Sometimes it is easier to just ask for an increase to your credit limit. The other money will eventually clear.

Thanks PP. Yes, might do that anyway, as 2000€ doesn't go that far if I do something sensible like buying a new bike. I wasn't sure how long a hold on funds lasted before expiring without further action. Annoyingly, it doesn't appear anywhere on my online banking account (as far as I can see), though the (real) person in the bank on Friday could see it on her screen.

Seems like the best solution. Institutions are more than happy to extend credit for those with a good record. Bad records too come to that. 😢

I'll limit by comments on the BAnksy by repeating, yet again, that English Judges do not have gavels.

I think Hallett can mean different things to different people.

( it can mean different things to me, depending on whether it's blue or black).

Am I missing something? Maybe we're desperately short of anaesthetists.

the incident involving Nurse C “had the potential to distract Dr Anjum … and he may not have been able to give his full attention to the patient’s care”.

Actually we are. There are an estimated 1900 vacancies.
