Single and in Debt Part 3- The problem of surplus and excess women

Hey Buffy

Steria do payroll for the company I work for. They do it very badly and are very frustrating to deal with on the phone/e-mail, in my experience.
I'm sure this has only happened since Tracey stopped working there
PS Tracey - My ex had an MX5, I liked driving it but the suspension was a bit hard for me. It was a Sport though so maybe they have firmer suspension?
Ahhh I see. I thought it sounded like some kind of illness:rotfl:
I still haven't had a driving lesson yet:o

Hello all, hope everyone has had a good day:)
I've not got much done today:o I have packed up a game I am selling which I need to take to the Post Office tomorrow (bought for £10.50 just before Christmas, am now selling for £12.50:j). I can't do anything about the music magpie stuff and the phones until the welcome packs arrive. Am a bit concerned that none of the phone companies have appeared to track on TCB as I am getting more from them than the actual value of the phones.
Tomorrow I have to go into work for a while and I need to make sure I am here for my online shopping delivery, but I am going to try to get to the Post Office, take the small bag of stuff I have to the charity shop and throw out another bag of rubbish and maybe sort out getting a new phone.
I got £2 worth of Clubcard vouchers in the post today and some vouchers for money off online shopping and points, not much but I am on a mission to make as much as I can this month so every little helps:)Pay/save £20k in 2010 £5888.75/£20,000June Mini target 0/5lbs Total 23/40Ebay profit 2010: March £207:) April £95:) May £130:) June £0 Total £432:j0 -

Hello!
Hope everybody has had a good Monday. Mine was ok. Just written myself a long list of tasks for tonight. Must at least do some of them.
Posted my rather firm letter to Hastings Direct today about the non-existent fuel vouchers.
Wow, Sarah, you're doing brilliantly. My decluttering isn't going as fast as I'd like, but I'm preoccupied with moneysaving, so I'm not an entirely lost cause (I hope
)

hi dan yes I worked for steria in mcr for four years. British telecom outsourced us a finance group to steria on a contract, then I worked on the mytravel contract at steria, aaargggh yes whenever I had to phone steria payroll I had to explain six times before the indian customer service could understand me. I left in april 08 and a vol redundancy package spaanning 22 years (including the years I worked at bt since 1986).
Yes my mx 5 has bilstein suspension hard ride but good motorway holding. crap with potholes though. I hope to get it changed at some point. Mine is an S Ltd:)
