    I wouldn't worry too much about giving your bank account number hun, they can't take any money from you or anything. :) It's only if they have the long number off you card. Quidco pay this way and I find it really straight forward. I would actually prefer vouchers though, when money gets paid into my bank, it has a habit of being swallowed up! :rotfl:

    Just looking on the website though, I can't actually find anywhere to put your account number, maybe you just give it them when you reach the threshold? Or am I being thick? :confused:

    Thanks Hayley. :A:A:A I am still not sure...Thank you. xxx

    Aurora -yep don't think they can take out with just your account number - only if they have the long number,

    but you can also get sent a cheque if you want or get the money paid into your paypal account if you have one

    Think I went a bit wrong today........money making turned into money spending

    DD has passed her ballet + tap exams, she got commended and highly commended, so that was Disney Princesses campimg chair (from Home Bargains only £6) and Lisa Simpson pjs....

    Big home bargains shops £65 - so accidently slapped it on dads credit card, he gave it to me to save taking his wallet out.

    Then it was a visit to b+M, got some bargains from there, sum stuff for us, others put up for xmas, £55 - I paid, add it on to the iou.

    Fingers crossed, ordered a netbook from Maplins, due in end July only £149.99, mums paid, and only have to give her half back,,,,,, review sites here I come.

    Usual clicks, think I may of been junked with that lovely bingoooooooooing company........ not redeemed my requests from mid June...... so wait and see, have sent in a query.

    Want to get dd her own laptop and the Amazon vouchers were intended to cover the vast of the purchase xx
    xx rip dad... we had our ups and downs but we’re always be family xx

    Scatty - Thank you. Cheque sounds good to me. I think I will check out pay pal,too but I think cheque would be the best if they don't do vouchers. Thank you very much. xxx :A:A:A

    Have a lovely week everyone. xxx

    lol I am still not having fun with dooyoo, although I admit it is quite addictive, because you want to see what people think of your reviews! The member who accused me of revenge rating, will not let up and is now pestering me to change my rating of his product. I'm not changing it as it is a personal viewpoint and have told him I want nothing more to do with the matterr!

    OK ladies, remember ONE WEEK ON WEDNESDAY (e.g. 1st July) we require an update from you, so why not see if you can make a few extra pennies this week, try really hard, check all the sites more often than normal and see if you can boost your 6 monthly totals :)

    :ABeing Thrifty Gifty again this year:A

    The top I was selling on Ebay went for £10 this morning, I'm waiting for the buyer to pay me then I should be able to withdraw £50 from Paypal.

    Not a very good day here, we had to have Whisky, our beloved Springer Spaniel put to sleep this morning, he was a week off his 14th birthday.
    His back end gave way (common issues in Spaniels), told dd this morning that Whisky wouldn't be here when she got home he'd be in doggy heaven, but don't think it sank in.

    Were haveing his ashes and going to bury some at the side of the shed, his favourite spot in the garden, and going to sprinkle some when we go to Dawlish on holiday later in the year, he loved it, he was full of the joys of spring.
    I went with dad this morning, as we said goodbye, he looked so peaceful, but although on one hand weve been living on borrowed time for last 6 yrs (he broke a bone in his back and it fragmented in his spinal cord - he was temporary paralysed, but got 95% of his mobility back), it doesn't make it any easier. x

    Just been on Paypal and it doesnt look like they charge you for withdrawing anymore so have withdrawn the £40 and will use the rest when they pay me to buy some sewing bits I need. Says you have to withdraw more than £6 at a time.
