    Thank you so much. I have now recieved an email requesting for a copy of my passport, utility bill and a scan of my debit card that is registered on the site (with first 8 numbers erased) as part of a security procedure.

    I have faxed them off now, so looking forward to getting the cheque sometime next week :j

    are you sure that was wise
  • Standard procedure from jackpotjoy. kian must have deposited using a credit card.

    I had that problem with them but they never asked if it was the account running on a debit card.
    Fog on The Tyne isn't mine all mine... but if I wanted it, I'd want it with a discount code.

    just add dot com on the end, please do be careful when gambling, it can become addictive as well as a mugs game, I was fortunate enough to be on the site at the right time.

    well I've just spent half the money on a brand new car, it was time to get another one, so paid the deposit today for a 07 reg Toyota Auris TR 1.6 multi transmition. had a 5* safety rating from NCAP(I think that's what they are called). We're also deciding to go away on holiday either Florida or some place n Australia for a fortnight.
