  • Afternoon all,

    Has your quidco actually been added to your bank account yet? I've just checked and mine's not in yet.

    I have my first test today :eek: It's health and safety... boring stuff and apparentely we're allowed to ask for help in the test so it seems a bit pointless to me :S I might go and read through the notes she gave us last week just so it's fresh in my head.

    I have been on Facebook and this girl who I used to go be good friends with, is boasting about her amazing bonus (she calls herself an investment banker, but really she is the dogsbody teagirl at a bank). I hate people like that... I really think that if she had a lot of money, she wouldn't need to boast about it. I might go into the bank at the weekend and ask which account she would recommend for a £100k lump sum, just to wind her up :rotfl:

    Hey CL.

    I think quidco paid out today, so it should hit our bank accounts probably around Monday/Tuesday? Something like that.

    Ooo good luck with your test, but I am sure you will be fine.

    you often find the ones that boast about money are insecure regarding it, and often dont have a lot. lol... i sound like my mum!
