How to join, FAQs and more
MSE has recently updated the technology of the Forum, which will require you to reset your password if you were registered on or before 6 February 2020. For a step-by-step guide to logging in to the new Forum for the first time, click this link to skip down this page.


It's an amazing place with a huge wealth of helpful info and friendly people. But remember it's open to all, content isn't officially checked out by MSE and anyone can post on it.
Millions read the forum and 100,000s post the equivalent of 30+ paperback books on it every day. With 150 boards and sub-boards, it's a wealth of information with a huge community of MoneySavers, including...
The Old Stylers who discuss everything from war-time rationing to white vinegar.
The Debt-free Wannabe Diarists detailing their latest triumphs in cutting their debt.
Bargainistas sharing the latest deals and tips on the hugely popular Grabbit board, voucher and code finds on Discount Codes 'n Vouchers and the Freebies board.
So now you've decided to join the Forum, log in and join in!

If you want to join in with an existing conversation, click the 'reply' button at the bottom of the discussion thread, write your reply and submit.
If you're looking for discussions about specific subjects, our advanced search will help you. Just complete the fields as appropriate.
Remember too that forumites mustn't do anything to spoil others' enjoyment of the site. Please exercise caution, do your own research and report any post or private message (PM) that you feel is inappropriate, illegal or offensive to forumteam@moneysavingexpert.com.
Please read and stick to the MSE Forum rules
We're a very friendly forum – a community of MoneySavers all here to help each other save money in a welcoming, non-judgemental environment.
To keep it friendly, we have an overarching set of Forum Rules. Please help us help you by reading them carefully before you join.
Welcome to the MSE Forum!
The MSE Forum tech was upgraded on 7th February 2020 and we moved all 1.9 million user accounts across to new Forum software. For security reasons, we did not transfer passwords across so they will need to be reset when you first log in (that's only if you registered before the move started on 6 February 2020).
If you have not yet logged in to the new Forum, you will need to enter the email address associated with your account into the password recover form to request a new password. You will then receive instructions and a link to reset your password by email.
