Quick Heads Up

I'm just one person running Scrimpr, not a big company or financial advisor.

I make these information and comparison pages because I genuinely enjoy researching financial products and helping UK households make informed decisions. But here's what you should know:

  • Not financial advice: I'm sharing information, not telling you what to do with your money
  • Affiliate links: Some links here are referral/affiliate links - I may earn a small commission at no extra cost to you
  • Always check T&Cs: Offers change. Read the full terms on each platform before signing up
