No, they are probably drawing up plans as to how they can fire you out, as you are a considerable liability as far as the pension blackhole is concerned.

As above you get a brochure full of cheap stuff. :d'oh!

Best to get the £60 Argos vouchers. I put them towards a speed camera detector which has saved my bacon a few times since. :pray

At least its something i guess.

Edit, might have been £80 cant rem :d'oh!

Mick you get a brochure which will give you a choice of goods the best option is picking the £80 worth of High Street vouchers. The big plus in my opinion is the extra leave 6 weeks in total from april.
