    Not that I know what I'm talking about.....yet when it comes to APG's but on hotukdeals it says Bailey's is £12 a bottle but at @sda it is £18.50 would it be worth adding to a vM
    Shop or am ibarking up the wrong tree?
    I did three shops gaining APG's and my third shop I declined the udis substitute but I haven't had my refund. I applied for it online and yesterday I messaged them and still no response or refund. I'm a bit scared to ring them in case I get my account suspended. Do you think I should just take the hit and says no more about it?

    The same thing happened to me a couple of weeks ago ! The very helpful young man instore chased it up for me a couple of times and I also requested it myself but I never got anywhere - in the end I gave up and decided to write the £10 off. I decided that, if I get unsuitable subs in future I willaccept them - and then take them back to CS instore and get them to credit my card so that I can see that the credit has beed given ! They are not catching me out like that again.

    I am currently getting my knickers in a major twist over my Self Employed tax return ! If anyone can help me with a bit of advice I'd really appreciate it.

    For a few years now I've done a bit of Mystery Shopping so had to register as S/E and fill in a yearly assessment form - up till now thats been easy enough to do especially as I do very few jobs now. This year its all gone pie shaped ! My State Retirement Pension , Private Pension , Share income and Bank interest etc all have tax taken off at source - according to my tax calculation I owe them £1.40 so its pretty much right. I've managed to make a loss on the Mystery Shopping of a little over £100 so I need to set that against my other taxable income - but when I insert those details I still end up owing them £1.40 and I can't understand why as it seems that I am not getting any allowance for my loss of profit.



    I guess I have omitted to put this loss in a relevant box somewhere but I can't see where it should go. If anyone can tell me which section it should go under I'd really appreciate it.

    Try calling the self assessment help line. I found they were very helpful when completed oh's very complicated SA last year. The very helpful guy went through each question with us and put us right where we had gone wrong. Sorry I can't help with your question as I have never claimed losses back but I do know that you can offset the losses somehow. hth

    Good evening, wasn't expecting to be here tonight, but got as far as theatre reception sitting in my lovely gown, the surgeon had been and tattooed my arm and then the anesthetsatist (sp), decided I was not suitable due to the blood results, so starved until after lunch for nothing, so back to the waiting list:)

    That's often the case with bloods. unfortunately. Hope they level out soon for you xx

    That's what I think I will do its £17.70 but to be honest the four shops only cost me about £12 so I am very grateful. Thank you to the :A who helped me with the first order.

    Thanks for this, love CSI :(
    I, not events, have the power to make me happy or unhappy today. I can choose which it shall be. Yesterday is dead, tomorrow hasn't arrived yet. I have just one day, today, and I'm going to be happy in it. :)
