    Will do Pepe, but at a bank/postoffice etc. Last time I donated on the phone (children in need) they took 3 months to take the money and I was then charged £30 by the bank :eek: That was one expensive donation :rotfl:

    A***holes! Write them a letter and tell them to Donate the money to Children in Need.
    ...and if you dont want to, send me the details and I'll do it!:mad:
    :D:D stay wonky :D:D

    ....one-way ticket to Portugal booked !

    It's easy to give in to that negative voice that chants "cant do it" BUT we lift each other up.
    We dont count all the runners ahead of us & feel intimidated.
    Instead we look back proudly at our journey, our personal struggle & determination & remember that there are those that never even attempt to reach the starting line.

    It was years ago Pepe :D Ie pre mse, however I did phone them... They removed the charge and donated some 'extra' money a charity (?). I did however contact CIN to tell them how appalled I was that it took 3 months to take the money. I know its all for charity but if retailers can access your money within 48hrs they they could set up a system and do the same. Never heard back :o Since then I have always done it through postal orders/the bank :D
