    Hi Jen - Glad you are back.

    Good luck sorting your ebay stuff out.

    Have you tried looking online for a problem solver with talk talk? They sometimes do online support, which can be better than waiting for them to answer the phone!

    Oooo did you get the gift card through the post Jen?

    Someone tell me to stop, i keep looking at cars on ebay and Autotrader! :rolleyes:
    Debt: just my mortgage :D

    Lol... thanks guys!! I have just worked out that if i put the money from my December pay towards my mum's debt that i was thinking of spending on a car, I could be debt free by June 2009. And if i bought a car, i would have to pay £60 a month insurance, then the petrol (tax and MOT was included for a year). Its not worth it really.

    I may treat myself to a car this time next year. :rotfl:

    Oooo £400... must have missed that Jen, is it money they owe you? Blimey thats a big amount! :D
    Debt: just my mortgage :D
  • Hi all,

    I haven't been around much recently... I'm so fed up/irritated. A few months ago I called up the student loans company and asked them what my account balance was so I could pay it all off. I paid it (or so I thought). Yesterday I received my yearly statement from them and they have been charging me interest even though my account balance was zero! So far in interest charges there is £45 :( My anxiety is bad today and I really can't face calling them. I also have to call Alliance and Leicester. Grrrrrrrrrrrrrr I hate phoning! :(

    Anyway! Jen how did you get the Woolworths giftcard if you don't mind me asking? Or did they just send it randomly?

    xx
