if i can get through this month with out incurring more debt that will be a huge challenge over come for me ....now just checked my quidco and finally the money from the insurance has came through but only £50 i am due £85 so have submitted a missing transactions enquiry will let you know how i go ...also the bingo people just put the money back into my account i asked them why and they said you need to have a neteller account for us to pay you out ...drum roll ..i got me one of them with bingo cafe so i said ...oh is that the world online banking thingy ( trying to act dumb) yes came the reply ..oh well i have one of them so can i have my money now ....have sent them an email with info needed but a pleading one saying money is tight (no lie there then) and i hopefully will resume playing again but not at the present(well not till they give me more credit anyway) ..i did this hoping that i would get more freebies how bad am i ...any way gotta run still no post man (no surprise there then) with my letter from the lawyer (who was i kidding) but i'm off to spend mils money for this holiday to London ...see you all later

Hope that you are ok El, and getting at least a few mins to catch up with the boards! Can't have you suffering withdrawal symptoms!

Spent an unnecessary 31p today, so not too bad. I will survive May, I will, I will :rotfl:

El hun - not sure what happened just then, i think we got booted off msn. Just to say that I'm rooting for you hun. If you sign up for the race for life (it's only 5k) we can keep each other motivated!

Hope the night shift is ok.

elantan

hypno06

Lucky you on the quidco! I have over £40 validated and over £200 tracked but nothing being paid out to me this time round :mad:

Oh well, maybe the whole lot will pay out at the end of May giving me a bumper "pay packet!"

Hope you managed to get some sleep today and that no-one was hammering/drilling/creating merry hell outside!

Toto

I've got the same thing going on with quidco Hypno, I have £143 validated (re-newed my insurance) but nothing being paid. OHs is the same, he has £20 validated which is now showing may payment. Funny things going on this month. I'm glad some of you are getting paid out though.

Hi Toto, the bulk of mine is insurance too. At least we have something to look forward to in June! I always see it as a bonus really, if it happens it happens - I would have had to get insurance anyway so bonus if quidco pays! I never even knew it existed before MSE so thanks :money:

(would be nice to have it now though :rolleyes: )
