Does anyone know if this is still going? I have been paying by standing order for about 2 years but never see any results or winners listed anywhere. I have emailed the guy who started it but have had no reply.

I've emailed Brian, using the correct email this time (!) and hopefully all is going to be sorted out & I will be refunded.

Red Ray do you think your money for the victory bond might have been going into the reds donation account maybe some one down the club could check this for you .There could be a other fans who have been doing the same .Best of luck with it

Red Ray do you think your money for the victory bond might have been going into the reds donation account maybe some one down the club could check this for you .There could be a other fans who have been doing the same .Best of luck with it Like others, I've continued to pay by monthly standing order for my VB numbers, up until last month when I cancelled it at my end. Apparently Brian is working to close the receiving account down and repay any monthly payments that have been made since the last VB draw took place (which I understand was prior to the 1st lockdown). However, what was stated to me was that then account cannot be closed until confirmation of all the payment standing orders going into that account have been cancelled. So it's a bit chicken and egg, as apparently the Cumberland (receiving) account details do not specific enough adequate detail of who's still making the payments into the VB account (This does seem hard to believe, but I've heard this before with Cumberland BS accounts). So, if you are still making an automated monthly payment for your VB number, please cancel your standing order and get in touch with Brian White. |

Not really sure anyone can assist greatly with this down at the Club as I understand the VB was run via the previous RDF (Reds Development Fund) Cumberland Account. No-one now active in the Club has access to this account, so hence with issues Brian is having to get that account closed, repayments calculated and paid back. |

This sounds like bull, ive worked for a Bank for 13 years and never heard of anything like this. There is no way any account holder could ever prove all payment instructions going into an account have ceased, you have no control over them. That's like someone refusing to to buy your house off you until you can prove no-one is ever going to send you post to that address again. Had a quick look at General Current and Savings account T&C on their website and mentions no such requirement under section 18 www.cumberland.co.uk/neon/download/file/pdfs/Cumberland-Account-Conditions.pdf |

Agree with Ash. Pure bullshit!!
A smokescreen, this should have been resolved a year ago when NO info was forthcoming. Trying to get info at the time was like trying to get blood out of a stone. I stopped paying when I got no response to my requests even after winning a prize!!

The organiser is a regular poster to this forum. I'm sure he would welcome the opportunity to come on and explain....

I've provided details of my account and also those of the destination account where my payments have been going. Still waiting for the refund though. |
