    wow Jen that's cool! Yukki do you know there are 2 scratchcards on both sites this morning? Like there are on Sundays.they do that sometimes so it's always worth checking after you have done one.
  • Morning all,

    For some reason I can't log into the Littlewoods account I made last night :( I've emailed customer services and I'm awaiting for their reply.

    I've got loadsss to do today. Stupid college set up the standing order wrong so I have to go and cancel that at the bank (it won't let me do it online) and then go up to the college and fill out a new standing order mandate. I have £9 of pennies all bagged up, does anyone know if Lloyds are funny about cashing them? :S

    Then to the post office as I have loads to post. The weather's horrible and rainy today, I'm not impressed. I hope my mam will give me a lift into town so I don't have to walk and get soaked.
  • Im trying to pay of my debt, so that the OH and I can be debt free, and think about starting a family

    Afternoon Everyone

    Sorry i havent been around much.

    Well done on your wins Lil Miss xx

    Well im in a very down mode today, a lot of companies similar to mine are letting people go. Thankfully I am the only admin support they have, so less likely to let me go, but then again I thought that with my job last year and I got made redundant 2 weeks before christmas.

    Trying not to worry too much about it, but it is worrying.

    Hope everyone is doing ok?

    Oooo some good news.

    I signed up to cashbankkings aaaggges ago, just refound my log in details and did Mecca bingo. Have just played through £10 and I have won £30 :eek: So with the £30 from cashbankkings i will earn £50. I am playing my last £2 on a bingo game... never know could be more. but i am more than happy with the £30 won :beer:

  • Well done to all the recent free bingo winners - we seem to be doing well! Amy I hope you feel better soon, I know it's easier said than done (I'm Queen of Worrying!), but try not to worry about it too much. Fingers crossed your job is safe x

    I contacted Littlewoods about them closing my bingo account and they said it was because I have more than one account, so they're transferring the balance from Littlewoods to Butlins. It seems they won't let me do more than one :( Never mind, it's still free money. I wonder why they haven't closed anyone else's accounts though? Did you use different emails for each account?
