Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch
or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

Sure I've asked this before, but what way round should my debit and credit column be, or doesn't it matter?

I have debit then credit - and I'm sure I did it that way round for a reason. Santander statements download as "Money in" then "Money Out"...

Debit on the left. Old joke is it's the one nearest the window.

Thanks. I suspect I had it that way round because I’ve asked you before, in which case sorry.

What's the term again for an account that isn't really an account but a column in a spreadsheet? I was going to phone Glenn but I'm not sure how to do that from my laptop.

It'll come to me if I type long enough

Duplicate post on retirement thread and accounting-for-non-specialists thread - sorry
----

One has a SIPP. One 'crystallises' (?) the tax free bit and this is called a PCLS (pension commencement lump sum), yes?

What's the rest of it called? Does it have a technical name?

Not that I know of. Even the terminology for PCLS is different on my accounts.

Got something to say?
