Morning all.

Its double scratches again today plus i got a £1 login bonus on 2 cards and 2 £1 bonuses on 1 meaning i have withdrawn £21.10 from them today

A good start to my Friday, hope it stays good and for you too.

Going to send take a break my ID today so i can try and get my £10 back, still a bit peeved about losing the other £10 oh well

That's a great start to the day lilmiss, I've been paid £25 more than I was expecting today as they've finally got my tax correct. Now they've sorted it I can try and find out how to get the rest of the tax I've paid back, I think it's in the region of £80 which will be a nice lump to get.

Anyway, I'm off to spend it on car tax now lol.

God good days can't last long can they, just noticed HSBC have dropped my ISA rate by 0.5% due to the cut by the Bank of England booooo

I just checked my takeabreak account and under the tenner withdrawal it says 'id check' so i guess i'll have the same soon-did they email you or send a letter? It's been about a week since i tried to withdraw?

yay double scratches (still 10p's!!!) and £1 bonuses :-)

off to bloody work again..I HATE IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!

lilmissmup

No they didn't email me i just went to check what was happening and when you click withdraw it gives you the instructions. you need to email them a passport or driving licence, a copy of the front and back of the card you used (they said scrub out the 3 digits on back) and a bank statement

thanks will try that tonight. X

Morning All

Yey, great start for me too. Double scratches. 10ps and 50ps and £1 bonuses One card Im already up to £6 again, and I only withdrew from it a couple of weeks ago.

Also, i had 2 items sell on ebay. They were the 2 someone offered me £20 for both, i sold them today for £25 each :eek: Im in shock. And they have already paid.

AND (another one!) i won something i was bidding on last night for my nephew. The PJS i ordered from there came yesterday as well, and they are official cartoon network ones. For £4.99 im not complaining!

I was a bit ill last night. I felt dizzy and weird about 9pm and then was violently sick. After that I felt fine. Very odd!

anyhoo... hope you all have a good day today.

Morning everyone. Yesterday is over and I have an unexpected day off today as dd2 woke up not very well so didn't take her to nursery. She has been a bit sick but not a lot but seems ok at the mo.

Well done on your weight loss jen. Got lots of writing to do today and catching up with a bit of tv

That's great about the sales Amy. Sounds like everyone is getting ill lately...I hope your dd feels better soon Yukki.

I shifted another £21.77 into my ISA today, I've got into the habit of doing it when I have odd amounts of money. Today I got £105 from work, so the £5 went in there, and money my mum had transferred to me went in my account which made it £16.77 over a a round hundred number, so that went in too. It seems a bit OCD but I've already put about £100 in there from doing this so far & as the amounts are small I don't really miss them.

I'm trying to work out what vouchers and things I have for christmas presents. So far I've got a simpsons box set from ipoints yesterday (will give that to my brother if he doesn't have that series, need to check when he goes to college). I also have £20 in boots vouchers coming, a £12 HMV one, and £15 in nectar points. Oh, and I'm giving my sister the ipod I won as a joint birthday/christmas present.
