£1000? Has this been given out yet?
Hi Guys,
Has the £1000 many people were talking about been sent out yet? I have not recieved anything.

Thanks

That will be in 2009, then, unless the IoM Treasury Dept is working over Christmas.
Can you tell me where Mike
Can you tell me where Mike Simpson's posting of December 23 is - can't find it or the forms asking for details. I did write to the bank a few weeks ago but haven't heard anything. Can we assume that the 1,000 pounds they're talking about will be distributed to all depositors?
