an hour before you want to go to sleep.
  11. A will isn't a contract nor an enduring power of attorney. Once the estate is divided up, it is divided up. Your hypothetical example doesn't make sense. If he puts in his will that 50% of his assets go to his wife and 50% is divided between the kids then that's up to him. If he tries to put in a clause like "my wife gets 100% but has to give 50% to the kids if she remarries" then it's completely unenforceable. Regardless of what the will says, his wife is entitled to legally inherit and can contest a will which says something different. Ultimately it's down to a magistrate to decide. A solicitor is adding no value for the OP as the OP has no unusual requirements. If you don't want to do business with using a particular website, then use another, buy a kit or just write it yourself.

  13. A friend needs a battery with ridiculous life. How long does your Note3 last under heavy use? Particularly calls. And can it charge from QI pads?
  14. Does it sync between devices properly?
  15. If you are dead, how are you going to claim? It's a website that lets you create a declaration. There's nothing more to a will than that for most people. If someone wants to challenge your will then they will regardless of who has written it. Either their claim will have merit or it won't. The will makes almost no difference to that process. If you think in some way that using someone based in the UK will make any difference (it won't, there is no such jurisprudence as UK), then that is your choice. All a will is is a declaration of how you would like your possessions to be apportioned at your death. Any will can be challenged and a magistrate will only use your will as a guide to what you wanted. Of itself it does not overrule any other element of deed, entitlement or covenant If you are married and leave everything to a charity and your wife challenges it then your will will be set aside. It is important to have a will compared with not having a will if you have no family, but that's about it. In England and Wales anyway. There's a lot of nonsense talked about wills. The OP doesn't need a will unless he would like to do something other than leave everything to hs family.
  16. We are Associate Members of the Society of Willwriters. We are UK-based Portology Ltd. BVI-Incorporated. Company No. 656948 Head Office address: 14 Britannia Place, Bath Street, St Helier, Jersey Seems legit. Go to a proper solicitor as you say, there'll be a cheap, will specialist in most towns, governed by the Law Society. Indeed, it seems legit. So why use a local solicitor? A will is just a declaration. You can write your own. It's a good idea to get it independently witnessed. Unless you have something unusual it's not worth spending money on.
  17. http://tenminutewill.co.uk/ from memory they are drawn up by solicitor and unless you have unusual needs (you don't list any) then I don't see why you'd pay more.
  18. I'm pretty sure Villa won't be at the World Cup.
  19. Your ratings and reactions please. Keep it respectful even if you know everyone else is wrong. The thread will open automatically at the end of the game. A poll will be added later.
