Blimey, that is a massive deterrant to going to A&E. What happens if you don't have enough money to pay them? Do they just kick you out?

If you have no money or plastic cards with you, they send you out a bill and then lots of reminders and if you don't pay it ends up with a debt collection agency!! My kids play a lot of sport and we had 4 trips with them to A & E last year plus one with himself getting kicked in head by cow and 6 stitches in forehead! €500!! Although we may get some back on our private medical insurance but that costs €2500 per year!! :eek:
Because of scar DH's nickname is now Harry Potter!! :rotfl:

Morning! Hope you are all looking forward to Ash Wednesday and a day of penance!! I'm ignoring the smug ones here in work who went to Mass before they came in and have a big smudge of ashes on their forehead! I'm ash free and loving it!! And contemplating a bacon sandwich for breakfast!!

List for today is:

1. Check bank and transfer pennies Done
2. Do polls, survey & cashback site Done
3. Job off the "dreaded" work list Done Only a small one but it counts!
4. Ring friend to arrange school council meeting Done
5. Finish dental tax claim! This one is a must! Bigger job than I thought - part of medical expenses claim so need to start on 2011 medical receipts
6. Buy birthday card - hopefully using points on loyalty card Done - & also got all cards needed for March!
7. Empty washer, hang up to dry and put another load in Done
8. Clear treadmill - it is not a wardrobe!!
9. Do 10 mins on treadmill
10. Ironing!! Loads of good tv tonight so can do whilst watching

Hi everyone. Have been a bit awol on the lists as my blood pressure medication was upped a bit, which always turns me into a complete zombie for a few days. Seem to be coming out of it a bit now.

1. Fill in forms for a new driving licence
2. Wrap all sold ebay/Amazon parcels
3. Try to get Mothercare code to work
4. Make midwife appointment
5. Identify some attic ebay boxes for NIM to bring down
6. Sort out the bag of unidentified paperwork in the lounge
7. Get another load through the washer
8. Hang out all the damp washing
9. Look into dropbox invite cousin has sent to send her photos
10. Call T Mobile

Vintage43 - you can ask for interest to be stopped if you're entering into a DMP, be that self created or through a charity/company. I don't think they're obligated to accept it, but if you've been missing payments they're more likely to as some money is better than you going bankrupt and them getting nothing.
