    Oh what a rotten day Gar.
    I had to give up with butlins bingo, they wouldn't let me put a new card on the account when there was cash in there.

    Thats awful about consumer pulse as well. I don't know how they work but is there a chance you could open a new account in a couple of months? or open one in OHs name?

    Fingers crossed for something nicer from postie.

    Funnily enough Tixy I was trying to put a new card on when all this started and it wouldn't let me!!!!

    Consumer Pulse are by invitation only:mad:. Never mind, nothing too vile from the postie. Must be saving it for another day :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:.

    Back down to London tonight:(

    Hi Gar:o

    Sorry it's been such a long time since I last logged on!

    How's things going?! So many posts I will never get caught up:p! I hope things are going ok.

    I doubt I will update my dairy as I've had a tough few months (not debt related:cool: - for a change) and I'm so not focused and anyhooos the creditors seem to be accepting what we have offered.

    Speak soon

    Butlins closed my account when I rang asking for a new card to be put on, I had about £30 to withdraw. They let me withdraw it, but then closed it due to 'bonus abuse'! Why do a free daily scratch card if they don't want you to use it??

    Anyway good luck with the rest of them :D

    Hi Blue Jeans,

    Sorry to hear you have had a few tough months, and nice to hear that things are bobbing along nicely as far as debts are concerned.

    I too have lacked motivation since my job seems to have consumed my life!!! However, getting my head stuck right back into the heart of it at long last, and carrying on regardless!

    Lovely to hear you are still around ;) PM me anytime

    Hi all,

    I was slipping back into sticking my head in the sand, sorry for not updating!

    Cahoot and Next have both rejected my F&F. Strictly speaking Next didn't reject my offer but they would only mark my credit file as partially satisfied. I told them that the terms of the offer were clear and that the offer was only on the table if the account would be marked as satisfied in full.

    Oh well xx J

    Glad to see you back Gar!
    I can imagine how hectic things must be with going back and forth from home to work. But if your debts are still reducing even without you getting chance to log in here then thats really good.
