I see what you did there!

You can access the Government HTB ISA Bonus once you've saved £1,600. You can save £200 pcm with an extra £1,000 deposit also allowed in the first month. If you opened one today, you could be accessing your £400 bonus on 2 May 2018! 29 March Pay in £1,200, 1 April £200, 1 May £200 = £1,600 Even if you were putting an offer in today it would still be worth opening an HTB ISA as it's likely you would qualify for the bonus before your house purchase was complete. £800 free money for a couple!

+1 Good to hear from you and that you're ok Venger.

I follow @Venger on Twitter. I DMed him / her on 20 February as I was a little concerned that there were no postings on here from them since 25 January 2018. On Twitter their last tweet is 1 January 2018 so maybe a New Year's Resolution to just stop. I haven't yet had a reply on Twitter which is a little worrying. Hope everything is ok. I miss their postings and contributions here on HPC.

Hi Sancho, I missed this yesterday with all the excitement with Provident Financial. I would love to run another auction as it seems things are getting interesting but unfortunately I don't have the time - each auction takes a few hours to collect the data and set-up. I'm happy to make the original code I used ( Excel workbook with VBA so fairly easy to edit / update ) available if anyone ( Roman Roady? ) wants to have a go but it looks like EIGroup have changed their website substantially in the intervening period. I'm looking forward to the next auction update! M21er
