update from lynsayjane

well things are going a little smoother, despite trying to live off £20 till i next get paid (end of month). got my debenhams card payed off, but in truth i only put stuff on it cause i knew i had the money to pay it off when the bill came in.

though im raging at sky at the minute. got their credit card cause it was 0% till january, today i get my new statement in with a late payment charge, which i'm really upset by, despite being in debt i've never made a late payment in my life (except the council tax, but they can cope :D). turns out the date in large letters at the bottom is the date of your statement and the date payment should be made by is in small letters lost among the small print at the side :mad: just phoned them up to go a little nutz but their system has crashed and the wifey can't view my information.

aaaaaaaaaaarrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrgggggggggggggggghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

    well done for getting another bill paid off. allways feels good to have a little extra cash the month after..

    Or a little extra cash to chip away at other bills

    phoned up sky tonight only to be told, repeatedly, by the customer service advisor that it does state clearly ont he back that payments should be made 4 working days before the due date. thats not my problem, the bad layout of the statements is! :mad:
    might just get myself another 0% card and tell them where to stick it!
