    Why am I so happy

    I have just logged on to my nationwide accounts and I have found an account with























    £765.60 in it



    :T:T:T:T:T:T


    The embarassing thing :o is that I dont remember opening this account and I have never had a statement for it so this was a big shock I knew about the other 2 accounts with £43.91 in and £3.62

    The only pain is now they say I need a card reader I wonder how long that will take to arrive?

  • Next problem don't know what to do with it now - pay towards MBNA card, pay towards mortgage - keep as MB float - blow it (only joking I couldn't do that:D)

    Help and advice required :confused:

  • How about a £500 float for match betting then you are not juggling bill money about to make extra money which just causes stress. Then make an over payment with the rest to your MBNA?

    When your matched betting account starts making money you can keep deciding along the way how much you need to keep as a float and make over payments as and when.

    How great to 'find' money :D

    Well I can't access this money either I can move it from one nationwide account to another but cant transfer it out without a card reader no idea how long that will take to arrive.

    So I have opened a betfair account but I cant put any money into it :mad:
    I have to sort out id for the betfair account as well this could take a while me thinks:confused:

    Do you have a card reader for another bank at all? Sometimes they can be used for other banks too... :confused: Nationwide seems to have forgotten that a card reader is seemingly required for the accounts I have (according to their website :rolleyes:)... I'm keeping quiet! :shhh: :rotfl:

    No this will be a new technical experience for me in fact I must check I can find the card I have never used it :o

    Oh my word, what a find to make.

    That is a lot of money to have forgotten about! Might there be others lurking.....you could be debt free by the end of the month :rotfl:

    I very much doubt it I have a couple of accounts with pence in this is just so unlike me:o which is why it was such a shock it has obviously been open some time cant understand why i didnt get statements must have opted for paperless but dont remember it being an option so long ago - I'm not complaining though it all helps:D
