Thanks Kat - will check that out.
Just managed to get hold of OH (not easy - anyone notice cause people's numbers are in your phone you don't know them off by heart?!) and he has an old phone I can use for now.
Will still look round but not in as much of a panic!
Normally wouldn't mind being phoneless for a couple of days but we have team-building in London tomorrow and we have to phone when we get there to find where people are - wouldn't have been easy without a phone! :rotfl:Debt at LBM Apr 2010 £28,767 Debt free as of Nov 2013 :j0 -
:mad::mad::mad: My phone has died! :mad::mad::mad:
2 weeks after I got the new cheap deal that means I don't get a new phone!
Am currently suspecting T-mobile of sending out a signal to my phone to kill it to get me back! :rotfl:
Off to find the cheapest phone possible!
Don't you get a 14 day cooling off period? Can you not swap to a contract that comes with a phone?Adam's diary - My Debt Diary - The Challenge | LBM May 2010 with £23,343.35 | £16,141.46 to go...

Hi becs, just catching up on what you've been up to this week. Hope your phone problem is sorted now?
Well done on sub 14k0 -
Sorry to hear about your phone hun, I hope you can either get a replacement or a new one soon and for little money. I know quite a few numbers off by heart but I have a good brain for remembering numbers.
Hope you had a good weekend hun, catch uo with you soon x

OH had an old phone! Even if he hadn't with the saving of £30 a month I still would have been better off buying a new phone than signing a more expensive contract.
Team-building on Friday was good and managed to only spend £23!
Did my first shift in the strip club yesterday. I worked on the door taking people's entrance fee. Interesting to say the least!
I had been thinking through in my head what it might be like so I was well prepared for the wierdos and pervy comments, and actually I met some very nice people too. I wasn't prepared for the guy who went outside for a cigarette and had a heart attack but there's nothing like an emergency to make the night pass quickly!Debt at LBM Apr 2010 £28,767 Debt free as of Nov 2013 :j0 -

What was it like working on the door then Bec's, were they all really drunk and loud? Did you get many women going in?LBM Aug 09: £18,650.47 - Current: £12,854.93 (£5946.79)

I have to admit to being quite nervous but it was fine.
There were quite a few drunk and loud people but there is security as well so that was ok.
The girl I work with who got me the job always has stories about the people she's argued with and stuff and I saw her in action when she trained me! Not wanting to sound unfair to her but I think it's partly her fault it's like that - she launches into telling people to f**k off when they've barely opened their mouths whereas I found by being calm and polite the few argumentative people backed down and one even apologised!
There was quite a cross-section of people and I have a feeling that no two shifts will be the same!
You sit in a little box with a TV so I got to watch the x-factor results and read my book so not too bad!
Landlord and landlady seem lovely so fingers crossed this will work out quite well.Debt at LBM Apr 2010 £28,767 Debt free as of Nov 2013 :j0
