My good news is that yesterday I got a letter back from Ll,oyds telling me that they wont be giving me back my bank charges. So I need to take them via moneyclaim where due to thier pig headed ness, I can claim fo 8% interest.

Cheers Ltsb

My good news is I've just checked my new A&L account and they've credited me the £50 Rec-A-Friend money! That's going straight to my cc!

My good news today is that I think I'm one step closer to improving my earnings (still a while to go yet though). I had and exam today (thanks for the good luck message ozzyfan!) and it went pretty well.

If I pass I will be able to get teaching hours next year so that I can do my PGCE (to do the training I have to be able to show that I can get up to 4hrs of teaching / week - seems back to front to me i.e. teach before we teach you how! :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: ).

I got a "bill" from Scottish Power this morning. I'd got into a pickle with them last year and ended up owing a lot of money, so had gone onto monthly direct debits. They automatically increased them by £5.50 in January. :rolleyes:

Guy read the meter last week, and the result is they're REDUCING my payments for the next year by £6! :j

I've wiped out what I owed them originally so I think I'll let it build a good-sized fund before I ask to go back on quarterly payments - better the money in my savings account than their bank!

My good news is that, after an interview yesterday, today I have been offered a new job at a fantastic company with a 6 grand payrise. Doesn't get much better than that in my book! I'm actually in a state of shock!!

:beer:

Well done Rob!

Goods News for me. I saved £45 for a plumber coming to fix my washing machine. I set it going 7pm Saturday & it was still going Sunday morning. Finally managed to open the door & get the stuff out yesterday. Tonight a brain flash & I googled 'Hotpoint Test' & found how to fix it in 3 minutes

Well done Anastacia, puts me in mind of a friend of mine who put her washing machine on then went on holiday for a fortnight, got back to find her machine still going .:eek: That was about 20 years ago, now I would ask why leave a washing machine on just before you go on holiday, the clothes would smell by the time you get back.
