    Sorry to hear about your cousins husband maria that is terrible- damn right life is to short.

    Some good news today as I have been in my job a year I get a 20p per hour pay rise..and I got my rebate....but might not actually get my money in my account tomorrow as we have had major computer probs at work today and wages won't be done til tonight...so might not be debt free tomorrow after all bum!
    Also posted a letter this morning and forgot to put a stamp on it-doh!! Luckily I know who I'm sending it to and she's ok with paying the charge and I'll refund her.

  • Hi all,

    My day has gone from bad to worse. I dunno if anyone saw my post earlier about the zero feedback buyer. Well they paid for the item again (as they 'proved' they were a powerseller - and I fell for it)... I have since sent the goods. Got back to an email from the real owner of the paypal account emailed me to say that his account and paypal have been hacked and to call him.

    I told him what happened and he said the police want to talk to me as his account has been used fraudulently! So not only have I lost £30 of goods, I'm also going to have the money removed from my paypal account so I'm £60 out of pocket. ARGHHHHHHHHHHHH.

    Oh no CL, that's what is putting me off ebay.

    MM well done on payrise, you'll be debt free the next day if not tomorrow, frustrating but it will happen.
