    Hi!

    I'm sure there is a 'grace period' with mobile contracts, if you're not happy take it back!

    Good luck!

    well saved some money sister was ill so didnt go out thats £50 still in the bank and no hangover.
    need to get healthy bodywise and moneywise so have bought 30 dayshred from an amazon voucher and the frugal lentil soup is in the pot .
    will phone santander monday and see if there is a balance tansfer offer,and then will gather my money and put on cc i have 40 in paypal,70 in current account and 60-70 in the vodka bottle the saved interest has got to be worth the effort ,after that each time i sell an item and payment clears i wil pad to cc will see how low i can get it after all 0 is the target wonder if i have enough rubbish to make 7500 suspect my house would be very tidy and devoid of any furniture lol
