For 1cm worth of beer, you'd think you'd let it slide - certainly not worth a 15 minute debate while the rest of your pint goes flat - but not my Dad! Not when he has his trusted Assistant Manager Daughter alongside!
He's lucky to not get barred with that sort of attitude!0 -
Blooming questioniare from the site thats 'always down'.
YOU MUST ONLY STATE THEIR NAME AND EXTENSION NUMBER. DO NOT PUT FULL SENTENCES. E.G. ANDREW SMITH 237
So I put for example: Nosey Parker 445
You've guessed it, won't be accepted as I need to add more to the question to validate it. I put (Ihave added this as I could not validate the question otherwise!)
Just waiting to be sacked now!

I CAN'T FIND IT, now if you can't provide a link to the page fair enough, but don't have a pop at me because you are a little annoyed that I asked a question.
We all need help at times, maybe you will one day.
SERIOUSLY?? I answered your question by explaining step by step how to do it......I know its been mentioned many many many times but this is how I did it...
go to google and click 'advance search' next to the search box.
Then, in the 'Search within a site or domain' box type the ABA-i web address. It should then bring up all different clients for you to register with each.
HTH
I can understand why people get frustrated. :rolleyes:0 -

You could try searching on their website for the branch, some banks list what facilities are available in each branch.Happy New Year :beer:0 -

"My daughter was an Assistant Manager of a Restaurant! I think she knows what good service/food is!"
That reminds me of my Grandma. My Dad was the first person in the family to get a degree, so that was "announced" at every available opportunity.
He's still got the gown that she insisted she had to buy him for his graduation and it's the same colours that I'll have to wear when I graduate. I'm going to wear the gown and will be thinking of her, as she would have been so proud of another degree in the family.
Anyway - back to MS chat!
I'm frustrated with ESA. I did a job last week and the garage had closed down, so I rang them to let them know.
Yesterday it was allocated to my page to do again, so I declined it and explained I'd already been and it was closed down.
A man rang this afternoon, and he said he had a couple of similar jobs in the Newcastle area. I told him just to stick them all on my account and I'd do them tomorrow, but I never checked the actual locations with him as I was in the middle of cooking. Just logged on and he's added the closed down branch again - arrrghh!Here I go again on my own....0 -

They had originally brought the wrong drink over and had apologised profuselyabout this so I called RE and told them that they had not added it to the bill by way of an apology for getting it wrong. (this was the truth btw!) It would have been a dead givaway if i had insisted they put it back on the bill!
anyway they were fine about it and i got paid.0 -

In the time it took you to type that you could probably have answered my query.
If I had found the answer by searching I wouldn't need to ask the question.
Scotsbob, you received a kind and polite reply. If you really want help and get answers then you might want to change your way of trying to relate to a very helpful group of people.0
