  • Does anyone know if it works with egg money?
    Yes - I've been doing it for a while. It'll take about three working days for them to appear on your online statement.
    Conjugating the verb 'to be":
    -o I am humble -o You are attention seeking -o She is Nadine Dorries
  • Thanks Paul,
    just out of interest, how many paymenst do you make in one day? I'm trying to catch up for lost time as I only joined last week and I am trying to get £50 each month.

    Cheers
  • Hi,

    I am paying my eBay fees by debit card at £1.01 a time!
    Card must not be linked to a Paypal account or it won't accept it (it will try to insist on using Paypal to pay!).
    Also, need to use an e-mail address not linked to an eBay account too.
  • I have been working on getting the full £100 out of lloyds for a few weeks, I have put money into a betting account using my debit card, in small chunks, ie £5.01, 2.01 etc....Now I have too much money in the betting account

    If I now transfer all that money back to lloyds, will that mean i will lose my matched allowance????????

    Having read the following small print from the t&cs I think you'll be fine to do this....



    8. If any debit card payments are subsequently cancelled or reversed, or you notify us of any fraudulent debit card transactions, the corresponding “change” transfer will remain in your nominated savings account.


    I know you're not talking fraud but say you're reversing a transaction it won't affect the STC.

    I'm going for 10 from £1.01 to £1.10, I think you can normally do up to 15 in a day but I need to save the other ones for 'real' transactions such as petrol etc.

    I've just had my card blocked after exceeding 15 (really easy to sort though, just a quick phone call)
  • That's great, thanks Kathy. Whats the phone number just in case?
  • That's great, thanks Kathy. Whats the phone number just in case?

    it's 0845 300 0000

    when the options come just say 'advisor' and tell them you think your card is blocked. Mine was sorted instantly.
  • Brilliant, thanx

    im sure it says reversed transaction wont be paid STC....but can find that
  • Just for info guys....

    I've spoken to someone at Lloyds who says the normal number of transactions allowed per day is 6 (I know I've way exceeded this) but I'm just passing on what I've been told.

    Also they said if your account is blocked and you ring to unblock it then it won't be blocked again for 31 days.

    Hope this is helpful to all you moneysavers!
