    Morning all. The start of a new month. My tax credits went in this morning and they've gone down! Insert expletive here.
    It's down by a copeable amount but I'm going to have to work even harder to recoup the loss as well as making extra now. Hopefully when my p60's go in they'll go up a bit more (knowing my luck they'll go down more lol)

    I'm working tonight which I'm not happy about so hacked off start to the month here :(

    morning all,

    Well after discovering my wages were £114 short yesterday i recieved a wage slip and £30 was pension which is fine and the rest is emergancy tax when i should get back next month when my p45 has been prossessed

    I was chatting to a work mate last night and she mentioned i will get 2 wages for June which confused me but it turns out i didn't get paid the first month i worked there so i am working a month in hand and will get paid 2 lots of wages in June plyus holiday plus tax i am owed for this month! Looks like i can treat myself to a new TV!

    yeah what you all doing today?

    you naughty girly lmao!!! you're worse than me congrats on the new car :-) just had a look on facebook it looks great !

    Took mine in to be sorted yesterday so hopefully thats it now....we will see.

    had planning refused on our van so we are now gonna have to appeal..great even more money-%$£&" council grrrrrrrr

    Jen-re wages did you work the first month and then get paid at the end of it-or didnt you get paid until the second month? if its the first you will just get normal wages at the end of the month not 2 lots. Mightbe wrong though i'm easily confused!
    I'm off out to mums to pick up my cross stitch i started for the new baby-now theyve named her i can finish it!

    Got to go up to the local hotel next fri to see the manager about doing their wedding fair (scary!!) good news is it only costs £50 which i have from quidco and onepoll so its free anyway so if it goes tits up its not so bad.

    have a good bank holiday all

    Morning everyone, i am not having a good day, last night i started getting a sore throat and sneezing, it hurts this morning! and an ebay member decided to complain about 2 pieces of jewellery saying theyre faulty (but she was alright with it if she got discount) anywho i said theyre natural stone theyre bound to have imperfections its natural, so i said send them back for a full refund, this morning i only received one and she has clearly damaged it there are two chips on the bracelet that i would have blatently noticed,what do i do?! :mad:

    Stacy I would partial refund for the one you have back but explain the damages etc in case she tries for a full refund via paypal and still has one piece of jewellery.
