    I think if you pay £500 into it, it might trigger it. Speak to the ppl who have done it, they'd know.

    Wish I had a spare £500 to stick in there for a few weeks, unfortunately everything I got, I need!

    hi all, still going very slow this end. I have abit more validated in quidco now though, will update later. I have an interview for a pub job tonight at 7 so wish me luck. Am really determined to get this egg card paid off.
    Can't believe how well everyone is doing. Wish I had a bit of spare cash to do this matched betting, oh well maybe next month.

  • Dr Hook - fromn what I can see they are only offering you 50% of what you claimed? I would say definitely call their bluff and issue the moneyclaim. I have got back about £20,000 for myself and friends and family and like some of the other posters, have got to about 2 days before the court date and they have caved in.

    Call their bluff because that is what it is! - It is YOUR money - don't let them get away with it.

    Sorry that sounded a bit like a rant, but they really get me angry. :mad:

    Good luck! ;)

    Dr Hook I would also go for the whole lot - I did twice and was successful

    My BIL is delivering my sister's unwanted stuff tomorrow and I have decided to advertise the pram in the freeads as I think I will got more for it than at a car boot sale. I had forgotten it was 10p listing today so will try to list some things later after completing a mystery shop report.

    Im on a go slow myself.

    Got home to find the house is literally a tip, so Ive been washing, washing up and getting tea ready since getting in at 6. :wall:

    Sigh, why cant I just get motivated?? :confused:
    :beer: Well aint funny how its the little things in life that mean the most? Not where you live, the car you drive or the price tag on your clothes.
    Theres no dollar sign on piece of mind
    This Ive come to know...
    So if you agree have a drink with me, raise your glasses for a toast :beer:

    Hi all

    Am new to Ebay but with a combination of this challenge and 10p listing I have decided to go for it..... arrgh!!

    Have listed a couple of items but have a query if anyone can help??
    I can't see them on a search - does it usually take a while to show?
    Oh and (another qu!) do you think the gallery listings are worthwhile?

    Any help much appreciated - thanks all

    it can take a while for the listings to show, I've just listed 5 items and hope that I can sell them all.
