Actually no motch - I was with the ESI up to 12 months before they privatised, and took severance on the cusp as there was a 12 month delay I didn't get any shares - It's years ago I think it was a financial institution.....................the moneys long gone :sad:

Not TSB I think but something along those lines - Woolwich Building Society ? - I'm clutching at straws really though the date may be about right .......yes I think I may be heading for the old folks home sooner rather than later, mind having said that it is a quarter of a century ago. :sad:
