    More room for your little one to play then :)

    I am well happy as i joined ING Direct savings via a referral on here and just checked the account and its gone in so thats £25 and the referrer is giving me £10 of his, yay £35 free! Not sure whether to keep in the savings once the tenner has come through or put towards loan.

    The offer isn't running at the moment it ended end of August but if you want an alliance and leicester current account i can refer you to that, have to pay in £500 per month though (but you can pay in and take it out straight away)

    You can earn £125 from that!

    If ING do the referral thing i will let you know, i think they do it quite often and give each person 3 referrals :)

    I think i will transfer the money into my current account once i have the extra from my referrer to go towards loan although i need to check the interest rate as website says 6.5% and my letters say 6.25%.

    If its 6.5% i will use that one as my Tesco one is only 6.25%.

    First thing i do once debt free though is get an ISA :)
