    Now its just waiting to spend them in the double up. hopefully going to get the grandkids clothes sorted for Christmas/

    Thank you for all your ideas on money laundering:rotfl:

    Just want to also say a big thank you to Say no to credit cards......every time I think of you I want to call you "I can't believe it's not butter".....sorry...I don't know how my brain works sometimes:rotfl:

    A lot of folk have benefitted from your posts this weekend:T:T

    You are a star:)


    If you have bags of £1 coins might be worth asking local hairdressers / coffee shops etc if they would like to swap them for notes, as most businesses have to pay to get change at their banks

    Thank you curlgirl:T
    There's also some old pound coins in amongst them too:o

    It's my mission this week to get it all changed into notes. I'll let you know how I get on.

    I'm trying to declutter and it's taking ages :o

    TM keep them separate as they weigh different on the scales, when/if you take them to your Bank, Building Society or Post Office :)

    Sorry, I don't know but assumed that that it was device specific after they implemented the additional checks?

    I do know with 02 I have had issues with supposedly used N3ro codes, despite all devices and SIMs being unique :o. We had two rejected this week when we went - very embarrassing/annoying. We have the active SIMs, so it is not as if the number has been reissued :(.
