Hi All!

Just thought id start of this post by saying im a newbie!

Anyway, ive sent them an email with my details....so its just a matter of waiting and seeing if they send anything out!

I wouldnt use the premium line number, it would be safer to use email....

will let you know if i hear anything of them!

I've just tried phoning that number and just got the ringing tone that went onto BT messaging! Fair enough they could be their lunch hour or they are out somewhere so i'll try later today and let you know how i get on!:-)


Can someone tell me how to get the smilies on here please? When i click on the smilies below they appear in the subject line and not on the message thing itself!!

Glad you asked that question re. smiles Hattie! I have often wondered the same thing lol. I have emailed the company, and will let everyone know if I should get a reply.
