• £300 Free Cash for Switching your Bank Account
Santander will pay you a whopping £100 if you open a Current Account online and move your banking using their dedicated Switching Service. Even better, if you are an existing mortgage account customer and switch your current account, you'll get £200. This goes up to £300 if you can also deposit at least £10,000 in Santander savings. You also get a 0% EAR (variable) overdraft with no Daily Arranged Overdraft Fees for 12 months. After 12 months the overdraft will cost 50p per day, capped at 10 days in each monthly statement period. This assumes an Arranged Overdraft credit limit of £1,200, but the actual amount may differ.

• TPC Fax
This is a collection of FAX servers you may use to send a fax by e-mail to many locations around the world for free! Once you have checked that where you want to send a fax has coverage (which you can do by checking a list of countries on their site or by using their online number validator) you can send a fax from any email application by simply sending an email to remote-printer.recipient_name@fax_number.iddd.tpc.int
(Replace 'recipient.name' with the name of the person you're faxing and 'fax_number' with the fax number.) You don't have to register either. The only downside is the cover page of the fax has an advertisement on the bottom. However, the message page itself doesn't have an ad.
