    what is the point of all the e mails you send as I recently ordered 3 x 50p c0ins for my grandchildren and today I had a letter to say that you are unable to accept my order as you already have an active account at this address. The letter was addressed to mrs d hill and I am b hill but there is no other female at my address. So your e mails are a waste of time so please take me off your mailing list.

    When do the old £10 notes become obsolete?

      Hi Ian, the Bank of England haven’t officially said yet – although it will be some time in the first half of 2018. Thanks, Robin.
