No you didn't, given that the govt has included funds that have been withdrawn and replaced, plus new funds deposited in the future - but only for accounts that existed on 19th September.
You predicted they'd weasel out of them (can't say I disagreed with you, mind).
To me, the fact that the govt was prepared to publicly specify such a 'generous' guarantee is just a sign that
1) they were sh1t scared of the potential fall-out if NR did go bust
2) they were always confident that it wouldn't actually be necessary to pay out
3) they were hoping for a PR bonus for helping out the victims among the public (but not the other banks, which I rather liked)
