    Hello everyone, hope you are all well.

    Can I ask a quick question please?
    my razor shop on Sunday was my first ever click n collect.
    I claimed the apg on Monday and I know it says on the website that it can take iup to a week for it to appear in your account, is that normally the case?

    Does the mail ey just appear in your account or do they send you a code to enter?
    sorry for all the questions but I really don't have a clue!

    Thank you:o
    It appears in your account. Used to always be a Tuesday.

    I am back, no not skiving, fully finished for the day and suitably all done in :)

    On the good news front - I was just checking the calendar as a big bill was due shortly in March as I though but in May - OK, it still needs paying and its not going to earn much extra interest in 2 months but at least the excel graph wont take a dive just yet.

    I also did a bank switch last month, it was an old Nationwide account I had for a year with an associated Flexclusive 5% saver account but once that matured there was no reason to keep it. I'd set up a couple of the Mr !!!!!! saver accounts in readiness and put in £24 to cover a years DDs. Then in the weekly MSE newsletter it announced that TSB had again started their switch incentive so I was all ready to go, very easy to do online.
    It went through at the start of February and the DDs worked as normal. I then realised that the new TSB classic plus needed to be a joint account but this cant be done online. Our local TSB only has one person who can do the paperwork to change accounts to joint accounts and they dont work full days. It took 10 days to get an appointment late enough in the day for OH :( - just after lunch on a Friday.
    So then once that had been done and we both had cards and pins I could set up a new monthly saver, make the account paperless, set up standing orders going in and out. A bit of a faff and quite a long process but at least it was done and we get 5% on contactless purchases up to £100 up until I think July (have to check this)
    Just checked now and the switch incentive of £125 has been added already :T - various wedding related expenses this month so it will be useful.

    Even better I got 9 old moult on Saturday for q clicksnappy which didn't track so I re uploaded and sent them a message on Sunday.
    I didn't hold out much hope so these have been sat in a bag ready to be returned but finally I got a reply today and £13.50 is tracking :T - not doing the happy dance until I can finally withdraw though :)

    I reckon it takes at least a days work every 2/3 weeks to ensure that all the relevant bank accounts are in place and money moved to maximise interest/ incentives, which is ok for me as a riterated person :)

    I haven't read back properly yet so haven't read all about the Ariel.
    I'm reading backwards (seemed like a good idea at the time lol) so haven't got as far as Ariel yet!!!
    Hi Tinasmum I'm never sure whether to read forards or backwards, but I think as long as we are here it doesn't matter, . If you don't check back and something comes up you don't understand you can always ask a question or 'search thread'

    Afternoon all, hope the elite are well. XXX

    Did a sharpie shop today all was well , actually got 2 of the 8 ordered. Sadly got the dreaded £100 message .:o:rotfl:


    Oh dear!!
    I myself are concerned with this, if you go over the £100 can you then resubmit it again the following month?
    Are we calendar month or rolling month?

    Aj or tweets, I've never heard of meetmybrand and google search result comes up: Forbidden. You don't have permission to access / on this server

    Do you have a link please? and thank you :D

    Don't know if tweets has replied and I'm now catching up. Meet Our Brands is Mars Petcare, Pedigree pet foods. There isn't a link that I can see, it was something I signed up to last year and haven't seen a link since, sorry xx
    There's no place like home :)

    Feeling down? Weak in body? Makes no difference to me, I think of you all when I'm sitting quietly.

    Hugs and healing thoughts are always going your way.
