  • So will I not get my bonus money until tomorrow then? And if the offer is only 30 days, does that mean everyone's only doing this for that long?

    Yeah you get your bonus money the day after you spend it (or your origional £5) so when you log in today, it should be there.
    Brother won £5 in the end on it yesterday and we're splitting anything he wins so every little helps! Need to sit down with him and work out how much he "owes" me though!
    Did a bit of a bank account audit last night, it doesnt look too good but I spoke to mum about money too and she can give me some in jan, and I should be getting my student loan so yey! owe £200 on CC though that I didnt really realise... doh :( has to be paid by the 14th and rent on the 1st and my a/c has £430 in it... i have some cash though which I could do with taking to the bank... and I want to put £50 into my saver online so that I have a nice round figure lol.
  • Thanks for the advice girls, my bonus money was there this morning with another £5 pending. I've just pre-paid for some cards later on this morning - do I need to wait around and actually play the games or does it claim automatically for you?

    Well done on having a good look atyour finances Tink, I'm just about to check my internet banking! :(

    Morning All,

    Well I am on my 9 days off so not back at work till 4th Jan same as Mrs Poolie so we are enjoying the time off.

    Went up to parents on Sunday but the weather is due to turn again and it very icing in Hartlepool so we came back last night.

    Stopped at Meadowhall in Sheffield on the way since it was open late. Lets just say 2.5 hours later and 4 bags of shopping meant we didn't get back till 11:20pm.

    Have managed to get back into dooyoo so hitting that hard today. Have done 3 reviews already this morning so going to keep going and see what else I can do.

    Also managed to pay another £9 off the CC so getting it down a bit further - will need to update sig.

    It will claim itself Tete so you can just go and check later. Remember if you win something like a fiver just deposit twenty and withdraw the holw lot. The offer has been going on for months, I really can't work out how they make any money!

    My online banking is a bit of a sorry state of affairs. After OHs birthday present (no idea what to get him) I have about 50 quid a week which includes food eek. I knew this was going to be a tight month though.

    At least I can still go shopping today as I have lots of vouchers yay.
  • That's good that you got vouchers rather than cash - cash seems to mysteriously melt away on things like groceries, at least with vouchers you have something to show for them!

    I'm actually thinking of setting up another BB account actually with another bank account and email address ... maybe do that later on!

    I think it may only let you do one in each name but I am not sure. I added OHs card and they asked for a scanned copy of his ID but he isn't keen on doing that so can't do it.

    I know what you mean Wendz. Our online banking is a nightmare going to take till at least 5th or 6th Jan to sort itself out due to the non banking days.

    :eek: I'm a massive Meadowhall lover (go most weeks as it's near OHs house :o) and even I can't stomach 2 and a half hours!

    My bank is looking oddly healthy for January, think it's because I got a fair chunk of Christmas money and lots of vouchers to spend in the sales tbh!

    Why do some of the newbies on some forums and boards think they know better than the people answering their questions??? Who have answered the question many times before.
