  • well I had big plans for matched betting today but my bank has decided the payments to bookies must be fraudulent and has locked my account! Nice to know they are vigilant but a little frustrating!!!!

    So it's alright for Them to gamble with your money, but not for you to eh ? :rotfl:

    Hi all

    not made any money as of yet so I have done a action plan that I need to complete by Sunday:

    SB points - 350 = Got 20 today
    Surveys - 21 = done 6 today
    Sort some books out other than Ebay
    Put only new things on Ebay
    Look at reopening old survey sites

    If I write it down on here I have to do it

    hope everyone has a good Monday

    Just make people who use Shopprize aware that I've had my account suspended. For uploading duplicate receipts... these would receipts from the same shop three weeks running. Normal weekly shop receipts. Not for the same amount, or on the same day but the same shops repeatedly. :(

    They said if I abided by the rules they'd reopen my account but I tyhought I had been!

    Not a happy chicken.

    Talking about chickens I need one bleeping egg on every single TCB egg hunt! Like that's going to happen.

    Nothing to declare as yet. O/D still looking rather death's doorish.

    Hi everyone

    Does anyone here use Shopmium? Think it is like checkoutsmart etc. Saw ad on Facebook and I was just about to sign up but it asks if I have a referral code. Had a look on forum but can't see a referral thread so thought I would check here before signing up

    Sharon x

    Yes I do. Signed up other day and haven't had time to check referral board.

    Just under £100 made on 'Bay today (have to work out fees though :mad:). Posted three parcels this afternoon and have another three to organise and send tomorrow. Have found that fixed pricing works better than auctions - wasn't like that in my day. How times have changed :D

    Oooh that's worth knowing - I read in a couple of places that credit wasn't an issue... Thanks :)

    Ok i admit I played with matchbetting last summer. First thing, don't use your usual bank for it, they think you are moneylaundering and get all a%*al about it. Open a basic account with debit card and use that. It is better to be kept separate because if anyone queried you can show it is bookies bets. Don't use pp too much as they will fo same and close you for mobey laundering.

    I use one basic account a lot of my pp transfers, into not so much out. Did ms with said bank and they had my statements and said awful lot off pp and i said yes I sell my old items on eBay and transfer funds to this account for savings. So yep they do take notice of activity on account

    Yes someone suggested to me to fix iten sell everything and include pandp in price. They swore it worked for them. And sometimes it does for me. Think most of my sales are buyitnow.

    Well done amazing start to month.
