    I am still checking for large sums of money in the hope that OH's work aren't as tight as we all think they are! Alas no large sum of money :rotfl:

    Hate it when you do a BT and then they take the payment, real !!!!!! to sort out,

    Have a good day

    It really is constant, isn't it. I hope today goes well after that initial setback.

    Could you not just use that £25 balance for some of your food shopping over the next week or so rather than go through the rigmarole of trying to get it refunded??

    Hi Hypno, agree with Pooky re CC. I'm wondering about CB too now you come to mention it. My eldest finishes in November anyway but youngest has another couple of years as things stand (:think: hmm, wonder if he's still skinny enough to stick up a chimney or two...) hope today's a good one x

    Hi P, yes still on for next week- you can see the new windows in person :D

    Apparently they are coming along nicely but won't be finished today, so they are coming back tomorrow as well. DD is there on tea-making duty.....

    Having difficulty staying awake today.......matchsticks very much required!!!

    Hypno, if it was a DD can you not cancel it today - money should be refunded in a day or so via DD guarantee?
    A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort

    When virgin did that to me it only took a couple of days after I phoned them for it to be back in my account.
    Watch for their next trick as well...I cancelled my DD after paying them off and they had a cheek to charge £12 the following month due to a failed DD..idiots that they are.

    I remember them doing that Taxi, poor customer service that is.
