    haha bob you spoke too soon!
    taxi you need to make an app with dentist then you have to go!
    it will only get worse and you will end up in hosp as a day patient as your too much of baby to let them yank it out so you will have to go to sleep while they do it
    erm i heard thats what can happen err it wasnt me:o
    im glad you said about doing your challenge as im not very good with figures but i thought i figured from your sig that you had cleared 20k but i wasnt sure if you were counting down!
    god i do ramble when im tired lol g'night xx
    I am not bossy I just have better ideas:p

    Afternoon everyone!!!
    I am not an happy bunny....since 6.30am I have been raging....logged on to my banking (as you do) only to find they'd lowered my o/d to £300....I thought this was sorted a few weeks ago as I spoke to somebody and they agreed to put it back up to £3000(it was £5000)...so imagine my shock and horror this morning....well I called them and got nowhere so phoned a manager and got nowhere...so up yours HALIFAX....
    It couldn't have come at a worse time as all my bills are due out end of next week nearly £2000....I only have £800 in the bank at the moment.
    Today I've paid £129.50 cash for DH crb and badge and £50 deposit cash for my pits test....£188 odds had to use CC for having radio/meter fitted!!!!!
    To say this is a shock is an understatement.From tomorrow DH and I will not see each other for a month as we are working back to back shifts 6-6 each...
    DD has just popped in back soon xx

    Right I'm back...Thanks everyone..there doesn't seem to be anything they can do!!!!!...I'm a good customer never had a bank charge ever and been with them 11 years.It feels like a kick in the teeth...the reason why they did it was because I hardly use it..their words not mine!!!!!!!
    I cannot change accounts at the minute as my DDs are due out and I don't want to have them cocked up....so as soon as I have a couple of months worth of bill payments in there then I'm off.
    so there will be no dentist this month as I am not even food shopping...only bread and milk when needed.I have £100 cash sat here so will put £25 to that on wednesday and that will be the pits paid for.
    My DDs come out at all times of the month so I've wrote a list out of what and when and will keep an extra close eye on them.
    Today we both signed off our nvq/btec thingies...had the radio fitted....spent loads of time on the phone...spent ages at licensing sorting out badges and pits.
    I've booked it for late weds so DH can take it and I can drive the other taxi.
    Solicitor phoned to say that they've sent the £1500 to GMAC so will update that when they receive it.
    Think thats enough rambling x
