    A bit drastic just to be able to apply for a Makro card.

    Even more dramatic to start a business for a pack of nappies (that you could find cheaper from virtually anywhere on the web)

    This thread spells "Drama"!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Maybe it's woman thing - just mention babies and the whooooole world should run to your rescue :o)
    When will the "Edit" and "Quote" button get fixed on the mobile web interface?

    Sorry you didn't 'get' it, it was an attempt to be vaguely funny (dry British sense of humour...)

    Hello! I am sorry if this is the wrong place to ask this but, as this is about the Makro card, I thought it was the right place.

    The thing is:
    I have a Makro card but I don't have a company here in the UK. The card was issued to me by Makro because I had a foreign card that didn't work to enter their UK stores. I didn't present any documentation to get this card and I've been buying using this to buy everyday stuff. Now my question is: is there any problem in using the card without having a company? From what I can understand, I still pay VAT thus I am not getting any benefits from this, right? Am I doing something ilegal?

    I am now self-employed and I believe I can get a card because of that. Thus, should I cancel the other card and get a new one? If there's no implications, then I won't do that as I just want to buy stuff for myself and not for my self-employment and won't be claiming any VAT back.

    Thanks for any help!
    Goal: Win a car (or cash to buy one :))! -- Haha goal from when I was a student. Never actually won this but got a good job instead.

    What I achieved:
    Car paid in full straightaway.
    Two properties fully paid. Wohhoooo!
