All sounding fantastic and great news on the card.
I think that's a good idea to cancel and then reorder the item as that way you are sure to get your points.0 -

Yes, I reckon you're right. I'm just twitchy about it now......it's the safest option I think. I'll do it tomorrow night when MrEH is out at rugby practise. I can't tell you how relieved I was about the card too!🎉 MORTGAGE FREE (First time!) 30/09/2016 🎉 And now we go again…New mortgage taken 01/09/23 🏡

MrEH has always been good at stuff like that - I tease him about going round with his eyes fixed to the ground as he is always finding coins in the street! Last year he picked up somewhere about £6.50 over the year just from the street.
When someone scarpered from a BTL owing me nearly 2k :eek: he left literally 100's of copper coins in the house where he'd just chucked them, under the bed, in the garden etc. I went round collecting them muttering 'that's £1,947.87 the * owes me, £1,947.86 the * owes me :rotfl:. Then had to wash them all. Trust me, you don't want to know about the state of the place _pale_A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effortMortgage Balance = £0

i was nervous as well when i applied for a new current account and i've never had a bad credit rating. Even at my finacial worst debt wise my credit rating was good but it still makes you really nervous.0

help!! I'm on Bingo Britain and I haven't a clue what I'm meant to be doing! :eek:
Other news - we have a new challenge. I need to do some thinking about it first, but will share all and get your thoughts in the next few days. It's a toughy.
Paperwork has arrived for Halifax 0% card so I shall get that copied and returned over the weekend. Recycle envelope for the mobile phone has also arrived - £6 top up credit plus 200 CC points so effective cash value of £14.
Planning a trip to Morrisons tomorrow for 5% off stamps and anything else they have that's bargainous. Got another weekend to do list as long as your arm so that will keep me quiet!🎉 MORTGAGE FREE (First time!) 30/09/2016 🎉 And now we go again…New mortgage taken 01/09/23 🏡

Repeat daily!
Any probs just PM me0 -
Thanks FF - how's best to play - prepurchase cards for games and then just leave it to do its thing? I take it I don't need to stand over it? Is it best to purchase *lots* of tickets on one game or spread them over many? And have people worked out yet whether there is a best time of day to play? I would imagine that early in the morning or late at night might be good, but is that to obvious? Sorry if any of the questions are obvious as anything - this is the first bingo site I've ever been near though!
:o Oh - already blown your first bit of advice - followed something elsewhere that said deposit and play through £5 so it doesn't look like you're bonus-abusing......oops!

I play first thing in the morning and have won about £3 every two days. Some people are doing better later on, but I just get up early and need to occupy myself!
I prepurchase so that all my bonus money is spent then (hopefully!) come back half an hour later to winnings!0 -
Thank you so much - I'll give that a try tomorrow them and see how it goes.🎉 MORTGAGE FREE (First time!) 30/09/2016 🎉 And now we go again…New mortgage taken 01/09/23 🏡
