Hmmm I can think of a few things
But I can totally understand how it is a massive shock to you...
Just a thought but don't most of those bingo sites ask that you pay a deposit to play?0 -
Hmmm............I can think of a very lovely lady who could do with £15k........LOL!!!
I would definately check its yours before spending it though, as it would be awful if it turned out to be an incorrect account number, and some poor sod who'd been playing online bingo is sat waiting for it!!I believe that I have the strength to make my dreams come true:T September Challenge £5 per day - £0/£150 :T0 -
I hope it hasn't been put into your account my mistake and someone is waiting for it. Imagine that!
Save it just in case the bank asks for it back."Do not spoil what you have by desiring what you have not; but remember that what you now have was once among the things you only hoped for."

IMHO I do not believe a word of it - sorry. However if it were so you would need to contact the benefit agency and your benefits would need to be adjusted accordingly and may even stop alll gether. They are not going to pay beneifts when you say have the money in a savings account.0 -
get some skanks & enjoy your smokes with them for the next year :grouphug:0

yeah, spend it on hookers and ice cream."I have enough money to last me the rest of my life, unless I buy something."0
