    Seems like your really under control of this stuff and trying to get your bank charges back. I hope you do, I dont like banks :rolleyes:

    Well I hope you managed to complete your 'to do' list:D.

    I have spent the day with my friend Excel - credit card charges would appear to be in the region of £1200:eek: - I didn't think anywhere near that. I am going to complete the rest tomorrow as I think I will add in a few catalogues as well.

    Today I plan to:

    • [STRIKE]Get a washing out the back garden whilst its dry!!!![/STRIKE]one of the only things I've done!
    • [STRIKE] Write to HBOS re: Visa - just to remind them why I'm not paying[/STRIKE] I love writing to them.
    • Tax my car - just realised the tax is out - the reminder fell down the side of the fridge
    • List 10 items on Ebay
    • Phone a couple of temp agencies to speak to them re: temp work
    • [STRIKE]Need to walk round to the shop to hand a newspaper in for my next door neighbour[/STRIKE] Had to do this!

    Well yesterday was not very productive! Today I need to list my Ebay items as I am super skint!:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    Didn't tax the car because OH went to work with both bank cards - thats a job for today!:mad:

    Need to speak to Reed as I've registered online and applied for loads - but I'm not getting anywhere. Will call them once I put my washing out ;).

    Also, must speak to the accommodation office for my flat in London to get a date sorted - its not clear whether they will require a deposit because it is paid directly from my salary. I hope they don't need a deposit cos I ain't got one :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:. The truth is its likely I'll need one :rolleyes:.

    Got a letter from RBS today. Despite sending me a letter the other day saying that I have 2 unpaid d/d's but as it was the first time this has happened they weren't going to charge me - today they have written to advise me I will incur an unpaid item fee for both these items.:mad: A letter is going to be on its way today re: this - that is if I have enough money for a stamp!:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

  • Warning all - I'm on a rant!:mad:

    Just checked my online banking with HBOS - and finally on the 14th working day my £560 hardship reclaim funds have been paid in:j. They have deducted £70 in charges since accepting this despite stating no further charges would be applied for 3 months:mad:. However, because I wrote initially saying we would accept this amount as partial settlement, and then there has been toing and froing with them not receiving forms etc, I guess they will say these charges were levied in the interim. Instead of being able to pay off the overdraft and transfer £60 out we are now £0.98 overdrawn. Raging, absolutely raging:mad:. I have a letter to send re: incurring fees whilst this is sorted and will be selling my body to pay for a stamp to send this today!

  • Hey not a bad start though - they have paid you what they said they would within (just) the timescale (evenetually) - just the charges to sort out now (again).
    Good luck with the new job - hope it all goes well for you.
