doqit

Millions of people in the UK have less than £100 in savings, making “saving money” one of the top resolutions being made this year. But where to start? It was music to my ears to hear Claer Barrett, Consumer Editor at Financial Times, share that ‘being organised’ is the key. She was sharing some great nuggets earlier on this morning’s Lorraine show. Here’s my favourites: - Many people are out of contract on their mobile phone meaning money leaking that could be going to savings. Text the word INFO to 85705 to find out when your contract ends. - Car insurance has gone through the roof. Get the best deal by shopping around 21 - 28 days before the renewal date. This applies for other insurances; otherwise you risk expensive rollover costs. - Check your subscriptions. A great piece of advice is to pause the streaming services you’re not using. And, make sure they’re not being paid by more than one person in the household - remember the doqit user who discovered Disney+ was being paid three times each month 🤯 Other savings can be made via your employee perks, Heka, Blue Light, Perks at Work all offer money off a range of products and services. We’ve busy lives with being more organised being more difficult than before … you know what I’m going to say! doqit is a simple, easy way to help be more organised. Paperwork, dates, reminders all in one place at your fingertips. And now available on iOS and Android. Is saving more on your 2025 resolutions list? If so, make it easier by being more organised 🎉 Whatever your resolution, wishing you and yours a very Happy New Year and all the best for 2025.

In the background, a modern city skyline is illuminated by the glow of the fireworks, adding depth and excitement to the scene. The overall mood is celebratory and full of hope for the year ahead.)

Usually at the end of the year, I jump into the next full of plans for what's ahead. Seldom reflecting on what's been achieved, what lessons I've learned, and what's simply brought me joy. Often worried that I might feel disappointed by what I didn't achieve, or what didn't happen. But! I decided not do that this year; and in January focussed my mind on two words, and planned to review myself as 2024 closed. My words were - Growth, and - Inclusion Here's a (very abridged) version of how the 12 months panned out... Kicking off in January. My family and I had the privilege of meeting Dame Stephanie Shirley. The photo of her and Chloe together fills me with joy. Something I never imagined could happen - my two inspirations together. Thanks to Lynn Hart for making this happen. February I took myself out my comfort zone and did a one minute open mic in front of around 120 people with The StartUp Events at Somerset House, 99% of whom I'd never met. March celebrating International Women’s Day. Thank you Helena Wardle, Women in Platforms, for inviting me to speak about this year's theme 'Inspire Inclusion'. It was an honour to share first hand why true inclusion matters in all aspects of our lives. After a period of feeling 'stuck', April saw me investing in myself and committing to work with growth specialist Thea Brook, CMA Brook. A game changing decision that helped me regain focus and confidence. May my birthday month saw four weeks of solid research - and three podcast recordings! In June, I was delighted to share a double page spread of life admin tips in Closer Magazine. The juggle of Summer break in July was made a pleasure when doqit was awarded a Smart Data Foundry & FinTech Scotland Innovation award of £50,000. August started the transformation of taking doqit to the App Stores. And an opportunity for me to meet another of my heros, Kris Foster, as he was heading off to Paris to cheer Team GB Paralympians. In September we launched our new doqit branding. An updated look to align with our goals and aspirations. Thank you Freddie. Being featured as part of the #YouveGotWhatItTakes Female Founders Rise campaign in October felt super special and important. Collectively we WILL move the needle on female founded and led businesses. And watch out for this campaign going nationwide in 2025 .... I've a feeling. Then, with more than a little trepidation we did a soft launch in November to our existing users. Seeing doqit live on the App Store (naturally Chloe pushed the go live button) was a moment where I nearly burst with pride. Finally, finishing off the year working with my incredible daughter Chloe and Project Nemo. It was a privilege to work with the team to make 'Chloe's Story - Topping Up Independence', supporting the drive for greater inclusion across financial services, banking, and payments. 2024's been a great year, and what have I learned? This is just the beginning! Here's to A Happy, Healthy, 2025 xx

Tis the season to be a little more careful when shopping. Here’s why… A survey carried out by Which in 2020 highlighted that ~40% of consumer reported having misplaced or failed to register a warranty for a product they had purchased. And although many companies offer digital warranty options, physical documents are still widely used and are prone to ending in the recycling with packaging, not being registered. This numbers spikes for particularly electronic goods bought during busy times like Christmas, when paperwork is more likely to be overlooked. So what’s the impact? - At worst Financial Loss: Without a warranty, consumers bear the full cost of repairs or replacements for defective products. This can be substantial, especially for high-value items like electronics. - At Best Frustration & Inconvenience: Losing a warranty creates stress when trying to resolve product issues and complaints. It can also extend resolution times as many retailers require proof of purchase or registration. - Increased Unnecessary Waste: When warranties are unavailable, consumers often discard faulty products instead of getting them repaired adding to increasing landfill. What can you do? - Register the warranty as quickly as possible. - When gifting pop the warranty in a separate envelope. Keep a copy with the receipt yourself (just in case). - Take a quick snap and pop your warranties and receipts in tools like doqit. Two minutes is all it takes to make sure your season is filled with goodwill 🎄 (Alt Text image shows a man wearing a red suit with a long white beard. The suit has a broad dark belt and he’s wearing white gloves. Sitting beside him a light haired lady wearing a dark jumper. She is holding a bell in her right hand. The scene feels very festive).
