LOL, he has spent the last 2 years telling anyone who will listen that you will get these charges back, only for the establishment to look after its own quelle suprise. I imagine he feels a proper charlie right now.....

That said, he is mustard on a lot of areas where people are just too lazy to save themselves a few bob. I do tend to listen.

Martin Lewis also advised switching your bank account to the Icelandic banks to benefit from their unfeasably high interest rates, quick back pedalling job done there as well when they went down the tubes.

I would rather go for a drink with Hitler personally. Expect Lewis would be a right cheapskate at the bar probably finding some loophole for a free 1/2 pint.

I wonder how much he's made from peddling shíte down the years.

And I wonder if his disciples still think laying everyone in the FGS market is a good idea :^0

I've used his site for years especially the forums but some of the advice I've already thought of and it's annoying when Joe Public knows my tricks.

For example "stoozing", I was doing it for at least 5 years before they thought of a name for it. Made me thousands 'til sites like his told everyone how to do it.

Not sure but it was entertaining watching them claim one minute how much 'free money' they had made then the panic/fear set in... shame betfair let them off :(

I can imagine him being out with his girlfriend who puts him on a promise but suggests getting some durex from the pub's loos.

lol, reckon he probably uses the withdrawal method.

Don't know if it's true, but there was a standing joke that his followers got into the habit of not turning the toilet light on.

Martin Lewis' money saving tips are great:

Don't waste money on a hat, just go out in a field on a hot sunny day and pick up a nice big crusty cow pat.

Why spend money on food when you can cut your stomach out with a knife?

Don't spend £100 per time on prostitutes, give your local tramp a fiver to tug you off whilst you shut your eyes and listen to Girls Aloud on your ipod.

Thanks Mart.

It was the arrogance of them. They were saying things like, "This is so easy. How stupid are the people on Betfair?"

:^0

Of course, I was out that afternoon and couldn't fill my boots.

As i said nothing against the guy but i have never seen someone so angry. He could not believe it. I'd say he was already to go with how much he saved people. The fact that the govt are involved in the banks now id say a judge was given some sweetner. It would have cost the banks billions id say.
