I assumed it was a mistake, rather than deliberate.

The OP raised his particular personal query on his new thread.

I thought netiquet was that one should not just tack on to another 
convenient post, but should continue in the existing thread.  If someone 
else does a search for Prudential, they are likely to get confused about 
'When you recommend using AqBanking' when no such recommendation was 
made by the OP.
