    Depends what the company ask for. I can't imagine for 1 minute they will want the sim (and even if they did, I wouldn't send it - its got personal details on and credit if its PAYG & even more if its on an active contract :eek:)


    Edit cross posted with the above! Do make sure you clear everything you can from the phone as well (Just to re-iterate!)

    Hi all, i'm new to posting but I have been reading posts for quite a while. I want to be added to this thread. Does this mean it will show up in my user area for easy access. Any help??

    Invested £45 today and hoping for a £15 profit. It is tough to find that niche, so much competition even on ebay. Try Try and Try again!!!


    Hi there,
    that's why I suggested people investing in collectors items or second hand items. New items can be sold by thousands,therefore creating a cheap or cheaper market in time.Rare collectables or items hard to find sell very well.Sometimes profits can be great,sometimes not so great,but investments can be very little.Over the last few days I have sold over £300.00 worth of goods from an outlay of £20.00.I have only sold 2% of the items I purchased ! For obvious reasons,I do not want to tell you what.Try and find a subject that interests you,that's always a good start.
    Thanks,and be careful.

    Happy New Year to everyone and thankyou for your interest in my thread

    I was an avid lurker on the up Your Income boards a while back. I've just been travelling for 6 months, spent all my cash, and need to Up My Income again now :)

    Got £100 for Christmas from my Grandad (lucky me ;) ) so I'm ready to start ;p

    seems like bingo britain has really got wise to us. I've won £10 and £5 today. Have £15 cash balance, played my bonus. They won't let me withdraw (minimum is now £50 ) and they won't let me add funds (says my balance exceeds the balance at which a deposit can be made):mad:

    Ok, that's me out of BB then. I'll play my balance and then back out gracefully. At least I withdrew my £5 stake so I'm quits!

    They won't let me withdraw (minimum is now £50 )

    That's not good, I know we have "taken advantage of the offer" shall I say, but surely that will put off any genuine players?

    Hi all, I'm struggling a bit to decide on what to do, now - got £100 for Christmas (lucky me, too!) but now wary of buying the wrong thing, and losing money; maybe I should get a copy of The Secret as my first investment lol. My other idea is to start knitting things to sell, and maybe sell them on Etsy or one of the other crafty sites (just had a look on Ebay and they don't sell too well on there), so was wondering about investing in some materials for that. Any advice gratefully appreciated! :)
    I have come here to chew bubblegum and kick @ss.... and I'm all out of bubblegum.
