  • Morning and Happy Monday, Inset day for the kids so they were happy :)

    Friday and the weekend were a bit of a washout for me, I had a really heavy cold that totally wiped me out. I feel much better today but still rather bunged up.

    CC's have been paid and the washer is now fully paid off, I've just residual bits on the BC to get rid of, they will be gone at the end of November. Signature has been updated.

    I had confirmation through from PB that my £11.25 withdrawal is being processed, this will go off the BC too.

    Brought my lunch with me today but forgot I bought something on Friday for lunch today, so I'll have that and save what I brought in for tomorrow.

    5 weeks to payday....eurgh!!!!
  • I had confirmation through from PB that my £11.25 withdrawal is being processed, this will go off the BC too.

    I checked the minimum payment on the LC and it was more than what I initially paid, despite being 0% interest, so I have paid the £11.25 off it instead on top of the payment I made.
  • Morning,

    Dark, wet and miserable morning today, on the plus side the motorway was quiet for a change.

    I went through and adjusted figures on my spreadsheet yesterday to get some idea of where we will be come the new year. The LC will be sub £10K and the MBNA will be just above £5K, I'm hoping that the MBNA will be below that but at the moment I can't see that happening but being close will be good enough for me.

    Although I've not completed my 218 list, I am quite happy with how this year has gone and I think I will try again next year with my list :)

    The kids school had a spooky bake off today, the winner gets 20 house points and those that took the time to enter get 10 points, so DD has done a Frankenstein cake, ok it's not the best looking one and I seriously doubt she'll win but she's taken the time to have a go.

    Bank account has been checked, nothing to move over money wise yet.

  • Morning and Happy Halloween,

    DH has his exit interview this morning and he has his IT one on Friday...things are getting rather real for him now and I think he's getting cold feet about the whole thing. Personally I think it's for the best despite that he will lose regular commission and some friends.

    Checked the bank account this morning and we got a partial transfer fee refund on the LC card of £160, which means that the card is now under £10K mark :D, so that was a nice surprise and my signature has been updated to match.
  • Hmm, so Opinion Outpost terminated my membership as I was trying to withdraw my points to PayPal? I've emailed them, so will see what they say :mad:

    Hope they sort it for you!
  • Always nerve wracking leaving a job but I'm sure dh will be fine after a few days.

    Hope you get OO sorted, they're usually quite good it happened to me once for no reason and they quickly reinstated it.

    Good news on the rebate to card and hope the PPI claim is successful for you.

  • I feel for hubby. It is hard making the move. I'm sure he'll settle soon :)
