    Girlracer, hope you dont mind but I have subscribed to your diary not in a nasty stalkerish kind of way just cos I found it interesting.

    I laughed when I read about your dealings with TSB (they are muppets and thats just being polite) I have been their customer for 15 years now and though my credit report is far from perfect they really let you know that you are lucky to be with them and have a "normal" bank account

    I wish you all the luck in the world in finding a new job and am sure one will pop up when you least expect it


    Well my dealings with barclays are worse lol
    theyve just retained my bank card
    not because ive misused the card or anything but because i dont fit there criteria anymoe, well they can shove there account where the sun dont shine
    got to changeall my bank details now for enefits
    cant get through to tax credits or chb

    really annoyed today
    my children have savings with barclays, and im going to phone them and tell them to close there ac!!!!s as THEY DONT FIT MY CRITERIA ANYMORE

    Idiots

    sorry its just the stress theycause, would understand if i abused the account but i havent

    Hi btw lol

    Can Barclays do that to you, issue you the card and then recall it?

    You should complain to someone higher than the branch you opened the account with.

    What is it with banks? we bail them out when they get in the s*** and then they turn round and s*** on their customers

    well im goingto see the manager on wednesday, its caused me so much stress today having to change all my money ove, saying i dont meet there criteria anymore ? what a load of bull.

    your right, im not working atm, but i have paid tax in the past, when i find out on wednesday what there lame excuse is i will let you know.
    i owe 200 quid on the overdraft with them as, so it better not effect my credit rating now they decide im not a worthy customer anymore.
    i need to sort that asap cos i dont want anything going on my credit file, ive worked too hard to clear it up

    Still up at stupid o clock again, i am very poorley, swollen glands and very run down, think its all the strees, the ex, money and bloody barclays!!! still fuming

    anyway, i got to post some things off tomorrow that people bought of me from ebay, some car seat covers and a motorbike helmet, i am worried tho because never had to send items as big as this before ... will the post office help me wrap them up etc etc, i dont know what to sendthem or anything, need to get done tomorrow because there already going to arrive to the customer late ... not good
    not like me, just hope i have the energy to make it to the post office

    so i did a silly thing tonight and got a bit stupid, i have applied for a jd williams account ( given a £150 credit limit ) applied for a cap one and a granite credit card, i dont know why, just think im wanting to see IF i can get things
    IF my credit has improved, but i need to pack it up, because i dont want to get into a mess like i did when i was 18, need to be real strict on myself
    sick of job hunting
    had another rejection letter this morning, was really wanting to hear about that sainsburys job as the hours and days fit so well around college, its like the job is meant for me

    i feel like im moaning so much at the moment, dont know if its because im ill and run down, not normally one to complain ( not this much anyway )
    my barclays account is due to close on the 29th august 2010 so im praying i can still go into branch tomorrow and get my tax credits

    ordered my book for college, hopefully have it by the end of this week
    thats all folks

    will b back soon, hopefully feeling better and stopped moaning

    Went to barclays, had a right go, they wasnt going togive me my money as i owe the overdraft

    Yes i said but my account doesnt officially close till 29th august therefore i have till then to pay it back
    after alot of arguing huffing and puffing i got my money
    why do these banks think they can do whatever they like
    sticking with my tesco savings now, never hd a problem with them

    So today, i am trying to keep up with the housework, and avoiding the pile of ironing that is staring at me
    getting a refund from matalan, should have it in the bank within the next 48 hiurs .. barclays can keep that to cover the overdraft ( £54.00 owed from matalan ) so gotta find another £130 by the 29th august

    As much as i love my kids, i really cant wait till they go back to school, even if i do go back to college before they return, i will get a couple of days to chill and get my house sorted
    the amount of glossing i need to do doesnt bear thinking about

    i am waiting to hear from granite and cap 1 about the credit cards
    and im not even going to bother trying to get anoter bank account
    like i said i will stick with tesco for now, wait for my searches to come of next year then re evaluate my credit report next summer

    hoping i can clear these council tax bills asap
    then i will just have household bills

    had to email jd williams, they gave me a credit limit of £150 i ordered a jacket, and when i signed in to my account it says i had no credit and i owe them £20!!!!!!
    i think i should hide in bed for a bit because im getting cheesed of again lol

    ttfn
