TBF I don't think I needed the giant Mr Men from the grabbit board Tesco glitch anyway

Annoyingly I have £103 Quidco going in that account tommorrow and I wanna waste it straight away on 'stuff' :mad:

:rotfl:
why do they completely cancel it? Barclays just block it until you tell them duhh I'm on a spreeeeeeee then you can use it again within hours IIRC

I need Tara to come negotiate for me! Can you believe I sTILL don't have my icandy :mad: I paid in full for it on 19th feb and they said it would take 7-10 days!
I want a free foot muff out of it but I'm far too shy to ask for it

HSBC are really annoying with this! They have done it to me twice when I have been in America - calling to go through my purchases because 'something looks wrong'

'Did you spend £xxx at Thomas Cook'
'Yes'
'£xxx on airport parking online'
'Yes'
'£xxx on Manchester Airport Duty Free'
'Yes'
'Okay - then we have some mysterious $xxx withdrawals in Vegas'
'NO!!! Really!!! Do you think I might have gone on holiday!!!!'
'Why would we assume that you were on holiday Mrs MFD?'
'Oh - no reason!!!!'

Idiots :mad:

She said it had already been identified as at risk or something and it would need to be cancelled. I've had my A & L one blocked before when spending thousands but this was a tenner!

Can't even get a tenner out the cash line or it'll keep my card! Might have to tap OH or DD!

Anyone know what I can spoil Keira with on her birthday?

I have bought her this so far:

http://www.amazon.co.uk/Disney-Enchanted-Giselle-White-Costume/dp/B001D0Q5PU/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=toys&qid=1269959152&sr=8-1

Will be getting her the minnie mouse dress from the Disney Store too.

Is that enough? I'm unsure! She wants a trumpet.....and make up.

Oh and we are going to a 4 year old girls birthday thing on Thursday so will need to pick up a gift for her but not even sure what she likes!!

Oooo, thank-you. Will go see. So if you don't mind me asking, where are you.

Hi Tara, I'm near Taunton.

Barclays blocked my creditcard once cause i spent £400 in argos and most of my other purchases were online or in the pub! lol.
Apparently it seemed dubious...

Eek! Our cat bought in a dead pigeon. There was blood everywhere!
And OH made me clean it!

The worst they can do is say no, no never hurts!

Sami that is awful! if your too scared to do it by phone why not email them? tell them you want delivery and compensation or a full refund and you will shop elsewhere!

EA that is why i have a house cat lol!

BM what is your budget???? Abi got a double pram and a scarey big doll last year for her birthday! or what about a few bits and pieces from claires?
