The Money Programme: DIY RIP and The Five Billion Pound Protection Racket - XB005/DVD09Two episodes from the popular BBC2 series
DIY RIP
DIY giant B&Q is in trouble as IKEA expands onto the High Street. It's all part of our disillusionment with DIY as we prefer to buy our style off the shelf and when we have those tricky jobs to do GSI instead - that's 'get someone in'. So is this the death of DIY?
The Five Billion Pounds Protection Racket
The latest scam from the High Street banks? Charge us £5billion for insurance that's very unlikely to pay out if we need it. That's the verdict on the long-running scandal of payment protection insurance which is now being investigated by the OFT and the FSA. This programme investigates how the big banks have got away with this financial rip-off for so long.
