    Nikki I hope this doesn't sound like a stupid question but is it one hundred percent not there. I know a couple of times I have got a mini statement from the bank and it doesnt always corrrespond with my main account one or the other is alway a wee bit out?

    I checked my online banking, the pending payments, checked a bank machine and phoned my bank lol. Then contacted HR and it looks like the CHAPS payment hasn't actually been done :mad: So I now have a 2 page complaints letter.

    Hehe should I ask for compo for undue stress :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:. In all seriousness though I will take it a lot further if I do not get my money soon.

    Does anyone have a list of everyones websites? I have missed quite a few pages and not everyone has their webpage in their profile. I know we can't put it on a post here but I would love to have a list that I can go to if I need to buy anything. At least then I know I am helping a friend.

    I'm going to be putting together a Dribblers website that will list everyone's site, and give some info about the challenge.

    Now Im fuming. CHAPS not done but payment can take up till 4pm to show? Err no, not if its not been actioned. Wrong end date on form, er no I have proof in front of me. It may be made tomorrow if paysection can get there fingers out there backsides and do there job!!

    I asked how I was meant to feed a child on thin air, funny how they avoid that question eh?

    I need to pay a CC but I've got no cash to do it with, if I miss a payment they'll pay the fee but I lose the 0% rate! How is that fair?

    They won't admit there wrong withoding my money, well seeing its not them eh!!

    I think, on saturday I may just tell them I can't afford the petrol to get to work, wonder what they will say then eh?

    Ok, rant over for now, sorry but i'm just so mad, I stress about mony as it is but this is gonna put me over the edge!

    Hi crafters, just discovered www.craftjuice.com and have loaded something up onto it. Before loading it had 71 views on Folksy, so I'll let you know if it gets any more views as a result - might be worth doing regularly if it does.

    Hi all - can someone explain about Craft Juice - just had a look - is it a sort of blog thing for items listed elsewhere?
