    A few people on the eBay board have told me to ignore them as well, looks like they cannot leave me negative feedback as its over 60 days too but i just don't want them bothering me.

    I think we all do TAB, you have to send in ID though to get your £10 back out and it takes a few weeks, they are a pain, me and MM had trouble with them.

    i have 2 with take a break 2 cards 2 adresses. You can cashout via cheque so i did that. i might ask my mum if i can use her card and details to do one?! I might give dd the money into her account from my mums?

    I am still trying to pack away all the x mas stuff! there is no where for it to go. Can i take the tree down yet? i want to tidy it all away!!

    My goals for this year are-

    - Lose a stone.
    - Make £10 everyday
    - Try match betting!! eekk scary
    - Gradually reduce the amount i spend on food!

    That is it if i don't make to many i might be able to stick to them

    I should be ok on eBay as looks like they only have 60 days to leave feedback too.

    I have sent them this message.


    Good Morning,

    This item was sold on 24th October so i am afraid i will not be issuing a refund as i have no proof that the game hasn't been used or damaged in the time period since this date.

    It was working upon purchase and when it was posted to you.

    I feel that you should have tested the game upon delivery if it was to be given as a present, we then could have come to a mutual agreement upon return of the game to myself.

    I would suggest you clean the disc with a soft cloth and perhaps try it in another Xbox?

    Regards,
    Dawn

    Does that sound reasonable?

    I've withdrawn form TAB without having to send them any ID. I'm not sure which method you two used for withdrawal, but I told it to send the money back to the card it came from which is possibly why the didn't ask for ID.

    I feel the need for some goals now, but I'd like ones I can stick to. I'd love to be able to save £5000.

    That's a good reply, it's polite but they know where they stand.

    Oh really? What a cheek! they didnt want ID when i paid the £10! lol. I have withdrawn the £10 already. So do they send another email out saying they need ID?
